Welcome to teen Girl Talk. Teen Girl Talk. I'm Suzy Kota, I'm
freaking Coda, and this week we are doing the second Hunger Games, Catching
Fire. Yes, so this one is clearly bigger budget from the start.
And I would say, like, from what I remember, keeps to the
books pretty uh. I almost said religiously, Like, but they seem to
you know, follow the books pretty closely. Yeah, Like, I mean
this one, this one, this one was clearly like we did the test,
which was the first Hunger Games, this blew up, probably way more
than we thought it would. And now the money is on display. And
for that money, we brought in Philip seymore offmen. Yeah, and you
know, just the production in general looks so much sleeker. There's more extras,
there's more locations. It's not that the first one was low budget.
It was you know, pretty involved. So this one goes on to expand
upon the universe. We get some past victors as well as some backstory.
Yeah. And I was like, Okay, well they're not kids, but
I think I said in the last episode, well they're not kids anymore.
Nope. Still crying, yeah, still crying throughout this movie. Everybody has
PTSD. Yeah, and the thing is that they are. I feel like
they definitely don't harp on the Gail Peta love triangle as much as in the
books. Like I felt like in the books it was very sort of constant,
you know, her conflictedness between the two. Yeah, because like there's
a lot of like, uh, Gail kisses Catness, and then Catiness spends
like next like three pages wondering why Gaale kiss Catness. Yeah. Dylan pointed
out that they write Catness a little bit like she doesn't know what's going on,
ever, and I said, I think more it's a product of her
hot headedness. Well, that she's constantly frustrated and losing patience. Yeah,
And I think a lot of that has to do with who the character is.
Like she mentions that she doesn't have a lot of friends, and we
can assume that's because you know, she was parentified very early in her life
and she had to take care of her sister and her mom, so like,
yeah, like usually she would have like a female friend or any friend
really to kind of explain when certain things happen, like well, this is
that boy likes you, that's why he kissed you. Was like, oh,
because as far as we know, it's really just been Gail, Like
Gail has been her main friend and yeah, and Peter meanwhile, has been
working at the bakery, being like paally despised by his parents. It's really
strange because in this one he says that he like, basically no one would
care if he came home or not, which I think is very strange because
in the books, I believe were like his family is supposed to be the
ideal. Well, I mean, in the first movie he mentions his mom
said like, well, at least we'll finally have a victor and yeah.
But I don't I don't think that was in was it in the book?
I don't. I don't believe it was. I'm going to the wiki because
in the book, I remember, I feel like Catnis was envious of his
family life because their home seemed warm and his family seemed sort of like gracious.
But I I'm not sure if that was a misconception on her part or
if they wrote Peter's family different from the movie versus the book. Okay,
so from the from the wiki. Although he grew up in the Merchant area
of District twelve, Peter's childhood was less undesirable as his family was difficult.
His father was kind, but his mother was known to beat Peta in person,
only his two brothers that they made a mistake. For example, she
hits Peter for burning the bread. Gotcha? Okay, So I guess it
probably was like Catnus's view from the outside that I'm remembering, And we also
have to think that like Catinus, Catinus envisions things more in what is that
word, utilitarian viewpoints, Like she's like, oh, he has food and
bread, like he must be doing good. Like you know, it's just
like what does he have his mother's Does he have his mother's like love and
affection? No, but he has bread. Well, I mean it's the
Methlow's hierarchy situation where yeah, Catiness is not getting the bottom of her pure
pyramid met so she can't worry about sort of pedestrian concepts like love and compassion.
Yeah. So well, actually the thing is, I like, I
know this is gonna be off topic, but I've been thinking about how open
I have been about my emotions during these movies, or during this first movie,
and there's something I need. I was on a walk earlier this week
I realized I needed to tell you a secret. Okay, Susy, not
only was I part of digitmon forums, had a secret di Jemon an internet
girlfriend still sings I wrote. And not only did I write digitmon fair in
fiction, I also wrote self insert digitmon fan fiction. Amazing. Does any
of this still exist? Can we please link it on the Facebook? No,
it was on, it was on a I think it. I don't
even think I shared him with anyone. I think it. I think I
just wrote it for me, and I think that the only extant copies are
on floppy diskslus lost. But the weird thing was, I do remember the
stories, and I just kind of wanted to like hang out with the crew.
I wasn't even like romantically involved with anybody, and I wasn't even a
digit destined, Like I didn't even have like a digitmon. They're now using
words that I don't understand. But okay, the main character is called the
digit destined, and they each get like their own digitmon. So these can
range from like little dragon things to cat things to all kinds of things.
I didn't even have one of those. I was just hanging out, so
you were basically like a digitmon hanger on. Yeah, I was basically a
groupie, but like, yeah, so, yeah, so that's that's what
I did. And I'm blushing very hard, as you you know, can
probably guess, but I was like, I need to be open with Susie.
I'm being so open with my emotions during the Hunger Games movie. Yeah,
I mean, who knew that this was going to be the sort of
catharsis that you needed to own up to the fact that you did self insert
did youmon? Fanfic? Yeah? So, I feel like no one before
in history has put together those words in that order about referring to the Hunger
Games. Yes, breaking grounds. I'm basically like Natalie Portman and Garden State,
where I'm like, I love to say and do things that have never
been done before, like saying, Hunger Games is the catharsist to you revealing
that you were a self inserted did j youmon? Fanfic? Wouldn't it be
funny if that's what she spouted off? And now like twenty years later,
I'm like, well, fuck, that has already been said. Now lu
Porman said it in Garden State, That'll just be a meme where you just
start putting things at the NLLY plate. Have Naiye Portman say them in that
moment in that movie, Oh my god, how is it not? Al
right? Well, I guess nobody has talked about Garden State in roughly two
decades, so that's probably how it hasn't happened already. She was very good
in that movie, but that movie in retrospect is very annoying. She's annoying
in that movie. Not Natalie Worman, but the character is written to be
super like. I think that is where the phrase many manic pixie dream girl
was born. Yeah, from that film, from Zach Braff's writing. I
will tell you what. That movie has made me forever scared of tripping over
the dishwasher door. Me too. I mean, it's a horrible visual.
I feel like Zach Braff should not write keatsy movies. I feel like he
should write a twenty four hereditary style slogs where everybody just kind of wishes they
were dead at the end of it. Okay, well, I think,
Frank, if you lived in the hereditary world, would you be like great?
I can definitely move on from this. Well, I mean, how
often is this happening? How often is are people going through hereditary things?
Well, that's what I'm saying, if he's writing a movie like that,
you wouldn't be like, oh, life is like super great and I'm you
know, I'm so happy that this has happened. It's the end of the
movie and I forget the dude and it's just like, yeah, this is
good. His name is zach No. In Hereditary, I think that's Nat
Woll He's just like, I don't know. I never saw herditary too scary.
