Im curious to see how they are going to get show Snows narcissism on to the screen. In the book he always came across as charismatic and selfless. When his inner thoughts and intentions were self-serving. Even his "love" for whats her face was never real because it was always about what she could do for him. But we wont know what hes really thinking with out his thoughts for context 🤔
JeLaw killed it with her body language when interpreting Katniss' thoughts and feelings. Besides, at this point, we all know Snow is a psychopath.
@jumafaro Yes, I really don't think anyone could have done better for katniss!
That will be interesting, even I noticed throughout the book that Snow's "love" for Lucy Grey wasn't real, more like an infatuation, or the sort of parasocial relationships we can have today thanks to social media.
@aelinorholloway3669 right! Narcissist can't love because they don't have true empathy. Honestly the author must have known a few Narcissist in her day because she nailed it!
Yes, I wonder how Snow is going to be portrayed in the movies. With his “love” for Lucy, I noticed he wasn’t really in love, but in love with the idea of love set in mind, if that makes sense. He would always explain his actions towards her as “because I love her”, like he wasn’t convinced of how he truly feels and was making himself think he loved her. And I hated how when he realized that the peacekeepers didn’t know he had a hand in the rebellion move, he quickly went to trying to kill Lucy, which kinda makes her a means to an end for him.
Voila Davis giggling in the trailer will always give me chills because I know deep down she's gonna slay her role.
I’m glad I read the book before going to see this movie when it comes out, I’m so excited for Friday. I hope the film is just as amazing as the book was.
Most of the time it's not, but I have my hopes up lol
it was.
Hey Morgan, I just wanted to thank you for giving us in depth lore of universes of all these great books and movies for years! The work you put into this is amazing
Totally agree ❤
3:52 I mean, the age gap between the prince and snow white IS weird
I just binge watched the first four movies and forgot HOW GOOD they were and also the grip that the series had on me in middle school? So much of the imagery is daunting and there’s just so much depth in both the books and the movies and im glad it got a revival!
Dude i appreciate you so much you have no idea, your video “the entire timeline of coriolanus snow” is when i first found out about the prequel. That was two years ago and ever since then ive fallen back in love with the trilogy and been obsessed with tbosas and absolutely can’t wait to see the movie this week. Thank you for introducing the prequel so well!!!
i honestly think rachel KILLED it in this movie! she was given a couple cringe scenes and lines to work with, but she executed them very well! not to mention her singing voice is mind-blowing and so beautiful, and she radiated a very angelic, princessy aura. i think shes gonna do wonderful in snow white and I'm very excited to see it :)
Fun fact: the film was filmed really close to where I live, and as long time lover of the book series and movie franchise this was EVERYTHING to me 💞
Are you from Germany? Lebst du in der Nähe von Berlin?
@@beckyb1813
Ja genau. Du auch?
Ahhh, I thought it from Poland then, it was also filmed in Poland in Wroclaw (Breslau)
@@saracanariov1431 nee ich komm aus eienm kleinen Dorf in Baden Württemberg. Aber ich hab es auf sozial media gesehen.
I honestly can't wait to see the movie. I know it might not fully live up to the original movie trilogy when they did the original three books but i know it'll be a great movie nonetheless
It's promising because the person who did catching fire and all the mocking jay movies is doing this movie
@@A.jmmmm04 oh he is? Cool
Go see it. They did the book so much justice. It feels so refreshing
It was so good
I'm very intrigued and excited to see how they depict Panem in 'the past' as it were...like it'll be cool to see a sort of middle ground between now and the original series.
This was a really great recap from you! As a huge fan of the series (and loved Ballad so much), I cannot WAIT to see this book fully come to life on the big screen on Friday! I have been anticipating for this movie for the whole year (well, 3 years really from the moment I finished reading the book for the first time back when it was released). I’m going to see it in IMAX and it’s gonna be such an incredible experience! 😊❤️❤️
Aaand what do you think about the movie? What does anyone think who's seen it now? I've also watched it today 😊
I hope this movie does well so that we can get more films or shows in this universe.
Who's watching this AFTER watching the movie?

Checked this book out from the library almost a year ago. Found out afterward that a movie was almost done. The original books established at no one from 12 had ever won the games. That made it more suspenseful to read.
