It's one of those movies I put on a lot when I'm tired or ill or want something to play in the background while doing something boring. I just really enjoy it.<br /><br />I usually try to see books and movies as completely separate entities. It helps I think if you haven't read the book too soon before seeing the movie!Lantahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09682115425690670590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997174738664182569.post-66724357227098018642011-04-12T17:53:39.243-07:002011-04-12T17:53:39.243-07:00Well, movies tend to never be as good as the books...Well, movies tend to never be as good as the books, there is just something missing from them. I'm not that worried about the script because susanne collins helped write it so it should be good. <br />Casting wise, Josh Hutcherson was the one I was most happy with and that video made me like him more, not my top for peeta but I'm sure he'll do great. Jennifer Lawrence doesn't look at all what I wanted, but I know she can act so I'm hoping sure do fine. <br />But Liam Hemsworth?...he doesn't look right and I don't think he can act and I'm kinda judging him for dating miley cyrus. eh well maybe he'll surprise me. I mean the casting directors had to see something in himJerbyJuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05059606215561821502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997174738664182569.post-81029424085196330452011-04-11T16:29:33.415-07:002011-04-11T16:29:33.415-07:00Ok ok, I'm slowly liking Josh.

And I'm actually okay with when movies don't try to follow the books play by play. I know it's not a movie, but I love that Vampire Diaries is COMPLETELY different from the books, and it's even better than the books. So to me it's not the end of the world that Katniss, Peeta, and Gale don't look exactly like my imagination, as long as they portray their characters well, I'm okay with them :) Haha sorry this is such a long commentApril Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16856680745483238756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997174738664182569.post-46323731572046846102011-04-09T14:24:13.467-07:002011-04-09T14:24:13.467-07:00I like them but the books are always betterI like them but the books are always bettervampireprincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01626125296291927284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-997174738664182569.post-14551457408384897802011-04-09T12:23:59.836-07:002011-04-09T12:23:59.836-07:00Oh, and I'm actually a lot happier with Josh H...Oh, and I'm actually a lot happier with Josh Hutcherson than I am with Gale or Katniss.
