is it just me who's realised that when they were still under control by the capitol (first 3 movies, first 2 books) the mockingjay logo had the ring/circle around it... but when they broke free from the capitol the mockingjay was no longer in the ring and was flying freely.
Dang.. good eyes!
OMG your so smart
Well spotted!
In the book the pin is in a circle but it's like the logo in part 2 and gold.
Didn’t it break free from the ring at the end of the Catching Fire movie?!
MovieFlame do the " Life of Rue"
That would be short... 😮
Yasssss
Hanna Dam yasss
Yaaassss
Kiera Haggarty that’s what I was going to say
I feel like it’s ability to mimic sounds could be symbolism for katniss being a symbol of the people
It could it even symbolise how much like the mockingjay echo, the people also echo Katniss's ideas and wish for rebellion. And how, the capital will mimic their same mistakes and another rebellion, another dark age will arise. :O
That is deep stuff that both tal said
amazing analyzations!!
In the book, Rue called the mockingjays her
"Special friends"
Whenever I read that line I just shut down, I don't know what's wrong with me
And Katniss tried to give her the mockingjay pin because it " Means a lot more to you" But rue refused.
@Echellies - Because it is heartbreaking. ;-;
You feel. Nothing wrong with that virtue😌
@@vicky-hb8zz wow what if that would happen
KH Attire did you just call rue a loser
Also, Katniss mentions something about the Capitol underestimating the Jabberjays will to live. This was a symbol that capitol also underestimated about the rebels and Katniss. They thought it was Katniss will to live that her rebel spirit could not live up to.
Good one!
Not being mean. But I love how the first book came out 11 years ago. And he is still making videos about the hunger games. Love
Your videos by the way.
Moosehead 600 I agree
How is that mean?
yasss
Moosehead 600 what about Harry Potter?
GoGourt ya that to
The mockingjay was also the reason people realized District 13 still existed.
In all of the Capitol‘s reports from District 13, that claimed to be live, in one of the upper corners the wing of a mockingjay could be seen. Some people noticed and decided to go to District 13 to join the rebellion.
Katniss once met two of them in the forest on their way to 13, and then sees the wing herself in the next Capitol report, but for her it’s not enough evidence of District 13 existing and being a threat to the Capitol.
Shame those two didn’t make it…
just me that thought mocking jay was an actual bird lmao
Mocking bird
I did too
same
The mockingjays are.
Half real. Mockingjays are technically the descendants of the very real Mockingbird.
I remember when I got my dad to buy me the complete trilogy. We went to the mall after I went to a quiz bee. Catching Fire was still on theatres back then so we watched it.
After that, we went to a branch of the school supply store that I would always go to. There I saw the three books and I had my dad buy all three of 'em. I still have all three of them.
Sniff... I'm not crying you are
Xd
Wait so did you read the books first or watch the films?
Did u read the series
I got all 3 for my birthday a few days ago
Harry Potter fans : I want to go to Hogwarts!
Star wars fans : I want to be Jedi!
Hunger Games fans : We are good.
I am actually prepared incase the Hunger Games happens, and i do kinda wanna go...
@@thatbluejaybird i don't but at the same time do want to know how you prepared yourself
@@bird1697 I have a plan.
When in the Capital, in the training, train with knifes as they are most likely to be there.
In the Hunger Games, don't go to the Bloodbath.
Get a bag, and get out.
Hide.
Wait for everyone to die.
Don't have a fire.
Nah fam I volunteer as tribute
Dude my school has that
I'm pretty sure this didn't happen in the books but, in the movies, Katniss gives Prim the mockingjay to wear to the Reaping to 'protect her' she gets chosen but then Katniss volunteers. Katniss continues to protect Prim, that often being her sole motivation. The mockingjay didn't protect Prim from being chosen at the Reaping, Katniss did.
Except Katniss *is* the Mockingjay.
It happened in the movie
I never understand why they cut out Madge’s role.
Yeah same here.
i know! it’s so sad.
They cut her out of the movies because they didnt want to use movie time on a scene that didnt need to happen. They also didnt want to have to give screen time to Madge and to introduce her and take away time from other scenes. Hope this helped!
they probably couldn’t afford to hire another actress, esp since the first movie had a lower budget. also tbh it was a scene that could’ve easily been rewritten, so they did lol.
