Is this referencing something specific? I can’t think of any gray soviet propaganda showing young people just standing around on a nice bright day.

  I think it’s referencing the common pose often struck on propaganda posters, that of two or more people standing side by side staring off into the distance while we look at them from a low angle

How nice of the Capitol to go sending those nice mannequins around to the districts. (Though I could buy the Capitol’s Photoshop specialists going crazy on the skin-smoothing tool too.)

It’s a miracle! 5’6 Josh Hutcherson is somehow the same height as 5’7 (plus 3-4 heels) Jennifer Lawrence in this poster.

  SO WHAT?!? I hate people ragging on him for his height! ain’t nothin’ wrong with a shorter guy! My guy is 5’6” too and I love it that I’m an inch taller than him! it’s freaking adorable! People need to get off thinking tall guys are the shit. Most of them have higher levels of testosterone and are jerks anyway.
