I read the book and I'm impressed, never have there been a book that touched me like Harry Potter before I read this series, awesome stuff I say, awesome stuff.

Now to pray that they use the exact things that the author described in the book, I want to see Katniss spinning in her dress at the interview biggrin.gif

Btw anyone found a place to buy the Mocking Jay pin? Been searching for it for a while.

Yea it's sad, now to look around shops in Malaysia, THERE MUST BE ONE!

--------------------------------------------------------------

Oh and I watched it on the first weekend it was released, found it disappointing since it skipped some key plots from the book.

Here's a list but don't read it if you don't want the movie or book to be spoiled.

http://www.mercurynews.com/movies-dvd/ci_2...sons-still-read

But still it's a good movie, just that the whole thing was a little rushed so emotions couldn't set in, I never cried at Rue's scene (I actually almost shed a tear when reading this part of the book), Katniss never screamed "THEY ARE THE TRIBUTES!" when they were climbing the Cornucopia scene while being chased by the mutts. No robotic leg for Peeta, no Madge and well, they didn't really did a lot of introducing on most characters, like the Avox, the make-up crew and Cinna's assistant, Portia.

Oh well, at least it won over Twilight and Harry Potter's earlier movies, only lost to The Dark Knight and Harry Potter: The Deathly Hallows Part 2.
