I am disgusted by it, one way or another. Who says those things, no matter what situation it involves!?

Yeah I don't get that, several people who I know have gone to see it and I didn't hear any comments like that from them thank god, they thought it was a great movie. 3nodding

but in the book didnt they say she had dark skin? i thought the girl who played rue was adorable, i just wanted to hug her everytime they showed her whee

it makes me sick that people of our generation can be so racist they only feel sad when a little blonde white girl dies and are happy when a little black girl dies

There was a huge uproar when people found out Lenny Kravitz was going to play Cinna, and I was like "well not what I expected but ok."
Get into the movie and I walked out thinking nobody else could have done that role as much justice as he did.

Every fanbase has a good amount of idiots in it. Hunger Games being a "teen/tween" book just means there're more of them out there than usual. It's depressing, but they're the ones who get to live out their sad lives; while we all get to laugh at how terrible they are at being decent human beings.

I don't give a ******** what race Rue/Cinna/Thresh are.

I just didn't like how Katniss looked. Should have had a sharper face. :<
