The adaptation had some weaknesses, and I agree with all the points you've raised. It must have been a great challenge to take a first-person perspective novel and transcribe it to the screen. I did enjoy being transported, though, into the physical space that was District 12

lol, LJ thought you were spam (Since when does LJ HAVE a spam filter, anyway?)
Thanks for the link lol! Was hilarious!
I have yet to read the other two books. I think I will do that and then skip the movies. Or at least read the critical reviews first of them to see what people complain about.
As long as no blood was involved in the fighting, I don't see why it needed to be shaky-cam.
My mom refers to the movie as the one 'where kids kill each other'. I try to correct her, but technically it's true, even though a lot of the kids were assholes ;)
well, I had to un-spam you in order for the comment to show up. I think whatever spam filter LJ uses was triggered because of the long comment and the link at the end? I think the link was the main reason lol
