Welcome Welcome Welcome. Chins up Smiles on


Yep Were back to my obsession with the hunger games people. Time for Katniss to take us on an emotional roller coaster once again.


We are back from Bank Holiday Mini Golf  (which i won SHOCK HORROR dad wasn’t please) & the dolphin game on the pier & i asked what people wanted to do & dad said oh im going to mow the grass & mum said she would iron so i had the lounge to myself so decided to put on catching fire for old times sake, after about 20mins i realised everyone was now back in the lounge & both were doing there 50 questions routine.


They both enjoyed it, my dad is the king of watching something half way through though so i knew he would, he also thinks Jennifer Lawrence is amazing (and not in a creepy way) in everything.


I know the first sets everything up and should always be seen as the original but this one is the back bone of the franchise, the one that i love most of all. The way they deal with the things you dont read about in the book, as that is from Katniss’ perspective. so here we see presidents snows plan against her from the start. We also learn a lot more about the games makers too.


There is one thing that i wish this film had done which is in the books which is perfect which i would happily see if they wanted to make prequels as its one of my favorite things ever. Haymitch’s hunger games. It shows why he has his relationship with Katniss, & why they are more alike, it shows why he is like he is & explains an awful lot about why everything is the way it is. When i read this for the first time i was like omfg. i re-read this chapter quite a lot, its one of the best stories of the books. so when it came to making film it was all like yes, this is it they are going to do the 50th games yes yes. NOPE THEY FUCKING DROPPED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Its also the real story of Katniss’ Mocking Jay Pin which is so pivotal to everything, it also ties up the whole Katniss remember who the real enemy is thing, & why everyone goes against the capital. It made me so angry that this wasnt in the film. Which says a lot as its my favourite of the four.


We also dont do Avoks & that they are friends of Katniss, or an earlier discussion about district 13, when we left the cinema after seeing it my friend said so there are extra districts??? argh


Cinas death is still the saddest thing ever, even sadder than Mags. He knew it was going to happen, but the fact that he knows this & that Katniss is likely to witness it, just hurts more. When ever i see him when he puts that dress on her, to turn her into the mocking jay, it just makes my eyes water.


Obviously changes with the capitol & the training etc as when they did the first film they didnt know they were going to make the others, so they had to recreate, but being a special games they can get away with it.


Finnick should have just fucking killed her to start with though he could easily be the face of the rebellion, he could kill her escape & then go with Annie & take over the world. Theres also plenty of moments when he can let Peeta die more in the book than film, but he had enough opportunity.


They could of let Katniss know about the mocking jay plan, would have been much easier to tell her before she walked into the games.


When all the lightning goes off on that tree & it all explodes i still love that. My dad actually sat there & went is she dead, i did have to point out to him that there are 2 more films & he went oh shit thats a good way to end it if shes dead then the rest of them can fight in the mocking jays name.


not sure why they didnt use the hoover craft in the first one but did here, still throws me slightly.


Its an epic film the best of the 4 i love it to pieces & i dont care if that makes me a fan girl or crazy or whatever. I love it despite all the flaws ive just listed.
