There was an apocalypse, so there were are regions of the USA that aren't inhabitable now (from my understanding). So I thought District 12 was around Tennessee/KY/WV and District 1 was CA/Oregon/WA area. Though it wouldn't surprise me if it was really Nevada/Utah/Colorado if CA fell into the ocean by then.
Cacophony. That's pretty. What's it mean?

I have to say, as exploitative as the subject matter is, the remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre was beautifully filmed. And if Matt Bomer still looked like he did in that movie I'd be drooling over him every week with the White Collar fans.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow. I think he looks so much better now.

somebody on lj made a map of how they perceived Panem based on the text we got. it's extremely specific and kind of made my head hurt, but let me see if i can dig it up.
aha! here it is!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
so that isn't too far (generally) from what I was thinking, but I'm pretty sure, 1 is next to 2.

Because books.
I need to read that whole post, tiggy. Thank you!
Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of the remakes I haven't seen, but I sort of can't imagine Bomer looking any better than he looks to me on White Collar.

one is next to two on that map, le nub.
you're welcome, Amy!! it's extremely in-depth. i really need to re-read the books and pay more attention to all the details. the first time i read them, i flew through them. so i'm sure i missed a lot.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
tiggy, am I misreading the map? it looks like 2 is between 6 and 9. 3 is next to 1.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That's an imported map to which the authors are reacting. Scroll down further, their final design is at the bottom.
