I loveeeeee the Hunger Games!!! Best movie I’ve seen in a long time and whoever chose the cast, you did awesome because one, I love how you chose Josh Hutcherson for the role of Peeta and Jessica Lawrence for Katniss. It’s perfect! And Rue and Thresh were like my favorites. Except Peeta haha I love him! But if you guys could, email me and you guys should totally come down to Indianapolis, IN and like do an interview or signing pictures thing because you guys are amazing!!!! And by the way, Amanda, you did an amazing job playing Rue and don’t anybody tell you otherwise!(:

I just saw this movie two days ago. You both did a fantastic job. You both played your parts really well. Not many movies make me cry on death scenes, but Amandla, you really did. You and Dayo have a bright future in the buissness of acting and I look forward to your upcoming projects. Please get the cast to New Orleans or McComb,Ms. We would love to have you down here. Best of wishes :Omarr Peters, McComb High School, McComb Ms.
