Can they pull off this movie without screwing it up?

90%. I have a feeling that the movies will be nothing like the book, because from what I've seen so far, it looks SO different. But just because it's different doesn't mean it won't be AWESOME! I'm excited to see what they do with these movies!!!
90% Everyone felt like Mockingjay wasn't a good book and we all loved what Francis Lawrence did with Catching Fire and based on all the photos I have seen its obvious we are in good hands! I'm especially excited for Peetas freak out scene while they are on the mission and when the team breaks into the capitol to rescue Peeta & Johanna! The video from the rescue mission looked so COOL!
95% because since they are making it into 2 movies, I think they will be able to stick closer to the book that way.. like they did with Breaking Dawn.
95% - they did an excellent job with Catching Fire. The cast is phenomenal. I can't really think of any reason why it shouldn't be awesome.

I go with 70%. I think people are forgetting that they have already excluded some pretty important details. Who's to say that they won't continue that pattern with the rest of the series?
85% I think they will be great movies just there are a few things that will have to be left out because they were not shown or explained previously and those are some of my favorite bits about the book, they are what make it so amazing.
90% I liked Catching Fire. Of course it was not as good as the book but then I have to remember, NO movie ever does a book justice. Its just not the same. They aren't in the same category. So with that said, I have to rate it based on how good I think the movie will be knowing that it will fail the book in some way. I think they did the best they could in Catching Fire and it was good. And I think they will do the same thing in the Mockingjay.
78%. I don't think that they should have split it into two parts, for one thing. But I do like the previews, and the other movies have been pretty faithful adaptations for the most part.
95% due to the fact that the book wasn't as great as the first two and therefore there is much room for it to be improved upon.
i liked catching fire much more than i liked the first one - i felt like they stuck to the book more in #2 than #1. What i'm interested to see though is a new trailer. We saw the beginning ads for a long time (the posters) and have had the same teaser for 2+ months now it seems. i know that they have another 3 months until the movie comes out - i just feel like the current trailer that's in theaters isn't doing the movie any favors since it's dry and anti-climactic after the first 3 times you see it. i think that the movie itself will be good though - they've invested a lot.

70% and I don't think that is good enough. I feel like they might skip out little parts of the book as they feel it is not important but I feel like everything in this book counts towards the ending.
Hopefully splitting the book up will mean more details that are necessary will be in the movie. At least I hope...it's going to be hard to see the last movie, knowing it's the last movie!
I doubt it. Although basically I'm going to burn down the cinema if they don't have Finnick in his underwear going:"Why? Do you find this" -- he strikes a ridiculously provocative pose -- "distracting?"
Because honestly, that was pretty much my favourite part of the book. Tied with Katniss shooting Coin
Er, that may be a wee bit disturbing to see in the movie, but I guess that's just me. lol.
