I do all my reading on the phone or tab with the Kindle app now, it's so easy. Don't need a lamp and I can easily read with one hand. Very handy when I'm up in the dark feeding DD!
Lenny Kravitz was on Ellen the other day, he looks fantastic as Cinna. I can't imagine anyone but him in that role, and Woody Harrelson and Donald Sutherland seem so perfect for Haymitch and Snow. I think it's great reading the books and knowing what the movie characters look like, I have them in my head so I won't be disappointed when the movie comes out.
I thought I had posted in here but appears not - I am listening to the series on audiobooks currently almost at the end of Catching Fire - I love it, can't wait for it to be on at the cinema. Rarely go with DH these days as times are just inconvenient but will be making the effort for this one - he was the one who put me on to it - not sure where he heard of it from. After film I will read the books (although the audiobooks are unabridged still will be nice to read it).
I read a newspaper piece somewhere that described it as "contestants take place in a reality TV show" - it had never occurred to me before is like a reality TV show - seems funny playing that angle because really is not like that at all. Have seen the actress who is playing Katniss in the X-Men movie and also in The Hamster with Mel Gibson and think she will work quite well. Stanley Tucci is always good and can see him as Caesar.
Oh I love the Hunger Games wiki - I am always forgetting things and I can look it up on there e.g. yesterday I needed to look up "Morphlings"
To be honest I hadn't heard much about it. I have NO idea what the books are about but on all of your glowing reviews, I have just downloaded onto my Kindle.
I went last night to the movies, kids were so well behaved, mums n bubs sessions pffft
Anyway, i had hardly heard anything about it and we went to see it on a whim.
I really enjoyed it and now I am starting the books as I must know what happens!
