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.
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.
CINNA IS THE BEST.
Re:
turning Katniss into a mockingjay.
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?
Not having read any of the books, but having read the white font:
Spartacus!
I don't want to do anything else but finish
Catching Fire.
GODDAMMIT. I am so worried for everyone. The
arena is WATER?? Do they just want everyone to drown?
WTF.
it's almost as fun to read your reaction as it is to read it for the first time, P-C.
Personally, I'm surprised that
the Gamemakers didn't rig Katniss's platform to "accidentally" blow up.
P-C, I JUST got there! I took it to read during Sara's swimming lesson, and once again was almost in tears right there on the pool desk with the reveal of
the transforming wedding dress and Peeta ad libbing Kat's pregnancy
.
These books are going to kill me.
