THG topped $300 million this weekend at the domestic box office, making it the sixth quickest film to reach that number. :legend:

It's estimated that the weekend total is $33.5 million, making it the #1 film for a third week in a row. :legend:

It had a better third Friday than any Harry Potter or Twilight film. :legend:

It now has a domestic total of $302 million, which ranks it already at the 37th highest grossing film domestically. It has already out-grossed every Twilight movie, and all but two Harry Potter films (Deathly Hollows Pt. 2 and Sorcerers Stone). :legend:

Including worldwide grosses, THG now has a gross of $417 million in just three weeks. :legend: :legend: :legend: :legend: :legend:

it just keeps coming

:money:

Youtube vid where someone pointed a camera at their TV, relatively decent quality for that:

I'm half-way done book 2,

and-

SPOILERRRR

They just got sent back in AGAIN. WTF. I knew it was going to happen, but still.

Also, why is there pages upon pages of her ****ing complaining about how hard her life is,

and then BAM they announce their going back in, two pages later, they are already at the capitol?!

Why does she write this way, its so frustrating.

All katniss does is whine. I know her life is really ****ty, but it's hard to feel bad for her when her default though process is to complain about everything from Effie to the food to her broken foot, gaahhhhhh.

She also thinks too much, its like a small paragraph of events and then two pages of her thinking about what just happened. "Ooooh how will this effect Gale, I miss Prim, omg my life is so hard, why do all bad things happen to meeeee?"

Shut up Katniss.

/ Rant Off

Yep.

And Toad, I wasn't bothered by the particular writing issue you complain about. Maybe there's a more general limitation of keeping it first-person

I figured I’d write a story where Gale volunteers for Rory instead of Katniss/Prim. (I got the idea from an aside in Catching Fire). When thinking about the District 12 female in this scenario, I couldn’t resist the option of sending in both Gale and Katniss. I’d keep it first person, but from Gale’s point of view. I wouldn’t change anything that happened before the District 12 reaping.

This isn’t about shipping them, but I’d keep a love interest angle. However, I’ll bring the volunteerism to the forefront; I think the actual series underplays that.

There would be new ways to draw the Capitol’s ire. I figure something would slip out about the conditions in District 12, the Games in general or 12-year-old tributes in particular.

What The Gaga is going on?

what?
