Catching Fire May Have Chosen Its Finnick, Mags And Beetee

By: Katey Rich After what’s seemed like months of run-arounds and rumors and shortlists and wishful thinking, we finally have what looks like a frontrunner to play Finnick in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire…. and it’s probably not who you’re hoping. Not to say anything against Sam Claflin, who Variety reports is the choice to play Finnick in the sequel, but you probably don’t know … Continue reading Catching Fire May Have Chosen Its Finnick, Mags And Beetee

The Hunger Games Catching Fire To Be Released In IMAX Theaters

By: Kelly West One of the things I regret not getting around to doing when The Hunger Games hit theaters was seeing it on an IMAX screen. While our own Katey Rich made a good point about the shaky camera style and emphasis on close-ups likely preventing the film from really benefiting from an IMAX screen, I can’t help but think that the futuristic world … Continue reading The Hunger Games Catching Fire To Be Released In IMAX Theaters

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Producer Denies Finnick Casting Rumors

By: Katey Rich The rumors that emerged last week about who might play Finnick Odair in The Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire seemed so logical they had to be true. Armie Hammer, Garrett Hedlund and Taylor Kitsch all seemed like perfectly reasonable frontrunners to play the charming, handsome, slightly immoral Finnick, and with production on the film set to begin in the fall, it seemed … Continue reading The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Producer Denies Finnick Casting Rumors

The Hunger Games Sequel Officially Titled The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

By: Eric Eisenberg When it came to creating brand recognition, Summit Entertainment really nailed it with the Twilight franchise. When the sequels were being produced they didn’t simply call them Eclipse or New Moon, but rather extended the title but putting The Twilight Saga: in front of it. Needless to say, it’s been expected that Lionsgate would be doing the same thing with their Hunger … Continue reading The Hunger Games Sequel Officially Titled The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Catching Fire (Hunger Games Trilogy: Book 2)

Oh my god!  This was such a good book.  I truly mean that, it was a amazing.  You know I was never really interested in picking up the books, mainly because the covers were, well, plain.  But ever since I read the first book, I have to say “never judge a book by it’s cover”.  This was truly an amazing book, I could not put … Continue reading Catching Fire (Hunger Games Trilogy: Book 2)

Remake of Stephen King’s Carrie Starring Chloe Moretz Gets Release Date

Remakes are so common now that when announced they’re almost immediately disregarded. Even circumstances where the project doesn’t sound like such a bad idea they’re still dismissed and lumped into the unoriginal pile – and often justifiably. Yet there are times when a remake is not only warranted, but the pieces are also put together so perfectly that we should welcome the revisit and/or new … Continue reading Remake of Stephen King’s Carrie Starring Chloe Moretz Gets Release Date
