    With the cast heading to Atlanta to start filming, like NOW, do you think they’ll have Jen and Josh and Liam at that party? That would be awesome! :) Doubt it, but it’s interesting that that particular city is “TBA” at the moment…..just sayin’ :)

    Hunger Games Release My mother and I went to the Walmart in pembroke pines Florida. No party NO trading cards that were promised on website Nothing!!!!!! I am 11 and was dressed up because they said on the release party site they would have a costume contest. They had no idea what we were talking about!!! We were there from 11pm on August 17 and we just stood there untill they gave us the DVD that we could have gotten in the morning. I begged my mom to go so I can get the free stuff they promised on websites but I had gotten nothing!!!!! People passed us and didn’t acknowledge us.
