Captiol Trailer!

Hooray! dani72187 has done it again!
Another AMAZING video! This is what he had to say about it:

Fan-made trailer for the second Suzanne Collins book, Catching fire. This trailer is more from the Capitols point of view so it doesn't focus on the rebellion aspect of the book. I was working on another video, but it wasn't working out to well so I switched over to this. I hope you enjoy.

Here it is! Enjoy and don't forget to comment and do your best to give dani72187 and 5 star rating and to check out his other videos! ;D 
Well, what did you think? Amazing, right? Let me know what you thought!

May the odds EVER be in your favor!

Blog Update 1#

Hello!
Just a quick blog update! 
1. I am now on FACEBOOK! As you can see to my(and your) right. Click it and it'll take you to my profile. Just mention that you found me at this blog and I'll add you as a friend! I promise! ;) I tried to find as many of my followers as possible but alas! I only found two! Yeah, that's kinda sad. I think it will be easier to just have you guys send requests. Shout-out: Thank you Annie Dronet for using the same profile pic for Blogger and Facebook! That helped! I sent you a request! :D
2. I have entered another HG Toplist! It's located in the same area as the first. Don't worry! It's just as fast to vote as the first! ;) Please try to do both once a day. Also rate and review this site!
3. The post poll. We now have 3 candidates!
1.(previously 4#) Forest vs. Clock. A closer look and comparison of the 74th and 75th games arena.
2.(previously 3#)  Camouflage vs. wood savvy (Peeta's weapon vs. Katniss')
3.(previously 5#) The fashion and style of the Capitol and how the Hunger Games effected it. Dress like a Capitolist! (This could be VERY interesting!) :D
Written in order of votes.
Review the choices and enter your vote! Either through comments, cbox, or email! Would it be easier if I just made a poll? Would you vote then? Let me know! :)
4. I need your help! I would LOVE to feature your Hunger Games work! If you write, draw, make videos, sing, play piano, have theories, or anything else that is HG related, LET ME KNOW!
OMG. How could I have forgotten? A mega shout-out to whoever left that review on the HG Toplists! Thank you SO MUCH!
That's all for now! Thanks for reading!

Uh oh Let This Horridness NOT BE TRUE!!!

Here I am minding my own business contentedly surfing the web for the latest HG news when I stumble across the most AWFUL, TERRIBLE, GHASTLY, HORRIFIC, DISTURBING news EVER!!!
It was just an innocent fan who had preordered Mockingjay before it was even titled, they had just received this message in their inbox. It reads as follows:
Unfortunately the release date for the Hunger Games Book 3 – the Mockingjay changed. The new delivery date is now October 4th.
OMG!! Please let this NOT BE TRUE if so it will like ruin my month!  PLEASE, OH PLEASE, OH PLEASE!!! Let this just be a case of horrid security on Amazon's part and that hopefully someone just managed to hack into their accounts and sent out this very NOT FUNNY joke or SPAM! (As twisted as that just sounded I hope it's true!) If not, that will TOTALLY jack up my countdown.....
More as soon as I find anything..........

May the odds EVER be in your favor! (Meaning that this is just a horrible joke.)

HG News Flash 1#

Hello! 
Ok, this is a quick news flash for you guys so you can stay updated with all the latest HG news! Let's see...Nina Jacobson will be the producer for the Hunger Game movie she is working in close contact along with Suzanne Collins! (Now THAT would be awesome!) *sigh* Here's a quick interview with her. Nina Jacobson not Suzanne Collins. darn!
Anyway:
 AHHHHHHH!! (Note: the ole dentist kind of open-your-mouth-and-say-ah kind NOT the AHH! there's-a-monster-under-my-bed! kind of ah! *clearing throat* As we were:
AHHH! A random pic of Lionsgate(i don't know why). Thank you! Lionsgate for being smart enough to make Hunger Games into a movie BEFORE Disney tried to snap it up and jack it up with their "disneyfying". I love you for it!
Disclaimer: I do NOT hate Disney. I do not dislike Disney or anyone associated with Disney because they're associated with Disney. I just HATE the idea of them "disneyfying" The Hunger Games movie. don't you?
Ok, now here's the interview:
[When]Asked about sci-fi action film The Hunger Games, Jacobson said, “The author (Suzanne Collins) is adapting it herself and she is writing away as we speak so I’m very excited about that.”
There’s no director or cast on board for that film yet. “We’ve had a lot of interest from directors,” she said. “Kind of an embarrassment of riches in terms of tons of directors who have called about it, but we didn’t want to attach anybody until we had a script and knew we were making the movie so that we didn’t end up having somebody get attached and then take something else and then not know what to do about staying with them or not. So we are waiting until we have our script before we go to directors, but there’s been some interest from great people.”
Lionsgate is targeting a 2011 release for the film. “[The studio] has been incredibly gonzo about having the movie. We’re getting the script in and our goal is we hope to attach a director late spring and make the movie in the fall for release anytime fall ‘11 or later. But that’s if everything goes perfectly on the script. If we take more time on the script, we’ll just go a little bit later. But our hope is to be making this movie in the fall,” she explained.
Hooray! Suzanne Collins is hard at work for us! Oh yeah! I can't wait! Fall of 2011! Oh YEAH!!!! OH YEAH!!! I can't wait! ALL this amazing Hunger Games stuff coming out! HG overload! HG overload! That's SO a good thing! More soon! Thanks for reading!

