i wouldn't suprised if katniss saw jeffree star outside her window in the capitol
Great, now I wish Jeffree Star had played Effie Trinket. Can you imagine?
@@LordofFullmetal that would be iconic
Hi! How are ya?

Lol Jeffree came to my mind the instant I saw the pictures of Capitol people. He would look so ordinary among them :D

@@erinmayo5170 just add superman music
Isn't it kind of ironic that this all started cuz Katniss didn't want Prim to die in the Hunger games but then she ended up dying in the rebellion anyways?
DarkChocoSpy Well it isn’t irony by defenition, but it’s pretty fuckin funny.
That was like the whole point of prim dying. In the book katniss said she did it all for nothing
Kaharma
oof-ity oof
MountainRain THEN DONT WATCH A VIDEO EXPLAINING EVERYTHING
I liked the fact that Coin wanted (as a totally corrupted president) to have new Hunger Games with the Capitol’s children, because it show that the history is often repeating itself and that, the rebels of the past are the ones deciding in the futur and when they’ve won, they can be as cruel as the previous leaders (even on innocent people)
Yes. Military revolutionists often make for unusually cruel leaders.
capitol citizens are not innocent people tho
If I was in charge I probably would have done the same thing. Would’ve held a Hunger Games for the Capital.
But made it clear it was a one-off. As just to show the Capital what it was like to endure that for decades… And just to show them ONCE what it was like.
So have 1 Hunger Games specifically for only Capital citizens. Then abolish it.
@@dylanfry7978 I agree and can see why they wanted to do it. However, it would’ve made it more difficult for a “peaceful” panem. It would’ve make the citizens of the capitol angry (even though in some ways, I could say it’s deserved). But you know like they say, you can’t fight fire with fire 🤷🏾♀️. Having another games wouldn’t have been the all end, and probably would’ve opened up another trail of problems.
@@casinohabibi the citizens themselves are innocent. it's the people in power who were corrupt.
Let us not ever forget: when we are discussing our favorite parts of this movie, Suzanne Collins' overarching message was "This is what happens when your government gets too powerful."
God damn, never noticed that
@@kindnesstemmie6625 xD
Small local governments are better (states), with an overall government, who still has power, but less influence over each state than the government if that state.
I’ve recently been obsessed with the hunger games and stuff like the origin of it. By this I mean like I want to know the stories of 1-74 hunger games and about the victors. Do the books talk about the past hunger games and the origins of the winners or are the novels only about Katniss. Pleas help me out I just want to know what ALL the hunger games books are about and what they are based on. Thanks
@@nicholaspesa696 Me too I'm also obsessing about the history of the Hunger games !
"luxury hair products" *shows suave*
Probably better than what they have in the districts

Katniss made the decision to kill Coin when she realized that she was the one who dropped the bombs. One of her biggest turnoffs from Gale toward the end of Mockingjay was his ability to kill without empathy. Gale was also the one who designed the bombing trap at the Capital gates with Beetee, the same ones who killed Prim.
But she killed without empathy tho, kinda a double standard don't u think. U can say she was forced too, which she kinda was but didn't mean she needed to be as brutal as she was. Peeta was the rational one, he'd rather hide than take the lives of others basically playing pacifist.
@@claudespeed277Of course it is a double standard,but anyone in her place wouldn't have been able to keep contact with the person whose actions cost their sister's life.
@@claudespeed277 I don't think she ever killed without empathy. In the Mockingjay book she constantly references how many people have died due to her actions and how awful it makes her feel. She also has constant nightmares involving those that have died either at her hands or because of something she has done. She very rarely kills unless it is a necessity. Anyone in her situation would have to kill and she always tries to make their death as fast and painless as possible. Even when she kills Coin she shoots her through the heart. Gale happily killed people even when it didn't need to be done. Like in District 2 when he wanted to trap the workers in the mountain with no regard for the fact he was killing innocent people. And when he made the plan to kill the Capitol's children at the very end; he even showed very little remorse over the fact that Prim was in amongst them.
Gadosk
She only intentionally killed one person in the games because marvel had just killed Rue, and then she mercy killed Cato because the dog were eating him alive, at least in the books
"They used district 13 as an example of what happens when you rebel," just hit me like a rock cause you realize nobody knew they were the only district to achieve such a level of freedom :o
Do your research they gave district 13 freedom because they obviously knew that without them the rebels would lose they always knew the district's were powerful if they stood together so the made the hunger games to divide the district's making them hate each other
they freed the district because the capital was afraid of them
@@michaeldillon8217 yea district 13 were in charge of nuclear weaponry. Now the capitol not being braindead idiots knew not to piss them off or they would have to deal with something worst so granted them freedom in exchange for them not pointing those weapons of mass destruction at the capitol.
Was it really freedom though...
@@sbritton1313 in a way yes and no. Yes in the sense that they don't have to answer to the capitol or be in the hunger games but no in the sense that they are still under someone thumb