I tried watching it, but I had to walk out because I got
too anxious. I'm so anxious. So the first half of it in DC,
yeah, Tailani is just like I'm here for you. Like, no,
not is not in that movie. It's Tony damn it. I got
my my like skillful female actresses mixed up. Okay, now on that embarrassing
note, let's talk about catching fire. You saw and I don't know.
I think spiraling it's the digimon admittance. You can't come back from it.
Okay, Well no, In Brooklyn nine, mind uh, I think it's
Chelsea Peretti's character is talking. I think she's talking about like the movie Bad
Boys. Yeah, she talk about the movie Bad Boys. She's like Will
Smith Martin Lawrence tall glass of Taleleone, and like I can't get that out
of my head, like the way she says a tall glass of tale Leone.
But is Talon in that movie? Or did she also make a mistake
and Bad Boys? Yeah? Yeah, she's in Bad Boys. Okay,
have you seen Bad Boys too? Because I saw Bad Boys too, I
think in Santa Barbara. Never maybe Santa Anna? How many? How many
Bad Boys are there? Two or three? Did they? But then did
they just RaSE a new one? That was the second one? Was the
new one? Really? I mean and by you I mean like twenty twenty?
Yeah, very long. No, I've never even seen Bad Boys one.
No, they've never seen the tall glass of it. No. Okay,
there's there's threes is, there's Bad Boys. There's Bad Boys two in
two and three, and then there's Bad Boys for Life. Okay, I
did not know that the two thousand and three Bad Boys existed, and I've
only seen I actually haven't seen the first one either. I've only seen the
third one apparently. Yeah, so you gotta get up on your lore anyway.
Uh, coming from a man who has seen no Bad Boys movies?
Yeah, yeah, let me just the you're like, who's the goose?
It's me. Oh god. My next step is to then go explain the
plot of Bad Boys to Tailor. She's like, I was in this movie.
I mean, do you ever wonder if actors forget that they were in
films? Oh, I've seen interviews where people will be like, people are
like, oh, I forgot I made this movie, or like like I
have not thought about this movie in decades because it came out so long ago.
What's her name? Anna Kendrick says like she was watching Twilight on a
plane then she saw herself like, all right, I was in that movie.
I mean, what's very funny is that I was watching one of those
Vanity Fair. I think it was like Vanity Fair. Uh, oh God.
What's Harry Potter's name? Daniel Radcliffe? Daniel Raycliffe is going over all
of the characters he's played, and he's like, and there was one film
that took sixteen days to shoot and it was bad and no one saw us.
So you guys are definitely not going to bring it up today. And
I'm like, I wonder what movie that was, because it wasn't the one
where he is for hands. Yeah, another great smat Weaving role. Apparently
he's pretty proud of that movie. I like him a lot. I have
been watching a lot of Miracle Workers with Bill and he it always seems game
basically, well, he's just especially to have other men carry him around.
He just put out a documentary he about his his former stuntman, uh,
Dave Holmes, and because like Dave Holmes got hurt on the set of Harry
Potter and was paralyzed from the neck down. Holy shit. Yeah, and
you know, he that all he ever wanted to be was a stunt man.
And I haven't watched yet, but looks really fascinating. And he you
know, now goes around and talks with you know, gives talks to people
and raises money for charities. And Radcliffe was quota saying, is like,
I don't want people to think that I'm friends with Dave Dave, because,
like, you know, I feel sorry for him, Like this man was
I grew up with him, like we grew up together basically, Like I'm
working on those films and he's like a very important person in my life and
I want people to know that. And they he was like Radcliffe was an
executive producer on the on the documentary. He like, I know this is
dangerous to say about any actor or public figure at this point, because tomorrow
they might turn around and do something like totally he seems like a genuinely nice
person. Yeah, and yeah, he like he also just loves taking weird
over roles because like, I got all my Harry Pottery Potter bunny, I
don't need nothing. Yeah, I got got my Harry Potter money. What
else can I do? I mean, that's the way to do it,
right, Especially, I think it's very very hard for child stars to make
that transition. Like I just read Jeanette McCurdy's book and she talks about that
challenge, and I think about it, and especially like in the twenty ten's
ish, because gossip blogs are so big, I have to imagine it was
very hard to be a young star then. Yeah, god yeah. I
also read legiond Jenna McCurdy book. For those who don't know, it's called
I'm Glad My Mom Died. Yeah, it's pretty rough. I mean trigger
warnings like crazy on that. I read that and I read that and crying,
h mart In like one day, Yeah, it's pretty pretty traumatizing you.
Okay, we are zero. Here's zero minutes into those. So we
start with Catnus once again outside of the fence. She's looking into the distance
and she then is heading back. She spots she picks up a rabbit from
a snare. She has shows up. Yeah, did you just forget Gil
a little bit? No? I thought he shows up. After she gets
the rabbit from the snare. No, she goes to like shoot a buck
or no turkeys. There are turkeys gobbling in the distance, and she goes
to shoot a turkey, but then it turns into jack Quaid and she has
a flashback to the first games, and Cale has to calm her down.
Yeah, it's okay, We're gonna get a lot of this Catiness is not
in a good place. No one who is a victor during the games is
Yeah. So she gets back and her mom is is more active now and
she's just like, oh, dear, how was your walk? And Ken
is the first is like, oh I wasn't at for a walk? I
was, And then PRIs like we have his errors and President Snow has come
to visit. Oh and also when they were walking back through, Gail At
kissed Catness again in like an alley privately that I needed to emphasize this because
President Snow is just really dropping truth bombs on catness and he's like, tells
her not, let's not lie to one another. And President Snows like,
there is you know, unrest in the various districts. You need to help
quell it by selling your love story, which I know is fake, and
like he says like this like bomber of a line where he's like, how
badly did it hurt that boy when he realized the depth of your indifference And
she's like, I'm not in different and he yells at her to not lie.
He Donald Sutherland is electrifyingly menacing in this scene. Truly, I'm bummed.
I think this is the only face to face they get throughout the entire
movie series. You remember, what is he dying of? I don't know,
I'm assuming well I can look it up, but it's like I got
the blood handkerchief. He is the bloody champagne. Yeah, And he's just
like, oh, did did your did Peter make these cookies? And the
cookies do look very good and he's like, oh, it's like eating the
cookies right, yeah, because I thought it was very weird that they just
had President Snow like munching a little bit during this whole monologue. I guess
it. I think it was supposed to make it more menacing since he was
so casual, but it just made it look like a pop up eating like
an afternoon snack. It was like really distracted because I missed the line about
the cookies. So then I just see him going on. I was like,
what is that? What is eating things off with his best clutcher,
Yeah, just found some random nuts. She's like, oh, don't wonder
do well, there's a deep backstory with presidents. No, well yeah,
that's the newest movie, right, Yeah, but like there's a lot more.
