hunger games deleted scenes that should have stayed in the movie 

it also makes sense why she starts also kinda reciprocating those feelings for him

@@wthtwice1432 did they show us peeta saving her? With the bread?

I agree but I'm glad they didn't keep the bred bcs in the books she recognizes it's bread from district 11 by the grains and cereals on it and its crescent shape, by its special fashion, because every district has a type of bread, but here the 11 painted on it just makes it look like a prop, it makes it cheap, and takes away the beauty of this gift, which here just has its meaning, but it loses all the craft that goes into the bread showing the actual importance of the bread and how its not just a piece of bred but a really nice expensive bread

Hmm looks like artisan bread, cheap? Gee idk

It was two victors of the same district so she couldn't have chosen anyone else lol

This! And I’m sure she WAS scared and nervous on that stage (who wouldn’t be?), but I have a strong feeling her sponsor encouraged her to play that up for audience sympathy too.

She is definitely the smartest 12 year old in her district for sure.

And the idea she pulled with the trackerjackers, genius!

@@musicorumformosus4274It saved Katniss, despite her getting stung.

oh so the guy that plays cato is an actual airhead

@@davidtwotw6836 Where did you get that from? What they showed of him talking in the movie is what Cato would say.

@@davidtwotw6836no he was still acting during the interview but wasn’t given a script

ah i can tell lol no offence but it was kinda cringy

@@SA-xi6gtbut very authentic. They are dragging random kids from the districts into the spotlight and asks them to act like super stars. Of course they are going to be cringy

She didn’t die because she got caught in the net

@@SF-pj6xv well technically she did she cried out for Katniss cause she got caught then the careers came and killed rue

She said that in her interview in the book just an unimportant fact lol

That’s not that clever lol

@@freeshavac-ado6704tributes from districts 1 and 2, they prepare their whole lives for the games and the victor is usually from one of those districts

It was probably the Victors/Mentors, since I dont think the people at home have a way of sending money. To me, that's almost a bigger deal. Thresh is still alive, but they send Katniss bread. I dont know how much that cost, but it wasnt cheap or else Dist 5 would have had foxface hide and sent her enough to keep her alive. They sent Katniss bread and made sure it was clear who sent it and way. It's the beginning of inter-district solidarity

True

@@savannahs8914 The capitol would have moved Foxface away from where she was or it would have been boring. Katniss go too close to the border so they sent a fire to keep her away (in the movie at least)

​@@savannahs8914😮

@Blue Browski yea her strategy going in makes her a really sad character to me like you really thought you could get by on your looks and flirting in a death battle ? She was the best out of all the girls in district 1 since they have mentors pick who they think will win and I honestly think she was just set up bc they thought Marvel would win and she’d be an easy take out for him ? Idk it’s just really sad her character is sad to me relying on pretty like that .

Yeah it hints more at some of the darker tones in the books that don't come up in the movies. Winning tributes were prostituted in the Capitol against their will. Katniss and Peeta only got out of that because it was of utmost importance that the appearance of their romance took center stage.

@@thornprick2645 I’m pretty sure they try to force it on tributes who are super attractive, like Finnick/Cashmere/Haymitch/Johanna. It was shown that Katniss wasn’t found attractive at all by the Capitol, and they considered her as “romantic as dirt.” But they changed their mind when they saw Peeta be head-over-heels for her. So, either way Katniss would not have been made into a prostitute. Peeta? Not certain. I think it was implied Peeta was found at least more attractive than Katniss.

@@buffyglimmers i mean technically if shes well liked by the people esp with her good looks, it can get her more sponsors and put her at an advantage

if she won she would have gotten the same fate as cashmere ☹️☹️

also, we dont see her or Peeta getting any gift from D12. I'd think those sponsorings are extremely expensive.

Why was it an act of rebellion??

@@japanssilver bc usually youre not supposed to care abt other districts so the fact they sent her that was huge and showed they respected her and wanted her to win

@@lolz1296 it was originally meant for rue, but then they sent it to her as a thank you for taking care of her

@@japanssilveri don’t think it was. according to the book, it was going to be given to rue, but when she died, they decided to give it to katniss instead since she cared so much for rue. they also decided to give it to katniss since they didn’t want to waste food.