A lot of you miss the subtle hints at Coin from the moment we meet her. She uses Katniss. Even Boggs tells her that Coin never wanted her, but Peeta, because he would be easier to control. Plutarch advocated for Katniss because he knows that she will spot the corruption on her own and he's counting on her to make the right decision.
Katniss ends up killing Coin because she had time to observe her tactics and realized she's just as evil as Snow.
You could argue she is even worse than Snow, because she's hiding behind a mask of righteousness, while Snow was always very straightforward about what he was doing and why.
Katniss figuring out that Coin had bombed a pen full of children and then hearing her suggestion about holding a symbolic hunger games just reinforced her decision and provided the means for her to get close enough to assassinate Coin and break the cycle.
A little too close to home right now in the US. The Hungers Games really is something that feels like a near future
@@jimmothy_DM I agree with you. Way too many parallels to ignore even if we wanted to.
coin wanting the new hunger games couldn't have been a factor in katniss's descision to kill her...
in the books, coin had asked the victors to vote on it and katniss had been in favor of the new hunger games because of prim's death.
@@Banned_Hacker96If I remember correctly, she was just pretending so she could kill Coin without raising suspicion

Have no fear district 13 is "not" here
One of the most interesting things about Hunger Games is that President Coin suggested to organise Hunger Games with children from the Capitol which was a major trigger for Katniss to kill her, which shows that ultimately Katniss is smart enough to understand that Capitol citizens are not responsible and that power wheel is
In the books Katniss was all for it.
@@jennaleclaire2654 No, no she wasn't. The movie definitely left out her inner thoughts on it which were heavily against it. In the books she had multiple reasons to hate coin one being Prim's death and was disgusted with how District 13 was little different from the Capital. Ultimately when the decision came to using the capital in the hunger games she vocally sided for it to appear that she blamed the capital for Prim's death and to be amenable to their side. Siding against them at that instant could of barred her from ever getting a chance to kill coin.
@Mir Mehdi No why they have to join the rebels they bring war to their city you should thank them for don't fuck the rebels lol
@Mir Mehdi they like the Capitol though, why would they want to bring it down.
@@jennaleclaire2654 , no. No, she wasn't. She was scheming with vengeance.
Everyone says Katniss was the start of the rebellion, but in reality, it was Rue. Fly high Rue
No it was Katniss relationship with Rue. After 74 years of Hunger Games Rue definitely wasn't the sole 12 year old to die in these games. It was Katniss and Rue's relationship filled with compassion, showing that at the end of the day the districts are not each other's real enemies. They are more or less all suffering under the brutality of their true enemy ... the Capitol.
@@quizzlybear Well, yes, but Rue was a very major part, along with her being the "underdog". Rue's death also played a major part. You are still right, though.
It was Cinna
Literally him
Icon
No, it was Madge. She started the entire thing. She probably didn't even realize it when she was doing it that she was marking Catnip as the future mockingjay.
There's a deleted scene, where Katniss receives bread from district 11 as a donation thingy, and i think that shows the beginning of the rebellion very well

I feel like the hunger games has a special connection to the real world we live in that no other series has and a message for humanity that is so much deeper than any other series.
I agree
Especially with the propaganda video… war, terrible war…
The Divergent Series as well as The Maze Runner are both very good too. Another very good one is the TV series The 100.
Most dystopian fictions purpose is to provide a message to society and show an exaggerated effect the problem will cause if not stopped, and as you say; send a message to humanity
The capital is literally the government…. Think about it.
Then there’s district 14: Florida. No one at the capitol was crazy enough to fuck with the Florida man.