Oh my god, this is so much. Okay, I'm just gonna
google what is he dying from. So basically he's just like maybe peopill believe
quell the unrest or I will kill you your family and like byla bye,
I saw you kissing and Gail. So this weird little like floating monitor where
he can basically, uh, pull out the receipts on Cateness at any given
point. Yeah, And so basically it's like evil uh what we call evil
Santa saw Gail and Catinus kissing. It does not hold up under the I
saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus. I totally saw you trying to go there.
I thought it was a valiant effort. I don't know how you would have
pointed it, because that would only work if Catinus is kissing presidents now with
his bloody cookie mouth. Oh okay, so unknown to most people, prisoners
Snowy poisoned others but drank the same drink as them to cover up his tracks,
resulting perpetual blood sores in his mouth. Hee was it worth it?
I he's president snow People know he's going to poison people like it Like it's
like like victim, No, I'm blaming you, drink a drinking president STOs
prepared to die. No, what I'm saying is, why did he have
to drink the poison too? This is just like an axe murderer being like,
well, I'm gonna chop myself. I was like, I know you're
not, like, like I know what this is about. You're gonna kill
me? That's it? Anyway, Maybe he's built up a resistance, who
knows. I do like that. The movie does not kind of shine a
light on that. Yeah, we just see the bloody champagne and I was
like, oh, is he dying? Yeah, presents don't have to chug
everything because I'm not getting a second drink out of this. But yeah,
so, uh Effie shows up. She is uh dressed to kill. I
texted Susie that I'm like starting like to feel for Effie now. I mean
I was always se Mefie. Effie reminds me of a character from Elvis Huxley's
Brave New World, the people who are just taking soma constantly and are just
don't think about anything else. But like, okay, so I'm just gonna
quickly say this about Effie before we cover the rest of the movie, because
Effie probably hasn't me Like, nobody from District twelve has won in forty years
since HEYMTG, so Efie has not had to care about any of these people,
Like she was probably like, well, they'll do their best, but
they're gonna die. So she finally has victors of her own. You know,
I'm sure she saw being assigned to District twelve. I was like,
really, I couldn't be one of the better districts. Yeah punishment. Yeah,
So now she has two young people to care about and I'm sure she's
like, I'm gonna be able, like we're gonna be together forever, Like
it's gonna be like, you know, you're gonna die of old a this
is awesome. So then like when the it'd be weird that she's emphasizing you're
going to die of old age and that's awesome. Well, i mean,
like as opposed to any of it's gonna be sick. I'm gonna attend your
funerals forever. But you know, like of all the other ways these people
died, that's a pretty good one. I mean, honestly, I'm sure
Mags was like, oh I got in the bag. Death by natural causes,
Hell yeah, but Mags, Mags Mas made me weep so hard.
I couldn't remember why Mags was nonverbal. I think just trauma. Yeah,
I'm sure there's another terrible reason. But I've looked at so many terrible things
so far at these movies. I have a limit. Well, if it's
not if it's not utmost necessary to the plot, I don't want to look
at the backstories about these characters. I'm surprised of how much of this I
retained because I watched these movies once a million years ago. But even the
people who who serve the food at the Capitol, they have been they've had
their sight, hearing, and speech taken from them, right, just their
tongues, just their tongues. Why are their eyes covered so they can't look
at people? Oh god? Yeah, it's like those you know, celebrities
who are like whose assistants are told don't look them in the eye. Oh
I heard Jimmy Fallon is one of those that does not surprise me. Yeah.
I was watching a Patrick CC YouTube video and they were like, apparently
he's a mania. Yeah, I just watched a YouTube video. So this
is they're beginning their victory tour, which is insane to me because it's just
like, Hi, we killed your people, what's up? Yeah, it's
so, I mean, obviously the victory tour was to serve the furpace of
like really sort of rubbing in the Hunger Games, correct, Yeah, to
showcase these are the these are your murderers, and these are the people who
are going to be showered with wealth since then, I mean, which makes
uh Plutark's plan even less sort of reliable because he's not proposing anything new.
But President Snow is like, oh, he's an innovator. I mean,
yeah, President Snow is not a good president. President Snows like you beautiful
genius and plut Dark's like, I'm just kind of feeding your own plan back
at you. But sure I do love phil Seymour Hoffman in a villain role,
like he's just wonderfully evil him and This and Punch Drunk Love and Mission
Impossible, Free Punch Drug Glove being my favorite Am Sandler movie. I saw
U Pun Shrugg Club in two thousand and two and I don't remember any of
it. It's just like Adam Sandler is a very lonely man. He meets
this wonderful woman and they start falling in love, but he's like he's being
black Man by Philip Seymore Hoffman who runs a sex phone thing out of the
back of his carpet store. Oh my god. And then there comes a
moment where he like he sends Adam Sandler has an outstanding bill, he sends
some dudes after him. Anna Stanel beats him up then flies to Florida to
deal with him, and it's one of my favorite Adam Sandler before He's like,
I have fulled with so much love of it has made me so powerful,
so I would just say, that's that, carpet man, and we
can be done with this, and Philip Seymore is a like, that's that,
and Ali Samer starts leaving and phil Semore Niel's out there like, now
get the fuck out of here, pervert, and a turns goes what did
I say to you? And goes like that's that, just waves them off
and goes back in back of this carpet store. I know that sounds really
dumb, but it's a really affecting scene. Well no, I mean,
like the premise sounds ridiculous, and I just remember I don't remember any of
that. I just remember feeling like mildly sad when I got out of the
film. Yeah, it is a very mildly sad movie, but I felt
so guess what first stuff on the tour is District eleven their neighboring district,
and oh, joy of joys, it's the home of the former home of
Ruins and Thresh. And they don't also arrive to basically a military zone.
I'm assuming they've been under martial law since since the riot we saw in the
first one. And we see uh graffiti of the mocking Jay and praises the
odds are never in our favor. Yeah, Peta is Peta and Catenus are
supposed to read from cards. Pet It decides to speak because he knows Catenus
can't do this because she's far too upset for obvious reasons. And he says
that he drops his cards and fie guests. He dropped his cards. Yeah,
and he says that, like you know, he talks about their fault.
He speaks lovingly of their fallen of their fallen tributes, and then says
he wants to they will donate a month of their winnings every year to the
families of Thresh and room for the rest of their lives. And the winnings
must be substantial. Oh and sorry. Before this, they also had like
a fun little scene where they like were trying to pretend to be in love
and it was not working. I believe they were talking to Caesar Flickerman once
again played by the wonderful Stanley Tucci, and Peter's is like, okay,
that's oversee you later. I you don't love me, bye, And then
Catness speaks about rue and then an older man. And my thought about this
is that he volunteered for this because he does the mocking Jay three note call
and then holds up the their their salute, like the basically the rebellion salute.
