[DANEYAL]

It seems like a little 'changeover', the film industry has preferred a .movie domain over a dot com. The latest news we see in this perspective is the launch of TheHungerGames.movie by the Hunger Games Franchise.
Is it like Ditching Dot com, or a refreshing change from the entertainment industry or just a matter of choice?

Add the Hunger Games to the growing list of entertainment industry franchises that are leaving the dot-com domain name behind.

The popular movie series became the first to utilize the dot-movie domain on June 9 when it released its new website,TheHungerGames.movie.

It's not the only entertainment franchise making use of a non-dot-com domain name, though. Focus Features is using Outlive.life as the website to promote its movie "Selfless," and Lady Gaga registered a non-dot-com domain for her foundation's website:BornThisWay.foundation.

Advice: Please do not register upcoming movie names @ .movie extension. Anything Trademark can add to legal woes.

Not even newsworthy for CNBC, how much did they pay them to write the article.

Why'd you clip your post? I thought it was good.

When 8 paragraphs out of 12 is dedicated to Donuts and their interests, I think we can qualify it as a press release.

Wishful thinking. If they could use the .com, they would. More like settling for something else. The .com is being used, thehungergames.com redirects to this page - http://www.scholastic.com/thehungergames/
