Just saw the trailer for this movie...and I'm already psyched for it. Does anyone else have interest in this movie? I hear the books are supposed to be really good, so I'm intrigued to see how the movie will turn out.

I thought the books were great. Read them all within a week, I couldn't hardly pull myself away.
The movie was pretty good imo. I don't think it had quite the depth that the book had. Or at least if it was there, you don't realize it without having read the book.
One big difference I found was that reading about the first bloodbath, it didn't hit me hard at all really that it was a bunch of kids fighting, I was just enjoying the battle. Watching it though, even though it wasn't very graphic, the reality of it really hit. It added something to the movie that for me made it a slightly different but still excellent experience.

I'll have another say at this:
I have read the first two books (The Hunger Games and Catching Fire) and am currently almost 2/3 of the way through Mockingjay. I have yet to see the Catching Fire movie, but heard it was very good. Knowing what I have read of Mockingjay so far, I am wondering what that movie will consist of and how they will keep it flowing.
Has anyone else read the whole series and have any thoughts on the book-->movie translation?