May the odds EVER be in your favor!

74th and 75th Hunger Games! not.

Hello Faithful Followers!
How has your day been? This post is being posted in recognition of this blog receiving 75 followers! OMG!!! I can't believe it! air! air! must get air! breathe! *chocking and gasping* Ok, here we go, WOW 75 followers! Hooray! 
Thanks you SO MUCH you guys! There's NO way I could have done it without you! You're the best! No really, you are. :)
Ok, as you know my plan was to relive the Hunger Games according to my number of followers. But I got to thinking...
If you want to read about the Hunger Games then just buy the book! I mean there’s about 200 pages dedicated to the 74th and at least 150 to the 75th one so what can I say that hasn’t been said? (Well, I can ALWAYS say something that hasn’t been said but suggest that you buy the books, if you haven’t already, which you should have.) :P
I mean it made sense to post about the 50th Hunger Games since there’s about 3(ok, maybe 5) pages dedicated to it in Catching Fire. (Not condemning, just sayin)
So instead of posting about what has already been written about I decided to let you choose from these options: Note: If you don’t like any of them then email what you would like to hear about! Disclaimer: Ok, I’m sorry if the one you chose doesn’t ultimately get picked but don’t let that stop you from voting. I will eventually post about ALL OF THEM and I will do so according to their order in my readers polls. So…VOTE!
Ok, now here are the choices:
1.    1.A reader’s poll (on something concerning the Hunger Games. I don’t know what so I’m hoping for PLENTY of suggestions from you!)
2.    2.A behind-the-scenes look at WHAT happened while Katniss was at the 74th(or 75th) Hunger Games. (Meaning: District 12, Gale, Haymitch, Effie, Cinna, and stylist team. I like this idea!) :)
3.    3.Camouflage vs. Wood Savvy (Peeta’s weapon vs. Katniss’)
4.   4.Forest vs. Clock (A closer look and comparison of the 74th and 75th Hunger Games arena.)
  5.The fashion and style of the Capitol and how the Hunger Games effected it. Dress like a capitolist! (This could be VERY interesting!) :)

Well, there are you choices! Choose carefully. Read the descriptions again. And again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again. If your answer hasn’t changed then email it to me. If you don’t like any of the options then email your ideas for a post. I’d LUV to hear from you! ;) Now, if you can't make up your mind about which ONE you want you can send me your top TWO choices (in order).
Only thing I ask it that you DO NOT put your vote in the comment section. I believe that this influences others and I want a peer-pressure-free voting. Also, if you have any suggestions or ideas for a post please email them to me as well. I don’t want others to be distracted if they like the choices. My email address can be found in the top right hand corner of this blog, in the Contact Me! section. 
Thanks for reading!
May the odds EVER be in your favor!
-R!  
P.S. I will NOT POST until I receive an acceptable number of votes. So, put your choosing cap  on and vote! Remember, you're doing it for the team! :)
MTOEBIYF!

The Fiftieth Hunger Games-Haymitch's Games Part 2

Hello Everyone! Welcome to Part 2 of the Fiftieth Hunger Games! :) (I know, I know, it's been a while my bad. But It's here now that's what counts right?)
For my new followers who don't know what is going on, This post and it's other half(Part 1) was/is posted in honor of my blog obtaining 50 followers! So, I decided to relive the Fiftieth Hunger Games! (And so on with the 74 and 75 Hunger Games.) Ok, enough  explanation. but you might need to read Part 1 so we can all be on the same page, so to speak. :)
I decided to add some random music to this post in an effort to dilute the horrors we are about to relive. Tell me what you think but please EMAIL me any suggestions you might have! Enjoy!



Let's examine our favorite tributes shall we?(If your favorites our different then mine well...you need help. professional help, and that would be me!) :)
OK, here we go:
Haymitch Abernathy and Maysilee Donner!
That about wraps it up. (If yours WERE different then mine then, we need to talk.)
Let's just get some basic information about them.
 

Maysilee Donner:
Was the aunt of Madge Undersee and tribute of the Second Quarter Quell.
Age: Unknown (My guess: Around 15 or 16. Maybe even 14.)
Occupation: Tribute
Home: District 12(!!) 
Weapon: Poisoned Darts (Not "poison" darts because she poisoned them herself, remember?)
Fate: Death
Cause: Skewered through the neck multiple times by pink (ironic color) birds with exceptionally long and sharp beaks.

