The Hunger Games: Part I

I can't hold in my excitement any longer.  I am going to see the first installment of The Hunger Games movie trilogy tomorrow!  Pumped does not even begin to describe it.  I read all of the books nearly an entire year ago.  I really enjoyed each one of them.  In fact, I enjoyed them so much that I read all three books in less than one week (and I was working full-time).  It made me feel so accomplished (even though the books have a middle school reading level).  I have spent so much time trying to convince my friends to borrow my copies so that they can enjoy The Hunger Games craze, too.  "Trust me, you will like them.  I PROMISE!"

I know most of the United States has already experienced the newest cinematic hit, but I am very picky about going to blockbuster movies.  While ordinarily I want to be "part of it all,"  I cannot stand to have people (mainly young ladies) talking and squealing during a movie.  So, I prefer to wait about a week after opening night to see the movie for myself.  The downside?  After a week of hearing how fabulous something is, I can hardly wait to purchase my ticket and find my seat.