There’s kind of an interpretation of Districts 1 that says that they’re not as rich as they’re perceived. Like yes they’re definitely one of the better-off districts but the story is told from the perspective of Katniss, whose definition of ‘rich’ is basically ‘can afford to eat’
And they’re more similar too District 4 than they are to District 2
it broke my heart when the girl from district 4 said
“one day, i’m gonna volunteer, just like you!”

That was a nightmare, it never happened.
In Latin panem means bread 🍞 and it comes from a saying by a Roman philosopher who said that civilisation will be happy with bread and a circus. The bread is of course food and the circus being entertainment, if you think about it the bare minimum satisfies them and to get more food, they enter into the games, which provides the entertainment, distracting them from rebeliion
Wow
Now that’s good analysis!!
Uro-san19 kimberlite thanks
That's deep
Panel we circensus
You got that from the books didnt you
Something to note is that when Catniss killed Coin she also knew that Snow was already dead, his body hadn't given out yet. He confided in Catniss that he was dying so killing Coin got rid of both of them.
*Katniss
When I read the books her shooting Coin was the most satisfying parts of that whole book.
*catnip
Cantmiss*
I had to read that part a few times cause I thought she shot snow for some reason
I think snow made district 12 the poorest with most of the people dark haired because that’s where Lucy came from and also why he was so hostile to katniss because she reminded him of Lucy.
The district was already poor though. At the beginning of the book when he gets assigned Lucy Gray, his first thought is "The lowest of the distracts for a Snow! How disgraceful!" It had always been an afterthought. And when 12 is described in the book, the state of things were basically the same as they were in the 74th Hunger Games, because they simply never recovered. And it's not that Corio refused to aid 12, because it's also stated that it's only the industries that are funded and supported, not the districts themselves.
Lucy definitely lived rent free in his head for the rest of his paranoid life 😂
Lucy Gray wasn’t born there though, she traveled and was apart of the Covy, thise dark haired people and her unlikely are apart of the same ethnic groups. And Snow can’t make a district poor if it’s been poor long before he became president.

XxRuby RosexX i live in where district 4 would be.
I loved how in Mockingjay they referred to democracy as this ancient concept that nobody ever heard of. Just goes to show that how after the world “ended”, dictatorship (is it?) took power and ruled Panem for years and years.
“And if our ancestors did it, then we can, too.” - Plutarch Heavensbee
I read the book, it stated something like "the continent was once called North America, but at some point, major consecutive natural disasters occurred, followed by a major flooding, ruining the most developed and rich coastal areas, which was followed by many wars for the remaining land and resources, and in the end, Panem emerged, consisting of The Capitol and 13 districts" dictatorship was basically victorious over whatever else emerged, so naturally people thought it was better.
Some time after, some districts rebelled, led by district 13. Both the Capitol and District 13 had nukes, so Capitol signed peace like: "we leave you alone, you don't touch us and we pretend you don't exist anymore"
Coin: *dies*
Snow: hahahaha

8:30 in the books they didn't know Katniss was there at first. They turned the footage around afterwards to show what happens if you associated with the Mockingjay, but originally they were just bombing the hospitals on purpose.
To be fair… the movies and book both cast doubt on whose responsible for the D8 bombing. In both versions, Coin sends advanced warning of the bombers to get Katniss and her team out, even before District 8’s alarm system picks up the bombing raid.
District 9 "I'll produce grain"
District 11 "that's part of my job take something else"

@@gabynicole0184 grain is such a minuscule thing compared to agriculture, masonry, lumber, and whatnot so it's often overlooked.
9,10 and 11 should’ve just been one massive industry because they’re all basically agricultural in practice.

