Just got the email of this. Stupid excited. But I'm kind of a dork and I'm a girl who thinks she is still 12, so I would be.

I like it! I'm also extremely excited for the Mockingjay movies.
Some folks me want to smack them though with their repeated comments of 'oh, how will they ever expand the story to fit two movies?!' Oh, I don't know.... maybe show stuff that Katniss isn't privy to/present for, like they did in the first two?! /endrant

Or how about not cutting out parts that they deem irrelevant but are actually quite important... /endmyrant

^This. My man beef with Catching Fire was all the stuff that was left out like background on the other Victors, how Haymitch won, etc.

I'm only one of those three things (Kind of a dork), but I'm excited for this as well. I enjoyed the books and so far I've thought the movies have done a really nice job.
Also, does anyone know if Phillip Seymour Hoffman had finished his part or not? I never heard anything about it when he died, and I always felt like it would be kind of a heel thing to ask "So do we still get the movie?" But enough time has passed so...anyone know?
I very much prefer the new trend of stretching it into more than one movie. Makes me wish they'd done that for all of the Harry potter books...at least as a special edition. A couple of those movies cut so much they felt more like trailers for the story than an actual attempt to tell the story. How do people who haven't read the books even follow that?
These books have plenty to fill that amount of time in my opinion.

This year my daughter turned 12 and is a BIG fan of the books and films.
A quick card I did for her
Seeing this in the theater on opening night will be mandatory for us. I'm hoping she doesn't find out that there is a Hunger Games marathon tomorrow ending with a showing of the Mocking Jay, I don't think I can handle 9 hours in a theater anymore. :lol (Maybe for the SW OT )

I have really high hopes for this one. They've done a pretty solid job with the movie adaptions so far.

We just got home from seeing it. I thought it was great. Josh Hutcherson and Jennifer Lawrence do a fantastic job.
I gotta admit, after the hatchet job they did on the first one, Mockingjay Pat 1 was excellent. I freely admit to having tears in my eyes when they took out the hydroelectric dam. It was very reminiscent of PotC 3 at the beginning with those people defiantly singing, knowing that they were marching straight to their deaths.

What a great movie. As always Jennifer Lawrence did a great job.. The did a good job taking stuff from the book and putting it on screen.

This was a really good flick, I liked it better than part 2, and though I haven't read the books my daughter thought the story was handled better in the film. I haven't been impressed with Josh Hutcherson in the past, but he nailed the part this time. This will be on the BR shelf as soon as its available. :thumbsup

Not easy, but possible!
My daughter wants one as well, but I'm not about to make a custom leather for her until she stops growing. Similar threads
