We have 7 of the character posters which includes: Katniss, Peeta, Gale, Rue, Haymitch, Cinna, and Effie. (Personally I love the Peeta one the best, but thats for obvious reasons). The Hunger Games hits theaters march 23, 2012. May the odds be ever in your favor. Continue reading

Open “Hobbit” Auditions End With Police

There was recently an open audition for the upcoming Hobbit films that ended with police. My guess is the casting call was for extras but when more than 3,000 hopefuls turned up, things got out of hand. When they were initially expecting around 1,000 applicants to appear, they were overwhelmed with the extra 2,000 that ended up turning up. Continue reading

Why The Casting For Hunger Games is Perfect

The Hunger Games film adaptation hasn’t even come out yet, but I am already anticipating that I will (hopefully) love this film. I’ve read the books and grown with the characters and  (as usual) become very emotionally invested in them. Mostly, when a movie comes out based on a book that I loved, I have hated it. There have been so many times where not only the story is wrong in the film but the casting makes it worse (thats right, Time Travelers Wife, I’m looking at you). The Hunger Games however, looks like the casting for the film is going to be perfect.  Continue reading

That is all we get as a teaser for the upcoming season 5 of True Blood. You can watch the teaser above and see for yourself. Unfortunately it doesn’t disclose much for what we are in for in the new season.

30 Rock Mentions The Hunger Games

On the recent new episode of 30 Rock (one of the best shows in existence if I do say so myself) our very own Liz Lemon mentions her love for The Hunger Games. 

She says, “Let me imagine what Peeta Mellark looks like and how his arms smell of bread!” And I have to agree with her. (Peeta Mellark is my favorite character, and I do imagine how he smells of warm delicious bread… sigh) Continue reading
