Amy, he's still in the first book, so he's completely safe to read.
Oh, DUH. I wasn't even thinking.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I still think Terry O'Quinn would make a fabulous Haymitch.
as for Peeta, i imagined the oldest brother from the Narnia movies.
Katniss is totally Lyndsy Fonseca.

I'm right there with you on Lyndsy Fonseca, tiggy! She looks really similar to how I pictured her when I first read the books, and Nikita has proven she can be badass!
I'm really worried about the casting. That could really make or break the movie.
RDJ for Haymitch seems too... in shape.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I still think Terry O'Quinn would make a fabulous Haymitch.
Oh. Holy cow. WAY better than W.C. Fields! But too old, from the sounds of it.

I still want Hugh Laurie as Haymitch.

Oh god, that's a cool idea. Although I do think tiggy has a good idea with Terry O'Quinn. I don't think he necessarily looks as old as he is.

I can't take credit for the idea. I read it somewhere, maybe EW.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

This is who I have in my head. Less corpulent, but kind of dissolute and broken and bitter. Laurie a la House.
I really wanted Haymitch in the Quarter Quell and was wee bit disappointed it was Peeta again.

exactly!! i think Kaya is way to waif-like. plus, i don't think she's that great of an actress.
Oh. Holy cow. WAY better than W.C. Fields! But too old, from the sounds of it.
possibly! when they de-aged him for scenes in Lost, i was pretty impressed. i think he could pull off younger than he is. plus, like someone else said, 41 years old from District 12 wouldn't necessarily look like our version of a 41 year old.

Yes, with District 12 and years of hard drinking, I expect him to look years older than what I would think of as 41.