Immediately the peacekeepers go into the crowd, drag him up the stairs and
as the door's clothing and this is a haunting shot. We hear the gunshot
as he's killed in front of everyone. Yeah, we see him later.
Yeah, they she sees the peacekeepers carrying him off after. It's horrible and
uh, Catness is beside to herself when it happens. Yeah, so she's
like they move on to the next place. Hamich like talks them like you're
gonna read the cards, You're gonna put on bright, happy faces. We
just like she like, Peter's like, we just got through this tour,
and Hamish is like, you're on this train ride forever every year. You
two are gonna be out here your mentors. Now you're gonna you know,
train and help people like I do basically, and I do like they do.
Cut to him after Peter says they're gonna donate their winnings and he's just
like, holy shit. And somebody like Senna, beautiful, beautiful. Senna
is like can he do that? And Hama's like no, but he just
did. So you know, we get a montage of people trying to get
them to talk and do all these things, and like we're singing more Unrest
and more Peacekeepers. Catus is having nightmares and Peter's trying to be there for
her and this all like we know. There's a haunting shot of Jennifer Lauren
with a plastered on smile saying Panan now, Pana then Panan forever, and
she's getting heckled like crazy. Yeah. It does remind me of when Captain
America shows up in the First Avenger and he talks to actual soldiers and they're
like, bring out the tarns and girls. One of my favorite parts of
The First Spider Man is when Hannibal Varess is Jim Teacher as a gym teacher
says, I don't know, here's a video this guy's like a war criminal
now or something. My other favorite bit about that that is like he's like,
no, I throw it over to your Jim Teacher because they're introducing like
the Presidential Fitness Exam and like Hannah Aress is standing on the wrong side,
so he did not watch this video beforehand or he did it didn't care which
side he was on. It's a pretty good gag, I think. Yeah,
I'm also remembering the first Sammer Inspire Man, where like everybody's talking about
it and that one dude's like he stinks and I don't like him, Jim
Norton. So uh so. Yeah. So they get to the Capitol,
it's time for the party. This is I think my favorite Fie line through
the entire four the entire Paul trilogy of movies, where she's like, chins
up, smiles on, I'm talking to you catnus yeah, and she like
does like such an she does an on point point where she's just like,
I know what you're doing. You're probably frowning. So they get to the
party and it is a you know, it's a big shindig, and I
think that's definitely how people describe it, a big shindig. I mean,
you know, it's a pretty it's it's a Hollywood party. There's more food
than anybody can handle, and like all these other things, and it said
so cryptic all these other things. I know that's a describe that I'm assuming
in the rooms there's debauchery going on but like outside, it's there's food and
there's dancing, like like a prom. And at a certain point, Pete's
like, oh, I couldn't eat another eat another bite, And somebody's like,
oh, have this enhance him a little glass of pink liquid and he's
like what's this and like so you can eat more like it? Yeah,
And like Peter makes the point, there's people starving in the districts and they're
vomiting up food so they can eat more, which is a horrifying revelation.
Do you think in this world that Rome existed? I mean, this is
supposed to be America after a nuclear war, so yes, but I'm guessing
so in the Fallout New Vegas game. In the Fallout games, there's one
like there's a legion of people. They're very they're basically the bad well they
are the bad guys. They're awful, sire, they're like whatever. You
get to the first of them, you're like, I'm not going to explain.
I'm going to ignore you. No, I like my nerd man explaining
kicked in. I was like, no, I have to explain now.
So you get to this one town and they're crucifying people and they've killed everybody
else. Yeah, they there is no subtlety in how bad Kaisar's legion is.
And that's the thing. They're modeling themselves on Rome and they but they
just read the name, so instead of saying Caesar the way it's supposed to
be, they call him Kaisar. Yeah, and you know that's how I
feel. Yeah, that's how I feel about this, where it's just like
the lessons of Rome were probably destroyed long ago. So unless this is just
kind of like only America got affected by this and the rest of the world's
fine, and they're just like Americans just whatever, who was saying this?
The rest of the world. Yeah, like you're the like, English is
just like what the hell is happening with it? Should we being like no,
just let them be. They're doing fine. They have that train.
What is the likelihood that there was a nuclear event and only one country is
affected? Very very low. Yes, so it was self contained, you
know, the way nuclear events tend to be. So, but here's my
thing. How many tributes and people who go to those parties accidentally drink the
pink liquid before they know what's up with it. Yeah, it seems strange
that that man was already holding a glass of it. It's just like,
oh, this looks tasty. I'm guessing it's great food flavor because it's pink.
Oh yeah, unless that was a that was also law. The flavoring
by color of candy technology was lost to the nuclear flames. I don't know.
They have like so many what you might call it, different innovations.
I would have to assume that doing candy taste by color still exists. Yeah,
they said so much clothing on fire in these movies. Yeah, I
mean they have so many you know, it's like we were saying last week,
they have so much technology, why can't we just be better? Well,
I mean we started what is his name, Beetle Bee, Beetle Bailey.
Sure, I don't know who you're talking about? Beat oh beat,
Yes, he invented the punch cool stuff, and you're talking about how do
you not know what I'm talking about? Beatty yells above. Maybe that's what
his friends call him, Scottery Joe, you know Scotty Joe. This is
like when I still the Vietnam song, when I mean creating clear are Unfortunate
Son? Yeah? Or you know that song by Eric clafton Tears in Heaven,
which was almost my promt slaw, just stop it. Are you joking?
Frank? That's horrible. Voted for that because, like somebody mentioned it
when they get us all together to vote on what our prom song was going
to be on our theme, I suggested Hungry like the Wolf, and nobody
was there for Amazing. But then like somebody's like, oh, what about
that Eric Clapton song Tears in Heaven? I quick it, raise my hands.
I think you mean wonderful tonight. Yeah, Tears in Heaven is not
by Eric Clafton, no matter how many times I say it is by Thank
you Frank I. Bill pointed out to me that I was wrong. Wait
am I mixing up? Oh? I'm totally wrong. Not. I wasn't
the use Years in Heaven. I was thinking of the Cats in the Cradle.
Oh I hate that song Cats in the Cradle, which is which is
by Harry Sheafin. Yeah, that that movie, that song? Excuse me?
Is there isn't like whatever. Dad was just like, hey, you
want to go collect one from the side of the road, Like, yes,
father, I do, let's go collect what you were afraid of getting
cats cradled? Yeah? I was. I was like that song is all
about like make sure you hang up your dad. I'm like, okay,
I'll go, I'll go pick up one with my dad. Oh my god,
do you think that I mean? I guess he sort of meant it
as like a preventative song, right, yeah, on both ends. Yeah,
I don't know when we will be together. I forgot you're already on
the precipice due to hungry games. I don't mean the the pink, the
pink juice e folks vomiting cats, the cradle books tears. I think you
have to be an absolute monster to not be semi moved by Cat's Cradle.
