Parenting

I have a lot of feelings.

So, I've been watching Catching Fire at least once a day for the last week. 

Yesterday I started reading the book again during my downtime. 

The movie is better than the book.  It makes more sense and it flows better. 

I can't remember the last time I thought a movie was better than the book. 

I'm having difficulty processing these emotions.

Re: I have a lot of feelings.

  • I finally saw Catching Fire this last weekend... I liked it alot.

    But I'm going to wince in preparation and confess that I've...only seen the movies and have not read these books.

    I usually do like to read books before seeing movies based on them...but lately, aint nobody got time....

  • The books are really quick reads.  I got through, like, 93% of the book in a few hours yesterday.

    Yeahhh I know but like... lazy.  That's my real excuse.  Bad me. 

     I've been trying to read Jane Eyre for like 2 months now and I'm only half way through, but I'm going to blame that one on school starting so ... guess I have to study sometimes and shiz.

  • How can you watch a movie once a day? The ENTIRE movie?

    Also the last time I really thought  a movie was better than the book was Devil Wears Prada
    I put it on as background noise when I work.  I watched it the first time one night after the girls went to bed.

  • What's a tape?  JK

    Maybe I'll have to give that a try ...I just always assumed I might fall asleep or it wont feel as fulfilling... I like to just read at my own pace as I fly away in my mind and escape.

    I do need to make a point to do it more often for sure... Reading is nice.

  • Movie Peeta is cute... especially in the second one.  First one he looked kind of awkward at first and then got cuter as it went on...and then in the second I was like helloooo
    high five!

  • I read the first book but not two or three. The catching fire movie was awesome. Just really exciting. Not a peeta fan though. That drip always needs saving.

    Yep.
    If given the choice between Josh and Liam, I would have a really hard time choosing but I'm 100% sure I would ultimately go with "threesome".

  • Liams good too... but I actually prefer Chris, between the Hemsworth brothers

    Finnick was hot too... but a SMIDGE too pretty... a smidge.  I wouldnt kick him out of bed though

  • I've only seen the second movie once, but DH just bought it for me, so I can't wait to watch it again...and again...and again. 

    I don't know that I could say one was better than the other in terms of second book or second movie.

  • I was NOT a fan of Movie Peeta in the first one.  He is growing on me in Catching Fire.  I'm still a bigger fan of Book Peeta, but I'm glad the tide is turning for me.
