My Review of “The Hunger Games” /// A Book to Film Conversation

Let me preface by saying that Jennifer Lawrence was the perfect casting for the film’s protagonist, Katniss Everdeen. I’m not sure if anyone else could’ve pulled off this character with as much “believeability” as Jennifer did. She’s been on the map for a little while now, but I can only assume this cements her status as one of the brightest up and coming stars in Hollywood. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for Josh Hutcherson and his portrayal of Peeta Malark…if only because he’s shorter than Jennifer and that was really a distraction…but also because he just didn’t have the same charisma that the book’s version of Peeta had.

Just a bunch of images I mashed together of the character Ling Yao from, “Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.” I put it together for my, “Anime /// Favorite Characters” Pinterest board.  I just finished up the series in less then a week (don’t judge me…) and I was BLOWN AWAY with how good it was. Ling Yao ended up being one of my favorite characters, if not just hands down my favorite.  You can check out the first 3 “seasons” on Netflix streaming. For the last two, you can either rent them through Netflix on DVD, or watch it with subtitles via Funimation/Hulu. I actually didn’t mind watching the first 3 seasons dubbed and the last 2 subbed. Some voices were better one way, and vice versa. Some were simply just great in both versions (like Ling Yao, Scar, Wrath, Greed, etc.). It worked out.
