Interestingly enough, in the original series, they mention Lucy Grey briefly but not by name. Which adds to the song she's named after.
"Then he reads the list of past District 12 victors. In seventy-four years, we have had exactly two. Only one is still alive."
the snake was not venomous, even in the book it wasn't. Coriolanus' inner dialogue was insane in the book, he thought the whole way through Lucy Gray belonged to him, as almost property. What is really heartbreaking is that Tigris believed in him so much that Coryo could be a good person, and he just couldn't do it.
I think he could he just chose not to be good.
He has a mental break. He is pushed to choose between the life he wants and the girl he loves and just snaps. He starts making up stuff in his head about how Lucy Gray is a Victor and dangerous and how everyone that crosses her ends up dead. Its all crap but he needs to amp himself up to pull the trigger. Then the snake bite, which confirms to him his delusions. @@LifeWithHeather818
Honestly, i dont think Lucy Gray planted that snake. In the books, they mention that its cold out. I think that Lucy ran from Coryo knowing he was lying and she dropped the shawl when she ran. The snake could have just wondered under there because of Lucy's lingering body heat. Coryo just assumed she did it on purpose.
Great reaction! Suzanne writes such a good story.
The shawl isn't even on the ground in the book. Its snagged on a branch. How do you plant a snake there? Either she snagged it when running or used the branch as a hanger before she went to the river to get the Katniss.
The "singing at snakes" scene is just amazing, both visually and emotionally. Rachel nailed it !
I wish there were a clean song version out there which isn't the audio of the scene... The Ole Therebefore is also simply a great song! :D
Marcus was never said to be Sejanus’ bully, just his former classmate.
Yeah, he actually was one of the ones who was nice to him when everyone else wasn’t which is why this hurts Sejanus even more
BTW Lucy didn't know he was responsible for that...she only got OFFICIALLY suspicious when he said "3 is enough for me" if you watch carefully.
That's when things took a turn and her distrust became clear. After that, you can see that she already concluded to run away from him cause he inadvertedly admitted to killing more people (including his friend).
That's why she still met him by the hanging tree cause she still tried to believe in him. But realized in the woods and in the cabin that he was crazy lol and that she might be next.
Until this reaction and comment, I didn't even think Lucy Gray suspected Coriolanus to be responsible for his death until he let it slip he killed 3 people. Now I look at that shot of her after Sejanus is hanged much more differently
"It's the things we love the most that destroy us."
What a true statement overall. That line at the end gave me chills in the theaters.
I love how it can mean about 6 different things depending on your point of view
Lucy loved him, he destroyed her
Snow loved Lucy and 'her mockingjay' will be the end of him
Snow loved power and control and it destroyed him
Snow loved Lucy Gray and losing her destroyed him
etc
I love the transitional moments with Lucy Gray-the snake down the dress gets everyone’s attention, but the way she casually told the peacekeepers to just give her a moment after the mayor hits her, that tells a story, and the way she addresses the peacekeepers after her little performance is gold too, “C’mon, boys,” she says like they’re just going to grab a drink after another bad day in Twelve. 👸🏻
I know this movie hasn't received the best criticism, but honestly, I love it. Definitely underrated.
People didn’t like it? I know the ending felt rushed but the rest was amazing. I’m surprised people didn’t like it
@@Emperor_DarkWolf Idk, the first comment sounds a bit hard.I feel like most people like it or at least say that it's a good prequel
I’d say it’s been reviewed pretty well. Considering it’s a prequel, I’d say this film has been received pretty favourably.
It seems like it's people who actually read the book. For that reason, I don't want to read the book because I want to keep liking this movie.@@Emperor_DarkWolf
I couldn’t care less about what garbage critics say about anything. They have no credibility whatsoever.
Mysteries have a way of driving Snow mad. Katniss drove Snow mad. Can't wait to read the connecting book to the triology. Respect for Suzanne Collins.
The movie was a decent interpretation but I do recommend people read the book (I know, annoying book person saying that lol), which delves a lot more into Snow's sociopathic mindset and the atmosphere at this time period. They softened a lot of the edges for the movie, which I understand why, but it's worth a read! I really liked the movie, I think they hit everything they needed to, but it's cool to get some context.
What i hope if we get another movie is to see what happened durring Haymitch’s hunger games. Cause if i remember correctly he won the 50th hunger games
yes he was from the last quarter quell, before Catching Fire. It was a GREAT (and tragic) story that was only briefly touched on in the books, I'd love to see that on screen.
