This is great. Too bad Scholastic won’t fill my orders. I have NO STOCK on any of these supposedly hot titles. That means no accounts in New England have them either.

Dear scholastic. I love The hunger games trilogy to death. But don’t assume that because I am a fan of the book I am a fan of the movie. I will always grieve that of all the people who wanted to adapt this book we had to get Nina,, Gary, Debra zane (casting director of the twilight saga) and Lionsgate. They have shown a lot of disrespect for the book and for the fandom. Just the poster above your heads show how they didn’t get to care about Katniss and Peeta.

THG is a YA book yes, but it’s not like only YA read and love the trilogy. The whole marketing of the movie is alienating the mature part of the fandom. You don’t expect us to be fans of Taylor swift music right?And we are not illiterate at all. We know about art, we know about how movies are cast, we know how the academy votes.
This movie could have had a good cast, not only the cheapest safest choices to secure the box office. We shouldn’t have to sacrifice looks for acting skills and even those acting skills are questionable. Having an oscar nomination doesn’t make you a good actress.

Attention to detail and a charismatic cast is what made the whole Harry potter movie successful with people of all ages. If the actor portraying peeta is not wearing blue contacts, if the actress portraying katniss found too hard to avoid certain foods before the filming began, if the costume design looks so cheap, if the trailer is so confusing, that is not attention to detail.

I don’t remember scholastic ever publishing a Harry Potter movie edition. The covers were so beautiful. But even if they had the majority of the fandom found the 3 actors chosen to play the HP leads (chosen after having thousands of auditions for months) to be of our taste. I wouldn’t have minded a movie edition. But , Do you really expect us to like a cast who was chosen from a very limited pool of actors in a very limited and racist casting call?

Don’t be surprised if this book don’t sell as much as you expect.

Lynn — we’d like to hear more about your ordering issues. Can you please email us at clubs.socialmedia@scholastic.com? Thanks.

YAY FOR THE HUNGER GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <333333333

OMG I AM LIKE THE WORLDS BIGGIST HUNGER GAMES FAN! I Will For Sure Be Getting This!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just can’t wait for the movie!

I just hope the people who are already dissing it don’t ruin the praise this movie should get. just because some people (most) don’t like twilight it doesn’t mean its a bad thing to have the casting director for THG. Have absolute faith in the actors.
Just have faith it will be GREAT

I totally agree what Myra said. I could’t describe it better!

For now I see this movie as vague and superficial try to make it somehow watch-able that’s all. Shame! It would have been a BLAST of all times! ^__^

I just do not understand why everyone has to be so critical of the movie. I think it could be great. We don’t know; we have not seen it. The trailer was a little confusing, but I don’t think that or the cast is going to make this a bad movie. Also, I really do not think any version of this movie could ever be as amazing as the book trilogy. I have read many books that have been made into movies and I think that the best way to handle it is to go in open minded with no expectation of it being worse than or as good as the book. I think making the movie geared towards young adults will get the younger audience interested in reading the book.

As a mom, raising kids in the social media generation things like this that causes debate or makes kids one to read more is plus.