Yeah, I'm saying it with my full chest. Yeah, that was that
song in over twenty years. When it comes on, I mute the TV.
Is coming off your television once in a while, okay. Anyway,
President snow like it's singing Cat's Cradle must have children. He does his granddaughter's
daughter exactly, So like Cat's Cradle, she's just his Granddather's just like,
yeah, what's up? Girl on fire hair? Hairdoo in your face,
old man. When she turns to her grandpa and says, I hope somebody
loves me that much some day and he's like, of course. He's like,
oh god, I hope you don't get put into the Hunger Games,
which you totally were because of Julian More in the last movie. So uh,
they he locks eyes of Catinus and he shakes his head. No,
he does not believe her, and that means she's gonna die. So it'd
be funnier though, if he locked eyes with her and then winked like hey
girl, and he's just like no, He's like, he goes to give
his speeches, like I'm sorry, this charade is over, and he just
undoes his like suit and he's wearing a Santa suit. He's like, I'm
Father Christmas and you've all been naughty. That's why I made the Hunger Games.
That's so much creepier. I don't know why that's so haunting. Anyway,
Catness returns home. They he and we get like to help quell people
and distract them. Peter basically suggests we get married. And the way you
worded that makes it sound like you and Peter are getting married. If only
Frank's like gone in the chapel and we're gone, I get mad. Peter
would treat me right. I think he'd be a good husband. Yeah.
So you know, he says the hamage like we're on you said, we're
on this ride forever. It's gonna happen eventually or no, I think Catinus
says that, yeah, I think, And then Peter's like, let's do
it and walks away. And so Plutarch, who dances with Catenus at at
the party, and he says a bunch of cryptic ship yeah uh, he
leaves and knowing Catness is impatience with games like that, I'm sprishing it,
like put him in a headlock and be like, speak plainly to me,
what does any of these riddles mean? She's like, I know one thing.
I know a few things. I know how to hunt, I know
how to be a parentified child. That's about it. So I'm not Catnus
is sick of your whispery games, old man, basically, And Plutarch's plan
is like to basically like suppose not suppose I have like, like, what
is the dress gonna look like? Beating executions on TV? What kind of
cake they're gonna have? Jack? Thank you? What kind of cake are
they gonna have? Whippings on TV? We're gonna crack down on them harder
than we ever have and show that these are not like uh, they are
not of the people, They're like us. And I do love the line.
He's like, they might end up hating her, So they may end
up hating her so much they'll kill her for you. Yeah. So this
means that the black market at District twelve is burned to the ground with flamethrowers
by the Peacekeepers, a new I'm just gonna call him the big the Big
bad Peacekeeper. The BBP is like putting everyone at a curfew, people getting
beaten in the streets. Gail tries to protect somebody from getting beaten and he
is hauled to the center square and tied to a whipping post and whipped bloody.
And let me just say this head Peacekeeper definitely looks like someone who would
be a current elected official that has terrible policy. Yeah, and Catinus tries
to stop him. He whips her in the face. Haymt shows up and
he's like, you do not want to kill her, not before the wedding,
and he's like, I'm you're organistic, explain away a cut on her
face and they all they haul Gail back to Catanas's house. Uh she uh.
Kenness's mom goes to work and we see her in her ailment, like
you know, she used to be like a healer. She tells them to
get snow so we can put it on his wounds. And she means,
president snow boom bom bomb just regular snow, a much more useful snow.
There, I said it, And they're packing snow on the gals. But
like this is horrifying, Like this is it's really really terrible. People living
in a house should not be using snow for like medical treatments. You know.
Here's the other part. The reason that Gale got beaten so terribly is
because he was protecting an elderly woman. And when that happened, I thought
about how much you eat it, and I was like, this is the
man that Frankie. Okay, I'm I forgot about this part. I forget
why he was being which as I'm saying, that doesn't make it better,
because I was like, I still remember him being beaten. Still don't like
him, and I okay, I I am. I was too quick and
my Gail hate gotta wait till the third movie. Dude, Yeah, okay,
first two movies, Gail's fine. Gail hasn't been radicalized yet. The
thing is with Gail is he's constantly like, like, cant just explain to
when what's going on. He's constantly being like do you love me? Like?
Do you love me? And I'm just like Gail, she has other
things to do. You know. The other part is she was in a
death game and Gail is wanting to talk about feelings all over the place,
and she's like, I really can't right now. And he does not seem
to be able to take that as an answer. You remember that zombie movie
you wrote way back when. Yeah, Like, he's my character, the
one who just constantly whines while zombies are biting everyone, going, I just
want to talk about my feelings. Yeah, like and like meanwhile, like
if Gail, if I it's just like when Gail is dealing with Catenis,
I don't like Gail when Gail Gail is any other time I like Gail.
When Gail's dealing with Catenis, I'm just like Gail, come on this bigger
fish to fry. So you're saying that Gail is a toxic boyfriend, Yes,
he might be. He might be useful in other places, but he's
a toxic boyfriend. So like me, like Gail needs to be a David
from Leo and Stitch who like the Big Sister and Leland Stitch was like,
look, Dave, I can't be in a relationship right now. I gotta
take care of my sister. She has this weird new dog that's doing all
these things. And Dave's just like whatever, I'm good. I'm gonna continue
to support you because that's what I do, because I'm a good person named
Dave, like best Disney Prince for you know, far Gone Anyway, I've
never seen Leland Stitch. I don't have anything to add to this conversation.
I mostly just remember people on Tumblr just be like, David's the best,
ah, you know. I was like, I agree, It's just like
when everyone was hot for the Oncelor. No, the Oncelor got real weird.
There was an evil twin in the once Laer and they asked ed Helms
about it, and I was like, guys, we cannot bring the normies
into this. Do not ask ed Helmer about our weird Onnsler fan fictionhit was
ed Helm's distress. Yes he looks very sad. Oh no, it's like
I was in a children's film. Yeah, I did see somebody's Google search
for the one tiger from Zootopia. Would treat me right, Oh my god,
that's just a big beefy tiger in a polo shirt. Oh god.
Oh and somebody you're spinning, y'all need Jesus not inaccurate. So now it's
time for the reaping. And it's because it's the seventy fifth Hunger Games.
It's what's called a quarter quell. There have been two other quarterclalls before this.
