Kurt, you might want to spoiler your last post.

I totally pictured Rue and Thresh being black. I'm not sure what I picture Cinna being but it didn't matter either way. Jennifer Lawrence pulled off the part of Catnis just fine but I pictured someone smaller and with a middle eastern or even latino look. |

I know nothing of the books and never heard of it. But maybe it's my age. The trailer I have seen makes no sense to me.

Finally got around to seeing this film this afternoon. It was good, but not great. Seems like it tried to do a bit too much. First half was a bit long, second half was a bit short, didn't come to any real conclusions either politically or personally for the characters. But it was well-done (although I'm not a fan of the shaky camera work). And Jennifer Lawrence is stunning. (Although probably too fat for Omaha.)

I went through the whole movie thinking, "My gosh, that man looks exactly like Lenny Kravitz." As we were walking out, I glanced up at the credits just as Kravitz's name came up. Surprised the hell out of me.

I think my favorite parts about it were Woody Harelson and Lenny Kravitzs characters. They were both basically mentors for Katniss. Hopefully they expand on those characters because they were great. Hated the shaky cam work. WTF? Maybe they were trying to disguise the violence to get a PG13? I'm still amazed that a book series and movie about kids trying to kill each other became this huge pop culture event. Heh.

probably not a spoiler, but I wouldn't want to wound any vaginas.
Spoiler!
Harrelson is always typecast, but he does it so damn well it is hilarious. Overall, the story is just not very believable, the action was meh, and there were several parts of the movie that were part of the books but were WTF moments without that explanation are just out of place. Jennifer Lawrence is epic hot and played the part well. The other kid, Peter, I think did OK. The rest were meh. It was just overall a bad movie. But it was better than I was expecting. |

Not sure if this has been posted yet but it is very relevant to my thoughts on this over hyped movie.
