  1. Hello there :)

     

    I'm new to these forums and this is my first topic. I apologize if this thread doesn't belong in this particular subforum - it just said that you could ask questions about general movie stuff here, so that's why I chose it.

     

    I'm hoping that some of you can help me out. I'm actually writing an assignment on The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (I'm a huge fan). It has to do with the concept of "hype" and in this connection I need some stats or facts about the social media buzz that surrounds/surrounded The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.

     

    For example, this article http://blogs.technet.com/b/openness/archive/2013/11/27/internet-explorer-hunger-games-lionsgate-fan-web-experience.aspx states the following:

     

    "If you can’t get enough of The Hunger Games or simply wonder about the recording-breaking buzz this past weekend"

     

    "Part of what makes The Hunger Games experience so great is the devoted fan base, who have broken all sorts of social media records with their conversations about the beloved series."

     

    So I was hoping that some of you maybe knew what social media records are actually being referred to here? Or if you just know of any facts or something that can help me prove that THG:CF is really popular with the social media?

     

    Thanks in advance for any help :)

  3. Hey, I'm new to this forum, so I don't know if this is the appropriate place to ask this - I apologize if it isn't:

     

    Is there an easy way to check how much is grossed yearly at the worldwide box office combined for all movies?

     

    I can find for domestic, but I can't find for worldwide - it only tells me what movie was the top grossing movie of that year, it doesn't tell me the combined gross of all movies released worldwide in that year.

     

    Also, another question: I've suddenly started receiving a lot of spam after having joined this site - how do I stop this? :P
