I'm looking forward to the movies. Although, I know I'll be disappointed. Just based on the quick opening ceremonies clip in the preview, it doesn't look like Katniss will be wearing Cinna's awesome creations as described in the book.
On the one end I'm like "yeah that sucks" and then on the other I'm like "well... is it even possible to do it?" So, I think that maybe the imagery and metaphor will be similar but she won't actually be *on fire*.

I'm looking forward to the movies. From what I've seen, they've done a pretty great job at sticking as close as possible to the imagery in the book.
