Adopt The Hunger Games, Noble Collection!!

I've been thinking about this for awhile, and the more I think about it, the more I will be so sad if it does not come true. I am very adamant about The Noble Collection selling Hunger Games collectibles.

I have been getting The Noble Collection catalog for years, and something from it always seems to end up on my Christmas list. It started when they came out with the Lord of the Rings line and I begged Santa for the Evenstar necklace. Alas, it was a little too expensive for Santa. Now fast forward to the day I could not contain myself when they started coming out with a Harry Potter line. The third movie had just come out and they had the trio's wands, a time turner, and only a couple other things. Santa gave me a Time Turner that year which I will always treasure. Today, the Noble Collection  has 187 different Harry Potter collectibles. We're not just talking your run of the mill collectibles, these are high quality items, some priced as much as $500. Don't tell me you wouldn't want the Sword of Gryffindor hanging on your wall.

So as popular as Hunger Games is about to become, I would love to see this fine company produce high quality items found in The Hunger Games. Top of list, no doubt, would be the coveted Mockingjay pin. A real piece of jewelry, much like how the Mockingjay pin is in the books. What else could there be? Well, perhaps Peeta's pearl, Peeta's locket, or a sweet Communicuff. Granted there are not many items you could do, but the possibilities are endless when the movies come out. For example, the Harry Potter books don't go into detail about Hermione's jewelry, but much of Hermione's jewelry in the films are sold on the Noble Collection. See what I mean? Many possibilities.

So Lionsgate, Hunger Games rights holders, Noble Collection, whoever has the power to make this a reality, MAKE THIS HAPPEN! I am more than happy to give you all my money.

People Releases Hunger Games Photos and Article!

It's the pink hair that did it.

For Elizabeth Banks, playing Effie Trinket in the upcoming screen version of The Hunger Games first clicked into place thanks to the character's signature cotton-candy coif.

"I would be in the hair and makeup trailer and I was Elizabeth, and then the wig went on and very suddenly I was Effie," says Banks, 37. "Every day I would have that aha moment, like, 'We did it! We found Effie!' "

In the best-selling The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins, Effie serves as a publicity agent of sorts for the Games, a cruel arena battle that pits youths, called "tributes," against each other in a televised fight to the death. The movie opens March 23.

"Effie is a very complicated woman," says Banks, who previously worked with director Gary Ross on 2003's Seabiscuit. "She's a spinner. She spins everything into something positive. These kids have been pulled from their loved ones to compete on television in this horrible event in which they will likely lose their lives."

Effie, she says, is "charged with making their last days before they're in the Games as positive as possible, so that they go into the Games with a great attitude. And, of course, that seems crazy."

At the center of the action is the heroine Katniss Everdeen (played by Jennifer Lawrence), whose skills with a bow and arrow aid her survival.

"Katniss is so strong, so courageous, and when faced with this overly positive, super-enthusiastic Effie, [Jennifer] and I definitely had some great moments of conflict," says Banks – who admits to one major drawback in playing the outrageously dressed character.

"For sure the biggest challenge of playing Effie was the shoes!" says Banks. "All of my shoes in the movie are completely amazing but highly uncomfortable. I said to Gary, 'You better be shooting these shoes, because they're killing me.' "

The Fans Weigh In on Movies.com

I was asked to submit my reaction to Movies.com on behalf of Victor's Village so here it is!

I have never been so blown away by just a theatrical trailer. In two and a half minutes, Jennifer Lawrence’s portrayal of Katniss felt gut-wrenchingly real, so much so that the Reaping scene broke my heart into a million tiny pieces, leaving me in tears for the rest of the trailer. Seeing the glimpses of the citizens of Panem watching the games, especially the three-finger salute in District 11, is a very welcome perspective and much needed addition. District 12, the Capitol, the training center, the arena – all places that have been no more than words on paper and images in my head – are now concrete, and what’s better is that they are as I have imagined. These places sacred to me have been treated with respect. Finally, the countdown at the end of the trailer as a panicking Katniss is rising up into the arena provides such an ominous feeling that even a stranger to the series will know that this will be a movie to be taken seriously. The trailer brought it in terms of stunning visuals, true to the book scenes, emotion and depth, and phenomenal acting.

Hunger Games to be on Netflix One Year After Release!

Netflix has signed another major content deal ahead of its much-anticipated UK launch next year, enabling the firm to offer new movies from Lionsgate, such as The Hunger Games.

The American company has agreed a multi-year licensing deal with Lionsgate, making it the studio's exclusive subscription streaming partner for first-run films in the UK and Ireland.

Under the deal, Netflix will enable subscribers to watch a range of Lionsgate titles in the pay-TV window on TVs, tablets, games consoles, mobile phones and computers - meaning it will stream the films at the same time as they are shown on Sky Movies.

New Lionsgate movies will appear on Netflix within one year of their theatrical release, including The Hunger Games starring Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth, blockbuster action sequel The Expendables 2 and the recently-announced remake of Dirty Dancing.