Spectra Phantom I am pretty sure that was the point she was trying to make, having the primary black district have racism from the peacemakers. This series is really a look into our current society and history but in a dystopian future.
It is based off African slavery in the U.S.
Historically, before immigrant labor was common it was black people who worked in the agricultural sector. I also noticed the parallel between the public beatings that the citizens of district 11 got for literally anything they did, and the beatings slaves used to get for the same reasons. There was also the parallel between modern-day environmental racism, and the pollution of district 8 which seems to have poc. Weirdly enough, the poorest districts, district 11 and district 12 had the people with the darkest skin tones, dark brown and olive respectively.
right? lmao I was gonna comment that. They hate district 11 because they are black, but it makes sense as a real world historical parallel

Coriolanus Snow was the first peace keeper "unofficially" from district twelve and also the first known ex-peacekeeper to enter as a tribute to the Hunger Games.
being a fan of both the books and the movies, I really like the video. I just want to add one additional note. When Katniss kills Coin, it's not only because of her suggestion that they have a hunger games with the children of the Capital (though that may have been the breaking point), it was also in part to her realizing that Coin was responsible for an attack on medical workers after the assault on the Capital. They made it appear that Snow was responsible. Katniss's sister Prim was one of the workers and was killed in the attack.
So totaly agree
And she realized that coin was no better than snow, actually worse because she pretends to actually care
I actually never got the hang on if it actually was coin or some trick of snow but I still didnt like coin.
That’s for the spoiler douche(jk)
DracoTora Spoiler: she dropped bombs shaped as medical supplies, right? It’s been awhile since I’ve read the series
Thank you so much for mentioning the mayor and his daughter. I was deeply saddened by the fact that they didn't even get a small mention in the movies. In the novels I feel like they... the daughter, at least play a somewhat important part. I mean she gave Katniss the pin, she was the reason that she learned of the rebellion (Katniss was visiting her when she saw an uprising on a screen), was one of the first people Katniss thought of when she walked through the rubble of her district, heck, the daughter even walked through a snow storm to bring Peeta morphine. I feel like she's so important and yet... there's no mention of her.
yes madge was so important to the entire story. she gave katniss the mockingjay pin. i was so sad when i found out they didnt mention her in the movies
I feel the shows left a lot of important things out and even changed others. I'll always be a huge fan of the books. Not so much the movies.
Yeah i love madge she was amazing, i also wish she was in the movies.
Bellissimo Morte well it’s more of that Madge’s aunt plays a huge role, because she was in the hunger games with Haymitch and once owned the very pin that would be the face of the revolution
Is it just a coincidence that theres 13 districts? Like the American 13 colonies that rebelled except they lost the war and the Capitol is like Washington DC except bigger? Edit: Holy hell.

This is my most liked comment, anyway thanks to everyone who liked it and left a comment
I think Collins did mention the 13 districts was a nod to the original colonies.

6: transportation
7: lumber and paper
8: cloth items
9: meat
10: dairy
11: crops
12: coal
13: nukes
Capitol: drag queens
Correction, 9 was grain and 10 was livestock (meat). District 11 dealt with dairy within agriculture (and obviously crops).
8 is textile which basically means the same thing, but 9 is grainery, 10 is livestock(meat products), and 11 is agriculture( also handles the animals that produce things like milk,eggs,etc
Liberals
😂
I dont understand how Capitol people bunch of loser people, that make themselves look so ugly.
I noticed something. So, back then in the American Revolution, there was 13 colonies. In the Hunger Games there are 13 districts. Tell me if I'm wrong, but the British had got New York. In the Hunger Games District 13 was destroyed. Also, Snow was surrounded (spoiler) during the execution, just like how Cornwallis was surronded before being forced to surrender. I think Suzanne Collins was trying to repeat history in this story. It shows how history can repeat itself. Also, Katniss Everdeen became a symbol of hope and a great leader, George Washington was a great leader for the revolution. Plutarch and Haymitch could represent the Continental Congress, because the Continental Congress wrote the Declaration. Meanwhile, in the Hunger Games they had made promos. Its very interesting, I feel like the revolution piece of The Hunger Games was based off the American revolution.
Edit: Thanks so much for the kind comments! If you’re reading this I hope you have an amazing day!
As someone who knows little of American history, I like this analysis.
Bodybuild same
nice thought
Yes, I don't think any of this was a coincidence.
as someone who knows a lot about american history, i love this analysis! i'm just not sure if philadelphia wouldn't have been a bit of a better example rather than new york, since back then it was a bigger and a more important city, although new york was probably held by the british for a longer time (not sure about that though, will have to look it up). overall, this is a great theory!
This is more interesting than my history class was.
*Edit: some of y'all got pressed in the comments. I never said history was boring, I said history CLASS was relatively less interesting. I love history, and am a student of it in my free time. Teaching style and curriculum play a big role in interest-level and thus education. Please don't read into what people say. Just read what they say.
100% agree

