Hey everyone and thank you so much for joining Lewis and I as we delve in head frst into the world of The Hunger Games. We had heard so many amazing things about this that we had to give it a watch.
Yes, Lewis only looks about 3, this is because this was filmed over a year ago and he has had a little growth spout since then haha.
Katniss volunteers to replace her sister in a tournament that ends only when one participant remains. Pitted against contestants who have trained for this all their life, she has little to rely on.

Fun fact: In the books, those hounds had the faces of all the dead contestants for extra psychological damage lol
I'm glad they didn't do that in the movies because a dog with a human head would look so goofy it would take me right out of the intensity of the scene. Imagining it when I read the books just made me roll my eyes.
they didn’t have the faces, they had attributes. for example glimmer was described as blonde with green eyes, so there was a blonde hound with green eyes and a collar with a 1 on it for her district.
Just the eyes
@@serena959 I think it would still look goofy. There just wasn't enough time to have a dog with blonde curly hair to remind us of Glimmer or a red haired dog, etc. It just doesn't work for a movie.
@@luiscalzoncit2820nobody said curly hair, it still dog hair but blonde, its still a dog head but her eye color, nothing goofy about that
"Which tulip did she fall out of?" You have a magical way with language.
I knew this was an old reaction because you guys were on the sofa, but it was weird to hear Lewis' voice not changed all the way yet, lol. It'll be interesting to see him grow up in each movie, as we have on this channel. The second movie might be my favorite!
Dang! When was this reaction filmed? Lewis is an infant! 😂
Lmao about a year and a half ago...he's so small
I forget that he was so young when they started reacting together because he seems so grown up now! When Kev said how old Lewis was when this movie came out in theaters I almost had an actual heart attack 😂😂😂
So strange not hearing his deep voice here hahaha
When Haymitch says "Embrace the probability of your imminent death And know, in your heart, that there's nothing I can do to save you" just breaks my heart. The kids from the poor side of District 12 have to sign up for grain and oil to be able to survive. They need to sign up once for each member of their family and what it does is put the name of the child in the reaping for each time they sign up. So if a child has 3 other family members, the first year , they have their names in 5 times (4 times for the food + their regular entry). The following year, they have their names in 10 times (4 times for the food x2 years + 2 'regular' times.). The third year, they have their names in 15 times (4x3 years + 3 regular times). You get the picture. This is why Gale's name is in 42 times instead of just once per year, because he has 2 brothers, a sister and his mom. That means most of the chosen tributes come from "The seam" (The really poor part of the district). They are starving, they are small, they are tired, have no energy or muscle mass. No sponsor would take them on. So for the last 23 years, Haymitch watched 46 kids die because there was nothing he could do to save them. And then, he had to go back to the district, year after year, and face the families and loved ones of those 46 fallen tributes. For the last 23 years, he has to live with the memories of having failed to save those children. I don't even live in that world and I want to drink.
When he sees that Katniss and Peeta have heart, they have spunk, they have muscle mass, he sees that maybe, just maybe, there is a chance he could bring one of them back alive... no matter how slim that chance may be, and for the first time in 23 years, he has hope. Sorry, this is one of my favorite series of all time so I tend to get overly passionate.
I also can't help wondering if President Snow is Ned Stark's bastard
They were really good books! I read all 3 in 3 days, I couldn't put them down. Finnick is my favorite character though, he's just dynamic and fun. The third book destroyed me.
Ok…. Trivia time for you. Katniss missed her first shot when she was showing her talent to the judges because
1) Katniss’ father taught her how to make a bow and she has only used natural materials, like wood. She is used to it’s feel and balance.
2) The bows and arrows at the capital are made of metal. She didn’t practice with them because she was hiding her talent. When she did use it, it felt weird and had a different balance. It only took her one shot to get used to it, so she didn’t miss her next two shots. One that they didn’t pay attention to and the other at the Apple in the pigs mouth.
