He finished off the letter by adding: "Here are some other thrilling things that have happened here on Earth since The Hunger Games went live on blinkbox:
• Obama was re-elected!
• We all survived the Apocalypse!
• Prince William and Kate Middleton announced they are having a baby!

• The Pope resigned!
"What a busy 6 months…