She’s from a career district, most of them are volunteers!

Yeah she seemed even MORE ruthless and overconfident.

@@SwitchHiyyihLite but she’s so much younger than the others and she did it so early

​@@sebjoines7958 The actress was only 15. Definitely younger!

In the books it always said that Ceaser helped you out.

Yea I feel like he subtly wants the best for them

i laughed so hard at that scene 😂 like what

I could have sworn they included it in the film because I remember thing ringing part and her rustling leaves.

@@eventplanner461right like istg they have the scene of Cato I think it was killing boy 3

It's Peeta

@@shlafrock2175 I am aware - autocorrect

the night lock berries were only known to grow around the outskirts of 12 & 13, and even intentionally left out of the training game foxface had participated in. there’s even a theory that it was insinuated foxface wasn’t in her right mind due to starvation, and saw peeta collecting the berries making her think they were safe to consume

Agree with you, I think they did that well

Also, it sounds like Prim's scream is the answer to the question. What is his personal game signature? A 12 year-old child screaming in terror, that is his signature.

Hey, they had no idea what kind of weaponry, if any, would be provided in the Games. Really, the possibilities were endless. In any case, it was all horrific when we consider the "players" and the "game" itself.

@@LauraS1 but if you think about it, not only would guns be really boring for the people in the capitol watching, a gun doesn't fit in with all the other weapons used in either movie or in previous games we know about, AND a gun would be way overpowered for anyone who had one

@@downwindfish1 yeah I agree with you totally. I’m pretty sure none of the games have ever had a gun in them. it makes sense too, as they’d be far too overpowered and it’d ruin the “watch” for the capitol citizens as all the tributes would be dead pretty quickly

Актриса очень волновалась, так как Стенли Туччи был её любимым актером, а ягоды росли только в дистрикте 12 и 13, она вообще никак не могла про них знать

I hope I don’t come off as annoying and you don’t care but it makes more sense book wise, foxface is smart because she’s sneaky. She doesn’t know how to get food herself, her district is about power and electricity so she’d have no chance to learn about plants. Even so, Katniss is the plant expert and she aces the plant section in training and she even says the berries weren’t mentioned in training at all. These berries only grow on the outskirts of district 12, which is the only reason why she knows what they are because she hunts illegally like her dad did and he taught her. It’s why peeta doesn’t know because he’s a merchant, who’s more well off since his family owns a bakery so he’s never been out in the woods. Foxface dying is about how it’s just as dangerous to overestimate your components as it is to underestimate them. She thought they were safe because peeta was collecting them because he thought they were safe since there’s other berries that look similar that Katniss was eating before. It’s also why Katniss act with the berries was an extra punch in the gut for Snow, because it’s more proof of Katniss breaking the rules even before she was reaped for the hunger games, since she shouldn’t know what the berries are in the first place

On the old IMDB Messageboard, a Poster said something like,"I think The Hunger Games would have been even more brutal if a Tribute, trying to cheat by trying to get a headstart in the game jumped off the pedestal before the Game officially started and got blown up. That would have been really shocking !" The response was,"All of the Tributes knew that jumping off of the pedestal before the game officially started would immediately blow them up and no Tribute would risk that."

@@karicewillis nah breh i know i seen it, i know it existed in a different universe

For me it was honestly foxface. I loved her mindset and style. Reminds me of katniss just with a brain and not a bow.

@@MotivGuy94 same

For me it was Thresh (that district 11 boy)

Clove seems to be smugly smirking however....

In the books they actually said since they were stronger the branches would snap. I'm pretty sure someone tried to climb but they fell off.

If the branches were stronger they would probably be able to climb, but Katniss was smart enough to notice how weak the branches were.

I never liked that scene. Because it never happened in the books and it made Peeta seem wea while he actually did pretty good during training

@@daanvlastuin7787 me neither

@@yu1.exe_ oooooh I’ve only read the book recently so now I understand thanks

Yea

Me too. -_-

DENKI MY HUSBAND

It honestly wouldn't even be the full 11 minutes, a lot of these scenes are in the movie they're just cut shorter

I wouldn't mind the movie being an hour longer on cf aswell so many details I wish were in got cut from book to movie I still love them tho

Yeah this is a issue I have with the movie adaptations, but there is only so much detail they can make include unfortunately.

