Indeed! I hate having a song stuck in my head. Only time it ever worked in my favor was for a song I had to memorize for a musical I was in.

I'm SUPER excited for it!! !! !! !! ! I can't WAIT to see it!

I think I scare my Mom every time I fall out of my chair and bow to the T.V. whenever one of the commercials comes on. xD

I don't think I will go and see it. My reasons being the fact that theatres are a big stressor for me anyways and I hated the ending to the series. It was really upsetting how the author compacted the ending into one short, heart-breaking chapter. Not to mention, Hollywood movies usually aren't very similar to the books. Take the "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" series. They pretty much compacted all eight books into one short, atrocious movie. It sucked!

If you wanna talk about movies that compact the series ... Take A Series of Unfortunate Events. They took like twelve books, chose three or four events from it, and made a movie. Gah. I liked the movie until I read the books, and then I was like DAAANG. >_<

Person above doggirlsaydee - you bow to the tv? LOLOLOL! Awesome. ^_^

Who else is really looking forward to The Hunger Games Film coming out this year, it's gonna be released to my birthday in England, join me in the discussion of who's your favourite character in The Hunger Games etc.

I knew about it before it was popular.

I remember going into the Borders.com catalog of upcoming books, and thinking "Damn, this sounds cool" at like 11.

That was my best year in life so far.

Like 7th grade. Alone but to wrapped up in my own affairs to get lonely

It seems as though a lot of people, Aspies and NTs alike, are really excited about this movie. I feel out of the loop; is it really that good? I tried reading it once, but I guess my mind was on other things, so it didn't quite grab my attention. I put the book down and went to the science section of the book store instead. :lol: I was thinking about giving the series another chance. I'm guessing The Hunger Games is a lot better than Harry Potter and Twilight? I never got into those series either.

In Responce to the Italicised text

I saw the movie, I thought it was very decent. I thought they did a good job with the characterizations, having read the books. By the way, I thought the books were good, but not spectacular.

I will never read the Hunger Games or watch the film.
Why?
People do the same s**t to me about music. It'll change their lives? Never give it a chance.

I am a very vengeful little man

I love that song! I play it over and over and over until I stop listening but I keep it playing in the background. I go through phase like that, I really only have like three songs at any given time that I like enough to listen to and I'll listen to it for hours on repeat.

Oh.... And I think Johnny Depp should have been Haymitch.

I agree with 100% of your post! And I've seen the film, which I loved, but I loved the books a lot more too. I love safe and sound, and I also love kingdom come
