I want to see the leaked set photos for "The Hunger Games"


Search: Fangirltanstic for more The Hunger Games set photos

Why: I finished the 3rd book last night finally. It was... um...

Then I was looking for more casting info, and I saw this:
New set photos from The Hunger Games, Piranha 3DD, and Gravity have leaked online. The Hunger Games photos show some of the buildings like the Hall of Justice, an insignia that fans of the book will probably recognize (I’m reading the book soon! I have a long plane ride ahead of me!), and a first look at Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket.
Answer: Inneresting. I think I imagined the Hall of Justice to be a bit more grandiose. And cream-colored. All of them. Which is, I guess, why you read books first. There's also Willow Shields as Prim.

The More You Know: Also,
The Piranha 3DD set photos show the water park where the sequel’s mayhem will go down (how does a freshwater fish survive in a chlorinated water park? Fuck you, that’s how) as well as some grisly corpses.
I was in a waterpark just last week! I lost my sunnies, but not my life. Shots:
Oooh! Poor Big Dave.

What is Noah Hathaway up to?

Why: Re: Childhood crushes who fell off the face of the earth, one answer:
The kid from Neverending Story-- Atreyu (Noah Hathaway)
Right? Remember when Artax died?
Answer: BFN! He hasn't done anything since 1994, BUT I think you'll be pleased to learn that he is working on (starring in?) !3! movies that are slated to come out in 2012.
  1. Mondo Holocausto! - In 1977, a lovely NYC photojournalist heads to the Amazon but encounters a tribe of misanthropic cannibals. Yipes! Also featuring James Duval, the guy who played the real-life Frank in Donnie Darko. Adventure / Horror / Might be animated.
  2. The Critic - "A film critic loses himself into an immoral wasteland and does bad things to people." Starring Dominique Swain and ALSO James Duval. Are they best friends?
  3. Sushi Girl - The night he is released from prison, the guys with whom Fish (Hathaway) robbed a bank throw him that kind of party where everyone eats sushi off a naked girl. Also starring:
He is 39 now, looking something like this. On second thought, maybe he and James Duval are more than best friends.
He is married with two sons.

The More You Know: In the 1986 movie Troll, he played a character named Harry Potter, Jr. (There was also a Harry Potter, Sr.) I have never seen / heard of this movie (though I have a feeling it's really popular among people I know), but it also features Elaine Benes, Sonny Bono, and the Mom from "Lassie," so maybe it's worth a Netflix. Anyway, about the Harry Potter thing:
In one of two interviews, producer Charles Band stated that "there are certain scenes in Troll, not to mention the name of the main character, and this of course predates the Harry Potter books by many, many years. So there's that strange connection." In 2008, John Buechler's partner in the Troll remake, Peter Davy, said about Harry Potter: "In John's opinion, he created the first Harry Potter. J. K. Rowling says the idea just came to her. John doesn't think so"
Them's fightin words! I just can't believe I haven't heard this factoid before. The original Harry Potter:

I want to watch the wedding scene in "The Little Mermaid"

Why: On HelloGiggles "Top 10 Best Outfits in Disney Films":

10. Vanessa (Evil Human Ursula) and Prince Eric's Wedding Outfits

Watch out, Wills & Kate! It’s all about Vanessa & Eric! Come to think of it, I see your wedding gown inspiration, Kate. The long brown hair let down? The long sleeved white dress? Admit it, kate. You just want to be…PART OF HIS WORLD. YOU WANT THINGAMAMABOBS? HE’S GOT TWENTY! Ariel had a fantastic pink dress, no doubt, but Vanessa’s wedding ensamble takes the wedding cake (I know, that one hurt me just typing it) and it’s mostly because of that gorgeous hair and sinister look. Say yes to the dress indeed!

I haven't seen that movie in at least 2 decades. I don't remember Ursula ever becoming human. I can't see the dress / outfit, anyway.

Answer: Well, here it is. You can see the whole thing around 0:38.
That looks like a pretty fun movie.