Obviously. Let me continue to explain basically, like, yeah, the
first quarter I looked these up because I was interested about them. The first
quarter quell involved people voting on who would go into the arena, which,
boy, oh boy, would I not want to be a part of that
now because I feel like I'd be voted. But how do you live with
like after that, you know, in that community, which is obviously what
they were going for. The next one, which was the one Hamage one,
was they brought in two boys and two girls from each district, so
there was forty eight people instead of twenty four. Okay, and yeah,
so and like Hamige, my god, like I think he mostly hid during
that, and then like he had a plan where somebody threw an axe at
him, he ducked and hit the force field and went back into the person.
Gotcha. So this year, the contestant pool, the tribute pool will
be will be taken up by excuse me, they'll be taken up by already
won tribute, So by victors. Yeah, Catnus immediately. Oh and just
the queen interjection. There's a deleted scene with They're like, you see pou
Tark in this vault, and there's apparently eighty different little drawers, and each
one of them has a quarter quel idea in it, and that's like what
the founders put down. So this was supposed to last for two thousand years.
He like, you see Plutarch take out the one for the third third
quarter quill and just burn it because he's doing his own thing. Did he
just lie to them and tell them that's what was on the little piece of
paper. I'm assuming he just told Snow like this is what we're doing,
and like who cares about this one? I'm gonna burn it, you know,
And so Snow certainly hates rules. Yeah, So Catnus goes running out
she spends like a few hours just thinking and disassociating, assuming and just having
a horrible time. She then says, Peter goes back and talks to Hamage,
and Hamage is like, oh, you suddenly realize what's going on,
and she's just like, He's like, can I tell you that? Almost
immediately Peter was in here for forty five minutes begging me to save your life,
you know. And he then he says what I'm always thinking. Jimag
says, you could live one hundred lifetimes and not deserve that boy, which
is kind of mean spirited. Uh, Madness has been through a lot.
Yes, yes she has. I thought to say that Peta has also not
been through a lot. At least Cattiness has a mom and sister. Oh
my god, Peter got that news by himself. No I know. But
I'm saying, like, you're like, yeah, Catus might have to go
into the death arena again, but she's leaving more loved ones behind that should
like really temper the blow. I'm not I'm not trying to compare the situations.
I'm just saying I'm saying they're in almost equal situations, Like Thankslake,
But I'm just saying team Peta okay, And this is an accommodation of Peter
versus Catness, not Peter versus Gale. I mean like he's been trying his
best and I feel fearful before. Yeah, poor boy. Anyway, Catness,
like you know, Hamia is like, if Peter gets the Pete gets
the nomination, I will volunteer. And he's like, and I will do
my best and not talk about Ramphart in the arena, even though it's all
I want to talk about. Yeah. So now comes to reaping and we
see uh Efie comes by and she's just like, this is so much worse
and this is also my favorite fie. Look, she's wearing a dress that
just looks like it's made up with monarch butterflies. Yes, and she says,
ladies first, Oh well, it gets catninus everyday. Who would have
known? And I mean they went through the trouble of having a bowl empty
with every name except for Catness, all right. I just think, like
how much trouble that would have been, Like I got to bring a bowl
out here but one name in it. I know. It really is just
like a huge fuck you to Catinas. And then she pulls Peter. She
pulls Hamtch's name and like even her realizes how bad this is. She goes,
hey, Mitch ever and like Peter music, I volunteer a tribute,
and it's like, damn it, exactly what we didn't want to happen.
They're not allowed to say goodbye this time because people make the sign of the
rebellion again. I rewatched this the first people who like the minute, you
know, like Fie says like, these are your tributes for the seventy five
Hunger Games. Prim and Missus Eberdeen their arms go straight up. Yeah,
you know, and like prim has told Catinus before this, like we're behind
you. You don't have to worry about us. We are here for the
rebellion basically, so they're back on the train. Effie is upset and she's
like, we're going to get something that makes it look like a team.
I'm gonna find something for Hamich and Peta, but like I have my gold
hair Catnus, you have your gold mocking Jpin and yeah uh, And she
is starting to feel the effects of like how unfair this all is. Yeah,
and Hamish just like this is a brand new Hunger Games. These people
are trained killers they've won before, and he's like. There's these two called
the Morphlings who are basically like you know, heroin addicts. They hid for
their hunger games the entire time, their brother and sister. There's Finnic and
Max. Max is this older woman who's been taking care of Finnick unless his
mentor. She's basically a mom to him. She volunteers so that his girlfriend
doesn't have to go in because originally his girlfriend is called Yeah and you know,
uh. Kenna says like if he tries to protect her, that will
make him weak and vulnerable, and Heymt's just says, I hope if she
goes, she goes quickly. She's actually a nice lady. And then there's
Jenna Mason. Oh, Johanna Mason, who is genlemen Malone plays Johanna Mason.
This is not gonna get confusing for me at all, so she is
deadly for an acts. There's the Career Tributes, one of them who has
filed her teeth into fangs and then he dies almost immediately. We like,
never see that actress again. I think no, I think she's there towards
the end. She's running around at the end trying to hunt them down.
Okay, I know, like another one of the career tributes dies quickly.
It's like there's just this one beefy dude that's there, and then there's the
other the two blondes. Yeah, and then there's Baldi. Yeah, there's
Baldi and Shark Teeth. Yeah, I'm sure they have names, but who
cares like they're not they don't have lines. And then there's Beady and Virus.
Who cares they don't have line. They're openly killing people. It's not
like everybody else's like this is bullshit. So they get to the they get
to the capital again, it is time for the tribute parade. So it's
like, you're not gonna wave, You're just gonna stare forward the entire time.
These people are beneath you because they are. I'm like, hell yeah,
let me yeah, And then he gives her a little clicker. Yeah,
she's like like, when you feel ready to click this once again,
they'll lit on fire. They're clothing as flames. They're not lit on fire,
Frank, I know what I saw. So they are right through,
like Jennifer Lawrence and Don Sullen and presions just glaring at each other. They
would be so funny if he blew her kiss and he's like ho ho ho.
Yeah, like, oh, I'm just thinking about On the ms b
K episode for Starship Mutiny, the like commander of the ship looked like Santa,
and they'd be straight up like Santa. He'd be like open file and
then Mike be like on blitz it. Yeah. So they hop on the
elevator. Oh, and the whole thing now is making allies to protect themselves.
They hop on the elevator. Johanna Mason puffs and and she's just like,
oh, I wish I could kill my designer and like, so I'm
always trees because of lumber uh, And she is how does it feel now
that everybody wants to sleep with you? And Ken is like I don't know.
