Katniss brought her Dyson Airwrap into the bomb bunker, definitely
The only thing she saved from the tik tok arena
And she is so vagina slay for that
Beetee probably made her one out of some wire and some motor he made 💀💀💀
She totally found it at the cornucopia on her first trip to the tiktok arena
nah girlie made heatless curls with her socks or smth
"Panem today, Panem yesterday...Panem the day Alison Dilaurentis went missing." I CACKLED
I bet Alison saw the entire cast of Hunger Games on the day she disappeared.
@@shakirashipslied9721 i bet she even made the traps
Panem the day we hear from Denise Richards again.
I can't believe you didn't mention her absolute oscar-worthy performance when she goes back to the house and starts screaming at the cat !!!
that gets me everytime
Omg that scene blew my back out I was not expecting it
I was so scared for that cat cuz mockingslay was UNHINGED
i just rewatched p2 and was like damn what the cat do 😭😭😭😭
@@stanaccountm9502it WOT
I do feel like Peeta was an underrated boss in the books-- he makes a lot of clever strategic moves in the background that let Katniss be the icon she is. In the movies they don't convey any of that you really do get bread
@Bla Bla hutcherson in mockingjay lives in my mind rent free, man was ACTING™️
@@svgstarlight you’re so real for that one
I'm so mad people didn't read the books and walked away from the movies thinking Peeta was weak and useless 😭
@@alim.9801 REAL
yesss. i’m reading the books right now. i really hope one day she does books from peetas pov
I think we don’t talk enough about how president snow did all that at katniss’ birthday dinner
Time 👏 and 👏 place :👏
people died
I forgot about that!
And he acted…like it was just like no big deal
I completely forgot that Johanna wasn't a lesbian in the movies/books. At some point I just convinced myself it was cannon
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! LMAO i totally thought it was too bc....cmon....!!!
its givingg gay erasure
mean lesbians stay supreme
@@pulped69dago91 TRUE
Same. Especially since they're even closer in the books. Like they become eachothers support system in district 13.
Johanna and Finnick do get to do more in the books! And yeah, Suzanne Collins actually admitted that killing Finnick was the one thing she wishes she could go back and change, at it happened because she was being rushed by the publishing house and basically added it for shock value because she did not have time to think of a more satisfying gut punch at that moment, especially with the stress all around her
That makes me want to cry . Thr fact that if they didnt rush her that he mightve been alive ...😭
As much as I hate that they killed Finnick, it’s realistic. In a war people don’t not die just bc they just got married or something.
I think it adds to the realism of the series, in terms of the dynamics of revolutionary action. By the end of the series, although you are happy that they rebelled and won, that happiness is blunted by grief for everyone that was lost in the struggle.
@@engf223 i just think that with Finnick its too much trauma porn like his life has been a living hell for so many years. He gets a SLIVER of happiness (still drenched in trauma) and then is brutally murdered by being eaten alive which is so bad that katniss has to explode him instead. Its like way too much bad happening to just him.
Exactly. Like I’m not happy he died, but from a story perspective, I’m happy he died.
@@engf223 😢😢😢😢😢😢
The books are so beyond slay. Suzanne C began AND ended the teen dystopia. No one did it like her. The criticism of war etc etc wrapped in a teen book... unmatched. Divergent, however, mama, what was that
divergent was so boring
I went from Hunger Games to Divergent and it was so bad I didn't read another YA book for at least a year. Suzanne supremacy
@@hockeygrrlmuse i didnt read the new HG book bc i want the og trilogy to remain impeccable in my mind

Those "bye sisters" arrows did so much for the vitamin gummie bear slayvolution. Thank you for honoring them.

@@arfreda5912 I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THE SAME THING
show this to a child from 1890 and they will literally disappear from the timeline
@@cramarshe and that’s why they’re trustworthy
Ngl, I’m so sad they cut Johanna’s story from the book. Her torture in The Capitol via being dunked in water and then electrocuted was so sad. I remember she was initially supposed to go with Katniss and Co. but when they all had to go through “tests,” she failed hers bc she had a breakdown when the room filled with water. She’s such a sad and tragic character, I wish she got to see more of her instead of focusing only on Finnick’s story.