The capital makes up all kinds of things like the tracker jackets. Genetically engineered wasps. Mockingjays are a mix between Mocking Birds and Blue Jays, genetically engineered so that they can repeat sounds. They made and used them in the Great War. They would send the birds over the enemies camp, it would hear what they were saying, fly back to home base and repeat all of the enemies plans. After the war, there wasn’t any need for them anymore so they were allowed to be released freely. All of these things that the capital made are all called “mutts.” The dogs that chased and tried to kill they are the reconstituted remains of the fighters that have already been killed. The two black ones had collars on them with a dog tag with the number 11 on them. They were Thresh and Rue from District 11. The blonde dogs were from were the tributes from District 2. The red dog was the red headed girl from District 5, I believe… and so on. So to go up against these mutts is a double mind twist. They had already died. They were brought back in the shape of the dog but retained the memories and anger of the tribute. They also had facial features that reminded Katniss and Peeta of the dead tributes, so it was like having to kill them twice. They chose to use the black, generic dogs in the film because it could have been too disturbing for kids and young adults. And they didn’t want to get an R or a NC-17 rating from the ratings bureau.
Jaberjays and Mockingbirds not blue jays
I've been waiting for this series from y'all!!!! So excited for this journey :)
It's been an amazing ride and we are still on it! Great franchise
@@SofaandChill can’t wait to see the next reactions
The hounds at the end had a more psychological warfare aspect in the book. They wore district numbers in their collars, had human eyes & hair color that matched dead tributes. Some comments I've seen think it was the actual eyes of the dead but I think mutilating them (because it is implied when they collect the bodies they are returned to their families but don't think it's ever confirmed) would be too much for the districts & there would be too much of an uproar. Its perfectly plausible with the amount of crazy technology the capitol has they used various dna samples to flash clone the tributes if it wasn't just a straight replica.
Oh my gosh it's baby Lewis 😂😂❤❤❤
Haha I know right? So funny
@@SofaandChill it's so funny to hear such good jokes and interesting Insight come out of such a tiny little body 🤣 you and the missus have raised a great kid
Aaaw, RIP the late great Donald Sutherland!
The second one is great too, arguably the best of the whole series. You need to watch it!
gasped when I saw this notification!! can’t wait for this series! ❤
We started it quite a while ago sk really happy to be finally getting it uploaded on RUclips
This series is great! Touches real hardcore themes!
Yeah we have really enjoyed so far
I remember watching this in the theater on release day with my dad. Good times….
She had to basically sight the bow like you would a gun. You can be a great marksman with a gun but if you pick one up you've never used you don't know it's personal intricacies, how it pulls, how much the kick is, etc. Similar for a bow for Katniss.
I agree with this, totally. But I always interpreted Katniss's miss as being caused by Peeta's words right before her assessment (when he told her to shoot straight). She had never had to impress anybody with her skills before, and his words rattled her by reminding her of the stakes attached to her performance. I like your logic, too, though, because it would be weird to use a bow that is totally different from anything you're used to.
@@SamaraVeler Love this perspective ! It's not just logic though, in the book Katniss mentions that the Capitol's bow's bowstring is tighter and the bow overall lighter and more high tech than the ones her father made that she's used to.
When you turn 12 your name is entered once then if your family is starving you can collect a small amount of grain, oil, and a few other food basics but for each person in your family you need it for you need to enter your name again. Gale has like 5 younger siblings and a mother so he has his name in a lot and each year it increases so 12 it's once 13 twice and so on. Same for katness. It also causes resentment for the richer family in district 12 because while they have to enter their kids in the reaping they also don't have to put in for the extra food.
The Reaping is an annual tradition in Panem, where two children from each district are chosen for the Hunger Games. The number of times a child's name is entered in the Reaping increases by one each year from ages 12 to 18, making survival a cruel cycle.
The tesserae system in District 12 meant Katniss had to increase her entries in the Reaping to get food for her family. Tesserae is also cumulative, with five family members Gale's name was entered 32 times, an additional 7 for his years being of age to compete.
I hope you'll post the next one soon ! This is my favorite.
I just realized this is not a recent video! How many have you been hiding in the backlog Kev? I'll have ya for that, when the reactions are this good and films/shows I love! I know it's good for youtubers to have a backlog in case life gets busy, but man I nearly thought you invented the first time machine!
They can't step off those platforms in the beginning before the countdown cuz they will be blown up.