She's like, I wasn't talking about you and claimses a pet gives him
the eyes as she asked him to unzip her outfit she dresses, she you
know, gets naked. And this was apparently shot in a hotel like a
hotel the actors were staying in Oh my God, but they did not close
the hotel. So at the end of this, Jennam alone gets off the
elevator, bluck ass naked and walks right into some staff and she thought this
was unbelievably funny. Yeah, So are you sure she wasn't wearing some sort
of modesty stuff. I'm I'm guessing she was, But like, even with
that momsey stuff, there's a lot on display. Yeah. Oh, And
also Finnick has shown up and talked to had a very footy conversation with Catness
and he's like, I've been stealing is basically a necklace? Yeah, I
mean I would not cover that up if I was the designer. Oh that
poor boy. I'm just saying the actor is very hot. I feel so
bad for Phinick because Phinnick has basically been the Capital's secret. He has been
prostituted by the Capital too many people ever since he was a kid, and
it's fucking disgusting. Yeah, and he has started training in secrets, like
his lovers don't pay him in money anymore. He's like, I have more
money than I can know what to do with, so now my lovers just
give me secrets. So he is just like flirting with cat and Hiss and
you know, and we see everybody training. Betty and Virus are trying to
learn how to start a fire. Beatie won his games by electrocuting everybody at
his Hunger games, and I don't know how Wirus won, but yeah,
so we see ever Ray training, Mags and Catanists started developing a bond,
and when they get back to the suite, Hamis is like, who do
you want as allies? It kind of says Mags and then Beattie and Virus
and they're like, really these people and they She's like, find the nobody
and they like, we'll keep looking. Yeah, so they give Effie gives
Hamich a bracelet and pet a necklace to match their goal theme and at then
we have the Career The Tribune interviews with Caesar. I'm always happy to see
Stanley Tucci. And it is not the way it was before where it's like,
oh, it's fun. It's like nobody's talking about unfair this is and
how sad they are to die. Johanna Mason just starts screaming curses. She's
like, if y'all, Beatie is like staying cryptic chick too, and Kendas
like I don't understand. And Senna has dressed her in the beautiful wedding dress
for this movie. If I saw Bride come down the the download procession,
I was like, that's gaudie. It's a lot. I thought it was
supposed to be goofy on purpose, honestly. Yeah. And Effie comes in
and sees her and she goes she's yeah, with a sob in her voice,
is you would have been such a beautiful bride. And she is talking
about like, oh, everybody deserves to see my wedding dress. I'm probably
gonna die in the arena. And he says like, oh, so,
do you have the flames tonight? She's like, you want to see and
she spins the dress burns away, leaving at a much more skin tight dress,
and then she opens her arms and a pair of wings extend with her
arms, like the mocking jay. Yeah, and that sess like that's a
that's a mocking jay. And I was like, oh shit, it seems
crazy that Caesar has not had any publicity training. It's like, oh,
it's the sign of the Rebellion. That's that's pretty cool. That's like cut
the cameras. It's beautiful the cameras well. I mean, he's not even
ready for what Peter's bringing. Peter brings, but he yeah, so yeah,
Peter shows up and he's ivery was like, oh are you sad?
He's like, oh yeah, I'm not going to get married. We actually
got married secretly, you know we don't you all think get see the wedding.
But uh, that's not why I'm saying. It's like, oh why
He's like, I'm upset about the baby. And you start hearing people scream
like like in the games, and just like you know, cancel them.
And when the capital goes wild, that's how you know stuff is really gone
sideways. Yeah, this is where Caesar is completely lost, and like Peter's
just like joints it away and he joins the other tributes. They all hold
hands and they raise their arms into the air. Prison Snow is not happy
about this. I mean, would you imagine he would be like that was
horrible. And then he breaks the candy cane in his hand. He's like
these are really sharp. Ow ows just my mouth that's bleeding my hand,
And then he takes a sip of bloody Cucko. That's my favorite. That's
my favorite Castlevania song. There's a song called Bloody Tears and it's like what
places when you play Dracone Sylvania, It's yeah, what is a mad a
miserable pile of secrets? Have that the Okay, I need to send you
the like what chocolate? Richard Belmont se before they fight each other. It's
the dumbest dialogue, but it's so funny. So you sounded like Walter White
when you said that's so funny. We're going to get into the games,
right if we take a quick trick to the big sale. So Sinna,
she's wearing her like she's wearing a wet suit. He's like, it's not
thermal in anyway. So I'm gonna get either desert or tropical and they uh,
you know, He's like, gonna find water, do what you gotta
do, and he fixes her, mocking Jpen and then she hops on the
elevator and she's like, why am I not going up? And then we
see the peacekeepers come in and they kill Senna in front of her. It's
terrible and not even like quickly with a gun. They beat him to death
with uh with like batons. Yeah, and you know, so now she
has that to deal with before going to the games. And yeah, once
again Jennifer Lawrence giving an amazing thing of just screaming her heart out seeing like
you know, Senna get murdered, and they are like, so the arena
is. There's the cornucopia is on an island. There's a bunch of rocky
like lanes leading up to it, and it leads up to it. From
those, there's a beach, and then from the beach there's jungle all round.
It's a big circle like usual. You know, we'll explain what happens
in those in that circle when we get to it. Uh So, thing
hits Catanu jumps into the water. She starts winning for the on a kopia,
like the different strategy this time. She gets her bow. She sees
Finnick grabbing his trident because that's his weapon kind of thing, and he she
points her air at him. He's like, uh ah, we're on the
same side. And he's flashing Hamig's gold bracelet. She's like, how did
you get that? Yeah, He's like, how do you think? Like,
yeah, I'm murdered Davich. They start fighting. She needs to find
Peta. Peta is fighting a guy in the water. He Peter kills the
guy. We're seeing tributes dying left and right. Then people are just flating
into the woods. So they head into the woods and Finnick is carrying mags
on his back and they hear eight cannon blasts. Yeah, and uh,
Peter has a machete which she's eating to chop through the jungle. He ends
up hitting the force field and it shocks him and like shocks his heart.
We cut to bluetarping, like get a cannon ready, h Foinnix starts performing
CPR on him, and you know, he brings them back to life.
And they are looking for fresh water. They don't find it before the first
night, but then they get a parachute and it gives them a spindle or
a spindle you you knock into a tree and it will help, Like the
water comes out of the tree. Okay, So that's how they're able to
drink from now on. And with that, at a certain point during the
next night, they a fog starts rolling in. Catanus puts her hands into
the fog and it starts burning her and we see these big white postules appearing
on her hand and they flee from it, but like it's catching up to
them and they're being burned. Pete gets very badly burned and Kennis can't carry
him, and she's yelling for Finnick to help her, but Phinnick is still
carrying Mags and this is the room moment for me that I'm gonna have trouble
getting through. Mags taps Finnick and points to Peta and then points at herself,
and then she turns and walks into the fog, and Finnick watches his
mom basically die and yeah, is heartbreaking. But Phinnick says Peta, and
they fall into some water and that washes away the pustules. But now they
are surrounded by evil looking baboons. All babboons kind of look evil but bigger
than find me a cute but okay, baby baby baboon's non included baby bed
boons. Find me an find me a non evil looking baboon, I'll find
you. Yeah, baby bad boons are invalid because everything that's the baby is
cute, you know. True? Uh, thank God for the evil bad
boons to break the tension of the got bags. Yeah, God, Heaven
movies. So they run back to the beach and like the bad boons can't
come onto the beach and then Johanna with Beati and Virus comes out of the
thing and they are covered in blood, and like Johann's just like, oh
yeah, that was fun Blood Rain, like like that movie and that video
game Blood Rain. She's like, oh, this sucks. You know,
it started choking us, and like there's some disagreement between Johanna and Catteness.