I agree (it doesn’t help that I have extra empathy for a fellow traumatised Johanna). Unfortunately, im not shocked that they chose to focus on a hot, tragic lover boy with a heart of gold than a mess, wounded, and complicated woman with greyer morals and unlikeable personality traits :/ I would’ve killed for more of her! More movies with messy, mean, compassionate ladies!
and how they were ROOMMATES and had such a beautiful and complicated friendship. it was my favorite friendship in the entire series
@Bla Bla lets be real, if hollywood execs got a choice of "Attractive sweet man" or "complicated traumatized woman" lets not pretend that they wouldnt go for the dude even if his story was garbage just to bait in people that only watch movies for attractive characters. Theres a reason most actors are conventionally attractive
@Bla Bla i think this compounds the og point tbh, im not sure that they meant sexism. its the need the filmmakers felt to emphasise the romance/glamour in the movie. peeta stayed conventionally attractive and finnick became the tragic heartthrob, joanna likely wasnt chosen to be explored bc shes not a sad, heoric man for teens to obsess over & they knew the genres demands and what they had with finnicks actor
RIGHT? That irked me so much
why is this genuinely one of your funniest videos - “and you did it at my birthday dinner” is fucking hilarious
Legit so fucking good
13:40
The wildest part about the books is that Peeta loses his leg after the first Hunger Games and then is doing all this running around shit with a severe limitation. Made scenes 1000x more stressful and idk why they didn't add it in the film adaptations.
Wait what HUH???? HELLO HE LOSES ONE OF HIS LEGS?? THAT 100% SHOULDVE BEEN IN THE MOVIES?
And Katniss loses part of her hearing
@@roxanne_ I really wish they had kept the characters disabilities in the movie. So many disabled characters are villains or lessons. It would've been a great opportunity for representation.
Cause they don't think amputation is hot lmao. Katniss' scar from the first games completely disappears and all
how he has as much internet culture brain rot as he does and is still successful and not in an institution is a complete miracle
and inspiring tbh
and has a master's degree and 99% SAT
@@beldinlov13 damn a 99% SAT??? That's impressive as hell good for him. Knew he was smart but dang

I love that Michael's Microphone calls new supporting characters "the irrelevants" im crying
i am absolutely stealing that i will never refer to them as anything else now
Omg! This is hilarious 😂
I mean, in the books Katniss even refers to them as "the insects"
@@alti2bonly the film people because of their gear. The others were just her random squad members
absolutely no one is booing katniss and Johanna. in fact the crowd is roaring, cheering, fainting, supporting
and they were roommates
@@l0v3lu1z4 oh ma god, they were roommates
25:00 fun moment - Katniss had realised that Coin was just as bad as snow by this point, especially after the use of Gale’s hummingbird trap, and catch-up with snow. As a result, the only reason she agreed to the capitol hunger games was to ensure that Coin would not see her as a threat.
Katniss essentially sucked up to Coin so that she could then assassinate her, without suspicion, to prevent another tyrannical dictator from repeating the horrors of the games.
If you read the books then you’ll know it’s only when she’s about to kill snow that she realises that coin is evil. I love katniss but she’s always been very impulsive and never once in the book does she think that far ahead, that’s her whole thing, that she gets carried by her emotions and her humanity instead of cold hearted logic like gale or pure kindheartedness like peta. In the books, she votes yes for the hunger games out of pure rage for prims death, and that’s why haymitch votes yes too, because he sees the pain in her eyes and understands her like he always does. It’s only when she’s standing in front of snow that she really remembers the deal they made never to lie to each other (and how snow never did lie) and decides to shoot Coin and then kill herself, which she was going to do anyways because killing snow was the only thing she was staying alive for.
I appreciate Mike's ability to bring up PLL in almost every video.
pure talent
he really has to do something with his knowledge of PLL and i love that he does it
Marlene is blackmailing him at this point
Amazing how he consistently manages that
Have not yet heard PLL in the video but now very excited, I thank you
Edit: I heard it and I was pleased
"If I ever build a house, just know that there is an iconic underground steel concrete glass situation going on" "Seeing others underground in a cool steel concrete glass structure, that's the dream" - Mike, that sounds like your planning on building a glass cage for your victims like Joe in You
my thoughts exactly 😂 I was thinking bestie stop now you sound a bit too sus
Mike... I thought you liked Cinna...