@@godsonalvarado6656 I’m ngl they could out every detail from the book into the movie and I would watch the whole thing 😭

Or how the districts are kept cut off from one another, and how it’s our introduction to the real purpose of the games, to turn the districts against one another and keep them blind to each other’s issues and how katniss’s choice to bed her body in flowers is even more important because you don’t see that act of unity in the games because it defies the games and their purpose

she deserves more screen time

I kinda wish they didn't kill her and petta and katniss managed to get her out of the arena

its definitely a good commentary/reflection on real issues

These whole interviews thing is so absurd and sickening but especially with the little kids.

True

Personally I like the interviews (with the exception of Glimmer), but I definitely agree that Rue's was the mosti mportant one EDIT: yea I just rewatched them and I'm glad they cut most of them lol, I'd like to have kept Rue and then *maybe* one career just to show how brainwashed they are

it's ironically sad because they only killed her because they caught her in that trap

i would’ve kept the interviews but at least have the full tribute cast in line

Dude i was in near tears at "if they can't catch me they can't kill me" Like how it was a "cute catchphrase"

@@shelbyr9434 I like glimmers because it kinda foreshadows what happens yo victors … like finnick …

I suppose they still got paid for their time but still, sucks to lose so much screentime

your*

this is very common in the film industry though unfortunately.

Pretty normal for actors.

Imagine you are lucky enough to get a minor role in a big movie. Then imagine you be upset and act like you are the star of the movie when one of your scenes is cut.

It would have also been the only time we saw someone receive something from sponsors other than the ones she got from haymitch.

I didn’t understand that part, si districts could send gifts? I did not know that

​@@dianamgdatait's written in the books. They can't put everything from the book into the movie.

​@@dianamgdatatechnically, it was probably the District 11 Victors/Mentors, using sponsor money. They probably get money from people betting on their kids and decided how best to use it (like Haymitch) and they used money they COULD have used for Tresh to send to Katniss, which is a big deal.

It was even smarter of him to tell them to fake weakness to the other tributes, but NOT to the capitol. Joanna made the capitol think she was weak too, which messed up everyone’s bets on who would win, and they killed her whole family for it.

I think they killed her entire family bc she refused to sell herself​@@110self-hate9

@@110self-hate9 I thought her family was killed because she refused to be sex trafficked? Like Finnick and Cashmere were

@@willback8513 I haven’t read the books in ages so you might be right haha, although I don’t know if it was ever officially said why snow killed her family so I guess it could be either? Unless it was said and I just forgot lmao

@@110self-hate9 Honestly it could be either, it’s never clearly established why or when her family was killed. Unlike Haymitch’s family, which were killed two weeks after he won the second quarter quell because of his stunt with the forcefield

awe

I think that was in the film

@TheFrog sadly it wasn't in the books

In the books, she doesn’t mention her catchphrase in the interview, but she does say it to Katniss.

@@delnadavid2589 oh

agreed.

Wait what?

@@nova14414 Peeta lost his legs in the books, it got infected after cato cut him and the medicine helped but after the games the capitols doctors couldn't save it so he became an amputee

Yeah and it effected him in the later books, like he almost does because of it. I agree

Also, the whole bit about the dogs being some twisted version of the dead tributes

Fr because it’s a huge plot line in the other two books like that’s why during the quarter quell he is slow and loud walking through the arena and not to mention katniss felt really guilty about him losing his leg

Prob an added reason for why they cut the scene

@@inkhwon True

Didn’t Katniss get the pin for Prim and said it would keep her safe? Then prim gave it back when she volunteered and said the same

​@@addiek2862that's what they show in the movies. In the books, the mayor's daughter Madge gives Katniss the pin during the final goodbyes after the reaping.