She's like, I got these two for you. Oh, because Yrus keeps
saying TikTok TikTok TikTok, and Johanna has had just a bad enough and basically
starts a scuffle and then Cateness is like, what are you doing? And
Johanna's like, I save them for you. And then Cateness puts together that
the island is a clock and that's why Virus is saying that. Yeah,
they also eat Finna catches them raw fish that they eat. Apparently Jennifer Lawrence
did not care for the raw fish, but everybody else did, like it's
just sushi soshi, need to be specific, but yeah, so yeah,
so they figure out the clock and Beattie is interested. There's this one where
Lightning constantly comes down and he plans to basically they're gonna find a way to
drive everybody to the each and then electrocute them from the tree. Not everybody,
the careers, but yeah, the crews. He's like, Okay,
it's time to just give in and electrocute us all MBD. Yeah, I
mean you know how you do? God these movies they go into but then
like he's like, keep me alive for the next twelve hours, and they
go into another section and this one has jabber jays in them. Jabberjas are
another kind of moctation where they basically can mimic any sound they hear. And
what the sounds they're mimicking is Ani screaming, Finnix's girlfriend and prim screaming and
Catness follows it into the woods, and then she basically becomes paralyzed for just
having to listen to the sounds, and Peta is like knocking against like there's
visible barriers in between each section of the clock, and like he can do
nothing but just watch her. And I didn't realize this as a kid,
but she had to listen to that for an hour of the people she loved,
screaming and pain and suffering that would drive anyone insane. And like she
tells Finnick, it's not real, it's not real, And he said well,
where do you think they got those sounds? Yeah, and but like
I think they just they're playing sounds from like when like the scream. I
think they play friends, is what she screams when Catess, like when she's
when she's wailing for Catinus when catin is volunteers. Yeah, what do you
wanna call it? So, yeah, canness is shaken and Johannah like,
you know something like it didn't affect you, and John's like there's nobody left
that I love mm hm. And I was reading her wiki page where apparently
like her family was killed by the capital for some reason. I'm assuming she
you know, acted out a sort and they wanted to punish her. M
hm. So the plan is set. They're going to They're tying the wire
around the tree. Kenna is trying convince Peter to come with her, but
they he refuses. She's like, what's gonna happen When we killed the capitals,
the well killed the careers, We're all going to turn on each other.
Mm hmm. They're also wireless gets killed by one of the careers,
like wrus not wireless. Okay, yeah, that that's why Trump is that
wire wireless WiFi and they watch her get taken away by one of the hovercraft
once again. Why can't we just feed people? We have hovercrafts. Yeah,
basically a big clall comes down, picks them up and flies them away.
I didn't understand when you sent me that picture of the Calal machine,
and now I do. Oh sorry, I did think of something else that
we did not mention. There's also the they have to prove themselves with the
game makers, and Peter paint a realistic rendition of rue on the ground and
Catnus sees it, and then she takes a dummy and makes it look like
what is his name? Seneca? Yeah, yeah, and then hangs him
because I believe Plutark tells her that's how Seneca died. Yeah, he chose
to stop breathing instead of eating the night locked barriers. And I didn't I
think. I don't know if I mentioned this, but like the night before
they go back into the arena, like Effie once again, it was like
near tears. She's like, you both deserve so much more time. Yeah,
and that part, just like that part always gets me though, Like
people are during the interviews, somebody's like I think has like these people actually
believe this crap and like you gotta see there. Efie has kind of turned
where like you know, everybody else is weeping, and he's like, she
is very good. She's very good. Yeah. She's like, yeah,
now this is bullshit. So, uh the scales have fallen from her eyes.
Yeah, and they So there's a lot like I always get kind of
confused by the ending. There's a lot of running around. Peta gets lost
and like Catnus eventually takes her arrow wraps the copper wire around it. Because
Beattie during the training had pointed out force fields take a lot of energy.
That's why, like in the training center lights are flickering or whatnot, because
there's a force field because last year cat and has shot an arrow at Seneca.
Crazy. Yeah, so instead of shooting like she shoots her arrow straight
up into the top of the force field. It shorts out the force field.
She is electrified, thrown to the ground. She goes unconscious. Have
a craft shows up and in the book, she's like, oh cool,
I'm dead. That's awesome. I wanted to watch. It's still in pain
and like it picks her up and lifts her out of the arena. She
wakes up she grabs a syringe. She hears Hamage talking and there's Hamage and
Plutarch, but no Pita and Gil. Yeah, Gale's there, and Hamidge
is just like like says Peter was taken by the Capital. He didn't get
out, and Catnas starts screaming at him. You promised, you promised.
Hamig is like, I'm just gonna take care of this book quick, and
you know, the Jeckster is something to knock her out, and then I
texted my sister. It's like we've suddenly become like the Inferno and Dante being
moved from Circle of Hell to Circle of Hell, but they knock his ass
out beforehand. Yeah. She finally wakes up, Gales beside her and he's
She's like, where are we are? We home back at District twelve.
She's He's like, no, we're at District thirteen, and then he says
there is no District twelve. It was firebombed into oblivion basically, and then
the Capitol has Peta, Yeah, it has, which made me go like,
there's these really cool mocking Jay promos where you see Snow talking to the
camera and just everybody's dressed in all white and PETA's just there, like looking
stalwart and stoic and you know, and it's just very good. But like
the end of this movie is just Catus getting upset and then becoming resolute and
that she's going to fight the Capitol and like she just stared straight down the
pail into the camera and boom cut the black catching fire. Catnus will turn
and Mocking j Part one, Yes, yeah, and that's what we'll be
doing next week, obviously. I yeah, this still holds up. It's
still really entertaining. I feel like this mocking Jay coming up part one is
kind of a slog because it's mostly just hanging around the base and then Mocking
j Part two just wraps everything up. I remember Philip sin Wohoffman yelling at
Catinus for some reason. Yeah, so we'll be getting into that good memory.
Okay, Well, I mean I'm gonna talk about it next week.
When we talk about this movie, we are like, I have a memory
Flue Stark yelling at a catness. Okay, cool, so oh boy,