Haymitch Abernathy:
Age: 16
Occupation: Tribute
Home: District 12(!!)
Weapon: Force Field
Fate: Winner
 

Ok, now that we have the formalities out of the way let's look at the playing field: 
  • Breathtaking(quite literally, so enjoy it while you got it)
  • Gorgeous(enough said...'til you keep reading)
  • Snowcapped mountains that later erupt in lava(what the? where's my life raft?)
  • A Beautiful Forest containing killer fluffy golden squirrels(and not killer in the good way, killer in the painful, permanent way)
  • Elegant yet deadly poisonous butterflies (who could have seen that coming?)
  • Luscious fruit that brings death(I've heard of the angel of death but this is just ridiculous!)note: you are what you eat! muahahahaha!
  • The crystal clear water in the pristine streams is flowing poison(OMG!)
  • The attractive flowers are disguised agents of tortured, agonizing deceasment :) (hold your breath everyone or you'll die!) 
  • Not to mention numerous poisons EVERYWHERE!!! (Ahhh!!!!!)
Oh, and let's not forget:

  • Striking pink neck-skewering birds(I am not even going to laugh at the "striking" irony!...Ok...I am! ahahaha! :) )
And:

  • A secret(and deadly) force field that sends already released axes back into your head!(Now I can really say: Who saw that coming?) 
Whew! I probably would have been one of the 18 that dies the first day. Well not NOW that I've read and know what is poisonous but if not...well: deceasment!(new word! Try and use it sometime!)
I hope you enjoyed our reliving of the past. Tell me what you thought! Yeah, I'm glad I added the music. I know I needed it!(You know you did too!)


I would like to send a shout-out to EVERY SINGLE ONE of my followers!! Thanks you guys! Luv ya! :) And a very special shout-out to all of my commenting followers! (Not showing favoritism just appreciation. ;) )Love your comments! Keep them coming! :)
 

Don't forget to comment and EMAIL ME YOUR THEORIES! If they involve ANY aspect of the Hunger Games please EMAIL THEM TO ME!!! 
Thanks for reading!

May the odds EVER be in your favor!

Have Your Blog Featured HERE!!!

Ok, now for those of you who read my super long comment you know what I'm talking about. But for those of you who didn't Here's how it is:
If you would like to have your blog featured HERE at this blog you can do 1 of 2 things or you can do 2 of 2 things and knocked up to the top of the list(your choice). You can:
1. Create a post(not a blog, sometimes people get them mixed up) that is somehow related to the Hunger Games. You can then email me the link.(My email can be found when you view my profile.) I will check it out and get back to you as soon as humanly possible.
2. (This is MUCH easier! :) ) You send me some of your own Hunger Games theories. By email, not by comment. Also include a direct link to your blog. This works if your going for BOTH. The post might not SOLELY feature your blog (like 1. will) as their might be other people with AMAZING theories as well. But it's still excellent for your blog!
If you are going to send me someting don't send it to my old email. My new one is:
hungergameseriestheories@gmail.com
Thnx for the comments and a HUGE shout out to my new followers! Thnx you guys!

May the odds EVER be in you favor!
-R!
Note/P.S.- I will be more than happy to follow your blogs. Umm if you could send me your links and maybe sentence about what your blog is about that would be extremely helpful! Thnx!

MTOEBIYF!(ok, THAT was weird)

Catching Fire Trailer

Hi!
I love trailers and guess what? I found you another one!
Now for those of you who are confused as to what in the world that title meant, lemme explain. If your like me you're thinking: "What in the world? The Hunger Games movie hasn't even come out yet and they already have the trailer for Catching Fire? What the...?" Now, if your not like me, then that sentence meant absolutely nothing to you. Too bad. :P
Hmm...Instead of ME just clarifying, how about YOU go ahead and watch it? Good idea, right? Right! Enjoy and don't forget to comment! (Hey Megan, this video is NOT from YouTube! Hooray!:) )



Pretty cool right? Ok, ok. It isn't the movie trailer or anything but you must admit it was a pretty sweet BOOK trailer! right? Complete genius! Let me know what you thought! 
And keep working on those theories! :) Let me know what you have at: hungergamesseriestheories@gmail.com

Mockingjay Countdown! Not Part 2 Part 2 :)

Hi! Happy Theory Month! what? Theory Month. The month where all my followers and readers send me ALL of their Hunger Games theories! I can't wait! :)
I just thought of something. If you have theories but maybe you don't want everyone to know that they're your theories go ahead and instead of leaving them in the comment section (which is fine) you can email them to me and specify that you want to be anonymous. That's perfectly fine. 
Note:I will want to use your theories to discuss and evaluate in future posts, but I won't mention that they're yours unless you want me to.
Thanks for your theories keep them coming!

May the odds ever be in your favor!
-R!

P.S. You can send them to me at:
hungergamesseriestheories@gmail.com