Never understand? Lmao it's either you're dumb or just fanatic
The reason why some things are confusing in the movie is because many things are said as thoughts like when Katniss remembers "Remember who the enemy is"
In the movie, Finnick says it instead because wouldn't it be weird if Katniss aimed her arrow and suddenly just put it down?
Sorry if it's kinda obvious 😅
*Tick Tock*
The mouse ran up the clock😢
katniss was the mockingjay because she "echoed" the districts thoughts (in reality, everyone projected onto her when she was just trying survive the whole time). but peeta is the jabberjay because he was "capitol created" and had a way w/ words, but still managed to survive and thrive when set free.
Thats some cool symbolism right there
The women who gave the pin to her should get more recognition because she was the one who basically started all of this. 😂😂
I'm pretty sure the mayor's daughter gave katniss the pin, which is some real irony, after the daughter of a government official unintentionally started the rebellion. XD
@@avocadoesd9463 Actually, that could make a lot of sense within the story. Most of the events that lead to The Capitol’s defeat were caused by their own actions, or the actions of those related to it.
@@avocadoesd9463 but the pin belonged to the mayor's sisters who was in the hunger games with haymitch. I dont think they'd support the capitol after having a family member pass from the hunger games
@@avocadoesd9463 her name is Madge. Get ur facts right
@@avocadoesd9463 Oh, it was very intentional XD. She probably didn't thought about total rebellion but she wanted Katniss to wear her aunt pin as a slap in the Capitol face 😏
Love this channel amazing editing skills and info. Keep up the good work!
Man i wish they would make more hunger games movies, there is so much more they could cover. So many games we haven't seen. To see Haymitchs life and his time in the arena would be great, not to forget all of the sick things the game makers come up with. Love your videos to mate keep it up.👍👍
Suzanne Collins knows how to use symbolism pretty damn well
After reading the prequel it’s clear why Snow hates them. It reminds him of Lucy Gray who was the only one left who could’ve ruined his life by declaring he killed the mayors daughter in district 12
Tbh I hate Lucy
@@elliebellieboo why though?
@@Andy-gu6ip uh- I don’t hate her that much anymore but uhm she basically tricked snow into loving her and manipulated him then just ran away
@@elliebellieboo ok
@@elliebellieboo Do you have a different opinion on this now that Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was released?
you're going places kid, been watching you since a couple k subs...you are unreal
Buddy you gotta make more Hunger games videos I swear.
The series has always been one of my classic ultimate favorites along with Harry Potter in middle school. Now that I'm heading to college, your videos reminded me just how much I loved the series.
Keep the videos coming bro. I keep re-listening to each of your videos while cleaning up the house and doing other things.
I started reading this series back in 2009 when my teacher recommended it to me during our dystopia unit freshman year. I fell in love. When I heard about the movies I got so excited that more people would discover and fall in love too. But I was so sad when they changed how she got the pin. I love your videos, keep up the awesome work!
That was an amazing explanation of the Mockingjay and it’s important meaning to the series! Definitely a must see for those who haven’t read the books and only watched the movies
Those four tones echo in my head even in the exams

Can't control it dude..😁🔫
Rue's??????
Why is this so relatable??
Thank you! Your content is amazing!!
“ A pretty loyal fan base , many who are possibly watching right now “
Me years after this video was posted: *suprised pikachu face*
a year *
Twilight has a loyal fan base too team Edward forever
Who would've thought a backfired creation had created a spark and symbol of hope and rebellion. I never noticed the meaning of the Mockingjays with the circle surrounding it until I see how the bird spreads its wings at the end of each films.
It’s always the smallest spark or the things we thing are least important that end up causing the biggest change.
read the percy jackson/heros of Olympus series
They're are good books but the fan base is scary
What makes the fans so scary?
Best freaking idea ever!!!!!
@@Klaus99999 Fanfics....
Kanha Playz the movies ruin Percy Jackson
I'm sure he did the fans proud by how he explained the mockingjay
Awesome video, as always! It's interesting knowing that Katniss's mother not only lost her husband, but had to watch her best friend lost to the games. This would've made her disassociation in the movies much more believable.
