For those who missed it, great hilarity has been had making fun of the many, many, fans who were outraged at the decision to cast black actors for the black kids.
No, really.
There is always outrage about something. w/ harry potter it was the christians and witchcraft, with twighlight it was prolly the same thing only because it was teenaged vamps having sex. I think Lenny Kravitz will be great as Cinna. I don't know about Rue and Thresh but I am sure it's fine. yeesh.

there are no such things as 'tracker jackers' either. They are killer bees. They are muttations, engineered by the Capital--originally used in combat when the Disctrics rebelled.
They don't have beekeeper suits in the future?
Can't make makeshift ones with some fabric and swimming goggles, or whatever?

I'm not an engineer. I've never even sewn fabric before. But if motherfucking death bees were released in a conflict, I'd be cutting up some blankets and crudely stitching and duct taping them together into a suit.

when they're in the arena, supplies are limited. They have to fight for them, or fashion them from tree branches or what not. Or if they have sponsors in the Capitol, a little parachute might come down with some medicine or something that the person needs. because the whole thing is televised live and they know these things.

I didn't mean the games, but back during the war. The origin of the critters doesn't make a lot of sense*; now if they were created for the games, that'd be plausible.

If poisoning people isn't against their rules of war, and genetically engineered weaponized killer bees wasps obviously use poison, then why bother with them? Just use VX agent; which unlike wasps doesn't reproduce itself in the wild, so it's controllable. How does the Capitol keep the tracker jackers from spreading like mad, cane toad-style, and killing their own people?
