Playing an intense, raging bigot in “Rampart” was “the best part I’ve ever been offered and definitely a challenge. It made me buckle down and get to work,” said Woody Harrelson.That work included “all the other things you try to do to saturate your brain in the cop culture: reading books, watching documentaries, looking at movies, going to the shooting range.

“But none of that meant anything compared to going on ride-alongs with cops.”

Harrelson calls Dave Brown, his character, “not just a bad guy. He loves his family and that’s what’s interesting about him. It’s a complex character with a problematic dark side but he also loves his kids.”

Where did Harrelson, a self-described “hippie from Hawaii,” channel this latest tour de force?

“I’m definitely, I don’t know,” he answered softly, “an A personality in a B façade.

“I think I’m naturally my best self when I’m really lazy and not doing anything. When I’m working hard, which is what’s required of you these days, I’m not sure it’s my cup of tea. I really don’t like working.”

But he does it often. Next month he’s in the anticipated blockbuster “The Hunger Games.”

“My family and I read all three books. It’s just so cool,” he said of playing “Games” character Haymitch Abernathy.

Initially he rejected the role. “Gary Ross wanted me to play this part and it’s definitely a supporting character, but I didn’t feel I had enough to do so I did turn it down.”

Ross came back and pleaded, telling Harrelson, “I don’t have a second choice.”

“So I said, OK. Now I can’t imagine having missed it.”

I'm about 3/4 of the way through the first book. I'm enjoying it, and will probably read the other two. Also... Jennifer Lawrence is looking good, never thought much of her (looks wise) in Winters Bone. She's a good actress though and I bet will do a good job.

The Hunger Games stars Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta Mellark, Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket, Liam Hemsworth as Gale Hawthorne, Woody Harrelson as Haymitch Abernathy, Donald Sutherland as President Snow, Stanley Tucci as Caesar Flickerman, Lenny Kravitz as Cinna, and is directed and written by Gary Ross.

Synopsis: Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains.

Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

Based on the best-selling novel by Suzanne Collins.

The movie will be released to theaters on March 23, 2012.

Got to see a pre-screen of this movie tonight. Pretty good flick, stayed true to the book with a handful of adjustments. My daughter loved it. She's halfway through the third book, while I've only read the first one.

Eager audience, but there were instances of cheering/clapping during the movie which is unusual.

Very awkward. First movie I ever witnessed this in was Independence Day

I shit you not, 2/3 of the crowd gave the movie a standing ovation. It's as if they expected to walk outside and see downed aliens/ships all over the ground. WE WON! WE DEFEATED THE ALIENS!

I think the first book is fine for a 12 year old, and the movie should be as well. There is violence and death, but there's no sex, and the violence is not overly gory in the first book and shouldn't be in the movie (though it is certainly sad).

However, the books get more violent as they go culminating in some fairly disturbing scenes in the third book as mentioned above. So for now, if you are worried about it, I'd just let her read the first and see the movie, and make her wait to continue on with the story. Even if you let her read them all, I'm sure she won't be overly scarred. As the poster above pointed out, most of us watched worse at that age (i.e. for me it was horror flicks like Friday the 13th, Halloween, etc.).

None of them scarred me...well except the original Poltergeist, damn that one got to me in a bad way! Still hate clowns and tree branches outside my windows! I guess the supernatural freaked me out more than just straight violence.
