Once upon a time, January came for us and proclaimed itself supremely uninterested in taking prisoners. Under the sustained assault, there were simply too many avenues of stress tearing into my brain. On one side of the field stood so many books (as they have always been there for me) ready to be read—to help. And on the other side loomed a distressing number of chasms inside me desperate to find solace and reprieve. But the two could not meet. No matter how many peace talks I attempted to broker. In February, in a move so unprecedented that I can only describe it as a lifeline thrown down into the deepest of the chasms, my exhausted mind decided it would be a good idea to finally give fanfiction a whirl. Now, there's no getting around the fact that for someone who has read as many novels that involve fic in some way or another as I have—seriously, novels that began as fic, novels written by authors who got their start writing fic, novels about characters who write/illustrate/love...
AAAAHH!! I'm so excited!!
ReplyDeleteI KNOW!
DeleteI avoided clicking on the trailer until now for the very reason you listed, Angie, but I just couldn't resist any longer. Trailer is awesome! Cannot wait. But we'll have to. *cries*
ReplyDeleteHehe. Sorry to push you over the edge, Wendy. It looks SO good. Why is November so far away?
DeleteI got chills watching that!!!
ReplyDeleteSo did I, Lin! I'm vibrating with excitement.
DeleteCatching Fire was my favorite of the books, so I am crazy-excited for this movie. And I'm so interested in the political stuff they're adding in to explain what's happening beyond Katniss' POV. Eeeeeee!
ReplyDeleteIt's such a super middle book. I can't wait to see it all play out on the big screen.
Deletewhat! I hadn't even known this was out until this very moment. Wow. It looks even better than the first one and more true to the book. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt reduces me to a puddle of anxiety and excitement. Cannot wait.
DeleteNovember?! I thought it was going to be released in the summer for some reason. BLERG.
ReplyDeleteBut anyway, GALE. Interesting that they left Finnick out of the trailer.
Ugh. Depressing, isn't it?
DeleteYeah, I was kind of waiting to see the other victors (ESPECIALLY Finnick), but I'm kind of glad they didn't show them so there's more to anticipate.
It's entirely too long to wait. It looks awesome and I got prouder chills seeing Katniss, Peers and Haymitch in front of the whipping post.
ReplyDeleteThe whipping post . . . *sob*
DeleteI <3 Haymitch. Seeing the three of them together does make me proud. Mockingjay is likely going to kill me.
Awesome trailer! I am so in love with it and it's gonna be great! I'm soooo excited. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely going to be great.
Deletethat was beyond awesome! and we didn't even see the arena. looks a little more gritty and a little more funded. (who wouldn't throw more money to their cash cow?) i was excited for november, but now i can't wait. i had goosebumps.
ReplyDeleteI know! It seems like they took stuff just from the first section of the film. Which was smart, I think. I'm still jumpy.
DeleteI can not stop watching this!
ReplyDeleteIt's addicting. I love Jennifer Lawrence. I'm so glad she's Katniss.
Deletedefinitely waiting!! I've heard this is good.
ReplyDeleteSO good.
DeleteI'm so excited for this! I really liked the first movie so I think the 2nd one will be just as good.
ReplyDeleteSo did I! I'm so excited.