Also in the book Katnis refers to Peta as The Boy With The Bread. It was like, of everyone why him? Cuz her first priority is to survive no matter what and she can't fathom the idea of killing the boy with the bread who helped her.
I hope yall watching them all. Just love this movie so freaking great!! Love yall reaction to it cant wait for more
Why did she miss? It's an unfamiliar high-class bow that she's never used before. She's used to her less expensive one.
Omg I never realised Cato was Bjorn!!
I need to finish Vikings actually lol
In the movies, the leave out a lot of context about Haymitch. So this is not a spoiler and its very important to understanding Haymitch. He had a very traumatic life. He won the 50th games. He won in a similar way as Katniss. He embarrassed and showed up the game makers. They didn’t like that so Snow killed his girlfriend and entire family to punish him. Then he had to become a mentor. So every year they made him train these kids, get to know them, and then watch them get slaughtered. And there was nothing he could do to save them. This went on for 23 year so he watched 46 kids get murdered. So to protect himself he started trying to distance himself from the kids by being cold towards them. And he obviously became a drunk as well. It was his way of coping and trying to ease the pain. And i don’t blame him. I’d probably do the same if I’d been through what he’s been through. Once Katniss comes along he realizes she has a chance to win so he lets her in and starts trying again. She gives him hope.
Wasn't that the Hunger Games where it was double the number of tributes, as well?
@@AmandaLeighYAyes
i used to love these movies when I was a kid. This is the only franchise I like the movies better than the books tho. I was never a big fan of the books, we had all of them in my high school library but I couldn't finish them. Thanx for reacting to this. Hope you enjoy the other ones too. This one is my favorite tho.
Something important to remember when watching these is that Katniss lived in a way that they were constantly under threat of starvation or being killed because she hunts and trades. She didn’t have any space in her mind for romance. Gale didn’t even realize his feelings towards her until he saw her in the games. Peeta saved her with the bread even though he was beaten by his mother for it. That bread at that particular point in her life meant life, hope, and a future. He always loved her.
I always thought the age range of 12-18 was crazy. I mean, I was 6 foot at 12. but most other kids were tiny. No chance they'd ever win it.
That's why the youngest winner ever in the books was 14 (Finnick)
What does height have to do with anything 😭
@@pedrosalcido5028 Size and weight mean so much in fights... Literally the reason why there are weight classes in professional fighting.
@@vayull7163 yeah I get that but height doesn’t determine your weight
@@pedrosalcido5028 Not entirely, but it does scale alongside height. The taller you get, the heavier you weigh. A 6 foot 12 year old has way more of a chance against 18 year olds than an average height 12 year old. I just made a short comment brother, I'm not trying to write an essay comparing the effects of the biology of humans growth on the physics of various scenarios in a Hunger Games-esque arena in the comment section of a light hearted reaction video. I could, but I'm not going to.
Anyways join me in next weeks comment where I discuss hypertrophy and the perfect balance between aesthetic muscle and muscle for strength.
If you enjoyed this then you really should watch Battle Royal. The writer of Hunger Games has never admitted it but it's very hard to argue that Hunger Games wasn't very heavily inspired by Battle Royal. I've always compared it to being like Hunger Games is the Disney remake of Battle Royal.
Apart from children having to kill each other, they are very different...
When will We Were Soldiers make it to youtube
Yay!
Apparently Peeta found a full kit professional special effects face paints and a mirror in one of those loot bags, which he knew how to use from frosting cakes in impovershed district 12 (I bet they order tons of realistic forest cakes for massive celebrations all the time 🙄), like that's a transferrable skill. That plot point has always been weak as hell. So weak it would make more sense if Peeta was divinely granted his painting skills.
In the books, Peeta is a great painter.
@@ptitepeluche05Right…and Peeta came from the part of district 12 that was not quite as poor as the rest. His family had a bakery and therefore more access to things that other people might not have access to, I.e. “luxury” items like paint.
