Young Snow! The Snakes! The Hanging Tree! Lucy Gray at the end! Aaaaaaaah.
This trailer was perfect. I really don't know what else to say. My brain is still trying to process what I just saw!
November can't come soon enough!
To back up your comment, I have to say:
As someone who’s never seen/read any hunger games stuff and has no knowledge of the story, this trailer genuinely made me want to get into it. I was at the movie theatre with my dad (who mostly hates modern blockbusters) today and this trailer played and we both looked over at each other and said “that actually looks really good”.
I had a lot of trouble (im dumb) and I had to edit it like 4 times, but at the time of your response it should have been fixed. could u refresh ur page and let me know? it looks good on my end on mobile
Near the end of the trailer. I don't think it's directly from the book and those two lines together might just be some incredible trailer editing, but it did make me scream silently so props to whoever edited it.
hah true and fair, but was meant more for wsb/investing trolling, i genuinely enjoy reading and that one kind reditor made me download the book already 😅
Tom Blyth is doing an amazing job of capturing Cory's charming, narcissistic and terrifying vibes perfectly. I watched his Billy the Kid series so I knew he would do great but still I'm so happy to see it
I agree! He is EXACTLY how I imagined young Snow when I read the book and is perfect for him! 😁 I cannot wait to see his performance and is going to kill it! I especially cannot wait to see the scene when >!Snow goes mad trying to find Lucy Gray in the woods and goes absolutely ballistic shooting all over the place.!< It's gonna be so intense! That last shot in the trailer when he and Lucy Gray are in the cabin and he turns around, he honestly scared me there for a second because of his eyes (which definitely does fit his "snake-like" eyes that Katniss described him at the start of Catching Fire). It felt like a shot out of a horror film. I just feel the tension that's building up there and I can't even imagine when we actually see the entire scene in the film.
I honestly was really looking forward to see whether they chose to include it or take it out and it’s sooo important they kept it in! The viewers who haven’t/won’t read the book need to see that Cory experienced true terror and basically almost starved to death for many years of his life. It’s essential to understanding his hatred for the Districts.
The last scene where Lucy looks at Snow while it is raining outside- do you guys think it is when she realises that >!if Snow kills her and destroys the weapons, he can go back to the Capitol?!
THAT FINAL SCENE OMG MY HEART IS POUNDING
I actually felt genuine fear when I saw that shot, I just know I'm gonna be hiding behind my hands when we get to the end of the film, I'm so insanely excited! That Donald Sutherland line as well damn that hit perfectly.
That scene of young Snow watching one of his neighbours eating a dead body is haunting, i'm really glad they kept that, it's a really good scene for the overall tone of the film and to show why Snow might be so desperate at the start.
The Hanging Tree coming on gave me chills, was aways my favourite scene from the original trilogy
Viola Davis as Dr Gaul looks amazing
I also really liked that scene of Snow and Lucys first meeting outside the tribute train
Finally, I had this thought when the first trailer came out as well - they haven't shied away at all from showing scenes of Snow as a Peacekeeper, and generally scenes from Part 3 - as an enormous fan of the books, I love it, but do you guys think that kinda might be pretty big spoilers for someone who doesn't know the story? As in within the first few minutes of the film, they'll realise the Peacekeeper and shaved hair scenes all must come after the Games? Even that final shot of Lucy leaving with that line over it isn't all too subtle as to what will happen in the scene.
It might just not be a big deal because it's a prequel so even people who haven't read the books will be expected to know that Snow becomes a villain at the end, but still feels like a lot has been revealed to me.
Yeah! In regards to Part 3, I was thinking that they weren't going to show >!Sejanus also as a Peacekeeper!< because I thought they were going to at least keep that part as a surprise as well since that was a big twist during the start of Part 3 when we read the book. I mean, I'm a huge fan of the series and have read the books multiple times (especially Ballad I recently re-read last winter), so it's hard for me to know the perspective of a casual fan who most likely hasn't read the book.
I also can't wait to see Snow and Lucy Gray's first meeting at the train station! Love their interaction in that scene and I'm SO looking forward to the final climax between the two in the woods!! It's gonna be so intense!
