Still Upset That The Films Never Acknowledge That Peeta Loses A Limb In The First Arena And Goes Through

still upset that the films never acknowledge that Peeta loses a limb in the first arena and goes through the Quarter Quell with a prosthetic leg

If I were in the Hunger Games I would use one of the parachutes and gift containers and put all kinds of poisonous berries in them and then climb trees and send them down to unsuspecting tributes. Oh, you thought you were getting a nice fruit salad? Think again. POISON.

Do you ever get rly pissed because the hunger games films could’ve told such a deep story with themes that reflect our own society’s oppressive systems

but instead they whitewashed the main leads, erased their disabilities, and pretty much romanticized the violence

remember when everyone was reading the hunger games and one of the major themes was how the media toned down all the horrible things that were happening to focus on the bullshit love story and then the books got made into movies and the real life media toned down the horrible things that were happening to focus on the bullshit love story because I still think about that sometimes

Person A of your OTP, half of the face of a rebellion, has been captured by the regime, brainwashed, and made into an anti-propaganda spokesperson.  One day, while they are giving a speech appealing to the rebels to stop the violence, the broadcast is interrupted.  Through the static, Person A sees images of their hometown, destroyed by the regime to set an example–and they hear Person B’s voice, singing an old, familiar song they once sung to A.  It’s enough to temporarily break through the brainwashing, allowing Person A to warn Person B of an upcoming attack against the rebel base before they get beaten on screen and the broadcast gets cut.  The entire time, Person A is watching the broadcast from the base.  (OT3:  Person C is the tech person who broke through the regime’s security, and as Person A starts having a breakdown, they comfort them quickly and urgently as they try to usher them down to the bomb shelters to prepare for the upcoming attack.)

it's kinda fun to imagine what happened to Panem after the revolution, like people from the districts interacting with Capitol people and exchanging culture

you know, like the Capitol wearing less fancy clothes and the districts getting some of those tattoos
