"Thank you for your consideration."

Last night I watched The Hunger Games with my family. I liked it, it was fun. I enjoyed trying to decode the reality TV logic of the games themselves, even though I watch very little reality TV myself. The mixed optimism and cynicism of the romance arc was oddly appealing, too. Katnis herself seems exactly like the type of heroine I enjoy, a little stiff and rough around the edges and not very "feisty" or "spirited" but instead a bit more genuinely angry-mad. Maybe I'm projecting something, though.

I'm looking forward to the sequel. Jennifer Lawrence is starting to really get under my skin.
