The deluge of plagiarism topics has gotten out of hand.

After seeing Part 1, I think it is reasonable to assume that some of those scenes might be replicated for the Americans, if not all together cut. For instance, I don't think we will have Ai or anyone replacing her (Delly in the Collin's rip). I expect them to combine some of those Noriko scenes. One conversation with Shuya and Noriko face to face, where she's analyzing him, and (hopefully) the cafeteria conversation, but that's it. In fact, I think someone mentioned how that last Noriko scene of him thrashing in the movie was probably replacing the fake wig freak out.

I also think their training scenes will be truncated. While that's important to make it believable (plus, movie Anti-terror squad leader did say she wasn't going to put untrained civilians in the field), I don't know if they will have too much focus on training. The "following directions" point was reference in Part 1...but does that really have an effect once they are at the Capitol? He takes control and does her own thing anyway, unless I'm forgotten something off the top of my head? If it doesn't, I'm not sure how much of that they will keep.

About the Chigusa and Shuya kiss; I actually think it wouldn't be bad if they kept it, but I don't know if I like how the movies are handling their situation, so I don't know how effective it will be. (I don't mind the downplaying, but then I don't feel a big connection between movie Chigusa/Shuya, so it seems kind of thrown in there when it does happen). That whole kissing drunk boys thing won't be in there, but showing his loss/desperation may be...

While I think the assault on the Capitol will take a large part of the film, I don't think it will be as big as in BR2's the previous games...and I think we already know they combined/changed some of the deaths.

I agree. I think it must be a bunch of high school kids who are pissed because they got busted for plagiarism.

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more.

I think IMDB ought to charge users who clutter up their servers with multiple copies of the same message. That would probably stop the deluge, particular because I think a lot of the trolls are the same people under multiple names.

Boy, you are not kidding.

I just hopped on over to this board tonight & posts about BR and plagiarism are all over the place.

Funny...having read some of those redundant posts, saying the same thing over & over again...if they truly are from different users, are they now plagiarizing each other? -- that would be ironic LOL 

In any event, I wish they would go on over to a BR message board at this point if they wish to continue to post about *that* movie.

The attempted BR product placement on these threads is getting a bit tiresome 

It's refreshing when someone posts something about The Hunger Games that isn't about plagiarism or Battle Royale.
