This is one of my favorite scenes. Thank you so much for uploading it. Btw I really like the part where President Snow says "We salute your courage and your sacrifice" and Clove and Cato look at each other. It's like due to their career mindset they only thought of victory yet at that moment they look at each other and know one of them must die if the other wants to become a victor and bring honor to their district.
I loved Katniss and Peeta's outfits :D When it was their turn on the stage, I was speechless! They fire capes were even better than I imagined them looking in the book!
The parts when Katniss is very clearly astounded as the camera zooms out from her face and when she raises her head to see her face on the banners...they give me a weird religous-expirience feeling.
"Come on they'll love it." Translation: They'll love it but not as much as me. But because you're so blind to the obvious love I have to you, you wont know..
"We wish you... Happy Hanger Games!" Snow should have started snickering uncontrollably up on the podium after he said that. Then laughed and pointed at the tributes while clutching his sides. The irony is thick as a brick...
#5 - it was a-Collins approved addition to the script, cuz Donald Sutherland requested it (see his comments in the official movie companion). he wrote to Lionsgate and ASKED to play Snow. they told him it wasn't much of a role--he suggested throwing it Snow's speech and the Snow/Seneca scenes to show just how evil of a guy the president is.
It's called "The Horn of Plenty" Also known as "Panem's Anthem" beacause in the book they say they play the anthem during the ceremony and during the death's in the sky. That is the song they play in the movie.
She says that braids her hair at the back, in her ;signiture style' meaning it's one she uses a lot, not as a one off. Also when she catches fire, she feels her braiud AT THE BACK and notcies how much hair has burnt off
"A Musica alta, os incentivos, as demonstrações de admiração penetram meu sangue, e não consigo suprimir meu entusiasmo. Cinna me deu uma grande vantagem. Ninguém se esquecerá de mim. Não se esquecerão de meu visual, de meu nome. Katniss. A Garota Em Chamas."
are 1) Katniss' hair is meant to be a single braid at the back 2) white horses pulling districts 1 carrige 3) they go in smiling and blowing kisses 4) they also go in holding hands because cinna tiold then to 5) In the books I don't remember a speech from President snow
for more than 10 years film has been dominated by wizards and vampires.... finally a well executed plot that actually makes very good sense and an intricate theme that deals with the will to survive, and defiance of political authority
Ikr!! She was all like don't freakin touch me and when she did hold his hand he was probably thinking " OMFG!!! Shes holding my hand!!!!!!!!" :) *sigh* I love peeta
It's kind of interesting -- film theory states that typically, the protagonist will move from the left of the screen to the right of the screen, and vice-versa for the antagonist because of the direction we read in the Western world. When we first see Katniss in the fire in this video, because it's reversed, she's moving the way of the antagonist and she even seems more "evil".
Suzanne Collins wrote the books not so we could find entertainment in reading about children dying. She wrote as if it were a message saying, "Our world is falling apart. If we don't stop the horrible things we are doing our world could end up like this." They are just books though. None of it really ever happened.
Peeta: *Grabs Katniss' Hand* Katniss: *Pulls Hand away* Peeta: Come on, They'll Love it. Peeta: *In Mind: I just want to hold your hand cuz i love you Katniss: *In Mind: What a creep! I love this part!
GOOSEBUMPS ALL OVER ME :) ITS JUST WHAT I'VE IMAGINED . but of course in the book it says that the fire was all over their cape. right? but still its WONDERFUL!
It's the Capital's Anthem. I'm sure you can find it by searching that. It's on the soundtrack and it is also featured in The Hunger Games Adventures game on facebook hope this helps :)
The only problem I had with the fire is that it was just on their backs. I wish they had either done the capes - which wouldn't have looked bad with the outfits, or made it a bit more around them if possible. I thought give - as you said - it's SYNTHETIC fire, it's not going to look 100 percent real. The designers will have a better opportunity to make a more realistic "Catching Fire" costume because fiber optics and the like will create the look in that book.
Katniss is so beautiful. Jennifer Lawrence has the most beautiful eyes I've ever witnessed on Earth. When I look at them, I lose myself... Yes... I'm in love... :3
