Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss from The Hunger Games

I rented this movie on a whim and laughed out loud when I saw that it actually has a character named Thresh in it.

Wow, so much emotion!
Although I was not pleased with the way the casting occurred for Katniss (Only Caucasian actresses were called for), Jennifer Lawrence is beautiful in an earthy, natural way and you really captured that here in her eyes and hair. This is gorgeous. I just wish she looked like Katniss- Katniss was described to have olive skin, black hair, and gray eyes.
Still an awesome piece of art though!

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. :)

As for the casting for the movie, you're preaching to the choir. I wasn't even familiar with the books when I heard about the movie's casting. But it angered me all the same. Hollywood pulls this kind of whitewashing crap all the time. While I love Jennifer Lawrence and thought she did a great job in the role, there are probably hundreds of young actresses of varying ethnicities that would have been amazing as Katniss too. It's a shame that most of them will never get the opportunities that they should just because significant roles for people of color are so few and far between. :(

Wow, I'm so glad you see it, too! Most people who paint Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss or just most Hunger Games fans in general are very stubborn and do not see the whitewashing.
I love Jennifer Lawrence... and although I enjoyed her portrayal of Katniss, she isn't really MY Katniss. I still enjoy watching the movies though, just seeing the rest of the book come to life is fun.