Thank you for the amazing video! I didnt realise that the Mockingjays had such a big meaning
you can see how on the book covers the bird is stuck in the pin Katniss wears. in my opinion, this shows how katniss is a behaving, though not so loyal citizen of panem. In cathing fire's cover, the mockingjay is more lifelike and looks like it is burning out of the pin. This shows how katniss is still trapped in the clutches of the capitol, but still rebels when she can. In the final book, the bird has broken its bonds and is flying freely (with pieces of the now broken ring/circle getting thrown about). This shows that she is done with the capitol and it fuels the actions she does in the book.
To me the MockingJay is a symbol of defiance, against authority and destiny due to how the JaberJays were meant to die but defied there destiny by pro-creating with Mocking birds
I love how the hunger games is old but he makes videos about the hunger games
I appreciate it cause I was so curious of the characters lives and the main thing about it
Came here after reading The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. Turned out, mockingjays have deeper impact on President Snow as mockingjays remind him of his first love who made him feel stupid and foolish.
That's her latest interpretation.
I felt while reading tbosas that there was no real reason to why he hated the mockingjays but loved the jabberjays it just seemed random
Excellent presentation! Thank You for this insight into the Mockingjay origins and your other videos about The Hunger Games for those of us who have not read the books!
So glad you’re doing hunger games again!
I remember reading the 3 books back in middle school for a class. It was crazy and amazing and seeing your videos brings me back nostalgia. Please do more hunger games videos
*great video, as always! Keep doing what you do! My hunger games IQ maybe increased by 70% 😂*
Love how this channel manage to give an interesting info and great editing skill! Keep up the good work✨🙏
I'm so happy there are still people who make videos over thg and don't think it's already over. Love from a true hunger games fan and, May The Odds Be Ever In Your Favour
Great video! I love your channel and videos especially on THG and HP! Thanks for giving me something interesting and calming to listen to 😍
I still get chills when katniss was spining around a wedding dress and transform into the mockingjay dress. It's so beautiful and cool I would wear it.
I watch your videos for a long time and im glad that you made video about mockingjay because it's the sign of the revolution. I am Hunger Games fan and i can't tell how much this means to me soo thank you!❤🙌
Maybe "The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes" will tell the origin story of jabberjays and mockingjays. The mockingjay is in the cover although it wasn't really a symbol of the rebellion at that time and it would explain the "Songbirds" part of the title. The book is set in the Dark Days, in which also the jabberjays and mockingjays were created.
Rise up
So the capital is England
And the district is the colonies
yES
Oh gosh.
It's The Hamilgames
And Katniss is not throwing away her shot.
Have I found my tribe?!?!
tigercloud128 oMFG THIS IS PERFECT WHAT
I mean most colonies left peacefully
tigercloud128 JUST YOU WAITTTTTT she might ùwú
Bro your voice is just amazing. Have you ever thought about making voice synchronisation of books?
Have you read divergent? I feel like your videos are so interesting I'd love to hear your videos on it!
Yeah!!
Because of this video, I now have inspiration for a new tattoo and new ideas for my book series! Thanks for your videos! They’ve helped with tattoo ideas and book series ideas!
Cool, what's it about?
Elizabeth Brawn
Okay I’ll try to sum it up as best as possible.
1. It’s a science fiction fantasy mix
2. There’s two planets. Planet decoree and maladee. The queen of maladee murderously usurped the throne of decoree and took over both planets. There’s 7 heroes from a prophecy to stop her. However, one of the heroes is the princess in line for the throne for decoree who is the true hero meant to stop her and separate and bring piece to both planets.
3. The decorines of planet decoree are a unique race with special powers, biology and more. Almost all of my decorine characters are half decorine half something else because decorines are really big on hybrid breeding. For example, there’s three human decorine hybrids, a werewolf, vampire decorine triple hybrid, and a Veela decorine hybrid.
5. The maladines of maladee are unique as well. With special powers and more. But their queen has brainwashed them into thinking decorines are bad. And yes, there’s going to be a romance between a decorine and a maladee that is like Romeo and Juliet. But don’t worry. They both live.
6. Each books will focus on each one of the seven heroes and their journey to becoming a hero. Each book with deal with touchy topics people have gone through. One of the hero’s is made a public sex slave by the queen (sexual abuse), one of the heroes loses her sister to suicide, one of them has no family, friends nothing. One of them is from a native indigenous tribe of planet decoree because the decorine emigrated over 1,000 years ago to decoree and the king peacefully integrated with the indigenous people.
Any questions?
Awesome video and work
pls keep making these!
your videos are amazing man.
