I haven't read The HUNGER Games, but considering the title, would it be a stretch to cast a really skinny actress for the role?

I haven't seen/read them either but that question has always seemed pertinent to me. It's a plot hole that TV writers won't even deignto recognize.

To be fair to Sam. He is suppose to be a terrible Fat coward from a noble house. So they cast correctly there.

The prior movie was pretty good; I expect the current one to be good also.

The premise is quite ridiculous, but it is good enough to make you forgive that. Also, the Hunger Games 'universe' allows for a lot of backstory and fan fiction. I've never been into that stuff, but I love worlds that are complex and hashed-out enough to support it. The Matrix, for example, really missed its chance to build a comprehensive universe where fan fiction could flourish. It could support something a bit like steampunk, except where electricity is used while computers are not. That would be pretty cool.

Yeah, there was a comment a while ago that said that of course they didnt cast a fat actress in the role, the movie is called the hunger games not the well fed games.

The books were pretty alright.