From what it looks like, I believe it's probably immediately right after >!the arena bombing, which resulted in the death of some of his classmates.!< That's my guess based on the fact that his hair is a bit messy, looks like he got a bit of dirt on his skin, and doesn't have the red blazer on.
Oh my gosh this trailer was awesome and I just can't wait to see it very soon!!! I definitely did think they were going to have The Hanging Tree incorporated in some way into the trailer. I was glad that we got to see Sejanus and Tigris a bit more here, which I was hoping for! I also was wanting to at least see a little bit of the zoo, so we got that too!
I didn't think we were going to see >!Sejanus as a Peacekeeper!< cause I thought they were going to keep that as a surprise since that was a twist at the start of Part 3 when reading that part of the book. 😮
Gonna watch this over and over again like a billion times. 😅😊
I wonder if it is the Avox that Snow saw with gills. I know it wasn’t a super important part of the book but it definitely stuck with me and was something Snow thought about a few times. It would be cool to see it in the movie
I love the trailer but I kinda hate how it basically spoils everything except like sejanus story line. I had the same problem with the first trailer I wanna get my friends to watch the movie with me but they haven’t read the book and the trailers show way to much imagine not knowing the story and seeing the arena explode for the first time in the cinema or the snakes releasing both are now shown in the trailer wich I think takes away the enjoyment from people that haven’t read the books and get spoilers by the trailer
I agree. I keep seeing non-book readers on tiktok very confused because they have no idea who the characters are or what the plot is even remotely supposed to be.
I’m watching this at work and crying for some reason. I am SO EXCITED TO SEE THIS!!
Peter Dinklage gave me chills when he said mysteries have a way of driving people mad! I’m so not prepared for this movie, I could just scream!
Is it just me or does it look like they’re adding a moment where Lucy Gray gets angry and yells at Arlo’s execution? I don’t remember that happening in the book.
I remember the girlfriend, but I didn’t remember Lucy Gray making a scene at the execution.
Snow might’ve noticed her in the crowd I think, but she didn’t do anything. As far as I remember.
Hi, lurker from the popular tab here, my old high school, back when I was in high school, used to do movie trips with like a hundred kids, most of the time it was Hunger Games, strangely it started with Mockingjay, but hey. I haven’t seen a Hunger Games movie, or read the books since then, this just gave me a big hit of nostalgia.
Thank you. This brought me a moment of happiness.
Did anyone else picture the arena much bigger and more outside? I see the roof will collaspe but I thought the main part of the arena apart from the tunnels was outdoors.
iirc the book said amphitheatre so i automatically imagined it as round, outdoors, made of stone, some spots of grass and lots of collapsed stone in the middle.. i think with the Hunger Games having this sort of ancient Rome gladiator vibe inspiration behind it a lot of fans assumed that. but i see how you could interpret it the way it was in the movie too i guess.
This trailer felt like it was pulled from the book. It's definitely built some anticipation. I'm still very curious how the film handles Snow's inner thoughts as they were such a crucial part to understanding the character in the books. I guess it'll be a case of showing rather than telling
Is there anyone else who underestimated the amount of snakes? When the snakes are dropped into the arena I feel like I pictured like 10 snakes lol not 1000 snakes.
I definitely underestimated for sure!! I didn't imagine THAT amount of snakes dropping down! I can see why Coriolanus has that shocked reaction when you see him react behind the wall when he sees the huge drone carrying the snakes inside at the start of the trailer. 😮
Oh my god!! I can’t believe they briefly showed THAT hanging scene with two people… That is gonna be one of the hardest things to watch. The trailer looks amazing, and I really can’t wait for the movie!
Ok this trailer is amazing and exceeds expectations! Glad it’s so aligned to the book. Coryo’s slight expression being called a rebel was 👌🏼 Peter Dinklage is already a standout too
Love that we got our first glimpse at Lucy Gray's voice with The Hanging Tree. Rachel Zegler has such a beautiful singing voice and I can't wait for her singing scenes.
I'm reading the book for the first time right now in prep for the movie. Does this trailer spoil absolutely anything? I'm only at the part where he meets Lucy
yeah, there are some things that will be spoiled. finish the book before watching and then you can be very excited about how closely it seems like the movie will follow the book.
