You know you're obsessed with the Hunger Games when...

"Katniss is another Indian name of a plant, the root of which they were likewise accustomed to eat,... It grows in low, muddy, and very wet ground. The root is oblong, commonly an inch and a half long, and one inch and a quarter broad in the middle; but some of the roots have been as big as a man's fists. The Indians either boiled this root or roasted it in hot ashes. ... Their katniss is an arrow-head or Sagittaria, and is only a variety of the Swedish arrow-head or Sagittaria sagittifolia, for the plant above the ground is entirely the same, but the root under ground is much greater in the American than in the European. Mr. Osbeck, in his voyage to China, mentions that the Chinese plant a Sagittaria, and eat its roots.
This seems undoubtedly to be a variety of this katniss....""

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

So Katniss is Indian? I was for right for once! My dead and mutilated ego is now a zombie ego.

[Amanda]

They've only casted Katniss right now, It's ummm Jennifer.. something. She was in Winter's Bone and got nominated for an Oscar, but she doesn't look like Katniss to me. :(

And good, Katniss iss real. I'd been meaning to find and eat that, plus all the district breads, and goat cheese. :)

[[deleted user]]

Jennifer Lawrence -_- and I wanted to kill something when I heard she was Katniss. I dread when they pick Peeta and Gale......and Haymitch.

[Melissa]

Actually, on some website I saw them take a picture of her and make her look...like K. And then there was some artist who took Cinna's designs and put her in them. Trust me, it's good...I'm a believer...and this is coming from the girl who went "HER!?!?! KILL ME!!!"

[Amanda]

Do you know what website? I guess we'll just have to wait and see. At least we know she's a good actress.

[Amanda]

OOh. I see.

[Elena]

wow! all they need is her hair in braids!

[Rarietty]

Yeah, why didn't they do that? Other than that, she actually sort of looks like I pictured her.

[Amanda]

This is just a fan made thing, not official or anything. Whoever made this did suchhhh a good job though!

[Melissa]

yeah, no kidding!
no, i don't kow it, but i'll look. I'll put it up if i find it again.

[[deleted user]]

I felt kinda nerdy today but i loved it. Me and my two friends were arguing about which celebrities should play the characters in the movie.

[Sarah]

lol that's not as bad as my friends and i :P we argue about what kids from our school would be the perfect characters in the novel. But we can never agree on a Katniss or Gale... mostly because we fight about who gets to be K.

[Melissa]

I don't know enough male actors to do that...
AHA! FOUND IT!
The Site

[Elena]

i like the interview dress!

[Melissa]

my favorite :)
Josh Hutcherson & Liam Hemsworth might star in THG. Thoughts?

[Melissa]

I'm hurrying so the pics will just be links

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

NO. WAY. I am getting my AK-47 ready to shoot them so they can just die and I can have a decent movie. Liam Hemsworth? Oh God no. Josh Hutcherson will be the kid from Terabithia, and he still looks like it. He looks like a dork, just like Evan Peters. Who even put that guy on there?

[Melissa]

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

To be nice, I'll kindly say that I hate them all and want to mutilate their faces.

[Melissa]

ALLLLL?!?! MUTILATE!?!? I hope you're talking about hating their acting, Jia, cuz there's some hotties...

[Melissa]

Yummy guys on the list:
Robbie Amell
Drew Roy
Lukas Till
Hunter Parrish

*maybe Alexander Ludwig. maybe.

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

I think Robbie Amell is a fat and talentless idiot.

Drew Roy was on Hannah Montana and he sucked even on that. No talent at all.

Lucas Till can dig himself a ditch because no one deserves to see that face. Shudder.

Hunter Parrish looks so cocky and like someone's already done the mutilating- with Botox.

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

Uh huh. I'm so nice, aren't I?

[Melissa]

*lip quivers*
*tear rolls down face*
(loud sobbing begins)
but it's supposed to be a goooood mooo(voice hitches here)vie!!!

