Hey, me too! :D My thoughts are OH MAN JENNIFER LAWRENCE!!!, basically. And I agree, it's a very visual movie which is lovely because you get to experience that aspect of the story in a new way, but sometimes I thought it kind of hindered the emotional impact, sort of? IDK IDK, TOO MANY THOUGHTS. Basically it boils down to me loving the book too hard to ever really be fully satisfied with the movie (on account of how powerful Katniss' POV is, probably), but I knew that going in and I still enjoyed it immensely.

ALSO THE CASTING. It was great! No character stuck out as wrong to me, even if they weren't always how I'd imagined them! And I adored Effie, and Haymitch was great! Also JENNIFER LAWRENCE!!! Have you seen Winter's Bone? She was great in Winter's Bone! Like so great idek what to do with myself!

AND RUE WAS SO PERFECT AND I CRIED SO HARD WHEN SHE DIED AND I LOVED HOW BROKEN KATNISS WAS AFTER THAT SCENE, JUST UGH. AMAZING.

I could probably go on for like five more hours but I WILL NOT because I love you, and also because sleep. :D?
