Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhh!!!!!!!
Who me? Excited? No way!
As the title of this post suggest, this is the OFFICIAL trailer.
**choir of angels rejoice in song**
I shall not waste anymore words... below is the video.
Watch it! Watch it!
Feel free to comment on your thoughts.
I'm quiet excited, I really hope that this will be able to live up to the books, or at least not put people off from reading them.
click >>here<< to watch. Ah! the suspense!
I stand by my belief that if this movie disrupts the awesomeness of the book series in any way, any at all, I shall attack the producers with great vigor!

Hunger Games Character Posters
HOLY YES!
5 months guys, 5 more months until Hunger Games hits the theatres in America (not sure when that would be for Australia)
Now... yes, yes I'll hurry up and get to the damn point:
Several character posters have been revealed.
Hahaha! **fist punch**
Of course, there is Katniss, Peeta and Gale.
BUT there's also Cato, Rue, Haymitch, Cinna and Effie
What can I say... Well, I already knew what Katniss, Gale and Peeta would look like from the movie casting; though it's good to see them all "made up".
I really don’t like the character chosen to play Peeta. He looks so....Pssshhhh... Well, can't do anything about that but blog about it :) He just doesn't look like the Peeta I envisioned, dang it!
Gale, hmmm... he's alright, He looks quite tense in the poster or perhaps urgent or confused??? anyways the facial expression says a thousand words. I find the poster of him a little too airbrushed but meh. :) Still... he's cool. TEAM GALE!!!!
Katniss, been there done that. She looks great, almost like the Katniss I imagined... but let's see how she can act. **dun dun dun**
Now. Here's where it get's interesting.
Cato... Well, I when I read the book, I imagined him far more lynx-eyed, crafty and far more scheming as well as larger in size. He’s meant to be their, (Katniss and Peeta’s) fiercest opponent but he looks a little tame to me, I must say, the actor playing Cato looks a bit like the one playing Peeta (can't be bothered to name names)
Rue... wow, I think the poster really captures her character, I really love her facial expression, it’s perfect; the ideal combination of sorrow and compassion! In the book, Rue was described to be brown skinned and haired, and she reminds Katniss of her sister Prim. I am going to be so, so sad when that scene happens.
Cinna... I never really imagined him much when reading, he was more of a flamboyant and passionate presence to me. But I love the gold liner :)
Effie... wow. She's definitely got spunk. She's pretty much dressed how I imagined, all feathers and bright assaulting colours. I love the facial expression on the poster, she looks a tad like a bird of prey zoning onto its target. The eyes are amazing, I think they are an excellent feature.
Now: Haymitch... WHAT IS THIS?!?! Geez, the man looks like something from the Lord of the Rings! I can't remember how he was described in the book (It's been a while) but I definitely didn't think he'd look like that. Maybe with shorter hair... I dunno... he's meant to be an alcoholic and very slightly pudgy etc... meh.
Overall. Very excited for the movie, it better be good or I can guarantee the producers will be getting a lot of hate mail... :P

OH MY GOSH!!! Hunger Games Trailer!!!
HUNGER GAMES MOVIE!!!! eeeeeeeeeeeee
Yes, in case you have been living in a hole for most of your life time, you'd be aware the action-packed, edge-of-you-seat, and downright addictive Hunger Games series, is being made into a movie. And guess what... The sneak peek trailer is out. **hyperventilate** aaaaaahhhh!!! I have dreamt of this day since I cried my heart out at the end of the series.
Yes, the sneak peek. **silently 'eeee's**
The actor chosen to play the role of Katniss is Jennifer Lawrence, hm... I haven't actually seen much of her acting (that translates to none at all, haven’t even heard of her), but judging from the sneak peek, she is goooood. Dang! She jumps over that log like it was nothing, that log would probably take me about 10 minutes to get over before promptly tripping and landing smack-bang on the ground. Lovely I know, gracefulness is something I lack severely. And I am impressed by her awesome arrow-drawing skills, loading a bow is super hard, trust me I’ve tried, it wasn't pretty. Yet another skill I lack. Yes, Jennifer does seem to fit Katniss's description (no blond hair or anything) and she's even got the trade mark braid!!! In terms of age.. hmm.... she'll pass.
Now, what you've all been putting up with my incessant chatter for... click >here< for the clip.
And may the odds be ever in your favour.

Recent Rise in Paranormal Activity
Yep. You've probably noticed it too...
The recent rise in paranormal obsessions!
First it was Harry Potter, then Twilight and now... well, now the movie producers are just making movies on about every paranormal/fantasy book they can get their hands on...
I mean seriously, isn't that a little desperate? They're bound to make a mistake and cut out some seriously vital parts from the books. And the characters will just completely ruin my mental imagary!
Aparently Fallen, Maximum Ride and now even the Mortal Instrument series are ALL being made into movies... I can't bare the thought that some of my favourite books will be played by unsuitable characters... my worse fear is that the movies will turn out like Twilight... The HORROR! Many people will then most likely judge the book because of the badly made movie and others will just be plain obsessed with the movie characters instead of actually imagining the characters for themselves!
It is rumored that the Fallen Movie is going to be made by Disney... NO NO NO!!! Disney... Well, actually I love disney movies, I just think they should stick to their genre: cartoon and kiddy stuff.
Even if they make it especially to target "teens" the characters will all be played by those that are under Disney's contract... for example the Jonas Brothers... **gasp of horror**
Miley Cyrus **kill me now**
and other highly unsuitable characters... i mean seriously can you imagine Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez as Luce?!?! Nope.. it's actually rather barf-worthy!!!
But of course... none of this is actually confirmed but I'll try find out if my sources are correct.. fingers crossed I'm wrong... :(

ooo.. i agree with the comments on the link above though... Alex Pettyfer would make an okay Daniel... but who would play Cam?
o well, i'll make up my dream cast in my head... :D
