Haymitch is Cast for The Hunger Games!!


 Well, I know that most of the blogging/twitter world has already heard this news, but this is for all my friends who find out Hunger Games news from my blog :D 

According to EW Woody Harrelson is going to be Haymitch.  I tried to find the most Haymitch-ish picture to post for him because I'm having a hard time seeing him in the role.  I mean he can definitely play a drunk, but I guess I see Haymitch as older and more.....crotchety?  Or something.  I think this is like almost every other person they've picked, it's not who I would choose, but it might work.

And in case you missed it earlier, they also picked Caesar Flickerman, the host of The Hunger Games.  (The one who talks to all the contestants and has such a good re pore with Peeta.)  Stanley Tucci will be playing this part, and I think he may be my favorite pick so far.  He seems perfect to me!  (Thanks, Leah, for the heads up on that one).

If you missed some of the other cast names, you can check them out here.

  3. I love Woody so I'm sooo super excited for this! I always thought of Haymitch and broken down so much that he SEEMED older. If that makes sense? I think Woody will be PERFECT! I'm geeked for this!

  4. I agree, Tucci is absolutely perfect and I had my qualms with Harrelson, but now I think he can pull off Haymitch.

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

  Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio  So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this.  I guess I never posted it, because I was just so angry and disappointed.  Plus, I think I had talked so much about it, that I was sick of talking about it.  And also, I feel like there were so many things that bothered me that I couldn't get it all down.  But, I thought it might be fun to post this, and see if anyone is interested in it.  So, here are my bitter and resentful thoughts on Mockingjay! :P 8-30-2010 *spoilers galore* After reading Mockingjay all day on Tuesday, I left Wednesday morning to go on vacation for my anniversary.  All I could think about was Mockingjay.  You might think that's a good sign, like it was so well done that I couldn't forget about it.  But, for me, it wasn't.  I was so disappointed in this book.  Honestly, if I hadn't loved the first two books so much, I pr...