The thing is we mostly already know what happened so it’d be kinda boring
I think that, instead of focusing on one Victor's Hunger Games, perhaps a book (and a film) giving snapshots into different tribute's experiences (kind of like a highlight reel of their Games) and using them meeting other Victors as a segue into other Victors' lives. For example, a short view into Mags winning her Hunger Games and becoming the first Victor to go on tour, then her meeting a future Victor and how they won their Games, then them meeting Haymitch and showing flashbacks of his experience in the Games and what happened to his loved ones afterwards, then Mags mentoring Finnick and how he became the youngest Victor and got exploited, then him bonding with Johanna and us seeing Johanna become who she became, etc. That would all lead us up to Katniss and Peeta's Games. It could kind of be a "History of the Hunger Games" book and movie - not to be a huge blockbuster necessarily, but to give fans more insight into the former Tributes and the lives of the past Victors in more depth.
The untouched bow and arrow in the cornucopia because it's too early for Katniss.❤
I loved this movie sooo much as a prequel showing Snow’s demise.
And this movie went ALL OUT-even more than the original movies-with showing how vicious the games were. So imagine if the movies were rated R…it would be even WORSE.
Short info - in the book, Sejanus was bought out of trouble by his father (after his stunt in the arena)
Coriolanus thought that he might buy him out of this one too, but then realized he was wrong when the commander said that Sejanus would be executed.
The recordings also not played in the book. So Sejanus might not have known about the betrayal - here, he definitely figured it out because he was careful that nobody would listen in on them.
Now I know why Snow promised Katniss to never lie to her, because after that whole "I killed my old self" bullsh*t he realized what a bad liar he is😂😂😂
Funny how Gaul couldn't get the snake tank in the arena unless it had a big hole in it...
I dunno if Snow thought he would get him killed so much as Sejanus father would use his money and take him outta 12 an back to the capital or somewhere else, obviously snow turns out to be a bastard, but I think till the end he was trying to do right things like he legit was leaving with Lucy and then the guns gave him a way back in so he had another option but I don’t think he would have tied Lucy gray loses end up until she left then he was like full on villain mode
absolute power corrupts absolutely 🤦🏻♂️
I love how it incorporates what he says to Katniss in Mockingjay 1, when Gale and stuff went to get the victors, including Peeta. "It's what we love most that destroys us"
Last night in Minnesota, "you hear that??? It's the sound of snow...falling."
lol, there actually wasn't any snow here for most of december. ;)
You could clearly tell when Lucy Grey saw that Snow followed her to District 12 she was terrified and once she knew he wasn't trust worthy she left smart girl
Could you? In the book she says 'Its the happiest night of my life' and sings a song about how 'the birds in the heavens know I love you'.
@@04nbod look at her face she wasn't happy
@@DarthKay093 I think you're reading into her face the wrong way. Everything in the movie and especially the book points to her being happy to see him there. She lights up when she sees him and it's in a positive way. I mean all she knows is that Snow cheated for her to win the games. She believes he has her best interests at heart and even writes a song about him.
She was shocked but then she has a big smile on her face. Maybe it gives that vibe because they changed the song from the book. When she sees him she sings him a love song. @@DarthKay093
@@tmm4195 look at her face at the meadow when she is singing Hanging tree that isn't any happy emotion it it terror
While finishing the book, I'd pay close attention to the epigraph quotes, and the Frankenstein one especially: "I thought of the promise of virtues which he had displayed on the opening of his existence, and the subsequent blight of all kindly feeling by the loathing and scorn which his protectors had manifested towards him." This is supposed to represent Coriolanus, and how he is a product of his war and his mentors: starvation, family tragedy, etc. are not easy things to live through, especially given that Dr. Gaul is ironically the only influential figure "on his side", versus Dean Highbottom who has the potential to influence him in a good direction but instead only shows resentment. Suzanne Collins explained how the other quotes show the views of his "protectors", aka. Dr. Gaul with the Hobbes quotes on the brutality of human nature that needs to be controlled versus the Lockian view of the natural rights of humanity (Sejanus + Lucy Gray).
I know it's a popular take that Coriolanus was born inherently evil/sociopathic, but I think the theme of the novel itself is that our circumstances shape us, but we always have a choice. Coriolanus (as Tom Blyth said) was born into circumstances that seem tailor made to make him into the dictator he becomes, but the tragedy is the fact that we see he might have ended up differently if he had chose the difficult, good path.
I don't think Katniss was supposed to have the same accent as Lucy. Lucy says that she's not really from District 12, so it makes sense that she has a different accent. Besides, the way people speak changes over time, so even if they had an accent now, it could change in 64 years. We see that in the Capitol, people don't sound exactly the same as in the original movies.
But the mayors daughter also had an accent.
