"Tributes... We welcome you..." to DVD

Last Friday night, I went to a Walmart to await the release of the Hunger Games DVD.  It was fun, low-key.  Everything was done while in line at Electronics.  And, I took pictures....

While we were waiting, they showed behind-the-scenes stuff from the DVD, and a couple of music videos, including Taylor Swift's "Safe and Sound."  The volume wasn't that loud, though.

We got cupcakes.  From what I'm hearing around the web, some were orange.  For future reference, the cupcakes were great and all, but pleeease, don't use black frosting again.  Just... don't.



I got my fan-girl on.  Grabbed the logo shirt as soon as they were being sold, because they can sell out quickly.  Wore the mockingjay pin, and the bracelet I made a few months ago.

Took pictures of the cool displays... and tweeted a few times.





Funny tweet of the night, from me: (overheard, some guy walking by) "What is this, Iphone 5?" 

By the time they gave out the DVDs, I'd say there were about fifty people in line.



(I felt kinda weird about taking a picture of the line, okay?)

Finallllly....



I got home and watched about half of it.  I was sleepy.  Finished it the next night.  I'm still not finished with the special features.  One thing that might be interesting to older viewers is the "Letters from the Rose Garden," which features a letter written by Donald Sutherland, who plays President Snow.  He wrote it to the director, and it shows just how great an actor Sutherland is.  

I still want the Target DVD.  

P.S.: I was right about the Breaking Dawn books that are coming out in a couple of months. :-)

I remember the moment I became a Taylor Swift fan. I had heard a few songs of hers on the radio. However, it was in the fall of 2010 I found...
