YES! I knew I recognized Ben! He played the villain in The Mask of Zorro! Captain Love…with the Custer hair-do. I loved that movie.

Yeah I want to see the movie again, but have no urge to re-read the book. Lawrence was crazy good.

That is probably why I liked it so much. It could have easily been horrible. And honestly, movie!Katniss is WAY cooler than book!Katniss.

I actually thought it worked fine, because the Capitol is supposed to be kind of bizarre, but I couldn't help thinking when they panned around Katniss and Peeta's penthouse, how seriously outdated that 'future' is going to look in like 20 years.

I actually wasn't bothered by the character names in Hunger Games…until this week when I started reading the movie reviews. Now they all sound really stupid.

Except they completely destroy Ron's character in it. But yeah, otherwise it's good.

According to a writer at Wired, Jennifer Lawrence has excellent archery skill.

Compared to the movie, the book Battle Royale (which came first ) is deep and goes into tons of background stories and the psychology of the players (its way better)

I always miss the promo for next week…or does FOX just not do those?

I think I understand hunting!

Cool thanks. Sounds like it's pretty safe, but my perspective is skewed because anything over a 2.0 on NBC is pretty safe.

Does this show get decent ratings? I want it to come back next year but I never pay attention to ABC ratings.

Schmidt was great, but the Nick/Winston stuff was annoying. This is the first New Girl ep I actually skipped a scene. Also, not enough Cece

Agreed…uuuuuuuuugh he was fucking adorable. I wish they'd make more

All they physical humor had me in stitches. Dave and the mannequin's bra, Alex crumping, and for some reason any time Penny dropped her food. I also liked the shopping cart race. Great episode

No because Archer didn't make it sad, it made it rampage-y.

I guess I liked the episode….I liked Jess's stuff this week. I dunno the emotional beats were a little off in some spots for me. The episode definitely felt kind of confused about what it wanted to be.

I also liked the callback to Schmidt feeling bad that he hasn't seen his best friend's penis.

Agreed, but New Girl can't be THAT real every week I guess.

I was totally offended by the HORRIFIC Dutch accent used in the episode. The show needs to do something amazing soon to make up for it.
