       I was thinking more like the remnants of our advanced future
       being ubiquitous even in the dust bowl of District 12 like a
       hundred-year-old crumbling wall, coated in graffiti that still
       plays streaming videos from the Capitol (albeit VERY faded, like
       a projection in daylight).  I mean, the way their world is
       living in doesn't seem very congruent to me, it's not enough
       that the Capitol has more advanced tech, their relationship with
       it should be very different: the Subjects would use everything
       they can to survive, they'd repair, rebuild, customize, anything
       they can get their hands on they'd modify, their clothes would
       be hand-me-downs or handmade (I figure the Capitol would give
       every Subject a basic outfit like you'd see in the soviet union
       or the army but you'd be ostracized in your society if you
       actually WORE it).
       The design seemed way too "1984" for me.  I feel like it should
       have been more Firefly.
       Oh, and side issue: if they have a Hunger Games EVERY year for
       75 years, why aren't there PERMANENT screens set up everywhere?
