Merchandise Wish-List

NextMovie's District 14 column most recently featured a tongue-in-cheek "wish list" for Hunger Games merchandise. Their picks range from the realistic -- such as Cinna's gold eyeliner and an actual video game -- to the more whimsical, like Haymitch-inspired spirits and flaming Halloween costumes.

AMC Cast Interviews

FAME: Suzanne Collins Reviews

Some fan sites have started posting their reviews of FAME: Suzanne Collins, a biographical comic book about the author of The Hunger Games. You can pre-order the comic now, which is highly recommended -- as it's expected to sell out, and pre-ordering is the only way to guarantee you get a copy!

Here's a look at what sites are saying about it:

"Suzanne is notoriously private and not into the whole social networking movement (hell, her website is still heralding the upcoming release of Mockingjay), but Sara has dug up the facts and inspiration behind her career that has information that even we didn’t know!"

- Victor's Village

"A nice little addition to a Hunger Games fan collection."

- Mockingjay.net

"This is not one to be missed!"

- Welcome to District 12

"The comic offers something for everyone. Newbies to the fandom will enjoy the behind-the-scenes look into Collins’ career and, while Collins’ is notoriously private and does not provide information on her personal life, die hards won’t want to pass up on this Hunger Games collectible."

- The Hob
