there's something suspicious about THE HUNGER GAMES... ~ reaction ~ 

The bread being burned was significant--he burned it deliberately so that his mother would tell him to throw it out and he could get it to her as soon as his mother wasn't looking. He also took a beating for it.

the movies didn’t do it justice at all but the books made it very clear that peeta was the more charismatic of the two

I love how you have Katiness EXACT same thoughts about Peeta in the beginning and being just as wrong as she was lmao

Peeta is the sweetest character 🥺🥺that's my short king right there

“And it starts with the letter P” I literally trust Peeta so much that my first thought was “PRIM??? Tf did she do??” 💀💀💀

It's so funny that you suspected Peeta's feelings the whole time but thought Katniss might be falling for him, when Peeta is genuinely totally into Katniss from the start and Katniss is the one pretending lmao

the beasts in the book are even scarier, Katniss describes how all of them look like tributes that have died and literally have their eyes 😟

I really need Brad to see Finnick in the sequel

Peeta spent several days doing his makeup by the river while he bled out. What a queen, I love him

So the story with the bread actually is very important. Peta family own a bakery and he was supposed to throw the burn bread out for pigs, but he saw Katniss, pretty much dying bc she and her family didn't have food at all for a few days in a row. He basically save her life there but his mother beat him for it 😭 And Peta seems like a bad player coz he soft and stuff, but he's actually pretty smart and play amazing game by playing at people emotions and manipulate them as he want. He's the goat Also books are so much darker then the films. Like for example Peta loses his leg at the end of the games and Katniss loses her hearing in one ear.

In the books, you find out that tributes from Districts 1 and 2 actually train their entire lives and volunteer to go into the arena because they see it as an honor and a way of gaining fame/glory. So when the Career Pack is cheering while chasing after Katniss, they fully see it as a fun sort of cat-and-mouse game. They’ve had so many years of victors coming from their districts that I don’t think they really fear the reality of what the Games mean.

back at the end of the vid to say: peeta is one of the best written characters in history. he’s such a sweetheart but also extremely extremely smart. i hope you continue watching so you can get to like and care for his character more !! :)

Please don’t be so judgmental of Haymitch. He is fucking traumatized. My guy won the hunger games in a year with DOUBLE the tributes (so 48 instead of 24) and had to mentor and watch two tributes from district 12 for years, each time knowing they had no chance of winning. No matter what he said to them. He is depressed as fuck and I don’t blame him. He has to watch kids go through the same trauma he went to and also die. That’s gonna fuck you up.

Re: Peeta’s crush…very much real, Peeta basically fell in love with her at first sight when they were kids. However, Haymitch definetly exploited this and tried to use it to both of their benefit in the games

Sadly they build in the extra scene where snow complains about her getting the score of 11 which implies that she should have got a low number as punishment, while in the books it later got clear, that they use the higher numbers to make someone a target for the others to group up against.

Peeta’s just an amazing character, both as his movie and book version. He has it rough in both, but bless him the books do not let him or anyone get a break. 🥺 Haymitch has it bad too, can you imagine winning your hunger games then having to watch all the kids you mentor going to their deaths, no wonder he mean, alcoholic and can’t be arsed at the start.

Your strategy is how Joanna (from the sequels) survived and won her Hunger Games, she acted weak and scared so people underestimated her, stayed out of most of the games letting everyone die off or kill one another, and when there was only a few left she went on a rampage and killed them all with her axe

Peeta was my absolute favourite character from the first minute of watching the first movie, and then reading the books straight away I loved him even more. He’s just the representation of the best, most genuine, with a good heart, charismatic and intelligent person. ❤

The reason Gale's name is entered so many times is because his family is so poor, they have to use the system called tessera. The capital set it up to target the poorest people in the poorest districts. Basically a child will enter their name one extra time a year in order to get grain and oil to feed one person in their family. You could put your name in for every member of your family. In the books they talk about Katniss putting her name in three times every year since she was 12, for herself, her mother, and for Prim, so the family could eat. Gale did the same to feed his family. She had 20 entries at 16 and he had 42 at 18.

The dogs they released into the games are called "Muts" because the capitol created them. They are a mix of dna from the deceased tributes and some kind of dog or wolf, I can't remember for sure. The book is so much darker at times, but I think these movies are some of the best book-to-movie adaptations.

you having the same thought process as book Katniss about peeta is so funny to me LOL

The thing about the group hunting Katniss is they’re called the careers. Basically they trained their whole lives to volunteer for the games so that’s why they’re happy to be there. They were manipulated into thinking winning the games was the highest honor so they wanted to compete in them.

