Catching Fire National Victory Tour

 Did you know this was happening? The "victory tour" is actually going around to 4 cities across the country this weekend. I guess our small city isn't one on the list this year...maybe next year?

In addition to these stops, on November 6th fans around the world will be able to interact with talent all day through Google, Yahoo!, Tumblr, Twitter and Facebook.  Also, tweet with #TickTock6 & your questions for the cast and you could see them answered during the Nov. 6th event!

More details HERE

Sponsor: Doug Smith Autoplex

Our biggest sponsor to date this event is Doug Smith Auto. We are so honored that they would choose us {SagaGirls & The Autism Council of Utah} as their charity to support. They are a great company to use if you are looking for a new car. It is worth the drive. Click HERE to visit their website.

Jennifer, Jenny, Jen

 Ms. Jennifer just seems like someone I could sit down and call Jen right off the bat and be instant friends. She is a woman who speaks her mind and isn't afraid to be who she is. I just read on Jennifer Lawrence Daily (did you know that was a thing?) that she is also someone who cares BIG. She has set up a premiere event showing of the movie in her hometown to raise funds for St. Mary's Center. Read all the details HERE. She too, like many of the cast, has been busy working long hours to make us all happy she has 3 films coming out in the next couple of months and here is what she has already to see....

The Devil You Know
Young Zoe

 2012House at the End of the Street
Elissa

 2012Silver Linings Playbook 

Now I saw Silver Lining and LOVED it! I loved that she won some credit for it. I have yet to see the House at the End of the Street, because I am a bit of a scaredy cat, but I think that might be a Halloween treat for myself.

So now what's been up with Josh?

I have to say...I haven't kept up with this actor. I honestly don't know what he has been up to. Oops. Have you? Have you been following his every move? Or movie choice? Why is it that I am less likely to follow him? I thought he did a great job as Peeta. So I guess that shows you where my loyalties lie right? If you are curious here is what he has been doing.

Epic
Nod (voice)

 2012Red Dawn
Robert Kitner

 2012The Forger
Joshua

 20127 Days in Havana 

I've Been Missing Liam

Mr. Liam has been busy. He hasn't just dumped Miley, but he has also been busy working and making movies. YAY! I think between the brothers of "Hemsworths" my preference is Chris, but Liam fell from the same tree and didn't hit too many branches. ;) Have you seen any of these?

Paranoia
Adam Cassidy

 2013Empire State
Chris

 2013Love and Honor
Mickey Wright

 2012The Expendables 2
Billy The Kid

Being that I love my Hubby I did see Expendables 2 and I thought he did a good job in that, but that is where my devotion has ended. I had no idea he did 3 other movies. I gotta get watching....

Have you seen any? Which one should be a definite must see?

Well, and since we brought up Miley (even though she is not in Hunger Games)  I want to talk about her. At first I wanted to scream at her mother and father for letting their little girl go through this on public television. I wanted to run to her aid, but then I remembered Brittany, Christina, and every other Disney star making their break from their previous "perfect doll" reputation. They all do it. They all break that so that they can move on. And while searching for things about Liam this came up.....



She doesn't seem so crazy any more. And to be honest....I like her music. I think she has a beautiful voice. I will choose not to watch her dance and not to let my girls see her dance EVER, but I see it as she is growing and that takes courage to do it in front of the world. Plus, it didn't hurt her record sales right? I mean she got everyone talking about her and not the break up. Smart PR.

Did I give in too easily? Should I stand with Bitty Nation and not let her singing in my house?

What are they doing? Woody Harrelson

Are you wondering what Woody has been up to? Working...He has been in "Seven Psychopaths", "Now You See Me", and the TV series "True Detective". Have you seen any of these? I really love Woody as Haymitch. He is my 2nd favorite casting that they did. I did go see Seven Psychopaths, which was funny and Woody did a great job being a crazy. It was fast paced and witty. I need to get catching up though. I had no idea he was in a TV series.

Have you got your Panem ID?

The PR for Catching Fire is well underway and I wonder are you as in to it?

Have you purchased any new merchandise?

I love that they are keeping up their PR from Hunger Games. And here is a chance to get a new ID...

Did you get an ID last time? Have you already gotten yours updated? Does this help get you hyped?

Not watching the Trailer

I know we have complained before about movies being spoiled by their trailers. But seriously, they do. I will not be watching any trailers so that nothing is spoiled for me, but that didn't stop me from finding some pictures and looking through them all. Does this make you excited? What will you be dressing as? You know there is a costume portion right? Go big or go home!!

Who thinks they can replicate Effie?

I snuck a listen to Christina Aguilera's song HERE

And on YouTube I found Ellie Goulding singing "Mirrors", but I don't know if it is the correct song....I love her, so no matter what I am excited to see her on the play list. Anything you are giddy over?

Are you reading?

We have a month and some change before the big event and I want to know...are you reading again? Do you like to see all the changes? Or do you prefer to have a distant memory of what happened and not have a vivid idea of the things you hate they changed?

If any of you are like me...have a couple kiddos...run around like crazy all day...and can't remember what you ate for breakfast a mere 2 hours after it happened then maybe it won't matter. I honestly can't remember the little details so I will be reading again. I will be devouring each page like it was the first time yet again. What are you most excited to see come alive on the big screen? What are you hoping they skip over? Is there anything? I'll be posting as I re-read...it may be slow because, um...I am reading 2 other books at the same time right now. {I just love to make myself crazy}
