These have been floating around the blogosphere quite a bit, but in case you haven't seen them, the Hunger Games movie posters are out, featuring the profile of each character.
Here's Katniss. The first time I saw the actress who would play her, I was cringing, but now, I'm really happy with the choice. She looks tough and even rather like I imagined her, especially with the dyed hair.
Gale looks so much better in this picture than he did when I first saw him in the announcement. With this view, I can believe that he'll make a good Gale.
Peeta looks PERFECT here, from the hair right down to the expression on his face.
Effie looks a bit scary here, like a dragon or something, so I'm not too sure how I feel about it. The make-up seems to fit her, though.
I'm sorry, but there's no way that could be Haymitch. It must be a mistake, right? No? Oh God.
Rue is perfect in every single way. I already know what scene I'm going to be shedding tears in.
Cato is awesome. He has this determination and hardness to his face that goes so well with his character.
I'm sorry, but there's no way this can really be Cinna. Hopefully his acting skills make up for it.
What do you think of these?

I wish I could relate and agree/disagree with your opinions, but I still need to read the book! I totally can't wait for the movie though. :) :)
I agree with a lot of your opinions! I loved the books and I hope the movies are good as well!

I really like the posters but I'm with you on Haymitch. I can't wait for the film & think they might actually pull it off! :)
Let's see...I also cringed when they revealed the actress playing Katniss, but they have won me over. I am not at all happy with Gale. At all. I have tried and tried to get the movie Gale to fit with my head, and it hasn't worked. Peeta though, I'm quite happy with. Rue, too. Haymitch, not so much, but I think I'll survive. And, to my surprise, I am thrilled with Cinna. He doesn't fit with the picture I had in my head, but somehow the movie Cinna seems even better than "Melody's Head Cinna." Anyway. :) Regardless of all the choices, I am stoked and can't wait for a real trailer! :)
I LOVE the way they've transformed Jennifer and Josh into Katniss and Peeta! They both look great. I'm still not on board with Gale though.... EGH. I'm not a huge fan of the Cinna they chose either but I did like that they kept the detail of him wearing the gold eyeliner. And Rue? BEYOND PERFECT!!!!
My friend read this and raved about it. I'm definitely going to put this on my list.
