Yes, the pic is soundstage-y and everything is weirdly shiny, but IDGAF!  I can totes picture what she'll look like all dirty and bloody prowling the forest in my mind and it is amazing!

And a bigger, clearer version of the EW cover! )

New JLaw Interview )

She's so awkward, I love her.  The dark hair also gives her a sort of effortless sensuality, which is of course very relevant to my interests.

I cannot wait to see her in glorious motion!  Also, I really must make a point to finish Mockingjay soonish.  

And now ... here's some fun quotes from Jennifer Lawrence who I'm falling more and more in love with every time she opens her mouth! )

Adorable, thy name is Jennifer Lawrence.


Part 2 of the Interview behind the cut ... )

I hope she does more interviews when X-Men: First Class comes out, cause she's hilarious.  I also already know that I'mma ship Emma/Mystique when the movie comes out, cause my new girl!crush on Jen means that I must femslash her and Winter's Bone was too depressing, and The Hunger Games movie won't really offer any possibilities either.

The controversy over Jennifer Lawrence being cast as Katniss in Hunger Games is confusing the hell out of me.  Basically, people are saying that casting blonde, blue-eyed Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen is Hollywood white-washing at work, but I don't get it.

In the novel Katniss is described as having dark hair, grey-eyes and olive skin, while her mother and sister are described as grey-eyed, blonde's.  The family sounds fairly caucasian to me.  From the vague descriptions in the book it's impossible to tell what exact ethnicity Katniss is, but I think it's safe to say that she's not black, brown, asian or aboriginal, so the rage and indignance that is going on right now about the character being "white-washed" is so confusing to me.

No one denies that white-washing and race-switching is a problem in Hollywood movies, I just think that the casting of Jennifer Lawrence in this particular movie is a weak example to get into such a large snit about.  This is not The Last Airbender, Prince of Persia:The Sands of Time, or 21.
