    The first Hunger Games movie was an absolute smash hit and helped (along with X-Men: First Class) skyrocket Jennifer Lawrence to superstardom. So it only made sense that Hollywood would want to adapt the other two Hunger Games books, Catching Fire and Mockingjay, into movies as well. Three of them. That math checks out, right?
    The Hunger Games sequels do raise some questions though. Like why is Snow flaunting around the victors at the risk of a revolution if silencing them would be more effective? Why is Katniss suddenly obsessed with Peeta? Is Mockingjay Part 1 just about how bad of an actress Katniss Everdeen is? Was President Snow’s big strategy to have an underfed prisoner try to strangle Katniss? How did the Capitol not think of guarding the tunnels that run through the entire underground of the city? Why do the middle two movies just kind of end abruptly?
    To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to The Hunger Games Sequels! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

      @@janusceasar7851 yeah in the book it doesn't have the same peacefull feel to it. Katniss is locked up and atempts suicide. She was suicidal and going insane so she paid almost no attention to what is going on. That means she didnt really have a perspective on what was going on wich didn't allow us to see the chaos.
      It is sure that powerful people in that climate like plurtach and haymitch had to clean that mess up but we don't see exactly what happened. While kantiss is reluctant to judge what is going on the elected president seems to be someone more believable to do good. Katniss is still reluctant to believe any good can happen for the most part so tge ending is a little bittersweet

      in order to convince snow that he is the guy for the job and he will prevail where previous guy has failed .
      plutarch is actually a tragic figure - he trades his own soul and humanity for a greater good .
      needless to say the idea was not expanded upon and was poorly executed , they could have done more with it .

      You meant that the Hunger games stretched 3 books into 4 movies. Technically the first 2 books were each a movie and only the last book was stretched two movies, just like Harry Potter... well no not just like Harry Potter because it was completely justified for Harry Potter because of how long the book was and how much content was in it that would have sucked to remove so much of it to fit into just 1 movie. While the hunger games was absolutely 100% a cash grab, as the book was as thin as a DVD case, there was no excuse to make the 3rd book into two movies (other than to make more money)... they could have easily easily kept the last book to 1 movie.

    • @ilincabogza
      @ilincabogza 3 года назад +20

      Ok i know this might be obnoxious but i have two theories: one - we can see that while peeta is brainwashed he is also overal unhiged, and even if he only goes of when it comes to katniss, he is still for the most part visibly deranged, wich takes months of work to lessen. Then, the brainwashing works only for making the human be deeply scared of even the mention of a thing, wich sends them into frenzy, wich only seeming deranged. It would only work with a smaller dose of venom, but then again the comviction behind that subject would lessen too. Why does the way the would come off matter? Beacause they are already the symbol. If people can tell that those words aren't geniune they wouldn't be able to control or influence the masses.
      Second- they need their submission shown in another way. They parade them around the districts for a preventive way to subside the rioting, but they need more then just to dominate katniss and peeta. They are already the symbol, and people already where waiting for a spark to flare up the rebelion. Them being quiet wouln't stop it. So they needed to make their defeat crushing, to erase all types of hope, for it to be a punnishment, a lesson. Basically the whole point of them being sent back in the arena was to show the people that they can never will. That way it's far morr valuable and more impactfull. They want them dead and for them to be once again a symbol, this time one of doomed try and of what happens when you resist to the Capitol. That's why they "saved them up" for those games. And why they saw that as the impirtant thing. Of course, they didn't forsee the ending of that try....

      At least Marvel and Star Wars movies don't tend to finish on cliffhangers. Even though they're part of a larger narrative, each film is resolved. For example, if Infinity War ended with Thanos arriving in Wakanda, that would be equivalent. However, he gets the stones and completes his quest, that's the resolution.
      If anything, the 2nd Hobbit film is the best equivalent example. The resolution of the 2nd film was the start of the 3rd film.

    “Storming the Capitol is tight” yeah that definitely aged well 😂😂😂 I’ve been waiting for this video forever, but I’m almost glad we got it later rather than sooner, cause it gave the opportunity to make that joke 😂😂😂

    Hey Ryan! Love this series, I've probably binged 50+ episodes in the past week... woopsie!
    I'd love to see a Pitch Meeting for the universally revered modern classic Sahara (2005), ft. Matthew McConaughey, Steve Zahn, and Penelope Cruz. I think it could make for an awesome episode.
    Thanks for doing what you do!