Excellent background on how it all came to be!!! 👍👍👍
Excellent work
I’m in Japan and it’s 12:30 am but I like your video so I’m still up
Love your channel!!
Movie Flame do the life of Ron weasley
He already did the weaslys
@@tommy_g_9007
But when he does the life of a group of people he doesn't go super detailed about each person
@@goldenbacon1572 oh right
ruclips.net/video/cvcnxe-eePU/видео.html is a link on to the life of the weasly family
I love your vids about the hunger games thank you for the new vid
Love your videos all day😍
You need to make a back story of more characters! I really want a history of Rue, but that would be hard. I REALLY want you to do a backstory of Johanna!
always amazing content
Hey Movie Flame could you do more Harry Potter videos, I beat my teacher in a Harry Potter quiz thanks to you ;).Ps love the videos
I like how the mockingjay was an unintended consequence of the capitals actions and was later used against them, Just like Katniss. If the capitol had never sent her to the hunger games she wouldn’t have sparked such rebellion. She’s the one who inspired the most people to be free.
Love these videos 👌🏾❤️
Great Video!
Magnificent work.
explain maze runner stuff
Alpix Reich
Yeah that makes my head hurt please explain it
Alpix Reich yooo he should definitely cover maze runner
YES
I commented something like this on his district video
Great video man. 👍👍👍👍👍
You deserve so many more subscribers :)
I love your hunger game vids.
I literally had a conversation about the meaning of the mockingjays and the mockingjay pin with my friends today. This is creepy wow. Love the video!
Super cool analysis, very excellent series.
Because of the new book we know why Snow hated mockingjays so much
Great job
I love your videos so muchhh
Awesome video
Hey can u make a video on "All you need to know about wands" please.
As always an awesome video❤👍👌
But one request. .....if you CAN then please add subtitles
Again... the video was spectacular.....As always☺
I love these hunger games videos they are so good and interesting
I had no idea the bird had so much meaning
I love you videos and deep explanations of what made characters and symbols the way they are. Can you possibly do a video on Johanna and go into her back story? You mentioned Snow used stuff as leverage against her which she ignored, getting her family killed in his explanation? I would love to see more of that, if possible 💜💜
My week has been improved
Have you thought of doing a video on Effie? She wasn't as prominent in the books, as she was in the movie, but she was a great character! BTW, I love these videos that you make. I love the books and the movies, so I love the comparison.
Imagine a jabberjay flies in to your house and you ask what it heard and it just chirps and says
“ *man I don’t know, man. I have bad memory man.* “
I love these vids.
This is an incredible video
My favorite is when you do Hungar Games and Avatar : The last airbender
EXTREMELY LOYAL FANBASE! HUHU. ❤️❤️❤️
Some people see the the mocking jay have orange, red fire element but please do not confuse it with the "phoenix" which is another totally a different bird
There just both not the same :/
The tune off the Mockingjay reminds off a whistle off the morsecode tune for V that Resistance fighter used during WW2. It’s a long story, but basically it sounds like . . . - which sounds alot like the opening off one of Beethoven’s symphony’s.
Hey Movie Flame this is such a good video but I would really like it if you did a video about any Marvel Comics character's apart from capptain Fury who you have done a video about you can do one on Gamora, Thor, Tuchala e.t.c.
Thanks
My sister and I used 2 draw fan art of what mockingjay dresses wld look like along with wings attached 2 the dress. It was so much fun.
After reading The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, so many things make more sense in Mockingjay, and I applaud it! Even The Hanging Tree song!
AWSOME!!! JUST AMAZING!!!
Hey Morgan, would you ever consider doing videos on the Percy Jackson series? The books were amazing and the films did not do them justice! (Only 2 films but SO many books). I feel like its a series that does not get the recognition it deserves and you could do some seriously good videos about the characters and the actual myths and legends that the series stems from. They are a super easy read so if you fancy getting into something new and diving into a new world then I would highly recommend Percy Jackson! Just a thought :)
Another great video, please do life of Katniss and life of Gale
I just Recently became a Hunger games fan and didn’t know the meaning of the bird thanks it cleared a lot now I love the series even more thanks do that
I love these vids! Make the life of Rue or Katniss mom
Please can you explain the morphlings, like why they hide and what their district is like. I would love if you did this seen as their is pretty much no info about them in the movie.💙
Please do an updated version now that the new book is out ❤️