Don’t judge his taste for an underground cool steel concrete glass structure, let him have his fantasy >:(
Mike should be banned from architecture unis
it would be a tunnel, totally different ☝🏽😌
So when I was a teenager my ADHD got a lot worse and I stopped reading books almost completely. My best friend read constantly. Whenever she would read a book she loved she would call me and summarize it exactly like this. This is all to say I absolutely love your videos because it feels like I’m 13 again on the phone with my bestie. 💕💕
This is so cute 😭
It’s been nearly a decade, and I’m still SO MAD about Finnick’s death. Like, what was the point, Suzanne?? He deserved a happy ending with Annie and his son 🥹😭😭
literally on the verge of tears thinking about him for the first time in years☝️
Gale was one of the first up the ladder and he supposedly loved katniss, not very fucking slay
@@stanaccountm9502 gale was such a little bitch boy I actually cannot fucking deal with him
Even though the books are by far better than the movies in terms of character building (and characters in general), story, plot context, general slaying, and everything, I think the Hunger Games movies are one of the best book to movie adaptations EVERR. Plus most of the cast being phenomenal and/or super hot and/or the slays of the century. Truly incredible
Agree!!
@Bla Bla yes! I get so many goosebumps everytime I watch that scene.
I say this anytime any one gives me the chance to talk about book to movie adaptations. ✨
gone girl was the best movie adaption ever
I would wager that Hunger Games was the ONLY book-to-movie franchise which managed to take the doors Harry Potter opened and actually do something even better with the opportunity. The production value, the acting, the costume design, the soundtrack..... 10/10
No other book-to-movie franchise can come close.
katniss’ wig in mockingjay is probably the BEST WIG in all of cinematic history!!!!! that thing is SLAYING !!!
Mockingjay? More like mockingslay
@@lupes4195 mockingslay? More like mockinggay
Uhm Regina George’s wig begs to differ
@@KingOfGaymes I just have to say I love this comment and there for love you 😂
@@Phia525 let’s be fr that wig was almost as bad as Bella’s after new moon, the katniss wig outsold tbh
Peeta narratively was the best choice for Katniss at the end but for anyone who read the books, Joanna was also a solid choice. They were besties in the books.
Also Finnick was definitely a final girl, i still remember reading the part where it just said "Finnick wasn't there." to signal his death and there were lots of screaming crying throwing up on my part.
Johanna was completely okay with a symbolic Hunger Games. Katniss would never be okay with that lol
@@any8574katniss also voted yes though
That freaking Lorde curated soundtrack for the film is outstanding, both soundtrack albums from the Hunger Games franchise are amazing actually.
Yellow Flicker Beat is such a good song dude, even separated from the movie its such a banger
mike saying "that's dumb. no one's gonna laugh at that" right after i just laughed at that 💀
With the Lisa Rinna M&M meme appearing 😭😭😭
At last! I needed to know who that m&m lady was. Had me on the floor ever time.
Mockingslay was an amazing ending and I stand by that! Iconic assassination, exploration of PTSD, and epilogue
Yes I will die on this hill
@@samanthasteighner1999 That was not an assassination, it was an assasinslaytion
It was a wayyy better ending than the book too
@@stellwyn bye I was talking about the book 😭😭 agree to disagree
NGL, I was kind of salty that the ending was just, “And they lived happily ever after and made babies!” Like, that shit is so boring!
Finnick definitely did more in the books! We learn so much more about his story, really recommend the read. Also the way Katniss chooses for Peta makes much more sense in the books, in the second book it describes them being on tour and very slowly but surely building up a very personal relationship through their shared trauma. In the movie he just holds her when she has nightmares but in the book there was actually a really nice buildup to that moment to make it significant. Movies are just shorter so I'm sure it was a hard to put it all in the movie like that!
The real crazy part about Finnick's death is that Miss Collins herself regretted killing him
As she should x
So happy you decided to finish the Hungergames saga. Traumatic slaughters of some main characters aside the last film is saur good.
It’s SAURRR good 😌
Saaaaauuuuurrrrrr GUD.
SAUR 💀
I hope that kitty got its VPN, that poor thing was IN THE TRENCHES throughout the series.
God, I love this comment, thank you 😂😂
What’s even worse is that not only did Finnick die after FINALLY getting his happy ending with Annie, but she was also pregnant with their son at the time of his death (which I’m pretty sure they didn’t include in the movies). Neither of them (Finnick or Annie) knew she was pregnant when he went to the Capital with Katniss and then he never came home 😭😭😭😭
i think they did show her with a kid in the movie
Finnick was FOR THE PEOPLE, to this day im still mad they killed him off. why would you kill off the major hottie, star, amazing friend and dramaking that he was. Lets all be very real
ok but what if after seeing all them tati birth-slay dinner clips, i now want a full mick’s mic recap on dramageddon 2.0? it would serve so hard youtube would close down.
