Hunger Games Posters

[heidi]

Some of the district-specific Hunger Games posters were released today, and I think I finally found a use for my Tumblr. I still have no idea how to link to the exact post, but they're from Seat42f, and I put them up here and






The District 4 one isn't up yet, but the Facebook page where it'll be is here - how could I be from South Florida, ocean-touched and boat-surrounded as it is, knowing that in the world of Panem it's all under water, and not have an affinity for District Four?

Gah, I really hope this film is all it can be. And in other news, I am back home and hopefully not leaving the state for the rest of the year; Orlando is far enough to travel for a few months, including this weekend for the Ascendio site visit.

If you're newly on Pottermore, I have a poll asking for what your username there is - it's here - I'm WingSpirit211 (Ravenclaw) but I haven't been in there in over a week because of the holidays and travel.

Am finally caught up on Supernatural (YAY and I also LOVELOVELOVE my spn_j2_xmas prompt!!), saw Glee tonight (good songs, Will is annoying, and I have no idea if they're going to take any of the real issues seriously (including the Don't Hurt Rachel's Feelings ludicrousity) beyond this episode, and I want at least two of Rachel's dresses) and the second half of the Doctor Who finale, but I think I have to watch the first half of the ep for the second half to make sense. Tomorrow, at the gym, maybe.

I guess I should you know...read Hunger games huh? Because I know nothing about it to be honest.

...How do we know Florida is underwater? Has Collins given specifics about the districts beyond what's in the books? (Is that in the books? I've only read the last two once each.)

[tahirire.livejournal.com]

If I recall correctly, we are informed that pretty much everything is underwater or has been destroyed outside of Panem, which resides somewhere in the Colorado Rockies. But I only just recently read them for the first time so I could be wrong.

[sundancekid.livejournal.com]

Right, but Panem is fairly large -- the Capitol is in the Rockies, and Katniss is from Appalachia. I'm looking at the wiki page on the universe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hunger_Games_universe) right now, but it doesn't have this level of detail (as least as far as I've read).

I remember trying to figure out which district Texas was, and couldn't.

[tahirire.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Idk. I just remember thinking that however large they said it wasn't was probably a lie, lol.

aimmyarrowshigh put together an amazing, logical map of Panem, including justification for why she put which district where. The post is here. I've pored over a lot of maps of Panem, but this is the one I find most useful. And it's pretty, too.

I'm pretty sure Texas is part of four, and I thought that before I saw the map that sabaceanbabe linked to, although I am not 100% sure why. Possibly just the proximity to water and the importance of fishing as an industry there.

[sundancekid.livejournal.com]

Reading that list on Wikipedia now, I think the eastern half is probably underweater/District Four, and the western half is probably District Ten (livestock). That's not much like the map you linked, though.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Not specifically specific to that extent, but I've always been told that if there's a cataclysm worldwide, at least South and Central Florida will sink - we're too low and at least my end of it isn't on any significantly stable landmass. We do know that District Four is big with fishing and on the ocean/sea, so there's a strong impression that there's more ocean around Texas then than there is now.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I AM SO EXCITED.

Did I tell you I am making Katniss' Mockingjay/wedding dress? *waggles eyebrows*

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Ooooooooooooooh, cannot wait to see it! The white one, or the black one?

[tahirire.livejournal.com]

The actual wedding dress that catches fire and turns black. I'm designing it to be mid-transformation. :)

[sabaceanbabe.livejournal.com]

I *think* Ohio is in District 6, which is basically a nothing district. I don't even remember what they're known for. :(

When District 4 is up, though, it's going on my profile page. And why have they not started casting for Finnick??? WHY??? I need icons, dammit!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

"Transportation" is what it says on wikipedia - "not much is known".

And forever, no matter who they actually cast, Jared will be the Finnick in my head. Tall, broad, hot, muscular, emotional, and with ginger-tinged hair? Also, would loook good in just a net. Also see this.

[sabaceanbabe.livejournal.com]

Lighten his hair to more of a bronze color and I think I'm totally on board with that. Boy can cry pretty, too. He's only a handful of years too old (which makes me cringe to say, because 29/30 is so not too old for anything), but since the other actors are several years older than 16/17, I don't think that matters much.

And that link? Yum.

Hmm... Maybe I should just make my own Finnick icons with the boys I think could pull it off.

[hermione-like.livejournal.com]

Just added you on Pottermore! I filled out the poll, but I'm SpellRose186 and Ravenclaw as well. :)

[rafikiven.livejournal.com]

Yay Hunger Games!

I just got caught up on Supernatural last night! I was traveling and missed the first two episodes. Loved the last one.

I'm with you on Will--can't stand him!

[annearchy.livejournal.com]

I can't remember; is there a district that mostly makes beer and cheese? :)