It's very distopian but district 12 is just like some towns in West Virginia unfortunately. Very run down, dirty, some buildings and houses don't have running water. Old, old families way back when living on nothing, and pass down their generational poverty. Sad
The writing of the Hunger Games books was inspired because one day, the author was watching TV and was switching channels back and forth between a competitive reality TV show and the war in Afghanistan. At one point, what she was watching got so blurred in her head that she couldn't tell the difference between the programs.
I might be dead wrong, but from my understanding, that reality TV show that the author was watching was Survivor Cook Islands. The very same exact Survivor season my brother, Billy Garcia, was a contestant on back in 2006.
📺👀🤔➡️📝📚
18:00 It's because of the bow she used. Katniss is used to a handmade wooden bow not the metal one the gamemakers had for training.
Don't know why you're starting another book franchise without finishing Harry Potter, you said you were going to watch Fantasitc Beasts and the HP Reunion. Hope you don't forget those. But nice to see Hunger Games on the channel as well.
RIP Donald Sutherland
1935 - 2024
All the districts are poor, district 13 was destroyed for rebelling. The capital has some poverty but are tasked with not looking it.
Where is this poverty in the capital?
@@hiymecorp.258 See the last movie and watch closely
lol When you say that is dystopian. NO, that is country living when you are poor. lol
I grew up in a rural area & no the government wasnt forcing us to stay in a containment area
Please🙏🤦♀️ STOP calling her "CatNip''🙀😹😂🤣!!!
Yikes
Because of The Hunger Games we got Minecraft Hunger Game servers then half a decade to a decade later we got Battle Royale games, Minecraft did it right while Battle Royale games quickly ruined the trend.
LOL, we got Battle Royal games because of Battle Royal, which predates Hunger Games by 12 years.
@@ringod123people saw how well Minecraft survival games was doing and decided to make a battle royal game.
The survival games has 100 players and so does every other major battle royal games. Those games would have not existed if it wasn’t for the hunger games.
Things that are in the book but were never mentioned in the movie;
Each district specializes in certain vocations. For example, District 12, where Katniss comes from, is a mining district. Her father died in a mining accident, and as a result, her mother goes into a severe massive clinical depression where she no longer could take care of her daughters and herself. That is why Katniss was starving, and why Peeta threw the bread to her.
When a person wins the Hunger Games that person not only wins a lot of money but they win a huge expensive house (located in the Victor's village in their district) and they also win food for their entire district.
Prior to Katniss and Peeta, Haymitch was the only living winner of district 12. It was very rare for anyone from district 12 to win the Hunger Games.
There is a lot more, but I won't say it so as not to spoil anything for the next Hunger Games movie that you will be watching.
The in book Peeta's leg injury meant he lost his leg but it was replaced by the capitol technology with a mechanical one. I think it's better for the shows pacing in the end because Katniss & Peeta are separated as they recuperate and only see each other at the interview with Caesar. Opening up another surprise that late in the film vs it wrap up more quickly have it more of a disoriented whirlwind feeling to put you in the shoes of Katniss & Peeta which I think works better for the film version. I'm sure a mechanical leg still isn't as good as a real one but the level of tech in this world is so great, I always took the loss as not necessarily that big a deal. Other comments I've seen say it doesn't give context for why Peeta isn't as good at various things in the next book, but I have no memory of it every being called out explicity or obvious in context that any situation in the next book came off as "yep def cause he haa a fake leg". If I remember correctly it really is barely mentioned again & doesn't affect the plot beyond Katniss knowing how much Peeta lost & that weighing on her.
Slinky 😂 pretty sure it's wire, can make snares & traps, tie off things, trip someone, etc
now we know Kev watched Vikings! such a good show!! 💛
So glad you finally got this to RUclips. I can see it took awhile. Your son has 2 kids by now right😂😂😂😂Thanks💕
I'm convinced Lewis is Benjamin Button at this point lol.
Hey they filmed this near me in NC! Such a great film series I’ll always love 😊
Wow, that's so cool Sandra. I wad gojng to say nothing gets filmed around me then I remember Harry Potter lol.
@@SofaandChill Hey that’s even cooler!
Woody Harrelson’s dad may have been a serial killer, but that’s never been solved. One of the reasons watching Natural Born Killers is so interesting. Spoookkyy.