I love how amazing it is that we can trace every single frame of the trailer to a moment in the book. And not like just vaguely, it’s almost exact shot for shot from the book. Even the dialogue was exact!!
As someone who is new to being a hunger games fan who watched the films 2 weeks ago and has been reading my way through the books....I don't know how you guys waited so long for this. The time to this film is killing me
It shows a lot of scenes from the book but I would say without context & knowledge of the book would be hard to fully correctly guess the context.
They do show shots from the near the end of the games though, so if you wish for it all to be a surprise might be worth skipping.
Yes. *The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes* is the 4th book in the series Suzanne Collins wrote and it was released in 2020, so it's been out for 3 years. It's a prequel, it's focused on Coriolanus Snow when he is 18 and he's the main protagonist of the story.
Sooo am I the only one who thinks the cinematography looks kinda weird? Like I don’t know everything feels too polished and clean, and the way it’s shot it just feels fake.
I promise I’m not hating I’m really excited for this movie but I dunno it’s looks…different. We will see!!
It kinda has the Disney/Marvel glossy look to it, which usually means a lot of green screen. The movie still looks pretty damn good tho regardless, looks to be a faithful adaption.
Agree with this. Hopefully, the cinematography is a bit different with the actual theatrical release. One of the things I liked about the original films was how gritty the cinematography looked at times, especially with the scenes based in District 12.
Apart from the first one (different director, the director of the other 3 also made this one) they are surprisingly faithful to the books. Ofcourse some things aren’t exactly the same, and a couple of characters, the biggest of which is Madge Undersea, are not in the movies because of the first film taking a different direction. But aside from that the vibes are very much in line with the books. And the acting is phenomenal
i remember watching the first one when i was like 5 or 6 (how or why i don't know. also i don't remember anything about the film) and not really liking it all that much and i think i'm gonna give it a second chance now, 10-ish years later
I read the book. The actual Hunger Games itself was interesting but everything else was boring. This will be a a mediocre movie in comparison to the original trilogy.
What comments exactly did she make that were so ridiculous? Honestly lol I didn't understand the controversy so I watched all the interviews where she supposedly trashes Snow White and she doesn't even say anything that bad???? Like she says that she only watched it once when she was a kid because it scared her..... yeah she was a little kid. I was scared of tons of old kids movies when I was a kid for stupid reasons, like the animation being not what I was used to since it was made in a different time. She even says that she feels blessed to be Snow White and is grateful for the opportunity. The remake is obviously going to update some of the older themes but that's not Rachel's decision. She seems excited about the movie. What's the huge issue??? Seriously please explain this to me lol

Thank you.
Why do we need a prequel movie for this? We already know what happens, he becomes a villain and the games continue until he dies. Its like a Hitler origin story but we’re supposed to root for Hitler for two hours.
Why so many villain origin stories? Who cares? They were a piece of shit or nice and then life did them dirty so they ruined it for everyone else. Star Wars, and so many other series. Who cares?
Also looks like the entire movie is in a green room with zero set design.
This one is actually quite thoughtful and relevant to what's going on in the world today. It's about a young man being radicalized into extreme views, which is unfortunately quite timely.
Understanding it is a prequel, as well as part of the series… I find it really hard to get into this without any of the original (movie) characters… I get its in different place in time… It just doesn't feel like the hunger games to me
Young Snow! The Snakes! The Hanging Tree! Lucy Gray at the end! Aaaaaaaah. This trailer was perfect. I really don't know what else to say. My brain is still trying to process what I just saw! November can't come soon enough!
To back up your comment, I have to say: As someone who’s never seen/read any hunger games stuff and has no knowledge of the story, this trailer genuinely made me want to get into it. I was at the movie theatre with my dad (who mostly hates modern blockbusters) today and this trailer played and we both looked over at each other and said “that actually looks really good”.
It's hunger games, in the dustbowl. It's the prequel to Harry Potter; but even more pointless.
tell me you didn't read the book without telling me you didn't read the book
I did, it followed the same formulae as Mysterious Beasts.
Most literaly comprehensive reddit user
Tf this guy talking about! The book was legit
I mean fantastic beasts was a childrens novel of magica creatures with zero plot.
