First Trailer for THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE
Here is the first trailer for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. There is more darkness this time around, Katniss even gets punched in the face by a hired goon! President Snow (Donald Sutherland) is trying to tear down the inspiring image of Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and kill her. The movie will involve “Quarter Quell”, a special Hunger Games where past winners will be forced to fight to the death. Are you ready?
The film stars Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Sam Claflin, Elizabeth Banks, Woody Harrelson, Donald Sutherland, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jena Malone, Jeffrey Wright, and Amanda Plummer.
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire opens on November 22nd.
THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE begins as Katniss Everdeen has returned home safe after winning the 74th Annual Hunger Games along with fellow tribute Peeta Mellark. Winning means that they must turn around and leave their family and close friends, embarking on a “Victor’s Tour” of the districts. Along the way Katniss senses that a rebellion is simmering, but the Capitol is still very much in control as President Snow prepares the 75th Annual Hunger Games (The Quarter Quell) – a competition that could change Panem forever.

It’s finally here, the next franchise to go ape-shit over. The line ups are massive and it’s already breaking records. It earned $19.735M, which is a record for a non-sequel, the seventh-highest midnight gross of all time, and the highest IMAX non-summer, non-holiday, 2D opening of all time. I might be able to check it out this weekend, I will post a review.
THE RAID: REDEMPTION (limited), 4:44 LAST DAY ON EARTH (limited)

Real Time with Bill Maher (Friday, HBO) – Charles M. Blow, Fred Armisen, Glenn Greenwald, Wendy Schiller and Andrew Sullivan. Politics!
American Dad (Sunday, Fox) – David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel of “Bones” will be playing themselves. Elisabeth Shue guest stars as well. American Dad has been great this season, the best show on Sunday’s.