"There's something suspicious about The Hunger Games..." Is it that it's becoming more and more realistic by the day? LOL.

the next movie is so iconic it’s genuinely such a slay you have to react to it! you’re gonna be drooling over someone in it as well 🤞

"... but is he smart enough to do that? all he can do is throw things" WHEN I TELL YOU I SCREAMED lmaoo

the other tributes that peeta was teaming up with are so called "careers". They train in their districts for the games before they enter and then when they are lethal with their chosen weapons they volounteer for the games and they are basically brainwashed to think that killing is fun and that the games are just a competition to bring honor and riches to their districts and not a death game. And yes Peetas love for Katniss is real and when he teamed up with the careers he only did it to protect her by leading them away from her (which failed because the gamemakers made her move closer to where the careers were by creating the fire)

Love how you were trying to read Peeta's lips, when actually he was pointing at Cato's hand, so Katniss would shoot him there. Somehow you knew he was trying to say something😂

Rue took the spear out because she knew there was nothing that could've been done, unless Katniss knew how perform extremely advanced surgical procedures 😢 she didn't want Katniss to waste time treating her when it was gonna be all for nothing... I didn't realise this myself when I first watched it but when it clicked... it broke me 😭😭

peeta burnt the bread on purpose to feed to katniss, his mother caught her digging in the trash for food to live. he burnt the bread for her, but he got hit in response (his mother is abusive) he was told to give it to the pigs but he gave it to her

This is exactly what I need right now. Love you Brad!

Josh Hutcherson is so hot throughout this entire franchise. Great casting choice

I didn’t care about peeta in the first movie😭… but he grew on me💛… he’s just so sweet😭.. and her protecting him instead of him protecting her, makes it so much better

Katniss Everdeen is 2010s Teenager Experience as a person. The odds were not always in our favour though.

Peeta makes me giggle with his interviews EVERY SINGLE TIME. He is just so funny

You reacting exactly how Katniss reacts in the book being like “what kinda game is he playing saying he likes me, fucken mind games, bitch two can play mind games” when Peeta just genuinely loves and wants to help Katniss get home to her sister lol

It always bugs me how badly they portrayed Peeta in the movies...Peeta in the books was so sweet and certainly more charming and smarter than Katniss...they took out so much of his personality and story in the movies

For some context on why glimmer, marble, clove and Cato where so happy to be in area is because they are careers meaning they have be training for the games since a young age

Brad I AM SO HAPPY you started Hunger Games. Like i am OBSESSES with Hunger Games and seeing my fav youtube content creator react to it is just perfection for me. Hope the other Hunger Games videos are out as soon as possible!

I love your channel so much. Lots of fun, and laughing at your reactions. Like when Cato fell after trying to climb the tree and when Snowfall crowned Katniss. I love it. Keep your videos coming. Thanks for sharing. Lots of love to you. 💛💛💛💛

The system is mentioned very quickly in the movies, but not fully explained. We know that your name can be in many times, and Katniss tells Prim not to buy food with more name tickets in there. But it's glossed over imo. So, your name goes in once the first year you have to take part. Then twice the second year you take part. Basically every previous entry stays. You can also buy a year's worth of oil and grain, but you have to put your name in one extra time. You can get food for family members too, and every year supply is one more ticket. So say you have three siblings and two parents, that's 6 extra tickets to feed the entire family, every year. And those entries stay with you too. So that would make it 7 tickets your first year, (1 for the year, and 6 for food), but 14 for the year after, (the 7 from the previous year, the 1 from this year's entry, and 6 for food). The third year means you have the previous 14, plus a new one for that year and another 6 for the food. So the poorest families who need the food the most will have to put their children's lives at risk to be able to eat. And kids with a lot of siblings might have to put their name in a lot of times for food. It's not really been explained in the movie yet, but Haymitch is the only person from district 12 who won. He's super traumatised from having to be in the games, and he has to mentor two kids every year, and watch them die. Basically reliving his own trauma in the process. The career tributes are as much a victim of the whole system as Katniss. They are just lead to believe it's a great thing to be reaped or volunteer and it's super cool to die for their district. They're trained their whole lives, they don't really know anything else.

Peeta is literally one of my favorite character from any book/movie. I love him so much, he is such a sweetheart

21:35 Brad: Can people die from bee-stings? * Bridgerton has entered the chat *

From the wiki on why their names are in more than once. Once of age at twelve years old, a potential tribute's name was entered into the reaping one time. The entries were cumulative with each passing year, so when a possible tribute was thirteen, their name was added one more time and again at fourteen and so on. This continued until age eighteen, when a potential tribute's name was entered seven times. For the residents of the various districts, any child between the ages of 12 through 18 could apply for tesserae. This supplied them with a year's supply of grain and oil. They could choose to do this for each of their family members as well. However, each tesserae they signed up for put another slip with their name in the reaping ball, which was also cumulative for each year they applied for tesserae. As such, sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen had her name put in the glass ball twenty times, having applied for herself as well as her sister and mother for five years since the age of 12. Similarly, Gale Hawthorne, who had five family members including himself, did the same for seven years and thus had his name put in the glass ball forty-two times. The amount of tesserae taken was larger in Panem's poorer districts, such as District 12 and 11, but much rarer in the more affluent district of 1, 2, and 4.

