Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

And yet - what an unexpected and useful hack. (So to speak.)

I didn't know that Jupiter Jones was already a character. I think it's an excellent comic book name. Also totally agree that it is set up for a sequel.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Finally saw Mockingjay. I liked it, but I kept waiting for moments from the trailers to appear. There were a couple that didn't and I wonder if they are on the cutting room floor.

The one that comes most to mind is a scene with Peeta and President Snow facing each other both dressed in white.

Also, how was the rose in the vase still fresh? Somehow I am missing the significance of the white roses.

I hate when scenes in the trailers aren't in the movie.

The white roses are a signature symbol of President Snow. Towards the end of the movie you find out he wears them all the time to cover up the smell of blood from mouthsores. The mouthsores are caused by the antidote to the poison he uses to kill his opponents (he eats/drinks the same thing as them to lull them).

The roses in Victory Village were a taunt to Katniss. Basically saying she isn't safe anywhere; he's got spies/people everywhere.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And either he has a magic rose maker, or someone coming by regularly to make sure there's at least one fresh rose there.

Hey. New board.

I think the book mentioned something about roses genetically altered to last a very long time but I could be making that mupm

That's what I was wondering about.

I saw Jupiter Ascending last night. Man, were those some horrible performances, though Nikki Amuka-Bird and Channing Tatum's torso acquitted themselves well.

That's who that is! What a cool name.

Ah and I saw her most likely in Torchwood and Luther. (Possibly Survivors and MI-5 - although I'm not sure I saw as much as 2 seasons of Survivors. . . if that show is the one I'm thinking it is.)

She was just magnetic. I was a lot more worried about her and her crew on their police cruiser than I was about Jackie and Ernest J. Keebler when everything was falling apart/blowing up on Jupiter.