This is a need not a want
We NEED this. Its truly what i need to process the èvent fully
YES
I fully don't believe this website is ready for that but oh lordt do I need it
Not the same, but Contrapoints talks about it in her Cancelling video! Mike recently mentioned in a Google interview that Contrapoints is a RUclipsr he enjoys so 👀
i was recently at a club in france and they played the hanging tree trap remix. i was tipsy, jetlagged, and convinced myself it was a hallucination because i would not have been able to handle it
This made me laugh so hard
😂
"One thing about Lorde is that she's going to send an email" is so f-ing true and funny because now she has her little fan email newsletter 😭📧
This made me scream honestly
when i heard "peeta annoys me" i started screaming in protest and then i heard "katniss and johanna"
calmed me down instantly
Your opinions are so correct - Finnick final girl, Katniss x Johanna. Absolutely.
Also lmaooo at the Charli tweets. It gave very much Anna Kendrick “Holy Shit I just remembered I was in Twilight”
I mean ngl I think most of the cast want to forget being in twilight
I feel like Johanna x Katniss insinuates that both Gale and Peeta are open… for each other?? Enemies to lovers?? Gale redemption arc??
@Adele Aslan THAT’S WHAT I’M SAYING!!!
@@adeleaslan8182 what's the word in anime where it's a couple where one of them is really mean to the other one but they like each other?? Bc that would be Peeta and Gale
@@alim.9801 tsundere and ur so right
I was obsessed with the hunger games series in middle school, I remember when I was reading Mockingjay my mom had to pick me up from school early bc I was literally in crisis and sobbed all day after reading Finnick’s death scene bc he was my absolute favorite character
SAMEE
HG had me in a CHOKEHOLD in middle school
I’m crying laughing at this comment why is this something that would’ve happened to me 😂😂😂
Reasonable tbh
I see you're also a Joanna stan. Joanna does have a bigger part in the book. Her and Katnis are rehab buddies, they trained together and become pretty close. Joanna was part of Katniss's realization that Coin wasn't a good person.
“Pop Base was tweeting about it. And then 5 seconds later, Pop Crave was also tweeting about it,” is the most realistic part of this breakdown.
Throwback to when I threw a hunger games birthday in the 7th grade and everyone ran around killing each other with water pistols… a slay if I ever saw one
Literal “slay” 🔫
My favorite part of the book was Finnick was exposing Snow for how he exploits victors after they win. Finnick didn’t let women pay him, they just told him secrets about snow. It was so details and heartbreaking and I wish they went into more depth during the movie. But I’m glad you brought it up because a lot of people didn’t listen to him and were too focused on gale in the capitol
@Bla Bla no there was sooo much character development potential from the books that they missed out on
'and you did it at my birthday dinner' is a galactic slay, i cannot get over it
Mike im dead serious you are one of the greatest minds of our time.
I conquer
Yass Julius slay, but try not to get slayed.
peeta in that first interview is literally Brittany S. Pierce saying “stop the violence” at the infamous quinn/Santana fight
I appreciate the Finnick love. Pretty sure the only reason he was killed was for shock value and I haaaAAaaate it.
Like you know it’s gotta be shock value, because he got married and everything. We don’t even get to see how Annie reacts to Finnick’s death 🥲💅 like Suzslay even gave her PTSD from the HG and now she’s just in the trenches
Tbh, I think Suzanne Collins did that to display how tragic war is. She took an innocent bystander and made her the center of the war (Katniss), killed off two characters we loved and rooted for (Finnick and Prim), took a kindhearted boy and twisted his mind and turned him into something he swore he’d never become (Peeta), and took a character who lost everything and endured the worst but didn’t really find any resemblance of peace or healing (Johana). I hate the fact that Finnick died, but I think that’s what really made the story what it was. Collins wrote characters that we could sympathize with, gave us insights into their lives, and killed them off to demonstrate how casualties of wars and oppressive governments are human beings with their own feelings and stories. It’s fucking awful, but it’s affective storytelling.
