Will The Hunger Games Last?

The Hunger Games is undoubtedly, the most popular..."young adult" (I still hate that phrase) book/film series out there, so many have tried to be the next big thing, Divergent, Maze Runner, Mortal Instruments, The Host, okay we've had quite a few, but i don't think it can be argued that Hunger Games is the most successful of them all. But that raises the question, will The Hunger Games last? Harry Potter finished nearly half a decade ago and people still love it. Twilight, however, even though people still remember, who gives a crap about it? The fans grew up and realised it sucked, even the haters think it's old to make fun of it at this point, let's be honest, it's dead in the water. But then there's The Hunger Games, it has a strong fanbase just like Twilight, but not as strong as Harry Potter, and it doesn't have a very large hater group, people seem to be either in love with this franchise or just think it's okay. But Lionsgate seem to be trying so hard to keep this franchise alive after the final film, a set tour, live play, basically trying to do what Harry Potter has been doing, except Hunger Games doesn't have as strong of a fanbase so is it going to work?

I should say that if Hunger Games survives the long run then I'd be fine with that, i quite enjoy these movies, but i just don't know if they have the ever lasting impact. I mean they don't have any bad morals or implications like Twilight did that caused the fanbase to grow up and turn their back on it, but is there enough here for people to enjoy it once they leave the demographic it appeals to? I'll be honest, I have no idea, it's sort of the middle child amongst this trend of..."young adult" franchises. When this trend is dead, will The Hunger Games die with it? Who knows. I personally feel like it might be. While I do like the films and books, i don't think there's enough content here to last through the ages, nothing in here that makes it dated, but nothing that i can't not imagine someone 5 years later and going "what else is new?".