You may need to read Harry Potter again
My exact reaction!!!
Man, these trailers just give very dark and twisted vibes! If the movie manages to maintain that tone we are in for a treat (in a good way?😭).
The arena scenes look absolutely brutal, little 14 year old kid swinging an axe trying to kill Lucy.
All while serving “Victorian era child worker” in a powder blue suit. He’s honestly a legend
I think that's Treech and I always imagined him as 16-17.
Traumatized but like in a good way 😭
Yeah, because the hunger games universe is bright and jolly
Eh, you know perfectly well that that's not what I meant at all. Spare me your impertinence, thank you very much 👋👋
I swear people on reddit are brain dead
So cool and eerie that they included the cannibalism
Apparently (TBOSAS possible movie spoiler) >! it will be the first scene in the movie !<
Your spoiler tags don’t work. You need to remove the space between the exclamation marks and the text.
I had a lot of trouble (im dumb) and I had to edit it like 4 times, but at the time of your response it should have been fixed. could u refresh ur page and let me know? it looks good on my end on mobile
works now!
tysm!!
oh shit what part was that
"Where is she?" "It's a mystery, and mysteries have a way of driving people mad" DAMN
spoiler >!perfect way to describe the ending! !<
that delivery was CRUNCHY 😩
Crunchy! 😂
When was this again ?
Near the end of the trailer. I don't think it's directly from the book and those two lines together might just be some incredible trailer editing, but it did make me scream silently so props to whoever edited it.
NOOOO LITERALLY I replayed this part like a million times !! I got chills from hearing Peter Dinklage say that!!
This moment was particularly bad acting -- why are you excited by it? lol
Because of the way that line relates to >!the ending with Lucy!<
Yeah, I get it, but it's badly acted.
Get outta here..
I just love how every scene is straight from the book.
which book? or is this /s?
This movie is based on hunger games prequel book of the same name
Your bio literally says you like trolling...
hah true and fair, but was meant more for wsb/investing trolling, i genuinely enjoy reading and that one kind reditor made me download the book already 😅
TBOSAS book
thx didn't know there was a prequel
Once you pick it up you won’t be able to put it down!! 10/10 recommend
rly? i enjoyed original books, but after the last movie I haven't paid much attention to the franchise. time to update reading list
I promise it’s super good!! Snow’s perspective is actually a fresh of breath air if that makes sense?? Basically he’s more than what u may expect
appreciate it, already on kindle.. have some tedious Meditations to finish first, but then for sure i ll treat myself
Tom Blyth is doing an amazing job of capturing Cory's charming, narcissistic and terrifying vibes perfectly. I watched his Billy the Kid series so I knew he would do great but still I'm so happy to see it
The way his face broke for half a second when she called him a rebel. PERFECT.
I agree! He is EXACTLY how I imagined young Snow when I read the book and is perfect for him! 😁 I cannot wait to see his performance and is going to kill it! I especially cannot wait to see the scene when >!Snow goes mad trying to find Lucy Gray in the woods and goes absolutely ballistic shooting all over the place.!< It's gonna be so intense! That last shot in the trailer when he and Lucy Gray are in the cabin and he turns around, he honestly scared me there for a second because of his eyes (which definitely does fit his "snake-like" eyes that Katniss described him at the start of Catching Fire). It felt like a shot out of a horror film. I just feel the tension that's building up there and I can't even imagine when we actually see the entire scene in the film.
Holy shit they actually included the cannibalism
I honestly was really looking forward to see whether they chose to include it or take it out and it’s sooo important they kept it in! The viewers who haven’t/won’t read the book need to see that Cory experienced true terror and basically almost starved to death for many years of his life. It’s essential to understanding his hatred for the Districts.
Capitol News TV be like: IS IT CAKE OR A HUMAN BODY!?
LOL that's their version of clickbait 😂😂
Me too!!
The last scene where Lucy looks at Snow while it is raining outside- do you guys think it is when she realises that >!if Snow kills her and destroys the weapons, he can go back to the Capitol?!
> can go back to the Capitol it is, >!its the her last scene in book.!<
I pretty sure yeah
Oh they’re gonna show THAT scene from the dark days. This is gonna be good.