"Then he reads the list of past District 12 victors. In seventy-four years, we have had exactly two. Only one is still alive. Haymitch Abernathy." - The Hunger Games, Chapter 1
@@Nick-kz6dg I had no idea. Thanks! Been years since I read the original trilogy.
Another reason for missing this info could be that Dr. Gaul wanted to erase everything about the 10th Hunger Games
What about Haymitch?
@@Amily13Awesomeit wasn't erased. Its in the first chapter that there were two District 12 Victor's but only Haymitch was alive
You forgot to mention that the brilliant James Newton Howard, who did the score for all 4 movies, is returning for this one
Ive never been sure of weather im intrested in the book or not but the hype of the film release has got to me.
Also Oliva Rodrigo's song goes SO WELL with Lucy and Snow's relationship and even compared to Safe and Sound you can see the difference with her and katniss
I’m soooo excited to see this movie! Makes it even more special for me because it’s releasing on my birthday!!! So excited!! Also great video Morgan!
I'm seeing this on Friday and was literally hoping you would make this exact video, so thank you!!
I’m going to see the movie with a friend a week from today. I hope I like it even it likely won’t live up to with the original trilogy. And Snow seemed like a really nice guy who sadly became the dictator we know. Dr. Gaul has unmade him. Also, because I only know about Rachel Zegler now, I’m just going to ignore her Snow White roll and the drama surrounding it and focus on Lucy Gray instead. Once again, I’m looking forward to this film.
If u have read the book u will know that Snow was kinda never a nice guy tbh
@@cheekschu2152 oh I read the book. I just must be really naive if that’s the case.
@@cheekschu2152it’s so interesting because I felt sorry for Snow a couple different times in the book, and I had to basically slap myself in the face and remember who this guy ended up being.
He was an ambitious guy with formally „ok“ moral but became a monster becaus of his goals which have always been most important to him (regardless of the people he loved). That’s what he is. Getting together with the wrong persons made it worse…
He was never nice dear
I can’t wait to see this! I believe I’m going with my family on Saturday. The book was so good I’m so excited!!!
I am a new subscriber and i am gonna make my mom see the movie. This video was really interesting ♡
Your videos are amazing and i really love them since i am in a lot of book fandoms like hunger games, harry Potter, Percy Jackson and more
Watched it already!! And it’s one of the best prequel movie ever. Can’t even decide currently which is the better Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes or Catching Fire!!
Catching fire is one of my all time favourite books, so that's a high standard!
Finished the book last week and got tickets for the movie this weekend, I am so excited and can’t want for more depth in the live action movie!
It may not live up the original trilogy, but who knows? We may be pleasantly surprised. I can't wait to see what it's got to offer.
Personally, I wonder if the movie will provide any insight on Lucy Gray's connection to Katniss, if any, as well as her ambiguous fate in the books.
I love this book and I am so excited for the movie! I just haven't gotten over how it had to end. Even though I knew Snow would become the cruel president, I was still hoping for a happy end. Oh well, I'm still freaking out to see that movie
I actually read the book a couple times, and, while I think all the books were great, this was the best book of the lot. So looking forward to the movie.
Right?? Both this book AND the movie, feel much higher quality than the original trilogy
Rachel Zeglers Performance was amazing and as always great video
I’m so looking forward to your new Hunger Games content!
I just saw it... They made the wrong call not splitting it in two parts. It felt very rushed and very unemotional in most places. I feel like they failed to convey how much of a narcissistic ass snow already is, or why he already is that way (because of how traumatized he is from the dark days). In the book his love for tigris and his grandmother feels very shallow and more rooted in pride than anything like concern for their safety or wellbeing. The movie also failed to capture how creepy he got towards Lucy Grey in terms of feeling entitled to her + calling her his. In the book he legit says at one point that it was better when she was locked in the zoo at the capital than free in 12 because he knew who she was with and where she was. He wants to control her and you get the sense that she's something of a consolation prize to him.
Thanks, i’m sooo excited to see the movie 🎉
Almost done with my fifth reread and I cannot wait for the movie!
I can't wait to see you break down all the hunger games from movies like you did with harry potter.