@@aakash2868 you’re so right

YES!

its actually not a "random old woman", its greasy sae, which is a character also existing in the books

The bread and hearing imo should have been redone & kept, but watching the scenes I feel like the choice to exclude them was due to the quality.

I was wathing hunger games and somehow saw these scenes thoo, it felt like movie was realy long, like two times longer. Thats kinda strange.

the scenes r in the book. well most of them, not the interviews. rues interview if they can’t catch me they can’t kill me was in the book and the bread from 11. and when rue and kart is talk about district 11

Right? I couldn't help thinking that they all look dressed up like they should be in a play or going to prom or something normal for their age.

💯 panning down the line of child tributes made my stomach turn and my heart ache, really showcasing how sick and twisted these games are for their entertainment. They should have left that part in.

and also them getting rid of when peeta loses his leg

@@Lily-is4gt yeah that’s a pretty important weakness of his for book 2 as well.

@@Lily-is4gt wait what? I haven't read the books so please explain 0-o

@@nova14414 basically at the end of the first book peeta gets his leg bit by one of the hounds, and he ends up getting it amputated and has a prosthetic for the rest of the series

they offscreened tresh and cato's fight AND implied tresh was killed by the mutts, also tresh in the book dies before foxface

Finnick was the youngest at 14 at least living to my knowledge

@@brennathecatlover4360correction: the youngest to ever win hunger games

@@rosalicedouati yea ik he was but at least on record since I don’t think they barely kept track in the beginning

It also makes them more human and shows how brainwashed they are

Lmaoooo

Not really. Most rich kids get taught about politics already by their parents to keep the generational wealth.

elaborate? you mean to the actors or the characters?

@@rahtsnake144the characters. Many of the winners of the hunger games were prostituted to people in the capital f.e Finnick. Snow wanted to do this with Joanna but she wouldn’t have it and that’s why he killed her entire family and why Joanna says “You can’t hurt me I don’t have anyone” in the third quarter quell.

Same, tbh i was nearly in tears, also the way Katniss treated her like a little sister as well, I was crying when Katniss burnt her leg as well

how come you were shocked? she would've died one way or another it's the hunger games

@@partypoison5135still super sad

@@ieatdirt3 i know i was sad but inknew it was coming

Part of those scenes are in the movies. Like we see peeta twist in the rope then fall but we didn't see katniss watching him, we just saw her get up and go to him after he fell. From the 'katniss covinced that peeta teamed up w the careers' the flash backs werent in the movie but everything else from that scene was. They cut it after the careers leave and then she goes to sleep. most of these scenes are just the extended versions of what we saw in the flims.

The katniss looking out for peeta was in the movie but this version is alot longer than the scene was in the movie

@@juanmoyajr9102 and from another angle also.

I can remember that gale taught prim to make a rabbit trap and the district 11 bread scenes were actually in thr movie also a scene in the bigginning of the movie when prim has a nightmare but you could actually see the nightmare as she gets Hunted in the forest. Also i can remember a scene where president snow takes a walk with the gamemaker in the capitols gardens

I think that was the directors cut one

I think including Marvels would have been helpful for background, since he is the one who got Rue.

Maybe they cut it bc they'd have to include when peeta was explaining the different districts breads in the interviews?? I wish these movies were longer or even split up like they did with mockingly

Yeah, I don't get it either, but I guess they decided to go with the scene where Katniss salutes to the cameras and District 11 rebels.

Actually, it is believed that foxface committed suic1de, seeing how she saw that from a physical standpoint, her body was significantly smaller than the other tributes, and if it came down to a fight, she would die. So basically, she took her own life before someone else could.

@@_InsomniacPenguin_she didn’t know the berries were poisonous

@@nevaehwilliams6200yeah she did. In the movie she was seen organizing berries to there danger on a computer screen. She knew that they were bad

I watched catching fire today, I love the concept of the second arena but it was very short, imo they should've started the games before ~01:20:00 and rather shorten the beginning

@@spaghettiwrynnsurpremacy Yeah but the second movie was less about the games and more about the start of the revolution, which all lead to the second arena. However, even with the short time in the arena, I think they did well in showing how gruesome and mentally torturing it was for the tributes involved.
