How to Enter Set Visit Sweepstakes from iPad!

Last week, we posted the press release of The Hunger Games Adventures releasing on iPad as well as the announcement of a sweepstakes to win a Catching Fire set visit. As mentioned in the latter, the press release stated that fans can also enter through the Hunger Games Adventures iPad app. Unfortunately, the press release never stated HOW you can enter through the new iPad app! Wonder no further, Hunger Games fans!

As you can see, all you have to do is screen cap your character (press the home and power button at the same time), and send it to entry@CatchingFireAdventures.com. They will send you an email back with a link to a sweepstakes entry page! May the odds be ever in your favor...

Capitol Party To Be Filmed at Swan House in Atlanta

More Catching Fire locations! The Swan House in Atlanta is apparently set to film a Capitol party scene:

Thanks to one of our tipsters we’ve now learned the Swan House will be used for a party scene for The Capitol on Sept 26, 27, 28. They also told us the shoot will include some custom-made costumes for the party goers, including a suit made out of bricks.
There was also a casting call posted last week for dancers who can waltz which would make sense for an elaborate party scene.

According to the home’s website, it is “an elegant, classically styled mansion built in 1928 for the Edward H. Inman family, heirs to a cotton brokerage fortune.” The website also notes the historic mansion will be closed from September 17 – 28.

Katniss Cosplay at Comikaze Expo!

If you've been with us in the past year, you'd remember that we went to the first Comikaze Expo in LA and was quite disappointed to see a lack of Hunger Games spirit there. Unfortunately, we were unable to go this year, but luckily G4 has posted an AWESOME Katniss cosplayer:

Too bad we weren't able to go, we would have asked this fine human being how she got the hookups on her outfit! If you're out there.....contact us so that we may give you our praises!

The Hunger Games Adventures Available for iPad!

FUNTACTIX AND LIONSGATE ANNOUNCE THE HUNGER GAMES ADVENTURES FOR iPad IS NOW AVAILABLE

Funtactix, a worldwide developer and publisher of social games based on the world’s premiere entertainment brands, in partnership with Lionsgate, today announced that The Hunger Games Adventures – the official social game for the Hunger Games franchise – is now available for iPad. With this release, tablet gamers can now explore what Facebook gamers have continued to enjoy in-game, including new, authentic Hunger Games stories and content such as the Map of Panem!

Since its debut in March on Facebook alongside the release of the blockbuster film in theaters, The Hunger Games Adventures has quickly become one of the top adventure games on the platform, receiving stellar reviews from critics and fans alike across its player base of millions. As tablet and mobile gaming continues its rapid growth, Funtactix and Lionsgate have provided a new way for fans of all ages to experience the game on the iPad.

“Bringing The Hunger Games Adventures to the iPad allows a new group of fans to experience what millions have played on Facebook,” said Sam Glassenberg, CEO of Funtactix. ”Using the iPad’s touch screen creates a more intimate and accessible experience for fans as they journey through the deep, authentic world on a quest to become the next hero of Panem.”

In The Hunger Games Adventures, players embark on a daring adventure beyond the fence of District 12, getting a chance to explore the other districts in Panem for the very first time. By completing new chapters, fans uncover character back-stories and receive new and exclusive content from The Hunger Games franchise, not available anywhere else. Along the journey, they are accompanied by their favorite characters – including Katniss, Peeta and Gale – for help and guidance as they complete quests and explore the vast universe of Panem.

Funtactix and Lionsgate continue to work together to provide the game’s audience with a steady flow of fresh, dynamic content that continues the story of The Hunger Games universe in between film releases. Recently, players were presented in game with the first-ever map of Panem depicting the actual locations of Districts 2, 11 and 12 as well as the Capitol in the post-apocalyptic world created by Collins. Revealing such a central piece of a major global franchise's canon inside a social game had never been done before. The release of the map of Panem raises social gaming to a whole new level: realizing the potential of social games as a mature gaming and storytelling platform. The remaining districts will be revealed to both iPad and Facebook players as they are introduced to the game.

The Hunger Games Adventures is now available for free from the App Store on iPad or at: http://itunes.apple.com/app/hunger-games-adventures-official/id559845361?mt=8

 If you listen to the #HGFiresideChat frequently (If you dont, something is seriously wrong with you) you'll remember the episode in which we discussed The Hunger Games Adventures official map of Panem. We had theories on where District 4 might be located, and it turns out our prediction was correct! Pretty cool!

For those who don't know, Lionsgate has been releasing the official location of the districts through the Hunger Games Adventures facebook game.

Catching Fire Possible Shooting Locations

Here's what the haps are on shooting locations for Catching Fire!

In addition to the GWCC we’ve heard from a few sources that filming is (or will soon be) taking place at The Goat Farm Arts Center in Atlanta as well as Amicalola Falls in Dawsonville.
As for the cast, they seem to be spending a lot of time in North Druid Hills, where it is rumored they are staying for the duration of the shoot.
According to a source on the set, Liam Hemsworth and Jennifer Lawrence were both there yesterday and Jennifer was spotted working with the bow and arrow.

Goat Farm Arts Center

Amicalola Falls

If these reports are true, looks like Amicalola Falls couldn't be used for anything else but the woods of District 12. As for the Goat Farm Arts Center, it may be used for anything in victory tour but more than anything looks like something that might be used for District 12. According to this article, productions signs will say "GCX"

Oh and one last note for those of you who live in the area and planning on stalking the sets: DON'T BE CREEPERS!
