FLAMES. ON THE SIDE OF MY FACE.



I started this as an email to Matt and Tara, but what the hell - I have spent the last 6 hours watching the Direct TV guy try and get my HD/DVR back so I can maybe start blogging again (hopefully).

So I figured why not share this with the 2 people that still read my blog through my blog
as a show of my love for them.
('sup t and matty)

I just watched this trailer another 2000 times - and from a costume perspective, I actually don't think its futuristic at all. It almost seems dated. The police look like storm troopers.
HOWEVER
I think I am ok with it. Because as much as The Hunger Games is the future, its a sad and post-apocalyptic future that in fact isn't progressive at all. So I think I applaud this almost banal approach to the costumes. One thing, though - I am distracted by Gale's shirt in the opening few scenes. I keep trying to pause it so I can get a better look at the stitching. What distracted me first was that it seemed factory made...like its from GAP or J Crew.

THAT BEING SAID.....

I DIE. AGAIN AND AGAIN. March 23rd needs to get here like now now.
I plan on nerding out about this like you people and
your fucking iphones.
THIS is what waiting in line is allllls about.
