Just saw the movie, just heard the rumour. Got to hand to all of you. Especially nicolesymone for her poignant remarks. You go girl. Tell those silly white folks how silly they are. Personally if I were you I'd be more a little more pissed about the leading black character being portrayed as adept at climbing trees... but hey... I'm a little more traditional when it comes racial indignation. And for the rest of you... feel free to look up an online thesaurus or dictionary. I'm sure with those resources and a half an hour you should be able to figure out what the f*ck i'm talking about. For the record I think your all idiots. But then I think most people are idiots. Worst part is I'm not that smart. Kind of a grim reality when you think about it.... Good movie though.
I also did not picture Rue as black I did not really picture Prim or any others races either. I was a bit confused over the lack of similarity in size.
The actress that plays Rue is 13 years old . Just think about that, and then think about the things you are saying about her portraying Rue as an African American ..
Your president is Black... why can't a character in a book be Black?... Ignorance at all levels... wow!! Maybe we shoud allow you racists to put your names in the tribute bowl at the reaping if it existed. Katniss was not a racist.. surely she'd take you guys out.
