UNIVERSAL CITY, California — Coming off their big night at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards, the cast of "The Hunger Games," which took home four buckets of Golden Popcorn, is already planning the next installment of the series, "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire."

MTV News' Josh Horowitz caught up with stars Josh Hutcherson and Elizabeth Banks during the awards ceremony to find out where preparations for "Catching Fire" currently stand.

Last week came word that the crew may leave behind its North Carolina location from the first film for a shoot further south in Atlanta. Hutcherson told MTV News that he hasn't heard a definitive word on the location, but he is looking forward to the shoot.

"I haven't heard anything confirmed yet, but Atlanta is a big possibility. I know they're looking at Hawaii, too, for some of the tropic stuff when we're in the Games itself," he said. "I'm excited. It's going to be somewhere nice. I'm looking forward to it."

A possible change in filming location would be a minor shift compared to the director swap that captured headlines months ago. Hutcherson said that he recently saw the new director, Francis Lawrence, and is excited about his vision for the next adaptation.

"I just had lunch with him a couple days ago, and he's fantastic. He's so smart and really has his finger on the pulse of the story, and I love the way he's going to structure the script," Hutcherson said. "The first thing he said to me was, 'I want to make the movie out of the book. I want the book to be the best movie possible.' That was immediately what he led with, which meant a lot to me because the books mean a lot to me."

Sunday night's winner for Best On-Screen Transformation, Elizabeth Banks, on the other hand, has not spoken with Lawrence, though she understands why. "They're so early in the process. That seems silly to say because we're going to make the movie in a few months," she said. "But I think he's just started, and we have just gotten scripts, and it's just sort of all happening."

As for whether she can share any details from the script she just read, Banks kept her secrets to herself. "I can't tell you anything," she said. "I read a book called 'Catching Fire' that I'm pretty sure the movie will be based on."

Jaw-dropping, heart-pounding, gut-busting moments galore. See what went down at the 21st annual MTV Movie Awards!

The Reaper

NOTE: Hey guys, good to be back and posting. Good news, I recently entered a writing contest within my local newspaper, I came second while the person who came first was an actual author apparently. I wont $50 and went and spent it on food for the night xD.

Note #2: This was my submission to said contest, I thought it did quite well for how small it was.

THE REAPER
You let me know
How much I?ve done.
So step aside
And let me run.

There is no hope.
You?re who we fear.
There?s no life now,
The end is near.

I?ve come too far
I shall not stop.
The ground shall cease,
And there?s the drop.

He stands there still,
His scythe quite high,
And there?s darkness,
And then I die.
- #Chance

Preparing Your Home and Family During National Hurricane ...

Hurricane season is upon us, beginning in June and running through November for the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico. This week marks National Hurricane Awareness Week, a time for all homeowners and communities to ensure that they are properly prepared for hurricane season.

Hurricanes and high winds from associated storms can affect thousands if not millions of homeowners. One of the most common effects of such emergencies experienced by homeowners is the loss of power. In fact, more than 6.2 million homes in 23 states were left in the dark last year after the power went out during Hurricanes Irene and Lee. In New York, 838,411 households experienced outages lasting an average of 2.7 days.

While you cannot completely reduce your risk of being affected by a hurricane-related power outage, backup power can keep your home and family safe while utility power is down. Here are a few of the many ways that portable and automatic backup generators benefit homeowners during a power outage:

1. The most important home appliance that a standby generator will power during a hurricane is your basement sump pump, decreasing the risk of water damage to your home and possessions.
2. In the case of severe storms and destruction, portable generators power emergency lights to ensure safety during evacuation.
3. Community evacuation shelters rely on automatic backup power to manage operations and provide relief to hurricane victims.
4. If storms cause power outages during times of extreme heat or cold, an automatic backup power source will turn on to keep the furnace or air conditioning units running.
5. Backup power can also save families hundreds of dollars in food costs, eliminating the risk of spoiled refrigerated and frozen foods while utility power is down.
6. In our networked world, Internet, TV and radio provide important severe weather updates to keep communities safe and informed. If the power goes out in the wake of a hurricane, a backup power source will keep these technologies running.
7. Automatic backup power helps maintain normalcy in the aftermath of a hurricane-related power outage, keeping the doors open to vital businesses, such as grocery stores and pharmacies.
8. Portable and automatic backup generators provide power to traffic signals to ensure all drivers remain safe during times of evacuation as well as necessary commutes while power is down.
9. An automatic backup generator can save lives for those on power-dependent health equipment, such as kidney dialysis machines or respirators, keeping this essential equipment running during a power outage.
10. In areas prone to flooding, emergency portable generators power pumps that drain water from ditches, floodplains and dikes, preventing further damage to the affected area.
