Why Lionsgate needs me as their PR-advisor

Hey dear Lionsgate people, it’s me, FyreSparks! Since the Hunger Games is now out on imdbPro (which means it slowly gets real) and there are some difficult decisions coming up for you guys, I decided to give you a few tips. You know, cause I’m such a pro when it comes to books and movies and books turned into movies. Alright, here we go!

The Lionsgate list to ultimate fan-happiness

Get this man! Now!

1. Do not hire Cathy Hardwicke as director. Maybe ask Peter Jackson instead cause he totally knows how to pull of stuff like that. Hello? 11 Oscars for Lord of the Rings – Return of the King alone. Do I have to say anything else?

2. Do not hire the New Moon wig department. Honestly, have you seen what they did to Jackson Rathbone aka Jasper?

3. Do hire Howard Shore or Hans Zimmer to compose the score. Cause they rule! Plus they are my all time favorites when it comes to composers for movie scores. So just call them. Please.

Do NOT get this guy though!

4. Do not hire anyone of the Twilight cast just to profit from their popularity. Cause that’s just not right. Bella can’t be Katniss and Jacob can’t be Gale and most of all, Mike Newton CANNOT be Peeta. Ever. Just saying.

5. Do not split the last book into two movies, however long it might be. I hate when there are breaks in the movies. Cause it ruins the mood. Splitting a book in two is like a 6 months long break. Not cool. I never understood why someone would do this except to gain more money in the box office. There’s a reason why Casablanca is considered a classic and cinema heirloom even though it’s like 5 hours long. Consider that!

Do NOT get this woman either! Her face is FROZEN...

6. Do not hire someone whose face is so damaged by botox that she can no longer act properly. Have you seen Nicole Kidman in The Golden Compass? I still think it’s partly her fault I didn’t like the movie even though I loved the book… Oh woman, what have you done to your once pretty face?

7. Do hire someone who is super hot aka sexiest man alive 2015 and 2016 for the roles of Peeta and Gale. Cause hot actors are bound to lure girls and women into the theaters. Plus if there are always two Bond Girls I feel like we deserve two sexy guys to look at as well!

8. Don’t forget to release an absolutely awesome first trailer at least six months before the movie premieres.

9. Don’t forget to hold back some of the best, most anticipated scenes to surprise us on the day when we will actually sit in the movie theaters to watch “The Hunger Games” for the first time.
(Concerning numbers 8 and 9 you could just say don’t do it like Summit! First they throw out like every important scene New Moon has to offer and then they don’t give us the slightest glimpse of Eclipse. Big fail!)

10. Make this movie epic and awesome and not one of that fits into the “good books – bad movies” category. Cause we need it to be good and to not suck! Kthxbye.

FyreSparks returns from being MIA… and brings Peeta with her

First of all I wanna apologize for being MIA, neglecting this blog and not writing a new post in two weeks straight! Sorry! But today I’m finally returning and I brought some quite good stuff with me if I do say so myself! First of all enjoy one of the Valentine conversation hearts I made back in February. Guess who it is I made that one for… 😉

And then, remember I talked about how I found someone who really kinda looks like my Peeta? So, let me introduce you to him! Here he is, his name is Sterling Knight:

Yes, I know that he played in a couple of Disney Channel series. No, I don’t care and I never watched one single episode. I wouldn’t mind if he looked a little older but hey, he still has some time left before they start shooting the Hunger Games movie so… And because I know that’s what you think about now: No, it is not a good idea to Google Image search him. Just don’t! Trust me! Cause you’ll only find childish pics where he doesn’t look like Peeta. I had to look for ages to find those two gems above. But hey, I’m pretty sure he will do a sexy photoshoot anytime soon! 😉

So what about you, have you found your Peeta yet? Any suggestions? Tell ma about it! Just leave a comment or e-mail me!

So glad I’m finally back to posting again

Who should play Gale Hawthorne?

Definitely not my Gale Hawthorne... even though he most definitely has the abs!

Only a short post today, but I promise one a bit longer over the next few days! Just another thing I noticed while watching all those “my favorite Hunger Games cast” videos. While simply everyone seems to wish for Alex Pettyfer as Peeta, there are about one hundred different versions of “my perfect Gale”. Just one thing when it comes to the question who should play Gale Hawthorne: It’s NOT Taylor Lautner! Why keep people suggesting him all the time? Don’t get me wrong! I think he’s hot, oh yes! And I may or may not have seen New Moon several times just for him and the wolfpack. But Jacob from New Moon just can’t be Gale from the Hunger Games as well. Not that I would mind if Gale had Taylor’s abs though… 😉

I looked around and googled different things but so far unfortunately have not found one single guy who looks at least a little bit like Gale does in my imagination… but I’ll let you know as soon as I come across someone, promise!

