I love this for 1 reason:
1) MORE HAYMITCH!
I hate this for one reason:
1) NO MADGE!?!?!?! But...she gives Katniss the mockingjay pin! Plus, she's an example of how some kids have it easier than others if they're in the right families (example, her name is only in the reaping the minimum amount because her family isn't starving since she's the mayors daughter). Oh yeah, and she dies. You never cut out characters that die! Ughhh.
Blahh. They better not make the Katniss/Peeta/Gale love triangle that big a deal. In the books, it's not that big a deal, so I'll be pissed if they center the movie around it.
I adore Gale to bits and pieces...but he barely has any dialogue or page time in the first book. Part of what made Mockingjay so awesome was the fact that Gale, after all this anticipation, made it to main character status. XD. He slowly but surely built his character's importance in all three books.
btw, when do ya'll think they're going to cut Mockinjay? I know they're splitting in in half like Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows and Breaking Dawn.
I'm thinking it's going to be
when Katniss see's Peeta for the first time since the Quarter Quell and she thinks he's going to kiss her but he really just grabs her throat and tries to choke her to death.
Dude, that would totally drive everyone crazy. But it's kind of a good place to cut it since there is still so much story after it, yet there is so much story before it too. It's what divides the two parts of the adventure. I think it would be perfect, yet extremely frustrating. Especially because that would mean Peeta only gets like 3 on-screen moments. Twice in the Ceaser Flickerman interviews and once when that last thing happens. (Maybe they'll shoot some of
the Capitol torturing Peeta and Johanna
that would be really cool...yet very upsetting to witness)
XD