I read the books in high school, in fact the first book was part of the English Curriculum, where they divided the class into the districts and you earn points through getting top marks, various challenges like seeing who could throw a paper airplane the farthest, a general trivia contest about random history, science, geography etc. I won the contest for my team since I have terrific recall skills to retrieve information like the population of another city in Canada down to the 1000 since I read somewhere once before. I earned alot of points for that and I got the biggest bonus for having the most detailed and accurate timeline of the events of the book, down to who died on which days etc. My district one and our reward was that at the end of the novel study part of the course, we had a party and got first selection of the snack food. We also got to see the movies on release day in movie theaters. From book to movie adaptation, it was pretty good though but Peeta definently does not quite match the personality and cleverness he had in the books. The funny thing is one day I left the first book at home by mistake and my mom read the first few chapters and then bought me the whole book series that day since she knew I loved reading and found the premise engaging. My favorite book series(Percy Javkson) had God awful adaptation for the two films it got. The only thing that the first film got right was the character names, they made up their own plot with the only similarity was that they end up in Los Angeles towards the end. They also killed the main rival in the first movie but he is alive and working against the protagonists for all 5 books.

The careers aka the crazy laughing children were taught in their districts that the games are the best thing that ever happened and basically brainwashed them into thinking that they need to volunteer or get reaped into the games to be important.

I hope it's not a spoiler or yes, but in my opinion the team of Kat and Peeta complement each other well, Peta is excellent at dealing and fighting with politics, while Kat is an expert in combat. Soooo Slay 💋

The way I audibly gasped when I saw the title! I loveee the hunger games and I’m sooo happy that your watching them

Bro I was obsessed with this book series in High school (and Peeta). I wore a Hunger Games tshirt to the premier of the last movie. I was a total nerd about this at 15.

Hamish is a former contestant of the hunger games who won in the 50th games he’s a drunk because President Snow had his entire family murdered as an example to other contestants, who do not do what snow wants

peeta has crushed on her since he first saw her when they were 5

They made a few cuts from the books in the adaptation. One notable thing was how much more the environment and animals were there to fuck with the tributes. The game makers were able to literally control the weather. Often times it would endlessly rain on the tributes, there were more environmental hazards, and more of the hybrid animals, like the mocking jays and tracker jackers. Along the animal line of thought, in the books, there were 9 dogs that showed up initially that all had the district numbers on their collars. When Katniss looked into one of the dogs' eyes, she said she could swear they were Rue's eyes. She then thinks how the losers were sent home in pine boxes, but they were always nailed shut.

Brad: "Can people die from bee stings?" My inner cinematic trauma: "Where are his glasses? HE CAN'T SEE WITHOUT HIS GLASSES!" IYKYK

Just came over from watching Chuuzus’ first-time reaction. I am so glad that folks are still watching these movies. I love them and and how faithful they were to the books. Thank you for the content, Brad.

YESSSSSSS!!!!!! I grew up watching The Hunger Games & i remember CLEARLY when i watched the last movie, i was in 4th grade! All of my friends & classmates were talking about watching the last movie! 😍😊😊😍

Imagine someone in the hunger games finding a camera taking it down and starting a hunger games vlog 🤣. This thought is the only thing keeping me from having nightmares from watching the movies. lmao

It's so weird that you would choose this because I JUST watched all four films for the first time last week (over four nights) mainly because all four had turned up on NetFlix at the same time, which is kinda rare so I jumped at it. Re-watching it again with you so soon afterward is a great way to sum up the whole experience (the same way it was with "Wednesday") so I'm hoping you do the other three as well.

I loved this, pls do the rest of them 😊 The Hunger Games is my favourite film franchise alongside the IT films. I can’t wait for you to experience them again. I’m also really excited for the new one, “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes”, coming out in November. The book was amazing and Francis Lawrence (who directed Catching Fire and Mockingjay Part 1 & 2) is directing it so I think it gonna be brilliant 😁😁

i literally opened youtube thinking i wanted to watch a hunger games video... first vid in my recommended is a hunger games reaction from my fav 12 minutes ago🥳

Brads laugh is so contagious 😂

Funny fact but the guy who plays Cato auditioned to be Peeta but lost out to Josh Hutcherson. It's not super surprising since out of the main three, I think Josh was the most mainstream actor for the YA age group at the time since he's a child star.. Before this, Jennifer was mostly in indies and while she got critical acclaim, ,most people outside of the film world didn't really know her. She also did XMen First Class but she got this role while she was filming for XMen and at the time she was more highly anticipated for this movie.