Haymitch also has a twang. @@lisah8438
Katniss was supposed to have the same accent since it’s an Appalachian accent which is where district 12 is. Lucy Gray moved to 12 when she was 6 so she’d still pick up the accent by now
How it all began: President Snow DLC
Katniss mentions in the books that there was another winner before Haymitch but it was such a long time before that no one knows anything about them.
Flickerman released songbirds which meant he did predict Lucy Grey Baird (like bird) as the winner.
And rewatch when Coryo recorded Sejanus. He clearly states that Mr Plinth will buy Sejanus out of trouble like every time before but Coryo doesn’t have that luxury. I’m not sure that Coryo thought Sejanus would actually be hung. I think he figured his father would pay to have him given a lighter reprimand.
I wish you guys went into the credits! The song seems like it was written by Lucy gray and is like a hint that she’s out there and haunts snow
My girlfriend and I saw this in IMAX 1.90:1 (the aspect ratio opened up to 1.90:1 for several scenes) and we both enjoyed it.
Regarding accents: The Covey aren’t necessarily from the Appalachian Mountains since they’re nomads & they aren’t from District 12; they were merely placed there. So an accent for Lucy Grey isn’t entirely necessary/accurate.
There are studies showing that many accents are fading and in due time they’ll either be meshed together or lost completely so Katniss doesn’t really have to have an accent nearly a century later.
I mean, the covey isn't from 12 but Lucy lived most of her life there since she was a child. And children tend to adopt the accents of the people around them more than adults do. Think immigrant parents and their childrren. Even if both of them lived in an area for the same amount of time, the child is going to acquire the native accent but the parent would still keep their accent.
@@euphrasiepolly5575 The Covey travelled through southern states before 12 & have a “Southern” accent. So they all have non-Appalachian accents but it didn’t matter to peace keepers- it was close enough lol
There are children who don’t adopt accents of the surrounding natives btw. Especially speaking multiple languages- sometimes they have a hint of their primary tongue/ accent. This often creates new dialects/accents altogether which is how the Appalachian accent was created in the 1st place.
I just came out the cinema after watching this and i loved it. It really did a great job in humanizing snow and getting you to like him, he's not fully a bad guy but he's no Saint either. He's the right mix of likable and relatable and selfish sociopath. And this is due to Matthew Bliight, it really does great in subtly planting to what snow would become by showing his more psychotic tendencies.
No doubt my favorite movie of 2023. I had no expectations for this movie!
The way they have , the mentor, the prize, and the peacekeeper is pretty cool. It’s different than the other movies. I don’t think the other movies didn’t do that. So I think that’s cool.
Honestly i enjoyed this movie very much. I think its a great addition to the Hunger Games universe. I also kinda liked Lucy more then Katniss tbh
actually lucky's prediction for who he'd think will win was Lucy gray because the birds that flew were songbirds. The songbirds are supposed to represent Lucy Gray therefor making it his prediction
I definitely don't think he predicted her as the winner. I think he ripped it up and turned it into birds because his card didn't have her name on it, and he didn't want people to see that. Just listen to everything he says before she goes into the arena like "I don't like your odds, but I like you" or "it's nice to witness someone's final performance". Lol he had no faith in her
@@tmm4195that's true i got that off a hunger games account on tiktok but just realised it was a fanfic account 😔
Shout-out to Amazon Prime's drone program at 27:33!
The movie is long and not boring, I really wish it was longer
“Goodbye Lucy Gray, we hardly knew you.”
And "Poor, foolish, sensible sejanus"
Snow was so cold in his inner tought...
@@laurine____7543 “Poor sensitive, foolish, dead Sejanus.” :(
@@falsenostalgia-shannon even worst
This film is amazing. I agree with Sejanus about ending the games and trying to do something good, but the way he does it gets a little annoying, because he wants to do the right thing, but always in the wrong way or risking his and others' lives, but I also agree that he was a very good friend to Snow.
I don't remember Marcus bullying sejanus. I think they helped each other somehow, before sejanus left for the capitol. Marcus felt betrayed after that.
Idk where you got the bullying idea from it’s only said that they didn’t really know eachother outside of being classmates and that Marcus helped sejanus when he was hurt once (off the top of my head lol)
5:31 yes they did, watch it again
I think Lucy Gray probably fled deep into 13 and it does anthesis her character, but it would also keep her more hidden, and snow would turn a blind eye.
Snow was haunted by the possibility of Lucy Gray being alive. He wouldn't have turned a blind eye if he knew roughly where she was because he was hell bent on becoming who he became and gaining power.
I enjoyed this hunger games prequel over a month ago.
He didnt back away from the kiss bcause he thought "she was beneath him", He was jealous because of the song she sang about her ex. He even asked right after he moved away from her kiss.
