Movie Review: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Like pretty much everyone else said, this movie is a vast improvement on the first (and I liked the first one); it's amazing how much difference taking the extra time and money really shows in a production (a lot like the difference between Twilight and New Moon). Also, there were trailers for Divergent and posters for Vampire Academy, so even though I'm not particularly invested in those books, I am delighted at how studios are eagerly throwing money at women writers.

Before I go on, I've gotta say I was muchly relieved by Samuel Claflin's performance as Finnick. Although I still think Chris Pine would have been better. (Once a headcanon, always a headcanon....)

Okay, here be spoilers.

( Why haven't you read the books yet? )

I kind of want to go again. And maybe finish that HG/Trek fusion I've had in my WIP folder for years.
