Roll out the red carpet, the fans have arrived! The Hunger Games feature film premiered on Friday, March 23rd, 2012, at midnight. At the New York City AMC Lincoln Plaza theater, fans arrived in style from their stretch underground, commuter limousines. They printed their pre-ordered invitations to one of twelve showings and entered early to take the best seats in the house and, to no surprise, many came in costume, including myself. But of course, the dolled-up fans attended without seeing the movie prior. They came up with their ideas from the trailers, clips, articles, promotional screen shots and photographs, and from their own visions developed when reading the Hunger Game novels. It involved a lot of creativity... So I thought it would be fun to hang out in the lobby and see how others dressed for the reaping. I mean, we did have time to kill. The star players were Katniss, Effie Trinket, and residents of the Capitol.
