I Love Your Blog. Nothing Irks Me More Than How The Media Portrays The Books/movies, And How Many People

I love your blog. Nothing irks me more than how the media portrays the books/movies, and how many people hate thg because it's "the next twilight" Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one who actually realizes the depth of the series, that all this happened to children, that the story is about a 17 year old girl who is forced into death matches; not the tale of how the next Disney princess found her true love. So thank you, for pointing out what should be, but evidently isn't, the obvious. 😄

Haha thanks!! I don’t tend to pay attention to the media anyway seeing as most of what they come up with is exaggerated or twisted in some way. I can see how they’re trying to appeal to a certain audience but yeah it annoys me too. A lot of people on tumblr here understand though, you’d be surprised at how many do :)

no bUT LIKE

mags knew her days were running out and she decided that instead of letting death come to her she would go into that arena and help the resistance because she wanted to die for something meaningful

mags volunteered to take annie’s place knowing really well that she wasn’t gonna make it, because she preferred to die rather than risking losing annie and having finnick live without her 

mags was an eighty year old lady volunteering to go fight to the death once again for a new world that she probably knew she would never see

and if that isnt the punkest thing you have ever heard in your whole goddamn life then you can get the fuck out of my face

Ohhh... Katniss is not a real superhero???? No, she is not.

Did people really forgot that Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark are 17 years old???

17.

17.

17.

What were some of you doing at 17? Smoked pod? Went to dances… Lived the drama of high school?

This characters are NOT a reminder of what teenagers living in normal circunstances are; but what teenagers and kids living under the arms of war ARE.

People with paranoia, sickness, fear. People trying to survive the ultimate price of the powerful against the innocent.

Admirable people. Broken people.

People who struggle with an interrupted childhood… so much, that is a sin to try and hope happiness from them; people who mature so fast… faster than any of us, lucky bastards, who have never been in the middle of a tiny little fight.

We shouldn’t expect for them to be heroes or heroines.

But they are, in their not perfect… “superpowery” way. They need to be value as the bravest people in this world because, excuse me, but I don’t think I could be that strong. I, myself, have fainted at the sight of a little piece of blood.

So, people expecting to see superheroes in this movie… why don’t you better go and watch something marvel?

This movies and characters are not just fiction for teenagers *As some of you call them*

They are a reflection of the reality we are living in.

Innocent people being killed or tortured. Normal human beings living under awful cincunstances. Inexperienced people who react and give everything they can to survive.

Think about the children. Think about the future of this world. Not your idea that all heroes should be Superman.

peeta mellark really was that bitch, pulling that “if it weren’t for the baby” line out of nowhere, oh he knew

EPILEPSY WARNING FOR HUNGER GAMES

During the evacuation in District 13, when everyone is decending the stairs, there is a very strong flashing blue light.

Please be aware of this if you’re seeing the movie and your epilepsy could be triggered by this.

The flashing ends once the 3 characters are through the doors (sorry, trying not to spoil too much as well).

Please reblog to spread the word.