omg yessss i waited all week for this, i’m so excited for the next ones u never fail to make me absolutely cackle w ur vids, thank u for ur service brad 💋

OMGOMGOMG I WAS WATCHING THIS TODAY!!!! IM SO HAPPY UR REACTING TO IT The best surprise ever. LOVE UR VIDS BRAD❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This movie is ingrained in my brain cause we had to watch it so many times in English class and the class would erupt in laughter every time peetas moss scene came on LMFAOO

ive been waiting for this one omg love your reactions sm literally finished my marathon rewatching these yesterday too

yay! so excited and love your reactions brad 💕💕💕

I was so hyped to hear Alexandra Burke!! Bad boys, start without you and broken heels are songs I play often! Definitely all underrated bops!

Peeta should be put in a jar, so adorable. In the books he is even more adorable

Apparantly Graham Norton auditioned for the Cesar Flickerman talk show role. And now I can't stop thinking how awesome that would have been too! LOVE some Graham Norton!

I LOVE THE HUNGER GAMES AND NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO REACT TO IT SO THIS GENUINELY MADE MY WEEK

This video is so good Brad, made me laugh throughout 😭

Okokok. Your cutaways and edits and sound clips are the absolute best. I just subscribed, but I’ve watched quite a few vids in the past week. Enamored and addicted. Then I realized the source of one category of sounds clips on this vid that made it all make sense… Sicario has one of the sickest sound cues/scores of any movie (series) I’ve ever heard. And you’ve incorporated it perfectly with your sense of humor. And it’s awesome, luv. As are you. Cheers from Detroit, MI. And Happy Holiday’s to you.

I literally cried this entire video. This is the BEST edit I've ever seen. 🤣💀

Terrific editing again Brad👀 Just the fact that Hunger games is such a serious movie and I literally laughed out loud for 33 minutes straight🤣😂

You are so hilarious I can’t love the editing as well 😂 thought I put this on before bed and it so funny loved this reaction 💕

Saved this video for after my exams! and here i am! i absolutely love this series!

Ofc we want the rest of it, Brad😭❤️‍🩹 lotsa luv

I haven't laughed this much all week this is why I watch your channel queen 💖

god your editing is always topnotch. the "hey queen" when rue showed up killed me. 😭

yess loved these books and movies! please do the rest, love your reactions as per usual

I love that in Beveraggi reaction he immediately fell in love with Peeta and here Brad just think the worse of Peeta 😂 love seeing the different reactions from my favs

You should definitely watch all of them. I think we would all love to watch it with you.

This a case of you must read the books, they are truly so incredibly written!! It’s a totally different experience to just watching the movies. I think that’s also true of Harry Potter series and another book I loved was Water For Elephants. Amazing reading experiences that suck you in.

the way i’m only half way through this video and i’m SCREAMING at the editing and the reactions 😭😭😭

Have you seen Divergent? If not, maybe that'd be something as well. I love any video with you 🥰 but of course first time reactions are the most entertaining.

man I wish I could watch things a second time and still feel all the feels. I hyper obsess every time I watch something new I like and memorize every detail so I cant experience that high again.

Loved watching this with you! Great video ❤. Please, watch the rest with us too! You make me smile Brad, and I love you for it!!! 🥰

IVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG. I can’t wait for the rest of the movies.

I have been WAITING for this ughh. Sending you love from Wisconsin! ❤

Brand here analysising haymiches teeth...and I am lovin it 😂

100% should do the rest of the films! loved the reaction!

the way he said "bees😬" (21:26) i"m dead💀💀💀

LOVE THE VIDEO Brad!!! love this sagaa

yessss!!! my favourite movies ever and book series…i better not be upset by ur reaction also edit: there’s a prequel coming out this year (november) that explains the origins of snow & the games. the book is amazing so i’m expecting the film to be just as good

Loved this reaction sm!! Can't wait to see what you think of the characters whilst you watch the next movies 🙏❤

It's the way I 💫✨️SPRINTED✨️💫 to this video 🏃🏽‍♀️💨😂🤣

Please react to the rest!!

You should care about Peeta and Haymitch and Effie. All of their arc is amazing throughout the series.

The hootering and hollering come from the Careers, they're basically bread and trained for all of their lives to join this "event" I think it was District 1 & 2 who also next to the capitol have the most luxrious goods. You know like some people are so into or even indoctrinated (to various degrees) to go to the "milliatry" to be a "full fledged adult" of their "socities" best comparision I could can up with. So yeah, basically they were pretty happy to "BE THERE" opposite to everyone else. And Foxface (girl with red hair) probably was a smart one who also looked through the whole shennanigans in another district but we sadly never got to know her, truly.

I just finished The Hunger Games 2 days ago, and now you're reacting to it. Life is so funny like that, like that 😅

Please continue and watch the rest!! The plot is so amazing