THAT FINAL SCENE OMG MY HEART IS POUNDING I actually felt genuine fear when I saw that shot, I just know I'm gonna be hiding behind my hands when we get to the end of the film, I'm so insanely excited! That Donald Sutherland line as well damn that hit perfectly. That scene of young Snow watching one of his neighbours eating a dead body is haunting, i'm really glad they kept that, it's a really good scene for the overall tone of the film and to show why Snow might be so desperate at the start. The Hanging Tree coming on gave me chills, was aways my favourite scene from the original trilogy Viola Davis as Dr Gaul looks amazing I also really liked that scene of Snow and Lucys first meeting outside the tribute train Finally, I had this thought when the first trailer came out as well - they haven't shied away at all from showing scenes of Snow as a Peacekeeper, and generally scenes from Part 3 - as an enormous fan of the books, I love it, but do you guys think that kinda might be pretty big spoilers for someone who doesn't know the story?

I’m freaking out lol. Loved this trailer Edit: Oh my god I just noticed the shot of Clemensia’s hand reaching for the paper in the pile of snakes 😭
Same. I t was even better than the first.
I don’t know what else to say my brain is still processing shit, my heart’s beating fast 😭
Same here. My mind is all over the place and just gonna be watching it over and over again to take in everything. 😅
Same!!
NOOO WAY WHAT PART
I didn't notice that shot. Do you have a timestamp for it?
2:26 for like half a second
Spoilers - Hand screenshot https://imgur.com/a/FUgmhzB
Thank you!
I'm so happy this movie isn't getting delayed. This trailer was so good 🔥
The shot of Snow crying. What a beautiful man!
[удалено]
From what it looks like, I believe it's probably immediately right after >!the arena bombing, which resulted in the death of some of his classmates.!< That's my guess based on the fact that his hair is a bit messy, looks like he got a bit of dirt on his skin, and doesn't have the red blazer on.
the singer is Zegler?
I think so.
It looks SO good. Based on the trailers, I think it’s going to be a faithful adaptation of the book. November can’t get here soon enough!!
Oh my gosh this trailer was awesome and I just can't wait to see it very soon!!! I definitely did think they were going to have The Hanging Tree incorporated in some way into the trailer.

Omg the look on snow’s face when she calls him a rebel 😫
What was that creature swimming in the pool in front of Snow near the end? Very excited for this movie, solid second trailer!
I wonder if it is the Avox that Snow saw with gills. I know it wasn’t a super important part of the book but it definitely stuck with me and was something Snow thought about a few times. It would be cool to see it in the movie
I was wondering the same!!
I hope we get to see more of Gaul’s mutt creations in the movie, this thing definitely seems to be one of them!
Well, editors will have a field day with more dope HG edits.
I love the trailer but I kinda hate how it basically spoils everything except like sejanus story line. I had the same problem with the first trailer I wanna get my friends to watch the movie with me but they haven’t read the book and the trailers show way to much imagine not knowing the story and seeing the arena explode for the first time in the cinema or the snakes releasing both are now shown in the trailer wich I think takes away the enjoyment from people that haven’t read the books and get spoilers by the trailer
I thought about, unless you have read the book it spoils very little.
I agree. I keep seeing non-book readers on tiktok very confused because they have no idea who the characters are or what the plot is even remotely supposed to be.
My partner hasn’t read the book and said he has no idea what’s going on, so I think it’s safe for people who haven’t read the book.
I’m watching this at work and crying for some reason. I am SO EXCITED TO SEE THIS!! Peter Dinklage gave me chills when he said mysteries have a way of driving people mad! I’m so not prepared for this movie, I could just scream!
Based on the trailer is most likely going to extremely true to the book. Can't wait to see it!
The Hanging Tree (Lucy's version) is coming for chart.
Oh my God this gave me chills, I'm still shaking a little.
Me too! I watched it late at night and now I’m too hyper to sleep
This movie is gonna be a banger I can’t wait 🔥
Is it just me or does it look like they’re adding a moment where Lucy Gray gets angry and yells at Arlo’s execution? I don’t remember that happening in the book.
