The Bernard Charles Show

I just saw a commercial that the movie Avatar is making a come back to a theater near you and it will be in 3-D once more on August 27th. Katey Rich from CinemaBlend.com projects that this riveting move by Cameron is another “cash grab” effort.

This is another cash grab, of course, but you can choose whether or not you want to be excited about it. I for one really liked Avatar, and even though I saw it three times in its first theatrical release, I wouldn’t mind jumping back into that immersive movie experience.

I must say this is extraordinary! I never and my mom can agree with her experience that a movie once out of theaters would be going back to the box office. WOW! I am excited because when I saw Avatar for the first time, my imagination was encapsulated by the soul and spirit of Cameron’s expansive fantasy world of Pandora. What an adventure this is going to be again.

According to Rich, the movie is going to have 8 more minutes added to it. And my hunch is that something bigger is coming our way and there just might be a sequel.

Even though this could potentially be another “cash grabbing” effort by Cameron, I say inspiration and motivation simply flooded back into Cameron’s life and he needs to express his true vision of what this movie means to him.

I respect that this is happening. Who knew a movie could go through the box office and then be such a hit then add footage and take it to the people once more. I say it is a smart move and this talk show host wants to experience the movie all over again. It deserves another watch.

And to leave you with some words of wisdom from Katey Rich–

It’s your call as to what you choose to do on August 27, but I think you know where you’ll be able to find me.

And that will be the truth for me as well. I will catch all of my wonderful Avatar fans at the box office once more! Hey who wants to paint each other blue and get some yellow eyes? We can share some skittles too!

If you have an opportunity to go farther and get better than your current situation, YOU GO FOR IT. More Details to come. I am excited.

A fire just rekindled itself and now it is burning so brightly as I wait for the third book of The Hunger Games trilogy, Mockingjay to come out August 24th.

I am absolutely thrilled about these books that Suzanne Collins so delicately weaved together! Her writing takes you on a journey of one girl and one boy each from 12 districts into mayhem and fright of The Hunger Games where survival, intellect, and maybe some love keeps your heart, mind, and soul wanting to read more and more. I recently read the two books this past spring and really could not put them down. I avoided eating and doing homework until I got into another chapter of complete rebellion and conformity.

The basis of the trilogy is so moving that the first book The Hunger Games is being filmed into a movie by Lionsgate! Now, as a blooming TV artist, I absolutely hands down adore the thought and emotion of auditioning for this movie. Just auditioning would be a honor, because the books make me feel the same way as did reading the Harry Potter books and I have no problem “dying” on set because I can say I died for my district. Oh the thrill I am getting just writing this post.

Gosh, 20,000 or so people on Facebook.com likes The Hunger Games! Amazing! Collins truly created a masterpiece by writing these books and I raise my glass to all the characters that she has brought to life.

Katniss-The Girl who dazzled ignorant capital residents by her flaming beauty
Peeta- The boy who simply shared some bread
Gale- The strong one
Rue- One of my favorite characters. The youngest, but the loudest!
Cinna- Creativity runs through him like fire blazes through brush
Effie- On point and on time.
Haymitch- Don’t let his grouchiness fool you.
Primrose- Katniss’ little sister, healing hands just like their mom

These characters all have that special role in the heroine’s life and Collins depicted human interaction so vividly, I was bound to cry, laugh, and feel pain for every step that Katniss took in this legendary war between rebellion and conformity.

Katniss Everdeen ignites a flame that will send sparks flying in all directions as she defies the odds against her.

Will this tale of pure defiance lead her astray and her family in danger? Or will it change the course of capital history as we know it?