True
depends on what you learn, personally i find anything other than US history to be fascinating

The more you think about the Hunger Games the more terrifying it gets.
yet you can't look away like a bolt of lightning or storm
I feel like we’re getting closer and closer to this becoming a reality.

I’m not so sure, oh queen of the drama
Yes man ! At least I’m a queen. 👑
Not even close
Won’t ever happen because dividing the states and making them only produce one thing is the dumbest thing in existence
I still want that prequel series. The formation of Panem would be really cool/compelling to see.
Th.El.Co._1 same omg
They should make a prequel film titled “The First Hunger Games”
ThePhenomenalMSS why though? It’s just the same as the other books but older. If anything, they need books on the formation of Panem
I wanna see the stories of haymitch and the other adults as well!!! We know what happened, but I’d like to see the other games and how things formed to what we got to see in the movies/read in the books.
As well as the first rebellion
My theory is the Capitol was formed from a fortress of some type that was built in the rockies to protect people from the disasters, and only the rich could afford to buy a spot. This could've been a way for the rich to guarantee their survival. This could be why people from the Capitol speak in a different accent from the rest of Panem, which could be because many rich people from around the world bought a spot in the fortress. This explains their overall extreme and lavish lifestyle.
jjray that sounds like switzerland
TheCapital is specifically centered around the Wasatch Front in Utah and the Capital city is centered on Salt Lake City.
Meganbubble District 12 was in the Appalachians. Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, the Virginias, and southern PA; not the Rockies.
Luke Wagers It’s more likely, based on their indistries, that they’d be in 10 or 12 than 11. Kentucky is nothing like District 11.
Luke Wagers considering that the appalachian mountains do run through eastern KY, kentucky would honestly probably have been divided, since it could sustain both farming and mining.
i also used to live in KY

