    I have to come and defend Peeta!! The whole point of the trilogy and of the love triangle is that Gale represents violence and endless war, and Peeta represents hope and peace. Katniss and Gale aren't right for each other after The Games - Katniss has been thoroughly traumatized by her experiences, Gale has gotten too caught up in revenge and war to recognize its' cost. Peeta never intentionally killed anyone in cold blood; Gale continually ordered the deaths of dozens if not hundreds of soldiers and civilians. Katniss learns the horrors of war and Gale never really does, to the point that he's totally okay with murdering his own medics to strike a blow against his enemy.
    But Peeta is right there with Katniss, goes through all of the things she goes through (and worse) and still manages to find his way to peace and to wanting a new future for himself and for Katniss. She now lives in a world where she can want to have children, where she can raise them knowing they won't be sent off to the Games. Gale didn't want that future. Gale was willing to continue to let the Games happen, as long as it wasn't happening to HIS people. Meanwhile Peeta was brainwashed into believing Katniss was going to kill him, and he managed to push through that in order to trust her again. Peeta and Gale just had very different reactions to the reality of war, and by the time we reach the ending, Gale and Katniss have completely contradictory values and morals, and methods of maintaining those things.
    TL;DR Katniss choosing Peeta means she chooses peace, Katniss choosing Gale means she chooses war. The whole theme of the series hinges on her NOT turning into what Gale becomes by the end.

    Fan of the books here! Katniss's three finger salute isn't an underground, rebellion symbol. At least, not at first. It originated in district 12 and is meant as a sign of solidarity and respect that's usually reserved for funerals. Her demonstrating that empathy and loss for Rue in the arena by performing her own "funeral" is what elicits that reaction, because it humanizes the senseless violence that the citizens of Panem are forced to watch.

    One little thing to mention, is Zach was talking about how he wanted Katniss to have a moment where she doesn’t end up killing the last person in the games. That’s actually exactly what she did with Peeta. It doesn’t come across in the movies as well, but she is not in love with Peeta and she is only acting because she wants to survive. Peeta is not acting. The moment with the berries for Peeta was him willing to pull a Romeo & Juliet for Katniss, but Katniss’ thoughts in that moment were that she knew there was no way the Capitol would allow no one to win the games. Therefore, she rebelled against the Capitol, refusing to kill the person that stood between her and survival.

    Okay I have to fight this because Gayle (Gail idk I don’t remember?) is shown to be too much like Katniss in the book and in the movie, and Peeta compliments her. He’s not as stubborn, he cares for her, he does things for her, and even though he plays for the cameras he actually loved her the ENTIRE TIME!! Gayle is too stubborn and doesn’t listen to Katniss. He wants what he wants and doesn’t bend in any direction, hence what happened with Prim

  • @themermaidmak
    @themermaidmak Рік тому +37

    Guys! No!
    Everything Peeta did was 100% NOT for clout.
    He cared for Katniss alot & when he very quickly realised him would not survive the games, he sought to do anything/everything he could to make sure she won.
    Plus don't forget he was there when Prim's name got called & Katniss volunteered, so hearing that she was willing to sacrifice herself for her sister would've been pretty heavy in Peeta's mind.
    Especially knowing his own family really didn't give two shits about him.
    He genuinely didn't expect to live & you very much see that in the sequels.

    • @themermaidmak
      @themermaidmak Рік тому +5

      And I'm sorry, but the Gale ship was ALWAYS gonna flop.
      He had this expectation that they would end up to together whether or not Katniss was into it.
      She had so many other things to worry about, like not DYING!
      And it just becomes more obvious in the sequels that he doesn't really care about her feelings/opinions.
      He just wants her to get over her PTSD. & pretend that Peeta doesn't exist.
      PLUS i still can't forgive him for his involvement in Prim's death.

