Never Forget.
Read the first book, saw the first movie, watched the second movie.

But this poo poo, mah laws. So bad. According to my idiot wife, the second part of the book is just a whirlwind of twists.

Sorry I meant to say I hope that the police use maximum force and kill or maim a bunch of innocent people, thus paving a way for a proletarian uprising and socialist utopia


also here's a stupid take
---------------------------->
so has the lead in these movies always had the exact same expression on her face for the entirety of these movies

because based on the last few years of trailers thats what it looks like

Yes, but in the actress' defense that's because the character is legitimately autistic in this vague and undefined way.

How did they handle the issue of Phillip Seymour Hoffman's death? Does the character just not show up again?

Besides it's like Reality TV Producers say:

"We can do everything in our power to make you look and act like an rear end in a top hat but if you're not at least part-rear end in a top hat you're not going to come across as one."

PERPETUAL IDIOT posted:

From what I heard he had finished all or at least enough of his scenes before his death that there wasn't any need to change production at all.

Beware the Cow





Hunger Games is a watered down Battle Royale with poorly written and convoluted political and social messages stuffed in there so the readers and viewers can feel smart.

My favorite scene in the Hunger Games series is that part when some lady strips in an elevator for no reason.
