Episode 38 of the Nightlock Podcast is now available! You can listen to it here.
Summary:
We announce a giveaway for the Unofficial Hunger Games Cookbook (signed by all us hosts!), to enter just follow @NightlockPod and RT this tweet! News stories include Jennifer Lawrence's new titles, a new HG reality show knock off, more leaked photos and an actor portraying two characters. New segment relates Greek Mythology to HG, specifically Diana, the Roman Goddess of the Hunt. While discussing Chapter 12 of Catching Fire, we contemplate why Haymitch and Plutarch didn't let Katniss in on the rebellion plans. Are Capitol citizens naive and oblivious because they were raised believing the Capitol's propaganda? Do you think Gale is motivated to be a catalyst in the rebellion because that is the only chance he has at being with Katniss romantically? Did the Capitol come up with the idea for the tributes to be selected from previous victors in order to halt the rebellion or had it been planned for decades? Don't forget to enter the giveaway!

The Hunger Games has made MTV's Top Ten Films of 2012 in the #10 spot.
Toby Jones, The Girl: “Alfred Hitchcock is a hero of mine and it was a daunting prospect to play him in our film. I’m honoured, flattered and proud that The Girl has been recognised by the HFPA. Whooppeee!”Jennifer Lawrence, Silver Linings Playbook: “Wow. I’m so lucky, because the Hollywood Foreign Press have been so supportive of the work I’ve done thus far, now honoring with me with a second Golden Globe nomination. Silver Linings Playbook is such a beautiful film, and David O. Russell wrote and directed an incredible screenplay featuring characters that skew off center, have extreme ups and downs, and are so nuanced. I am grateful to be part of it, and for the opportunity to do this role. And now, to be in a category of other talents—Meryl Streep, Judi Dench, Maggie Smith and Emily Blunt—who have also portrayed independently minded and driven female characters….that’s very cool. “Taylor Swift, “Safe and Sound,” The Hunger Games: “What an amazing and unexpected present! I’m blown away by my first-ever Golden Globe nomination, and so honored to be nominated with T Bone Burnett and The Civil Wars. Writing music for The Hunger Games was a labor of love—I was a fan of the stories and the characters, and we all wanted the music to have an authenticity that matched the tone of the movie and the emotions expressed in the book. This is a huge honor, and I’m really excited and so flattered. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association!”

Jennifer Lawrence spoke with MTV about her Golden Globe nomination.
Jennifer Lawrence spoke with E! Online about her SAG Awards nomination.
“I had no idea [the Golden Globes nominations were Thursday],” Lawrence told MTV News during an exclusive interview from the set of”The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,” the next chapter in the saga of reluctant rebel leader Katniss Everdeen. “My agent called me at 5:30 and I thought the set of my movie had burned down, or Josh [Hutcherson] had died or something. I didn’t realize! I was so tired!”
Now that she’s awake, Lawrence is fully aware of her Best Actress nomination for ”Silver Linings Playbook,” director David O. Russell’s romantic-comedy about Pat, a man with bipolar disorder (played by Bradley Cooper) who meets Tiffany (Lawrence), a recent widow who becomes an important part of Pat’s life. The film received three nominations in addition to Lawrence’s nod.
“It’s amazing. It was such an incredible part,” Lawrence said of receiving the nomination. “All the blood, sweat and tears that everybody put in this movie, and how much it meant to everyone, we can all share it together. David and Bradley got the recognition they deserve. It’s wonderful to be able to share it with everyone.”
But Lawrence also said that she’s not one to spend too much time dwelling on awards and nominations: “My trick — and I don’t know if it’s a trick or just a part of my personality that I can’t help — but I don’t think about it too much.”
It shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, then, that Lawrence isn’t spending the day celebrating her “Silver Linings” nomination. Instead, she’s hard at work on “Catching Fire.” Lawrence has eight days left of shooting on the “Hunger Games” sequel, and today’s workload involves getting into kill-or-be-killed Katniss mode.
“I’m covered in dirt, I’m drinking coffee, and then I’m going to go get into a swamp later. I’m basically just doing what all the other nominees are doing today,” she joked. “We’re all getting in a swamp together!”
Jennifer Lawrence spoke with E! Online about her SAG Awards nomination.
Jennifer Lawrence, Silver Linings Playbook: “It’s so rewarding to have fellow actors recognize my work with this nomination, and to be included in the company of the talented women nominated this year. Finding a great female character to portray is a very fulfilling experience, and I had that with Silver Linings Playbook, and in working David O.