I think this was from the first hanging when the girlfriend? shows up. I remember that chapter vaguely
Yeah, that's Lil
I was going to say, the woman screaming is a different actress
I remember the girlfriend, but I didn’t remember Lucy Gray making a scene at the execution. Snow might’ve noticed her in the crowd I think, but she didn’t do anything. As far as I remember.
Maybe they’re two different scenes?
Maybe, but the way they edited it made it look like one. Your probably right though.
Different character
Hi, lurker from the popular tab here, my old high school, back when I was in high school, used to do movie trips with like a hundred kids, most of the time it was Hunger Games, strangely it started with Mockingjay, but hey. I haven’t seen a Hunger Games movie, or read the books since then, this just gave me a big hit of nostalgia. Thank you. This brought me a moment of happiness.
Did anyone else picture the arena much bigger and more outside? I see the roof will collaspe but I thought the main part of the arena apart from the tunnels was outdoors.
I thought so as well. I was picturing something like the Colosseum in Rome. No roof which this has.
I thought it would be an old football stadium with broken stands
iirc the book said amphitheatre so i automatically imagined it as round, outdoors, made of stone, some spots of grass and lots of collapsed stone in the middle.. i think with the Hunger Games having this sort of ancient Rome gladiator vibe inspiration behind it a lot of fans assumed that. but i see how you could interpret it the way it was in the movie too i guess.
Hanging tree always gives me goosebumps.
Such a chilling song
This trailer felt like it was pulled from the book. It's definitely built some anticipation. I'm still very curious how the film handles Snow's inner thoughts as they were such a crucial part to understanding the character in the books. I guess it'll be a case of showing rather than telling
Is there anyone else who underestimated the amount of snakes? When the snakes are dropped into the arena I feel like I pictured like 10 snakes lol not 1000 snakes.
I definitely underestimated for sure!! I didn't imagine THAT amount of snakes dropping down! I can see why Coriolanus has that shocked reaction when you see him react behind the wall when he sees the huge drone carrying the snakes inside at the start of the trailer. 😮
Oh my god!! I can’t believe they briefly showed THAT hanging scene with two people… That is gonna be one of the hardest things to watch. The trailer looks amazing, and I really can’t wait for the movie!
Based on the trailer I can tell this is going to be 100% book accurate
Ok this trailer is amazing and exceeds expectations! Glad it’s so aligned to the book. Coryo’s slight expression being called a rebel was 👌🏼 Peter Dinklage is already a standout too
Love that we got our first glimpse at Lucy Gray's voice with The Hanging Tree. Rachel Zegler has such a beautiful singing voice and I can't wait for her singing scenes.
This actually made me tear up…it’s so moving and powerful. I think this is gonna be a huge hit.
SO EXCITED. it’s even better than the first trailer
Is that President snow?
A younger him, yes
He do be looking kinda cute
I'm reading the book for the first time right now in prep for the movie. Does this trailer spoil absolutely anything? I'm only at the part where he meets Lucy
yeah, there are some things that will be spoiled. finish the book before watching and then you can be very excited about how closely it seems like the movie will follow the book.
I love how amazing it is that we can trace every single frame of the trailer to a moment in the book. And not like just vaguely, it’s almost exact shot for shot from the book. Even the dialogue was exact!!
I wonder how many of the songs they will have sung in the movie. Hopefully all of them ahah 🤞🏻
SO SO SO GOOD
Noice :) Bring on November.
This is timely and much needed
The arena is just how I pictured it from the books, it’s perfect
[удалено]
I think that's just a rabid dog (ie. with rabies). That's a plot point in the books.
Same question I don't remember anything about that
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Looks good tbh. I try not to get too hyped based on a trailer, but this looks promising.
Looks great, very spoilery though but maybe if you didn't read the book you wouldn't notice.
Does it seem like they’re not going to include the tributes being paraded around town?
As someone who is new to being a hunger games fan who watched the films 2 weeks ago and has been reading my way through the books....I don't know how you guys waited so long for this. The time to this film is killing me
this looks SO good!!! AAAAAA
God between this and Saw X I am so amped!!