Who else wants a prequel about Haymitch’s hunger games??
would love that!
theres a little thing before the second hunger games where they watch haymich's game
@@chaoticwayotic yeah they describe it a little bit but I want an in depth book with the entire game and before the game
I think they made a prequel i believe i saw it at Walmart
@@seanlintermoot yeah but it’s the one about snow and the beginning of the hunger games. I want one about Haymitch, I just think it would be such a good book.
And the movies were toned down considerably from the books; there was a lot less actual hunger in the movies. In the books, the Games would often stretch out for weeks, with little or no food available to the tributes. In the Districts and particularly 12, death from starvation was a real possibility, and that wasn't shown in the films...for obvious reasons.
A book can be as long and detailed as the author wants it to be but a typical movie is around two hours and 20 minutes - a running time that, plotwise, allows for a limited amount of content. Regardless of the length, filmmakers should never feel shackled to strictly follow a book, the film must be different from the source material. That’s partially just a matter of simple narrative physics. The books span multiple pages describing the life in district 12, whereas the movie simply has to show it in a few short scenes. Anyone who watched the movies immediately grasp onto the fact that hunger and death from starvation was a real possibility.
@@MrRobarino eh, for having a title "Hunger Games" and removing hunger and starvation near entirely from the movie, is not really excusable. It is not hard to do a time skip in a movie. They simply chose not to.
@@onikin I get it, you need all the information spoon fed to make everything clear and obvious. Story telling and character development are lost on people like you. I suggest you stick to SpongeBob movies.
@@MrRobarino I hated that they removed District 4 from the Careers, which also removed the shock factor when you realize that Finnick is a good guy in the next one. I also disliked that they made the chariot fires so tame.
The biggest disappointment was them cutting out the epic Duel of the Fates between Cato and Thresh. The biggest sin, however was the unneccessary changes to Cato and the mutts. Cato seemed like a regular guy in this movie. He was supposed to be like an unstoppable juggernaught that absolutely everybody feared. And those mutts? Ugh. They were just so wrong. So innacurate.
Cato also died too quickly. His brutal death was disgusting and horrific, and showed just how sadistic the Capital is. It also showed how selfless and heroic Katniss and Peeta were. Peeta, in particular put his own life on the line when he gave her that arrow.
I don't mind the other changes, since like you said, the audience is smart enough to figure it out.
@@MrRobarino also I heard they had to keep it pg13
I feel like we’re getting closer and closer to this becoming a reality
BeepDoo BopLop with global warming, chances are we’re gonna have something similar to Panem. Probably with the Games included
Yep, it's definitely happening.
i have to wait a century to change my name beans nah i don’t think so, humans can indeed stoop really low,but having kids fight to death in an arena??? yeah no. also you do know that the hungergames takes place CENTURIES ahead in the future?
@tjsavage711 You know, you have a surprisingly good point. It's rather hard to tell the difference between the worst society imaginable and the best society imaginable.
tsuyu asui I hope u know satanists sacrifice young children right? In thier twisted little minds, young vergin children are the purest energy for black magic. You telling me this shit is centuries ahead when motherfuckers pay loads of money to thugs to kidnap kids today homeboy?
Katniss didn’t kill coin because she suggested the second hunger games, she killed coin because she knew that coin was responsible for the bombing that killed Prim
And that because Coin would have just perpetuated the same barbaric crap that Snow, and those before him, perpetuatued.
@@DanknDerpyGamer yes very true. I believe the main reason was because of prim. Katniss even voted for the second hunger games
@@ghrowl I admit it's been quite a while since I read the books, so perhaps I have forgotten a thing ... or two... or 5 haha.
It was clearly for both of those reasons. And that Coin basically tried to get Katniss killed (by sending Peeta to her in his dangerous state). And that Coin was obviously a deeply unethical, power-hungry politician who was no better than Snow.
It was both
the Hunger Games might actually be one of my favourite movie franchises ever, like no joke... finished watching it today, hadn't seen the mockingjay movies, but I'd seen the first and catching fire; overall, I'd definitely give it a 8/10, I'm just interested in the history on Panem now
Sorry to disappoint you ... Don't watch mockingjay
The books are better
Prequel book in May... probably.
Same here. Just finished the series during this quarantine. I had only seen the 1st two. Just binged both mockingjays
There's a prequel book coming very soon called ballads of songbirds and snakes which talks about the origin of first hunger games. It'll probably be made into a movie but if not, you can still read the book.

Never

What North Korea is doing the hunger games and no one told me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That means I have a chance to be Katniss Everdeen
Was more a video of "Tasks of all districts" than "Origin story", but I rly enjoyed it
Katniss's reason to kiil coin instead of snow is in no way linked to the fact coin suggested a symbolic hunger games... it's not about that and is much much deeper than that
coin took control with no election, and also, and most importantly, killed prim - katniss's biggest motivation overall in the book / movie series...
True. But in the novel, it really seemed like her suggestion to have another Hunger Games was the catalyst for Katniss. She was unsure about Coin up until that moment.
@@jonesy2892 I think it was Prim’s death for her it was several reasons but I think that Prim’s death was the worst thing
Nah. Gale got all the blame for that. It was his idea, his planning, his mission. Even after Katniss called him on it, Gale still went through with it and it killed Prim.
Madame President got killed for wanting to continue the hunger games.
Both are about innocent children being abused and killed. Katniss was not doing that.
@@annaghaly5603 abortion who?
@@annaghaly5603 Gale's mission, planning and idea was to kill Prim and Katniss? Katniss almost died in that attack.