I really don't understand all the hate around Rachel Zegler.... Like. She made a joke?? And it's not like there's much evidence to prove her wrong???? I just don't understand all the hate. She is incredibly talented and I'm so excited to see her in this movie and hear her sing the songs.
I totally agree with you! Rachel is great!
People are projecting their annoyance at "woke" movie advertising onto her, so end up excessively hating her for a few minutes of at most cringey but not necessarily malicious interview moments.
@@jessy1982 That's a good explanation, thanks. I loved Rachel in West Side Story, and I think the new film will be awesome, with her playing Lucy Gray Baird.
And by the way, I get sick of much of the so-called "woke" stuff around. But I don't really think Rachel is guilty of any of it.
@@Rick_King Yeah, something like the Cleopatra series was what I'd call "woke" revisionism.
Rachel thinking Snow White was a sketchy story of its time? ...so what?
You should watch this AFTER watching the movie. Most of this information is explained in the movie and it's better to digest it during the cinematice experience.
Im so excited for this friday!
I feel like the Rachel Zegler controversy may ruin the movies profit. I am very excited for this movie, as long as its good, I do not care about any controversy or crap.
for real. people need to not be childish and realize that there are many more people involved in this project than just her. i’m not a fan of her by far but i am a hunger games fan and i would like to see this project succeed.
Ppl r acting like she killed someone and then all she said was snow white is outdated lol
@@EmperorPiplupno she said way more then that. She was shit talking it then when people called her out she pulled the women and racism card as why we won't watch a movie that's getting ruined
That snitch in the back with reverse wings is putting me off haha. I have the same one
Did a re read as soon as it was announced absolutely loved the book! Can’t wait to see the movie!
Hello there I do so love your videos as they are greatly entertaining
Just seen it :( they rushed a lot- it’s strictly bullet points. But I loved the Lucy gray portrayal
yeah but not many ppl would like it to be 4hours or more, dear, they did the book a good service
thanks a lot, helped as im watching it tomorrow when it comes out~~~!
I’m actually going to see it with my sister when it comes out
i can’t wait for more hunger games!!!!
Just finished the book an hour ago and now I’m excited to see the movie !!
Super helpful thanks so much going to see it tonight!!! 😁👏👌
So exciting to have good sci fi movies come back
Can't wait to see this movie hope to see it next week with some friends of mine
Great vid, HUNGER GAMES!
Im a hugh fan of both the books and the films so im excited about it i hope we see snows first kill
just finished the book! super excited for the movie
Mockingjay didn't have to be broken into two movies. It was done so in order to compete and follow the lead of other mega franchises like Harry Potter and Twilight.
Oh my God I'm going to see it this Thursday with my best friend
Should be a crime that Tom Blyth made Snow so hot **tsk** 😭
I’m sooo excited for the new movie
This is going to be a great movie!
Can't wait to see it and hope it's as good as it looks👏
I hope this film makes $1 billion in theaters
Me who already knows all this yet still is dedicated to movie flame: (also excited to see it over the weekend!)
I’ll probably end up seeing this on streaming unless a friend really wants to see it
Also loved Viola in HTGAWM as well
I always wondered if Snow caused the death of Katniss's father. 🤷🏾♀️Great review thx u
I'll probably be seeing this movie once it gets put onto a streaming service that my family has access to
Piracy bro. Do piracy
tbh at one point I was asking myself if the movie was going to end or if it was gonna continue, and I thought the same thing at the very end, the movie was really good, I liked how they ended the movie, if they wanted to make another book or movie they could because they ended this one on a cliff hanger
After 1year+ of waiting, I’m finally in the theater now🎉
God the cast for flickerman is so fucking good
Ready to see it today.
Question. Will you make videos about Pirates of the Caribbean's characters' lives? Specifically, Will Turner, Jack Sparrow, Hector Barbossa, Joshamee Gibbs and Elizabeth Swann please?
You should also do a family tree for the Hunger Games, just like what you did with Harry Potter and Percy Jackson.