@@bekahswanson i totally agree w you but i think suzanne collins said she regrets killing finnick lmao
@@iwakeupandboomimarat Its because shes a Finnick stan, as she should be
@@iwakeupandboomimarat haha, its understandable that she would regret it, she made him and he was great! But also, it was the right thing to do for the plot. The book would have been less realistic if everyone we loved lived and I think it would have felt more "shock value"-y if only the really innocent characters (like Ru and Prim) died.
In the books the mutts are supposed to look like they used to be human (distinctly human eyes) but ig it’s kinda hard to rly get that vibe across in movie form when it’s not the main focus of the scene so they just didn’t do that
"and most importantly, joana is saved" so true miss king
JLaw's quick venture in and out of the music industry happened so quick I forgot it happened at all.
She came, she slayed then she dipped
Ultimate one hit wonder
I love how she was like "they had to make me sing, I didn't want to sing, it was not the vibe" and then girl makes a hit song lmao
Katniss and Joanna.. you’re so right for that. You’ve changed my whole outlook on life.
EXACTLY
Honestly I was so for this but I think there might be a big age gap between them 😭😭😭 Tell me if i'm wrong tho
@@FreyjaShartSquad i think katniss was 18/19 by the end of the books, johanna was about 22 ? so not too bad
Finnick dying was THE ONE thing that made me stop reading the book, tossing it aside for months and only returning to it because my stupid, anxiety fueled brain couldn't take the burden of not finishing it 😪
Johanna’s role in Mockingjay was severely cut. She did so much more in the book and it still pisses me off to this day how dirty they did her in Part 2
But the real question we should be asking:
Are you? Are you, coming to the tree?
Where they hung up a man, they say who murdered three
bffr
@@KingOfGaymes strange things did happen here
@@urieommarang and stranger will they be
Katniss really was the girlboss to end all girlbosses. She slayed. She LITERALLY slayed
"That incompleteness is gnawing on me like a rat with a biscoff in the New York city subway" is literally a masterpiece of rhetoric. I've never seen such aesthetically and efficiently productive imagery.
"panem today, panem yesterday, panem the day alison dilaurentis went missing" 💅slayyy💅
I never realize just how much I took Hunger Games for granted. It's truly the slayest film of all time. Every rewatch, every video made about, every mention of Hunger Games just makes so pumped. I don't think there's ever been a franchise so iconic and interesting, in terms of worldbuilding, plot, and impact
Right??? It took me YEARS to realise just how fucking good those movies were? Even from an adaptation viewpoint (from what i've heard, cause I haven'tread them myself, but it's good enough that any criticism isn't about missing major plotpoint or changing major stuff etc and now i plan on reading the trilogy cause i just want to get to experienceeven more of the story in more detail)!! Back when they were coming out, I guess I was too young or not invested enough to actually take a second and get how good and well-done and written they were, but now I'm actually blown away?? Like, how any other franchise dared touch on the ya dystopian genre baffles me. How did they ever think any other adaptation or original story could ever compare in the slightest? I'll never understand lmao
Yeah I feel like so many bad dystopian books came out after this that hunger games just got lumped into that category with them, but girl she did not deserve that, these books ate
Every few years I go through a phase of re-reading the books and consuming every possible video about the movies because I was just so obsessed as a teenager. And this video really came right on time for this round of refreshing my obsession
NO LITERALLY ME TOO
Gurl I remember getting a “Most obsessed fan” award in middle school cuz I was so into hunger games while we read it in class 😭🤚
I cant wait to get to read the books, im currently on the Maze runner series and then im hoping to do the Hunger games and divergent series
SAME ahahaha
The way you said "hydroelectric dam" sent me into a fit of laughter
the decision of having peeta and katniss be endgame makes a lot more sense in the books and i will always stand by that!! imo they have one of the best romantic build-ups in that era of YA and possibly ever, and i remember vividly how much i sobbed reading that ending with them being happy and living a quiet peaceful lives with their kids
One thing about me I'm gonna stop whatever I'm doing to watch Mike's Mic💁🏾♀️
A has stopped all activity*
SAME
I had a timer from his insta post for 6 hours
Same
you're so real
can we talk about Gale Warcrime Hawthorne’s role in Prim’s death
Hahahahaha
Can we not?
he’s so obamacore, should be held accountable tbh
in the book it's left ambiguous if he had anything to do with the plan, although i'm sure if he knew, he didn't try to stop it. i'm always shocked people are so nasty about gale tho. dude lived under a violent, oppressive fascist system and lost literally everything in an act of genocide by the Capitol, presumably carrying some serious survivors guilt about not being able to save everyone in District 12. like, i'm not shocked at all he was willing to do anything to defeat the Capitol.