[Melissa]

I wish you could've been near the thousands of screaming girls at the Twilight WP...oh, the evilness you would spread XD hehehe

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

I know, I'm probably the nicest girl in the world. XD I was in my History class and we had to write articles for a magazine. This kid who was in my group chose his topic from the list of topics. Then I chose mine, he was like "Hey, I wanted to do that!" and started whining for 30 minutes. He said I had a black hole for a heart. I gave it to him anyway. Juts wanted to see how long he would last. XD

[Melissa]

i'd be like, "SUCKS FOR YOU, YOU ALREADY CHOSE YOURS! YOU CHOSE FIRST! SHUT UP AND GO AWAY!!!" and under my breath i'd add, "and go f*** yourself."

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

I tried to stay nonchalant the entire time, but it was so hard. After class I start bursting into a mad fit of laughter. XD

Most of these choices suck :(

[Amanda]

Hmm. As what characters? I like both of them, and they're pretty darn attractive, but I don't really see them as working..

[Sarah]

eww i hate almost all the choices! david henrie looks too much like a kid and he stars on a disney show,robbie amell was on a disney show, i think lucas till was in a music video for taylor swift, josh for one has dark hair and if he died it it would look weird and two he looks too much like a kid. i have nothing wrong with ludwig except he might be a little too attractive if that makes any sense...

[Elena]

who would liam be? josh seems okay his jaw line looked kind of funny in that shot....lol

[Amanda]

Sarah, Lucas Till was also in the HANNAH MONTANA MOVIE! Dun dun dunnnnnn. That may put you off of him even more haha. I like William Moseley for Peeta. & I love Chord Overstreet on Glee, but not sure how he'd be as Peeta. Plus his hair looks fake heh. And Thomas McDonell for Gale. He may need to cut his hair a bit though. Jeez, I sound obsessed with hair..

[Sarah]

OMG he was in The HM movie! i knew i recognized him from something else too! urg ur right Amanda that did make it worse....personally i cant help with the whole which person should be who in THG movie cuz i read books not watch movies. heck, i have no idea who you guys are talking about :)

[Elena]

good looking hair is my motto too lol

[Amanda]

Hahaha trouty mouth.. Love that song about it! :D
William Moseley was in Narnia, and someone posted a video on this thread earlier with him laughing crazy hah. I only heard about Thomas McDonell cause he's on the poll they have here for who should play Gale.

[Elena]

i don't think Thomas McDonell should play Gale he looks to innocent.....

THANK YOU I CANNOT STAND DAVID HENRIE I REALLY DON'T GET IT WHEN PEOPLE THINK HE'S ATTRACTIVE!

[Laura , shut up and eat your pears]

Who's the guy with the unnaturally wide jaw bone?? o.O I forgot his name...

[Amanda]

Hm, yeah Gale's definitely not innocent hah. It's all in the acting though, right? He can act non-innocent. I think. Never seen him act. I'm just putting all my faith in his hair.

Josh Hutcherson is the one with the weird jaw bone haha. He was in Bridge to Terabithia, ummm Journey to the Center of the Earth, and some others.

[Melissa]

and Firehouse Dog...anything more recent? I can't remember.

[Elena]

he was in The Kids are Alright but ummmm nobody should watch that unless ur way older than 17....

I'm not a big fan of guys with long hair but i suppose it could work

[Sarah]

i swear if any of those guys end up being gale no one will ever find their bodies....

[Elena]

i'm with you Sarah!

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

If any of those guys get any of the roles, I will murder Debra Zane. And them, and Gary Ross, and let's throw in Justin Bieber while we're at it.

[Sarah]

Lol I like how you think Jia :P

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

Yeah, according to my friends, I have a mental disease of some sort. And caffeine is a drug according to the FDA, so keep that in mind.

[Sarah]

Lol im addicted to pepsi, if i dont have at least 2 or 3 per day i get headaches :P and my brothers call me dark and sinister

[Jia, " Snow: 'Katniss. I. Am. Your. Father.' "]

A kid in my History class told me either I have no heart or my heart is a black hole. It sucks in love, but then destroys it. I threatened to kill him with my compass. Yeah, I'm so nice, aren't I?