I’m pretty sure Tom was wearing a wig for some of the movie
So excited for Thursday
I'm going to watch the 3 pm screening with my brother
Josh river and Rachel actually have been dating for 2 years! 🙌
So are you going to do the Kane chronicles and Magnes chase and trials of Apollo soon? and could you also do Rick Riordan presents? as well?
I’m going to see it on Saturday I can’t wait
Beyond excited for this movie
The theater was full when I went
Great video
I’m so excited for this movie 🎉
Ziegler has a little “ see you next Tuesday attitude “ I will still see this movie, but in loyalty to the hunger game franchise
😂imagine canceling someone for telling the truth about a stalker 💀
So excited, gonna watch with my mom
Thank you so much!
I am so excited for this movie
I agree with the comments about Rachel Zagler who was a total idiot by trashing the original story of Snow White. However, she does seem like a talented actress and Lucy seems like a very interesting character. So I can't wait to watch it.
Y'all should blame the Studio for wanting to rewrite the new snow white movie they clearly found an issue with the original to completely change the new movie
@@EmperorPiplup Oh, I totally blame Disney for that.
I just watched the ballad of songbirds and snakes in the cinema, and I’m only just watching this after I’ve seen the movie
I've been rereading the book since last Wednesday and I'm almost done, I'm on chapter 26, I should finish it by tomorrow. I'm excited but also worried 'cause I've seen a lot of people saying that the film is rushed from the middle to the end, and I'm not hearing many positive things about Sejanus either (my favorite character after Snow). So, we'll see.
Sejanus was the kindest
Enjoy the end 😞
I loved Sejanus but he was annoying me. He made me so anxious because I felt like screaming at him. BOY STOP TALKING THWYR GONNA KILL YOU PLEASE BABY STOPPPO
@@nelonwa7754this happened to me when i read the book, i was always thinking SEJANUS, I UNDERSTAND YOUR FEELINGS BUT I'M PRETTY SURE NO ONE LIKES YOU IN THE CAPITAL AND THAT PEPOLE FROM DISTRICT 2 HATE YOU BECAUSE YOU WERE ABLE TO ESCAPE. DON'T DO STUPID THINGS
@@luciagianquitto4010 I know right. But he really is sweet. He's just so naive. The ppl there didn't get there by being nice. His father kept trying to tell him that. Try to toughen him up. But he was too short sighted to see that his screaming wouldn't do much but annoy this e with power who enjoyed the hunger games. DR. GAUL HELLOOOO.
He shd have just played the game, rised up the ranks then takedn down the whole structure. It was that simple. Even when he broke into the arena it was the biggest showing stupidity ever. I think that as far as Dr. GAUL was concerned he signed his death warrant then. She just needed him to do one more thing. Cuz breaking in just showed her who's side he was really on. And that does not bode well for the capitol if they have rebel sympathizers. It's like showing the districta they can penetrate the capitol and being it down from the inside.
And Sejanus is all talk little action. He thinks he's sneaky but he's bad at reading ppl, situations, observations etc. That's why coryo caught on.
I wish Taz from One Piece would have played Snow. It would have been great
Yes! I can see him as Snow. Unfortunately I don't have Netflix so I haven't see Netflix One Piece but for moments I've seen he would be good choice
Mind my grammar please
I’m going to see the movie with my wife once she finishes reading the book
It was an excellent movie!! Well done!
In case you didn’t know, Josh Andrés Rivera and Rachel are actually dating in real life!!
After she pretty much ignored him in West Side Story!
I would love to see Hunger Games and Percy Jackson characters made in the AI, just like what you did with the Harry Potter characters. This will be from the books and not the films.
Ooh, would love that!
Bro said the force awakens got good feedback 💀💀
I'm an so ready to see this I already have my ticket for the 17th
force awakens good feed back lolll
just watched the movie and im so happy. great movie
Francis Lawrence said he regrets splitting mockinjay in two parts
I've always thought the Hunger Games movies should be rated R. Mockingjay at least and this one should be R rated.
So excited
😆
I’m gonna watch the movie but I’m kinda disappointed that you didn’t go into Dr Gaul
Im just going to leave this instalment at reading the book.
I'll watch it when it comes out on demand and your thoughts about the film when it comes out.
There is a book that was made into a movie called The Giver read the book and then watch the movie.
