Alex Pettyfer as Finnick Odair

Now, I know many of you will hate me for this post.  But I agree to this more than him as Peeta.  As he looks now, I doubt he could pass as 16; even if he is only 20.

So, lets keep the hotness that is Alex and give him a well deserved roll!

Born 10 April 1990,  Alex is an English actor and model.  In June 2005, he was cast in his most prominent role so far, that of teenage MI6 spy Alex Rider in the film Stormbreaker, based on the novel by Anthony Horowitz.  Pettyfer will not reprise the role if there is another Alex Rider film because he is too old.

He next appeared in Wild Child, a movie set in California and Yorkshire. He played school boy Freddie Kingsley and he co-starred with Emma Roberts. He will star in the film Beastly, based on the novel by Alex Flinn;  to be released in 2010.

Love it or hate it?

This video and song lyrics may be graphic to some.

Please note this video contains footage from the film Schindler’s List and the violent acts of the Nazi party in the film. Viewers have been warned!

To be honest, how far off is the Capitol?

A Perfect Circle- Counting Bodies Like Sheep To The Rhythm Of The War Drums

Don’t fret precious I’m here.
Step away from the window.
Go back to sleep

Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
See, they don’t give a f*** about you, like I do.

Counting bodies like sheep
Counting bodies like sheep

Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Counting bodies like sheep

Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

(Repeats)

I’ll be the one to protect you from your enemies and all your demons
I’ll be the one to protect you from a will to survive and a voice of reason
I’ll be the one to protect you from your enemies and your choices son
They’re one in the same, I must isolate you…
Isolate and save you from yourself …

Do you think Gale’s tendency to act impulsively is a pro or a con?

How could his actions in Book Three hurt or save Katniss or Peeta?
