Haymitch Abernathy

If you're not a huge fan, forgive me. I promise not to make every post Hunger Games-related. But I am seriously torn on this one.

Entertainment Weekly conducted a poll to find out who readers thought should star in the Hunger Games movie. They had Katniss and Peeta and Gale ... blah blah blah ... they looked like pretty good picks. But I about died when I saw who they chose for Haymitch. Died of perfectness. (I know, not a word. Still: appropriate.)
Hugh Laurie: Pros: 1. He already knows how to act like a drug addict. 2. He looks a little underfed. 3. He seems smart. Cons: He wouldn't have lasted five minutes in the first Quarter Quell.

But now I'm all torn. Because the runner-up might be equally awesome as Haymitch.
Robert Downey Jr.: Pros: 1. He has "fighter" in him. 2. He can do eccentric. 3. He seems smart. Cons: Too handsome.

What do you think? I might lose sleep over this. Or maybe not. But, still curious.

P.S. They picked the PERFECT Effie. She won by a landslide. Wait for it ... Kristin Chenoweth. I know, right?

House as Haymitch sounds perfect!

AHH! You are RIGHT about the perfect Effie! And I would have to go with House... he has the look, the sarcastic attitude. Robert Downey Jr I'm sure would make a great Haymitch, except you are right-- he is FAR too handsome, and also too muscley!

Kristen Chenoweth is beyond perfect.

Hugh Laurie's attitude is spot on, but I always pictured Haymitch as having a serious beer belly.

Robert Downey Jr. also had the attitude thing going for him, but he's just too attractive.

As you know, I'm totally bored by this post. :) BUT on the positive side, I just saw your blog list of "cool blogs" over there on the right side and I just wasted a half hour of my life looking at crafts. :) Loved it, so thanks!

Whoa. These two couldn't be more perfect! Although, I think Hugh Laurie would be the better of the two. He's had more experience acting as "the jerk".

Laurie. Definitely.