I was Kattniss at Halloween, nobody knew (probably because I was 10) but while trick or treating, a man whistled Rues tune, I screamed thank you at him!
Edit: Everyone saying I'm too young to be on UA-cam, my mom checks my UA-cam channel, she knows who I'm subscribed to and what videos I watch. I have her permission.
To be fair, Katniss is kind of a hard costume because she looks pretty normal. Plus, it was dark outside. Did you have a bow and arrow and everything?
Yes, I did have a bow and arrows. I also had a really bad mocking jay pin, it was homemade. My actual costume was black and it had a darker black Dragon type thing, this is how you make a Halloween costume when everything online arrives the day after Halloween...
I did "stab" an arrow through my friends eye hole in her mask, two highschoolers started reappearing "oh!" It was everything.
WOLFIE DRAGONITE GACHA ! Awesome, I was Katniss when I was 11!
Talk about weird. I was reading your comment while the video played and as soon as I got to the part about someone whistling Rue's tune, the whistle played in the video. Perfect timing.
r/thathappened
I still can’t completely condone how their mother emotionally left Katniss to raise Prim, but if she loved her husband so much she would move to The Seam for him, I can understand better how devastating it was to lose him.
I think what was shown through her was depression caused by grief and not a choice to let Katniss raise Prim
Don't forget she lost Maysilee (how to spell?) before that
She didn't emotionally leave Katniss and Prim, she became majorly depressed and stopped caring for both of them. By the time she recovered from her depression it was Katniss who emotionally left her mother...
In the first book Katniss addresses this when she talks to her mother before the Peacekeepers take her away to the games, Katniss's mother promises Katniss that she wouldn't leave again, saying it only happened because she didn't have the herbs she would need to cure herself. Katniss understands her point, noting that debilitating sadness is a fairly common affliction in District 12 that Katniss's mother has cured others of in the past.
@Bla Bla her mum did kinds suck, katniss was more of a mother to prim, I don’t see prim as her sister I see her as her daughter

They are making a prequel
there is a prequel about snow in the making.

God, I wish something like the Hunger Games would come along again. I feel like trilogies are dying.
Bearry biggg factsss. I really liked the maze runner thooo all 3 books were pretty interesting
Same but I think Hollywood cashed in on it and started making so many trilogy movies that people got bored of it. The Maze Runner was a really good series and I think it's the last one that had a lot of interest. But after that, people were over it.
Maze runner was good but the writing was a bit shite, excellent plot though
There’s a book series called the pendragon adventures. I highly recommend it if you like both the hunger games and Harry Potter series. I feel there’s too much detail to put on the big screen but rather a tv series. There’s 10 books by the way.
Legend is one of my favourite trilogies. In fact, I like it more than The Hungergames and that's saying something

The lore to this universe is actually really cool. The movies were kind of tacky at times but they’re still so good
The districts actually dont make any sense. Why would one district be used for only one resource? Natural resources are not clustered in their own areas. If there is silver or gold in the lumber district do they just ignore it? Also what happens if something happens to the food producing areas... everybody in the country would starve. Just seems really inefficient and illogical. Spreading out production creates failsafes if one center goes down. If the point is to separate the districts so the people dont feel connected to each other and they stay divided then surely dividing them along cultural, religious and racial lines makes more sense.
@@corvus2512 that's how they divide our current world atm lol
i honestly agree, really find the lore more interesting than anything else
@@corvus2512 Read the books. The districts resemble mining towns more than giant states. They were built where the resources were and those resources are simply the main export of each district. If you notice, they get food from four different districts, not just one. They have multiple factory districts that produce different goods for them. They also all have relatively small populations compared to the capitol.
Panem resembles a giant city, spread out across a large area. Even in modern society we break up local zoning like this having a "Mining district" "Factory district", and so on."
When I watch the movies I feel like I'm watching the books on fast forward ⏩ Plus they leave out a lot.
We need so much more hunger games! We need to see Finnick and Haymitchs hunger games, we also need more on snows past, like what happens once he’s under the Dr’s. Teaching. We also need to see katniss’s family tree, and how Katniss eventually came to be the way she is. We also need to see Katniss’s children! Omg there is so much more we need to see and know!
Dare I say we also need to know about what happened to Gale? Where is he? Does he get in touch with Katniss again? Does he feel guilty?. Okay I’ll leave now.
An excellent and well researched presentation of the 13 districts. Makes watching the movies easier... things make more sense... great job!!!