So what about you? Do you think it strange how many people obviously want Taylor Lautner as Gale? Any own suggestions? Have you already found your perfect Gale? Let me know! Leave a comment or send me over some pics if you want to!

Let the search for Gale begin!

Find the perfect Hunger Games cast on Youtube… or maybe not

As I promised in the Alex Pettyfer post, here are some of the videos about the perfect Hunger Games cast I watched on Youtube so far. There are about 150 more to go… So here we go!

Okay, if Mike Welch plays Gale I’m so NOT gonna watch this movie. Plus half of those people are too young to play anyone’s parent. Just saying.

No, Taylor Lautner should NOT play Gale. Period. He’s already Jacob so he simply can’t be Gale as well. But I love Jack Nicholson as Haymitch here. Cause in that picture he So looks like a drunkard… 😉

Okay, I guess two is enough for now. Maybe I should start a series and post a few “cast” videos every two weeks or so. What do you think? Who would be your favorite actors for a Hunger Games movie? You can leave a comment or e-mail me!

Go to Youtube to watch the rest of the 190 videos if you got nothing else to do 😉

Alex Pettyfer – is he everyone’s Peeta?

Peeta with a six-pack? Uhm, yes please!

This is my first real post here (I don’t count “Welcome to The District13 Post” cause that was merely an introduction). So when I had finished the books and read that Lionsgate wanted to turn the Hunger Games into a movie, I headed over to Youtube and watched thirty-four a few of the “my favorite cast for the Hunger Games” videos. And what really stunned me was the fact that EVERYONE chose Alex Pettyfer as Peeta. To be honest, I looked him up on IMBD cause I didn’t really know who he was. Yeah, sorry. So what is it about him that makes him everybody’s Peeta?

Dude, what happened to your nose?

Okay, he’s blonde. And yes, there are definitely pics of him where he looks hot (Damn that guy has abs!). Only thing that confused me: Uhm, can anyone tell me what happened to his nose? Cause in my mind Peeta did NOT have a broken nose that healed badly. I mean, Alex’ nose looks kind of crooked here… So what happened? Either it’s just the light or Alex had indeed a broken nose. Whatever, if he keeps looking hot like that I might consider him as my personal Peeta as well. We can still pretend there had been an accident in the bakery or that his mother slapped him in the face so hard after he had given the bread to Katniss that his nose got damaged. Don’t worry Alex, if we really want you as the boy with the bread we’ll find an excuse for that. Promise.

Hey Alex, think about doing a hot photoshoot anytime soon. Just saying.

So what do you think about Alex Pettyfer? Is he your Peeta too? What is your personal dream-cast for the Hunger Games movie? Let me know please! Send me an e-mail or just leave a comment! Oh, and does anyone know what it is with his nose?

Welcome to The District13 Post – The first Hunger Games Newsletter

Okay, to be honest this is not a real newsletter. It’s merely a blog to talk about Hunger Games news, videos, thoughts… basically everything that comes to my mind an concerns Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games books. And I named it The District13 Post cause I like to pretend that it’s the newspaper from the mysterious District 13. Like The Washington Post. Only a bit less serious ifyouknowwhatimean. The reason why I decided to start this blog? I read the books and I loved them. I was completely captivated. But since we have to wait more than half a year for the third book to be published, I tried to get my “fix” online. Wanna know what I found? Uhm, not that much to be honest… There are thousands of Twilight-blogs but only about twenty sites dedicated to the Hunger Games? Seriously? don’t get me wrong, I’m not hating on the Twi-blogs here as I may or may not read some of them frequently. I just couldn’t understand why there are so few Hunger Games blogs. Guess the number will explode as soon as the movie comes out though. Cause we know there will be a movie sooner or later. And I hope that it will not suck… Keep your fingers crossed! In the meantime I try to post something new here maybe not every single day but as often as I can manage. You know, I still got a real life and stuff… 😉

So let’s get it started

Yep, I wrote fire with a “y”. No, it’s no accident, I did this on purpose. Cause I like it better that way plus it’s my blog and I’m kind of the editor in charge, so I can make the rules here 😉 Might take me a few days to get the blog completely set up and to make it all look nice and stuff, sorry! I’ll hurry, promise! Meanwhile, why don’t you just leave a comment?
