Yes.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I have got to make Pete commit to a date for us to go to L.A./Pasadena for the LACMA exhibit. Because oh yes, I will see it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Jilli, the only way I'd be surer of that would be if the exhibit was in Disneyland's haunted house.

If that were the case, then I finally would carry out my threat to move into the place.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why does Netflix recommend I Love You Philip Morris to me after I add Tron: Legacy to my queue? I mean, I rented it too, but it's weird.

Because books.
Lionsgate to make FOUR movies out of the Hunger Games.
There are only three books. And the last one isn't three thousand pages long like Deathly Hallows was.

I can see rearranging them though because of how the second one ends (and how complicated the third one gets).

Because books.
I can see rearranging, but adding a whole extra movie? There's a lot in the beginning of Catching Fire you could (and probably should) zip over, when you're telling it visually.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't know, I read them all in a rush and all three kind of blur together, cutting them up a little differently seems like it could work.

It might work, Suzanne Collins wrote the script so they could move some things around a bit, it might work. I worry that we will get one whole movie of just backstory - that would be sorta boring as you can show a lot of it in snippets or they will spend a whole movie on just the first 1/3 of Mockingjay.
