Oh man! I hate tragedies, I'm like bac and prefer the happily ever afters. I hate it when characters I've come to love die (that happened too many times in HP!) I guess it should be kind of expected in this series, but I seriously have come to love Peeta and I've decided that I'm Team Peeta. I should try to get some of my friends to read these books so I can have someone to discuss them with, that would be nice.

Thats funny about your sister Jenna. It's definitely worth buying CF! I could probably read them again, even though I just did. :mrgreen:

Okay, so what would you guys think of Kaya Scodelario for Katniss?
She's 17, and so far although she's only acted in about 4 things, they've all been action, and she was in a British series called Skins.
Here is a pic of her a little more nicely put together. The other one is very Katniss-y though.

Ooh, I like her, and if he was a little older, he'd be a good Gale...

I dunno about Peeta though...

I have never heard of her, but she looks the part.

I also like the guy Willowtree, who is he? Too bad he isn't older. I wonder if it is this guy Logan Lerman? He is 18 this month.

I could see Logan Lerman playing Gale. He's kind of how I pictured him.

But I don't know about Kaya Scodelario, she's not quite how I picutured Katniss. But then again when it comes to book characters to movies who ever is? She could maybe.......

isn't it crazy when actors play characters that are younger them, especially when they're like 5+yrs? like on tv there's 30 somethngs playing teenagers, crazy!

*jumps up and down in excitement* Yes, we have a name!!! I be-eth happy! Now I must inform mah friends.

Mockingjay is an interesting title. Picked for obvious reasons from past books, what do you think it might represent in this next one?
Judging by Katniss's last dress, I'm thinking the mockingjay will somehow theoretically become a phoenix. Their world will go up in flames of rebellion. I'm rooting for more kick backside fight scenes.
