Not even joking when I say that I scream this at people on the regular.

I’m in a weight loss competition at work and our team is named The Hungah Games.

I made this to mark the start of the contest. Yet again: get in line, dudes.

It would be so easy to mock this person for making crocheted Hunger Games dolls, but the detail on these things is spectacular.

Seems like some people aren’t happy about Sam Claflin being cast as Finnick in Catching Fire. Maybe this photo will help the doubters?

Rumors are swirling about Sam Claflin being cast as Finnick for Catching Fire. Since it’s from a source like Variety, I would expect an official casting announcement in the next two days.

Avengers Poised to Open Higher Than Hunger Games
Five months into the year, and 2012 may be able to boast two record-breaking box office behemoths. Already, The Hunger Games opened last month to a stunning $152.5 million, and now tracking for The Avengers is so high ahead of its May 4 debut that the Hollywood Reporter is forecasting an opening weekend that surpasses that huge haul. If it manages to build on its interest and want-to-see factors, which are already higher than those tallied by Hunger Games this early in its prerelease, The Avengers could notch the second-highest opening weekend ever, and maybe even threaten the $169 million grossed by Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 in its first frame. All this, with The Dark Knight Rises yet to come! (Not to mention, y’know, Magic Mike.)

My box office-stalking nerd emerged again this morning and reminded me of the amazing crop of 2012 films.

By suggesting that Katniss occupied feminine and masculine positions (and is therefore not locked into either), I was inching toward the idea that gender absolutes are less confusing than inapt. I mean, is killing masculine? Is nurturing feminine? Katniss nurtures and she kills, and she does both extremely well. Katniss is a fantasy figure, but partly what makes her powerful — and, I suspect, what makes her so important to a lot of girls and women — is that she’s one of the truest feeling, most complex female characters to hit American movies in a while. She isn’t passive, she isn’t weak, and she isn’t some random girl. She’s active, she’s strong and she’s the girl who motivates the story.

Boom goes the dynamite (at the food supply near the Cornucopia).