He never saw her as "beneath him"
I love how both you and Clariss are wearing Adidas hoodies.
Now we know why 12 is one of the Poorer Districts, Snow has had many reasons to hate 12 from the death of his father to his perceived betrayal from Lucy. And now we know why he was especially cruel to Haymidge after he won his games by a technical win. And i can't wait to see the film based on Haymidge's game.
snow lands on top.
Happy (early) New Year Tim!
I don’t know how this would hold on another viewing, but I liked this a bit. Thought both leads were great, and the makeup on Viola Davis is amazing.
Happy New Year's Eve!!
I'm going to bookmark this video for future reference💖
1:35 dammit, I want my name there. But I don't have enough money for the patreaons😢😢
Awesome reaction of my favorite The Hunger Games movie!!!!😊😊😊😊
Agree it is one of my favorites hunger games movies i see it with my sister in the theater
I love this movie so much
I want to say...Thanks for the amazing reactions in this 2023 year, for many ideas for something to watch, I'm so glad you found love and bless your beautiful wife and thanks for her reactions too. Special thanks to the SpongeBob series one of the best reactions 😊 Happy New Year 💫🎆🎇🎉🎊🎄🕛 And I wish you that next year will be awesome and new movies 2024 will make you happy ❤
loved the movie but i really hate the use of the it's the thing we love most phrase at the end. snow did not love lucy he saw her as his posesion, while the end makes it seem like she betrayed him (she didnt, she realized he was going to kill her too and run) and that's what made him become what he ends up being which uhm no, he was always a little bit of a piece of shit and then he became a full piece of shit
50:58 This scene in 65 years later is like: What’s the matter Snow, you missed me?
This is actually a decent watch in my opinion. I mean, for a Hunger Games prequel with no Jennifer Lawrence goes, that’s about as good as it can get. It’s not that bad of a prequel.
Happy New Years Tim.
I love this movie, but there are so many versions of hate that pop up in this movie through phrasing, or scene changes and stuff... my god! XD
I was wondering if you guys could react to the Prince of Egypt Musical. In my opinion, this one is better than the Shrek one.
FIRST LIKE!! I AM SO EXCITED!! LEAVE YOUR BELLS ON FOR THIS CHANNEL!!
Snow lands on toppp loved this movie so much
Hard to believe that it’s the end of the year. Happy New Year Tim. I used to be obsessed with the Hunger Games books and movies. This movie has its problems for sure. But overall I enjoyed it.
I feel like Clariss low key spoiled some stuff 😂
It wasent more brutal than the originals HG
31:04
I know this isn't a movie, but he NEEDS to react to the new Percy Jackson show 😭 I love the new cast
Great movie
Happy new year though 🎉🎉
Happy new year!!
People do love ❤️ the Hunger Games
EXEPT the ones playing the games.....XD😈😜❤
Where can I see this movie digitally?
It's on Amazon Prime and here on RUclips.
Fun fact Rachel zegler said some of the snakes were real
It cant be less " quick, fast" that what the realistors did...
Strangely for me, I enjoyed the movie more than the book, bc I thought the movie polished up the story and left out unnecessary details. It is definitely helpful to read the book to get Coryo's inner dialogue tho. I saw the movie first so maybe that's why...
Please watch Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. 👍😄
Do "Cars On The Road" Please.
Awesome ❤❤
Awesome reaction.
Hi I just on Wednesday,watched this movie and I really like it
Everyone blames Snow so much for betraying Sejanus ... And while I agree that he did betray him he was just looking out for himself. His character during the entire book makes all his decisions out of self interest/preservation.
Snow honestly believed that he would have been in trouble just by association with Sejanus. Just like when he was forced into the arena and Gaul said "you chose to be friends with him" and just like at the hanging tree how lil was arrested just for loving Arlo. Snow would have been punished for Sejanus had he been discovered.
Also at Sejanus hanging they didn't play the part with Coryo's voice so she didn't know for sure until the mess up saying he killed 3.
great
Oh, yeah I heard they were making a prequel. XD I may just skip this reaction and watch it myself (no offense Timmy my good man)(also thanks for reading my serious comment it means a lot someone with a big per audience actually cares to read and listen to someone going through something ridiculous 😊❤ thank you Timmy no really. , I’d go more in detail if your curious Timmy, but the past is the past. You gotta move forward and not care what judgmental assuming meanies say on deviant art. XD not everyone is the same. (Including humor) Everyone is different and that’s ok. ☺❤

Day 154 of me requesting a reaction to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
To be honest, this movie had to do quite a bit, it wasn't at the level of the others. It could have been much better
Disliking jus cause it took him too long