@@richardpackard590 its a strange concept though and it took me a while to figure out my viewpoint on it all but frankly Collins should have put a bit more of a back story because it kind of lacks one I'm not saying I don't love Collins' contribution to our world in the form of a book but it deserved more of a backstory
This actually makes the movies make a lot more sense
the books make a lot more sense
I wouldn’t even be in a district. I’m in the brown space lmao
Duckscito Master same, but I live close to district 1
I live near district 7
yeah, the coastal areas of the Earth were flooded from the ice caps melting back in the past at some point in the second half of the 21st century, so if you live in Florida or some coastal area, you live in a place thats under water and no longer governable. the coasts are just brown space.
At least the world has not ended in real life, its still the United states. I live in Ohio near the district 12 coal mines.
I live in 12
I’m in brown space, too.
I had a dream that I lived in the Hunger Games universe during the rebellion and that we discovered that there actually were countries outside of Panem and that some other countries also had Hunger Games. Snow and Coin knew about them but kept everyone in the dark about it. The other countries were then inspired by Panem's rebellion and got rid of their Hunger Games
Whoa whoa it's like the french and russian revolution where they got inspired by the American revolution, and Panem takes place in N. America
Okay. Now, I want the author to write new books.
@@thejomarifernandez7554same this is a really cool idea
Can we get a count of how many times he said "they were known to be rebelious"
This might actually be literally the worst way to run a country. Why would you centralise production sectors like this? What happens if an ore vein is discovered in the lumber district? Do they just go "oh we can't do anything with that, it's not allowed. Also not producing things locally would cost them an absolute fortune in transportation. How is the country not bankrupt? Not to mention if a natural disaster knocks a key sector out, or even just a region of food production has a bad season...
And how did the first rebellion not absolutely obliterate the ruling regime? All 13 districts rebelled and literally all they had to do was to hold one key district for a few months, e.g. the power district, and the capital would collapse into anarchy.
The distribution of districts doesn't even make sense, like why is there anything but farmland in the central plains? Why do the power and fishing districts need so much land? Why aren't the mining districts long, thin strips of land that follow mountain ranges and fault lines?
"Guys I have a great idea... we don't produce anything ourselves right? and so the districts basically have a gun to our heads in terms of food and resources right? Ok so I'm thinking we should oppress the hell out of them." - some jackass in power
I feel like when the world ended there must have been a survival shelter where they stashed all the incompetent people and their descendants were the only ones to survive because both sides of this conflict are indisputably terrible at everything.
the districts are waaayyyyy smaller than that, separated by wasteland and relied by train
ok its a movie calm down
It’s a fictitious story. Chill. How about you create your own story and write it that way. 😌
Woah brother. You are correct but don't write a fucking essay
you have a very looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong comment 😋
They should make a tv series about all the other hunger games
And it should be on TLC
Nick Giobbi no
Netflix could do it! It would also be really cool to see the formation of Panem and the civil war.
That would be really depressing but really cool.
there's enough potential for a ten year long series!
that could be the best ever.
Who should write and direct it?
It's interesting to me that certain districts and certain sections of districts have certain features. I noticed that in the movie too, which they didn't really highlight so much in the film, that the districts seemed segregated by skin color. District 12 reminded me of the concentration camps during the holocaust. Also, how the wealthier sections were blonde hair and blue eyes. President Snow reminds me of Hitler. Maybe Suzanne used him for inspiration to create Snow.
Based on LDS #DEZNAT overthrow of u.s. by mormons. And yes. It is very much a nazi agenda by the mormons.
Well Hitler did rise to power by killing his opponents as well. Plus pamen in general is an allegory of nazi germany as well other dictatorial regimes throughout history
I noticed that too. It’s interesting.
Even in district 12 the richer blonde haired blue eyed had better jobs like being bakers or butchers whislt the poorer lived more around the outskirts and were coal miners