Jennifer Lawrence spoke with The Guardian about The Hunger Games and her movie The Silver Linings Playbook.
The line’s crackling. Where are you?
I’m filming in Hawaii. But right now I’m eating doughnuts. I’ve just been inundated with doughnuts; it’s a perk of the job.
Moving on to other matters, Silver Linings Playbook has been named one of the Guardian’s best films of the year.
Well, thank you, that’s awesome. I’m a little taken aback. I should have prepared a speech. It’s a project I’m proud of. The cast and the crew gave it their all, working late nights, 15-hour days, trying to get it right. It was made with passion, that’s for sure.
What with your performances in Winter’s Bone, The Hunger Games and Serena, you’re becoming the poster-girl for nickel-and-dime America.
I know, but I’m just looking for interesting stories and strong characters. Maybe that’s where the good material is. Maybe that’s why I end up playing white-trash girls with too much responsibility.
When you took the role of Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games, did a part of you worry that the film might be so big it would get in the way of a creatively rewarding career?Yes, of course. I worried that it would be overwhelming and that no one would be able to see me as any other character. But I really cared about the movie. I’m as proud of The Hunger Games as I am any of the other films I’ve done.

Jack Giroux of moviepilot.com sat down to talk with Francis Lawrence about his career.
JG: Do you ever feel like saying, “It’s a movie,”?FL: Yeah, all the time. By the way, it is an adaptation, so things have to change sometimes.
JG: Even though Water for Elephants is different for you, it has a theme that’s been a part of all your films; isolation. What draws you to that theme?
FL: I think the idea of movies which are centered around single people are interesting to me, and being specific with that point-of-view is what makes for the eyes of the audience, carrying them through whatever the world and narrative is.

Source: hggirlonfire.comMoment I knew I wanted to work in the business: When I started film theory at Brown, and all I wanted to do was watch movies. I felt as excited as I ever did when I sat down in a movie theater.
Who gave me my first big break: Producer Lauren Shuler Donner. She agreed to meet me when I graduated from Brown and hired me to do free-lance research. Her office also let me know what jobs were becoming available at other companies, and I got a job with Joel Silver in 1987.
Toughest decision I had to make this year: Figuring out how to reload Hunger Games when Gary Ross left as director and make sure we chose the right person. It has turned out to be the right call to bring on Francis Lawrence.
When I leave work each day, I can’t wait to: Go home and see my kids, who are 14, 12 and 6.
My indulgence: I’m a binge television-watcher. I’ll watch an entire series on my iPad.
Can’t get through my workday without: Playing word games.
Most surprising song on my iPod: The soundtrack to Pitch Perfect.
Proudest moment this year The release of The Hunger Games.
Totally starstruck around Julie Andrews.
What I’d tell my 22-year-old self about working in Hollywood: “Don’t lose your confidence when things don’t go your way.”
Worst advice I’ve ever gotten: Someone told me once, “You can’t be a great mom and a kick-ass studio executive at the same time.” Not true.
Top three shows on my DVR: Game of Thrones, Homeland and Sons of Anarchy. I’m also intoNashville.

In our chapter analysis we contemplate if Gale is the bad boy and Peeta is the golden boy. What defines a bad boy? What flaws does Peeta have? Is it more captivating to read a book with a character you can relate to or a character who is drastically different than you? If Katniss saw a fortune teller who informed her of Prim's fate would Katniss have still volunteered as a tribute?