      THANK YOU. I used to be super team Gale, but after reflecting I really feel like she doesn’t belong with either. Like others say, Gale represents war rather than peace. I also always felt that her relationship with Peeta was performative and based out of survival rather than true romantic feelings. And even in the end of the series, I felt that her perspective made it seem like she just settled for the best option.
      Edit to add that I agree maybe not asexual, but I least don’t see her with either characters romantically.

      I see a lot of people say this, but I think the fact that she didn't want to end up with anyone in the begging, was because the capital didn't allow her to have those dreams. She didn't want to have a family because she didn't want her kids to grow up in that environment. She also never wanted to be a war symbol, she just wanted to live her life. So once their reality changes, it makes sense that she would open herself up to other possibilities. The fact that she ends up having a family is actually an act of defiance against the capital and the ultimate rebel act she could do which is to be happy with whoever she wanted, and not based on choices made out of fear.

    I was ecstatic for this episode and it was going great until the unironically group proclamation of being team Gale. For what I gather the main reason was bc he is "tall, brooding and brunette" aka "handsomer"? (And I put it in quotes bc personally I've never found Liam handsome) And yeah, he might have been good for his own family but that didn't translate to been good for Katniss or been good at all; other comments-like kamcalste's -have explained accurately the why of it. I was even more bummed about the statement because of the previous knowledge that most of them have read the books-and there Gale is even a worst fit for Katniss than that in the movies. It's even crystal clear that she doesn't think of him in a romantic way! And to be fair, it takes her a while to think in that way about Peeta, bc romance isn't important for Katniss in the books, but surviving is.
    As for Josh, he was a perfect Peeta. I have to admit that the first time I saw him in the role it was kind weird bc I had never seen him with blonde hair before, but after overcoming that insignificant initial shock, he embodied the kind-selfless-funny-clever-quietly strong Peeta that I had met through the books even with the short screen time the movies gave him. Even the author, Suzanne, agrees! She was at his casting audition! And if one of the nitpics of him not being the right fit for the role is that his physical appearance differs from what it's described in the books (that, let's be honest, it really is just him not having blue eyes bc even in the books he is of medium height), then why aren't they giving the same energy for other characters? Like are we forgetting that Katniss is supposed to be shorter, not fair skinned, have straight hair, be VERY thin and hairy? Jennifer had only the dark hair for the movie, and they loved her!
    Anyway, as an aside note, I have to admit that after remembering that all of them are millennials, them being on team Gale wasn't as shocking. So thanks, Rainie, the token gen z, for defending Peeta and not being a Gale apologist 💖

      @@amnotann ah okay, I gotcha. I think too that it's very much tied to appearances like was mentioned in a reply too. Like the couple of 'Team Gale' people I've met tend to be the ones who only saw the movies and think that Liam Hemsworth is more attractive than Josh Hutcherson and can't get over the fact that Josh is shorter than Jennifer Lawrence.(like I personally don't ship Katniss and Peeta romantically but I've seen people try to argue that they couldn't ship them just because of the fact that Josh was shorter) Not saying that people that genuinely like Gale can't and don't exist, but the fact that Liam is a more traditionally good looking guy def plays a role most of the time. Plays into the whole 'well this person is hot so we can forgive them/look past their flaws' trope too.