The "Florence Welch cosplayer" bit got me 🤣 also loved your imitations of Katniss being strangled
"he sees her and hes like ITS CLOBBERING TIME!!"
"he annoys me. hes a nice guy...but in the end he annoys me."
this. this is why i watch this channel
also 2:41 KING
10:14 Did you knew that 'hanging tree' debuted at #12 on Billboard 100? That's the power of mockingslay
The RICO scandal of it all!!
The Lisa Rinna M&M has now been cemented in my brain like a brand to a cow
it never fails to make me giggle
So I read the book before the movie came out. I thought it was a great book. I don’t remember much because it was almost a decade ago but Joanna and Katniss trained together and bonded a lot. In the end after Coin was killed, Joanna was deeply disappointed because she wanted Snow to die under Katniss’ hands. They never saw each other ever again.
And I'm still salty about it🤧
I feel so bad for Peeta I forgot how bad he must have been tortured to believe Katniss was evil rip his sanity
Johanna had a really strong story in the books that was SO underutilised in the movies. Literally pissed me off they didn't use more of it
The Mike’s Mics Cinematic Universe (MMCU) has added yet another banger in the timeline. Very well done
The MCU could never
There should be a Mics Mike encyclopedia so anyone at any time and place can understand his references.
“However I do feel like it does a solid job of closing out the plot, which is famously the hardest part of a story to write.”
I’m absolutely sending this quote to all my writer friends because it will make their day.
mike is giving me like refined eboy vibes with this look right now and I know that may be considered heresy but i'm kinda here for it
he just needs a dangly earring please michael's microphone give the people what they want
Naur naur, you're right. It's a cross between his rich harvard boy look and an insta eboy.
OK actually about that Hanging Tree remix, my theory was always (internally, idk if it’s real) that it was a bit of an in-universe thing. The rebels broadcasted the original song, and part of the Capitol’s response is to make it into a remix that turns a sincere, emotional song into a simple party song. It’s very Chained to the Rhythm where the message about how pop music stops us from seeing that the world is falling apart is kinda undermined by the song being an incredible pop song, so you can be bopping along to it and not really connecting the dots.
Your brain
Ooo I love this theory so much. Feels very plausible

I’m a year late but your videos have instantly added 10+ years to my life
when katniss says yes to the symbolic hunger games with the capitol’s children, she is intentionally misleading coin. katniss votes yes “for prim.”
coin’s pov: katniss said yes bc she still believes that snow killed her sister. good thing she doesn’t know it was me.
katniss’ pov: **already sending arrows through coin’s heart with her mind**
additionally, haymitch votes alongside katniss bc, while he may not know the specifics, he trusts katniss’ judgment and knows there must be a good reason. his vote made coin’s assassination possible and allowed katniss to end another war before it even started
I was obsessed with the book series and I remember being so let down by the last book. I never actually watched the movie so there truly is no better way to catch up than with Mr Microphone
I kind of dissociated while reading the last book, i felt the book's depression as well as my own and it was just deeply tragic and felt mentally foggy. Still wasn't as dismal as the third divergent book 🙅🏻♀️
@@monochromatic_melodramatic yes! Maybe let down is the wrong choice of words...it definitely isn't bad and as Mike said it does close out the plot pretty well but it's just so... depressing
@@marcellakilgarriff i keep thinking about what a departure it is to move on from Percy Jackson and Harry Potter books to young adult fiction like this where the stakes are so high, everything is so hard hitting it's almost real. The way they go from survival to escaping near death to hurting and traumatising each other and then what sort of holds everyone together is.. love. It almost makes the power of love in Harry Potter seem cheesy tbh. I kind of want to start reading Hunger Games again to understand why hordes of teens flocked to something so serious, maybe because we struggled with how layered our own psyches are.
I’ve heard this sentiment a lot and it’s very true. I recently read the third book and yeah, it’s very depressing. But unnecessary character deaths aside I think it was a great conclusion
I felt the same way but I re-read it and I actually liked it way more. I feel like I just didn't like/couldn't keep track of all the way more dark/political themes when I first read it
you're absolutely right about joanna and katniss. they would've been such a good couple
I hope he makes a review of ballad of the songbirds & snakes, when it comes out ! That will be iconic 😌
katniss did not deserve to live through 3 different hunger games in one lifetime 😭
I’m sorry can we have a moment for ‘fascist dumbledore’😭
The constant memeification of each scene in the movie that is happening in this video is sending me. Absolutely a new favorite piece of pop culture art from mr Michelangelo Microphone.
