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."

Because books.

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.

I still want Hugh Laurie as Haymitch

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.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

She looks really similar to how I pictured her when I first read the books, and Nikita has proven she can be badass!

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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Mark reading the Hunger Games is almost as un-put-down-able as the actual books. I just got to his reading of the end of part 1 and had tears in my eyes again.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

CINNA IS THE BEST.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

CINNA IS THE BEST.

HE REALLY IS. I felt the whole time reading that were I to somehow end up living in the Capitol (not that I would EVER want to, the whole world in those books is just horrifying) that Cinna and I would be the very best of friends. He's awesome.

I am really hearting him for that. And I am very intrigued by the vocal, if sometimes subtle, rebellion, by all the victors. Until the interviews, it wasn't really clear they felt that way, but, man, they're ALL pretty pissed that they've been called back into the ring to die (and I wonder how many suspect that the Seventy-Fifth Annual Hunger Games are really the most elaborate assassination attempt since the Triwizard Tournament). WHAT IF THEY ALL JUST REFUSE TO KILL EACH OTHER??? How badass would it be if they all teamed up to take on the Capitol? Yeeeeah, maybe throwing together the best and strongest proven killers from your country wasn't the brightest idea, huh?