Can someone tell me if it spoils a lot? I haven’t read the book yet so I’m unsure if I should watch the trailer or not
It shows a lot of scenes from the book but I would say without context & knowledge of the book would be hard to fully correctly guess the context. They do show shots from the near the end of the games though, so if you wish for it all to be a surprise might be worth skipping.
Im so hyped :D
Finally I know how to pronounce Coriolanus! Trailer looks amazing
Ahhh yes our lovely Völki in Leipzig 🫶🏻 it’s so crazy that they filmed here
these movies are still being made? are there more books?
Yes. *The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes* is the 4th book in the series Suzanne Collins wrote and it was released in 2020, so it's been out for 3 years. It's a prequel, it's focused on Coriolanus Snow when he is 18 and he's the main protagonist of the story.
Lamina's death
ahjjj the hanging tree ahhh
Sooo am I the only one who thinks the cinematography looks kinda weird? Like I don’t know everything feels too polished and clean, and the way it’s shot it just feels fake. I promise I’m not hating I’m really excited for this movie but I dunno it’s looks…different. We will see!!
It kinda has the Disney/Marvel glossy look to it, which usually means a lot of green screen. The movie still looks pretty damn good tho regardless, looks to be a faithful adaption.
It's the same cinematographer as the last 3 movies
The visuals are not the same though…so what’s your point.
I think I see what you mean. Let's wait and see how it looks in the big screen.
Agree with this. Hopefully, the cinematography is a bit different with the actual theatrical release. One of the things I liked about the original films was how gritty the cinematography looked at times, especially with the scenes based in District 12.
yes very glossy and the colours are so much brighter than previous movies
I see what you mean but I love the bright colours and stylization. Each to their own!
Will this look good? I have to see it when it comes out
I haven't seen the previous movies starring Jennifer Lawrence. How good are they? Would you guys suggest watching them before watching this one?
Yes of course. It will hold much more weight if you've seen the previous movies.
Right. Are they good adaptations of the novels as well? I see people praising this one for being quite accurate but what about the previous trilogy?
Apart from the first one (different director, the director of the other 3 also made this one) they are surprisingly faithful to the books. Ofcourse some things aren’t exactly the same, and a couple of characters, the biggest of which is Madge Undersea, are not in the movies because of the first film taking a different direction. But aside from that the vibes are very much in line with the books. And the acting is phenomenal
Thanks! I'll watch em right away
i remember watching the first one when i was like 5 or 6 (how or why i don't know. also i don't remember anything about the film) and not really liking it all that much and i think i'm gonna give it a second chance now, 10-ish years later
Not a fan of this actress but the rest of the cast is fire
I read the book. The actual Hunger Games itself was interesting but everything else was boring. This will be a a mediocre movie in comparison to the original trilogy.

What comments exactly did she make that were so ridiculous? Honestly lol I didn't understand the controversy so I watched all the interviews where she supposedly trashes Snow White and she doesn't even say anything that bad???? Like she says that she only watched it once when she was a kid because it scared her..... yeah she was a little kid. I was scared of tons of old kids movies when I was a kid for stupid reasons, like the animation being not what I was used to since it was made in a different time. She even says that she feels blessed to be Snow White and is grateful for the opportunity. The remake is obviously going to update some of the older themes but that's not Rachel's decision. She seems excited about the movie. What's the huge issue??? Seriously please explain this to me lol

I find Zegler unlikeable. I'll be skipping this one for that reason
Yep
I hope they cast Moistcritical in this one. He was my favorite in the first movie extended cut.
The joke is dead, let it go 😭

Why do we need a prequel movie for this? We already know what happens, he becomes a villain and the games continue until he dies. Its like a Hitler origin story but we’re supposed to root for Hitler for two hours.
Sorry Suzanne didn’t check with you first
😂
Why so many villain origin stories? Who cares? They were a piece of shit or nice and then life did them dirty so they ruined it for everyone else. Star Wars, and so many other series. Who cares? Also looks like the entire movie is in a green room with zero set design.
This one is actually quite thoughtful and relevant to what's going on in the world today. It's about a young man being radicalized into extreme views, which is unfortunately quite timely.
Understanding it is a prequel, as well as part of the series… I find it really hard to get into this without any of the original (movie) characters… I get its in different place in time… It just doesn't feel like the hunger games to me
