Talkie Tuesday: Catching Fire

 

"Nobody ever wins the Games."

 
Hello everyone!
 
With this blog post I will finally have every single movie of this franchise written up and reviewed on the blog. This is an exciting day!
 
Well, exciting in the sense that this is one mission accomplished at least, if nothing else.
 
The one thing that usually bugs me to no end is when I have to sort of hit pause midway through, but I didn't even realize that I only had the last two movies for this one.
 
In any event, we are now headed into the sequel of last week's blog choice.
 
As you may have noticed, I've fallen into the dystopian future reading hole at the moment, as I'm also debating maybe reading Divergent again at some point or other, but for the most part I wanted to see whether or not I would still dislike this trilogy as much as I did back then.
 
Turns out I don't. I actually really like it.
 
That doesn't mean Catching Fire is the best movie ever, but it IS good!

Tome Thursday: Catching Fire

 
Hello everyone!
 
And welcome back to the insanity that is getting chosen to fight in a gladiator-style arena with 23 other people so that some other people are entertained.

I'm back with part two of the Hunger Games saga this week to check on Katniss Everdeen and what's been going on in her life.

Because you know it'll be insane, simply because if can be.

See when you live in such a dystopian world that children get picked from a crowd and their parents don't really have the moxy to stop it from happening, you know it's a different level of messed up, and by different I mean completely different.

So you thought you'd seen it all in book one? Well I have news for you my friends.

The crazy is only just beginning.

Katniss is back, and while I can't say she's better than ever, at the very least she's here and hasn't succumbed to drink or anything like that.

Catching Fire takes us one step closer to the grand finale, so here we go!