Yeah, they intervene, they kill trubutes (the dogs killed Thresh from Rue's district). The games are intended to show everyone the power of the capital. Not only can they execute your children, they can make your children kill each other. The games were never meant to be fair.
They also contribute to animosity between the districts, and there is also restricted communication between the districts to avoid them coming together and forming a more powerful revolution. When Katniss tried to protect Rue and then honoured her body she made a big difference in potentially bridging ties and showing comaraderie between districts.
Great reaction, I can't wait for the next!
I've said this in the past, but it's always true: Donald Sutherland (RIP) made a really good villain as President Snow. It's kind of the same paradox with Imelda Staunton/Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter: a delightful actor playing such a vile, despicable character.
Also....RIP Rue.
She did not deserve the fate she was given.
❤ Bjorn
"They're gonna be mad." Can't wait to see your reaction to the second film! It's my favorite in the franchise.
I shall have it out very soon 😊
11:09 we’re just gunna casually brush past that?? 💀
lmao
Hated the reaction. Good luck!
Cheers mate, appreciate the comment!
I still got a few more years to wait before I can show my daughter these films, but I can't wait!
Too much commentary, not enough video.
Copyright unfortunately Gary mate, really annoys us too
The capitol city represents the affluent, psychotic, and disconnected from reality side of society, which is embodied in the left.
The districts have been trampled on by the citizens of the capitol city, forced into submission, censored, starved and sacrificed for the entertainment of the government; this represents the political right side of society.
Its starkly ironic that the narrative of the story is so blatanly obvious, yet still gets overlooked by the majority of affluent people in the world. Oblivious to the obvious.
Did you ever saw Twilight saga? 🤔 I would love to see your reaction! It could be sooo interesting to see two age groups react at once 🤔😉✌️
Haven't watched it yet no...we do have it though :)
@@SofaandChill That will be awesome!!! I will subscribe so I do not miss it 😜✌️ Thanks 😉🫶
@@SaakooDine No problem atv all :)
Happy that you guys had a great time. Come visit us more. You're always welcome ❤
48:19 "Fun" Fact that I don't think is really brought up in the movies, just the books:
The Hunger Games that Haymitch won, were the 50th, aka the Second Quarter Quell (learned from the comments that you've already watched the rest, so I know this isn't a Spoiler xD) and the specialty of that one, was that it had DOUBLE the Tributes, so Haymitch didn't have to survive against 23 other people, but 47... There is actually a great Fan Movie about it ^^
It’s not explained in the movie of course but that was Katniss’s first time picking up and using a bow at the Capitol. She is more used to wooden or handmade bows instead of the fancy metal ones that the Capitol had. So she wasn’t used to it and that’s why she missed the first shot.
The primary thing you need to know about her as a protagonist is that she’s a stubborn loner. She isn’t particularly friendly, especially to people in the Capitol, who she despises. It’s not in her nature to try to try to be a likable celebrity and frankly, considering the Capitol is to blame for her and her people’s suffering, a good impression being made on her oppressors is the last thing on her agenda lol.
Those dogs in the finally are so much more disturbing in the books. As well as Kato’s death.
In the book, the author does a better job of explaining why tributes from the same district rarely team up together other than the career tributes from districts 1 & 2. If a tribute killed or caused the death their fellow tribute, then their families and even potentially themselves would have to live out their lives confronted on a daily basis with the family of the tribute who they killed or caused their death.
Great reaction guys. Can’t wait for you to watch the entire series. It’s my favourite series of all time. The books are incredible too.
The Gamemakers can use the arena against tributes. It’s just a reminder who is really in control. It’s a tv show. They are putting on an experience for the audience otherwise tributes could just hide for the entire thing. Using the fire, the dogs or changing the night/daytime is to force the fight between the tributes
first time seeing you guys, love this dynamic. usually for reactions we see couples/ friends/siblings react but father son duo is too cute lol💕
waiiiiiit the movie can't have come out when I was 10 years old, NO way 😅🤣🤣
cool idea for a premise
12:35 He did not deserve that 😭
In the book Rues district send Katnis some bread. It doesn’t sound like a lot but it would have cost them a fortune. 🤍