Peeta is forever end boy. Definitely my favorite
Honestly Miss Suz’s brain is truly saur big for coming up with the hunger gamification of the revolution like to bring the game maker girlies back in really did give us what we were all there for.
I love it every time mike describes brutalism without saying brutalism
Have you raised enough money yet to run your own Hunger Games?
Let's start the Kickstarter
That's just squid games babe
HOW IS IT BEEN YEARS AND ONLY NOW I REALISE THE PARALLELS BETWEEN CATO AND FINNICK.
- both were originally tributes katniss compete against in the game
- both technically have greater advantage of being favoured by sponsors in the game than katniss (cato by being from D1, finnick by being the charming victor with longer standing of reputation amongst the capitol citizens compared to katniss')
- both have their own star-crossed lovers storyline (cato developed a [seemingly] romantic relationship with clover during the 74th game; finnick has annie that he _fucking left_ less than 12 hours after their wedding to join the war lmfao fuck was he thinking)
- both got mauled by mutts so hardcore to the point of near dying
- both died at the hand of katniss, mercy killing them. even the framing of both instances are similar: them being on the lower ground, completely surrounded by mutts, writhing and screaming for help (though finnick's request for help was a more specific "kill me"), and katniss being on the higher ground when she has to deliver the killing blow.
Daaaaaaaaang. Still think they should have casted Cato as Peeta since Ludwig DID audition for Peeta
@@dimilton3166 honestly i can't see him as peeta, lol. but maybe that's because he plays the arrogant career tribute _so well._ also we need more short king love interest ngl.
the line "IF WE BURN YOU BURN WITH US" served so fucking hard!!!!!
also mike you're slaying the beatboxing game
I’ve been waiting for this one turn it up. Plus Stan Mike and agree with all of his opinions on Hunger Games
i didn’t think it would come bc he said he might not do it
Stan the Lizzo Tempo reference 👌
I think one of the most iconic parts of the Hunger Games franchise come from watching them all at midnight releases. My local theatre would marathon the previous films up to the release of the new one. It was so much fun. Mockingjay part 2 was BRUTAL in theatres. I miss being so excited for the next one to come out.
The way he kept calling Finnick and Anne husband and wife despite the fact they hadn’t gotten married yet (and their marriage was important to the plot 😭)
“District 12 is Lady Gaga VMAs 2009 Paparazzi performance in HD on RUclips it DOESNT EXIST” where else would I get commentary like this like honestly
I didn’t understand this reference, but he still made it work and I died laughing
Love it but wish they'd included Johanna's storyline. The actress playing her is so good (in this house we love Donnie Darko and we simply do not acknowledge the snoozefest that was Saved!), and I think she would have acted her tail off.
its so funny in retrospect that the hanging tree song was such a big thing in the movie fandom when they completely neglected to mention that music and singing were a huge part of her character in the books, to the point where peeta references seeing her singing when they were little being the first time he fell in love with her (it has been ages since ive seen these movies, so it is possible they mention this and im wrong)
8:26 “did I say stand there and look stupid NO I said BURN IT!!”
This is so serendipitous! My dad, an NYU film graduate, was just telling me over dinner that he was watching the Divergent series and how it was better than The Hunger Games series. When I tell you I was gagging, on the floor, fighting for my life. Gurl BYE- I could've throttled him. I then went on to talk about how much of a POS Ansel Elgort is and at least it wasn't Maze Runner at least we could agree there. Then I started ranting about the contagious mold that is Marvel Movie humor. But that's a story for another day. XOXO
I am down to hear that story on another day
Are you sure he's an NYU Film graduate??? Bc SIR
@Ali M. THATS WHAT IM SAYING!?! he's jaded for real 😭😭
LMFAO my dad has a dystopian ya fixation too and is an ardent divergent defender as well 😢😢 fighting for my life every time he brings it up cause there's never any competition w which is the real best series
Mockingjay was SAUR good i remember being absolutely devastated and proud of katniss when she killed Coin
the hunger games franchise has me in such a chokehold, the second I heard Katniss start singing hangin tree I started crying lmao and that's on being mentally unwell :)
I could give a ted talk on why the hunger games is the best young adult series of all time. My obsession is for life