  • @clover2739
    @clover2739 Рік тому +10

    Peeta is always seen as weak for some reason when he isn’t, I think it’s nice that he has more traditional feminine traits while Katniss has more masculine ones. I think peeta balances Katniss out and Katniss was genuinely upset when peeta was picked because he saved her life when they were younger and risked himself getting beat up by his abusive mum to do so. People think peeta isn’t useful in the games when he is, in fact in the books Katniss is constantly annoyed that she always owes peeta and feels guilty because peeta keeps doing things which help her without her realising while she keeps making things worse for him. I don’t think it’s Josh’s fault but they didn’t show how charismatic and witty Peeta is supposed to be, he knows how to play and manipulate the crowed. Which is why at first Katniss didn’t trust him because of how good he was at it and she thought he was manipulating her with his kindness but then realised he was saving her the whole time. Katniss always thought that peeta was too good for her through most of the franchise which is why she wants to protect him so much.
    I think Gale was good for Katniss at the beginning, they helped each other through the worst moments but Gale is very similar to Katniss but he also goes overboard. Katniss often disagrees with him because he takes things too far and is very bitter. He has negative traits like feeling like he owns Katniss in ways and getting jealous and weird with Katniss because of her act with peeta which is just… weird considering that’s not the thing he should be worried about and should be glad she survived. He doesn’t understand what Katniss is going through and while she’s traumatised he’s just pushing her for a relationship and not really listening. I think his reasons for revenge are justified but the way he’s fine with killing innocent people because he doesn’t understand that people are just clueless and have no choice is what pushes him over the edge, which is Katniss’ eyes makes him not much better than those killing innocent lives on the other side.
    I do think it’s sad how they never really become friends or see each other again though, because I do think they used to have a really good friendship before everything.

    i cant take yall seriously now that you said ur anti peeta. its about the SYMBOLISM. its about how gale represents war and peeta represents peace. its about how gale was just going to keep going and bringing katniss into the ugliness and violence of everything she was trying to get away from. katniss choosing peeta was the message that the author was trying to send for the end of the series. how you have to choose peace in order to build a new world. gale wasnt what she needed, it was the stability of peeta where she could finally heal and move on in a post hunger games world. also gale is a jealous baby killer who couldnt stand the fact that katniss saw him as a brother instead so we dont stan him.

    I'm sorry, but Gale might have been good for Katniss at the beginning, but he revealed himself to be too bloodthirsty, which Katniss never liked.

    I read hunger games in middle school and while i think they mostly did a good job of adapting it, they left a LOT out that helps with the overall story.(talking about the whole series) I think they left them out to keep a pg13 rating, i’d see an R one tho

    I’ve been binging episodes. Kelsey says so many wrong things with so much confidence. It’s driving me crazy.
    Peeta was faking love for clout. Nope. The three fingers mean the underground. Nope. it does become a symbol for the resistance but uuggghhhh. The dad - definitely dead. Stale bread - nope. Purposely burned and he got in trouble for it. Some of these are picky and she was possibly joking about the dad…but come on. And this is not the only episode. It makes me sad and today I’m thoroughly annoyed.

IT SETS UP THE NEXT BOOK/MOVIE it's so important

    Re-read the books as adults and come back and tell me you still think Katniss and Gale were better together. Especially Mockingjay, Gale appeals to the part of Katniss that wanted chaos and war. Peeta appeals to her peace and humanity. Post war Gale isn't right for her. She would of lived her life restlessly without Peeta. He's the calm that keeps her grounded and that's what she needs. Not Gale and chaos.

    I know that this is a podcast about movies, but I'm so happy they're doing The Hunger Games because the books are one of my all-time favorites (a huge understatement). It has left a big impression on me especially since it's the first dystopian book I've ever read. The writing, the world, and the concept is just sooooo so so so good. I love everything about it. And the movies are awesome, too! They did not disappoint. 😊😆

    As an archery instructor and someone who does Olympic style recurve shooting, the same katniss does, you can actually pull the string to your lips! Doesn't hurt or hit your nose or anything. Centering the string that way placing the arrow I the center of your line of sight, makes it easier to aim for this style of shooting

    To answer Kelsey’s question about fire being difficult to CGI: yes. Lord of the Rings (Weta Digital) built a whole new engine to run for the fire used on the Balrog cause everything available at the time wasn’t good enough.

    The whole Peeta vs Gale thing is so wild. Katniss isn't interested in *either* of them! Let her live her unsocial life!!! The fact that she ends up married with *babies* at the end, when she really didn't want them is the one thing I didn't like about the books. (People just think Liam is hot!)
    Amber Midthunder would be amazing as Katniss! (I never read book!Katniss or district 12 in general as white. Appalachian with a Native population, yes)
