I too was thrilled with the series and the recommendation! Will be interesting to see how the movie pans out and how they depict the arena and the capital. Not sure what I expected District 13 to look like, but it was definitely not the way it was portrayed in the book with strict rules/boundaries/etc. Was happy that they portrayed some of the players in the arena with "humanity", in that they were not all ready to just toss their "humanity" away and go straight for the killing... The shocking death of Prim, was definitely a tear jerker moment. Was happy that Katniss picked Peeta (finally). Thanks for the introduction to this fantastic series that I couldn't put down...love BDW!
