Spoilers for Catching fire of the Hunger games series, if u havent watched it dont read.
Rewatching the 2nd hunger games film, Catching Fire for the first time in a years here r my thoughts chronologically, & I've got a lot to say about this one:
- They actually show Katniss's PTSD, flashbacks and nightmares.
- Gale being a "nice guy", christ hes a an sh*tty
- watching them back to back, they recast the cat!!!
- Snow is a fabulous villain.
- CINNA š„°
- Caeser Flickerman's banger theme tune!
- The camera's interview is so awkward
- Effie deserved Katniss snapping at her on the train
- Peeta acknowledging that he cant hold her to wot they did to survive in the games! Peeta's already way above Gale. Peeta king š of communication.
- just asking each other their favourite colour is adorable
- The Mockingjay!
- Peeta offering to talk to make it easier for Katniss
- Peeta giving Thresh & Rue's families some of their winnings. Katniss's speech about Rue is beautiful, I'm sobbing
- I love district 11, f*ck the peace keepers!! That poor old man! Haymitch: Who's going to protect them!?
- Haymitch knows better than anyone that you never escape the games.
- Jennifer Lawrence is fabulous
- Haymitch cares about them so much, we love him.
- Katniss barely holding it together on the victory tour. She looked so horrified at the little girl saying she would volunteer just like Katniss did.
- Caeser Flickerman has no right to be so iconic.
- Peeta is amazing! I love him and Katniss
- Does Effie have to say Mahogany in every film?
- Peetas disgust at the Capitol compared to what people in the districts are going through.
- I love the politics of catching fire
- Seneca decided to stop breathing - Plutarch
- F*CK GALE!!!! SHE DOESNT HAVE TO LOVE U ROMANTICALLY FOR BOTH OF U TO SAVE UR FAMILIES!!!!! Gale's right about rebelling, but he isnt even trying to understand her trauma.
- I love the anti corporal punishment, pro riots/rebellion, f*ck the police message of catching fire
- Peeta without question helping to save Gale cos he's not selfish
- Prim being a great nurse!
- I don't think Katniss has ever had any romantic feeling for Gale, he's just her best friend at most, a lot of the time he's barely that, she would've thrown herself in front of that whip if it was anyone she remotely cared about.
- The trauma of all the victors. Haymitcch is right they're not winners, they're survivors. Nobody ever wins.
- Effie actually kinda realizing the games arent the honour shes been indoctrinated to think they are.
- Katniss didnt ghetto say goodbye to Prim š
- Finnick & Maggs!!! We love them.
- Finnick Odair š„°
- The Capitol is even more perfect in this one
- Johanna Mason is iconic and fabulous
- Wiress & Beetie r great
- Maggs is the sweetest
- Transition from Seneca Cranes hanging body to Caeser Flickerman's banging theme song!
- The Victor's interviews are very persuasive & interesting, they each show a lot about the characters
- Slay Johnnana!!! Make him pay for it
- The costumes in this one is a step up from the first.
- the fact she knows that Cinna is in danger for the Mockingjay dress
- Peter "We actually got married" Mellark, Peter "If it werent for the baby" Mellark
- All the Victor's holding hands in a show of unity
- CINNA š (Jennifer Lawrence was amazing in this scene)
- The arena is beautiful
- finnick: oh Sh*t Katniss might actually love Peeta.
- THE FOG ,, MAGGS!! šš
- Tick Tock The arenas a clock
- PEETA! JOHNANNA!
- bye bye district 12
I love this film, for me, it's my favourite in the series.
Haymitch and his ducklings
THE SCENARIO IF STANLEY DID HAVE THE COURAGE TO ASK FORD FOR HELP THAT TIME BEFORE HE GOES TO GRAVITY FALLS AND FORD IS SOMEHOW CONVINCED TO COME DOWN AND MAKE AMENDS????????????
the best way to clean your muse
(its still funny to do gif edits right?)
FAE STAN IS SUCH A COOL IDEA!! Ford, not even knowing his brother is a fae creature, going to the fae realm for research purposes or stumbling upon a faerie ring and BAM!! Stanās there! But he looks?? Wrong? His nose that used to be crooked was straight, his yellowed teeth were bone white, his skin was unblemished, years of acne scars wiped away, and suddenly Ford was staring at a distorted version of his twin. For just a second Ford thinks itās just a trick, but no fae would react the way Stan did by just seeing him, his perfect skin taking a deathly pale shade at the sight of Fordās face. His twin, itās seems, has a lot of explaining to do.
(Cut to Stan trying to trick Ford into making a deal with him, just for funsies.)
Sorry for the ramble, non-human Stan is one of my fav tropes!!
Oh man that's way less angsty than my idea.
In mine he drives off, then gets portaled into the fae realm as a failed changeling, since he didn't make it to 18 with his human family. Spends the next several days whiplash learning about fae stuff, making fae friends and enemies, meeting his equally terrible fae parents, then drives out of the fae realm with a bunch of stolen treasures, confident he can win his place back with his family.
Exits the fae realm in Gravity Falls by crashing into Fords cabin, because the 10 days Stan's been gone equals 10 years in the human realm, and now little fae Stan is here at the height of Ford paranoia, distraught about how much time has passed, and the fact that Ford doesn't believe he's him.
Oh hey buddy
stanās the type of guy in a pokemon vers to be like āi donāt like pokemon. i only keep them around for free laborā and then half of his pokemon are friendship evolutions. like okay sure. whereād that espeon come from then stan
heād also have a mimikyu. because like, cāmon. theyāre just like him fr fr. he calls it a creepy rag and says heās going to throw it out one day but we can all see you letting it sit on your shoulder and eat off your plate stan youāre not slick
characters have to be a little bit awful in ways that you cant defend. its good for the ecosystem. your honor he did do that. He did in fact do that
how are we still killing wlw in 2024 iwtv huh and during pride month no less this is a crime of immediate jail
Season 4 of Once Upon A Time is weird.
I Will be fighting the writers of the first half of season 4 in the Tesco's carpark at midnight. WTF were they thinking???? Bo Peep is a slave owning war mongerer????? Who BRANDS people?? ELSA????????? With Frozen accurate backstory???? Ingrid was okay but they DIDN'T NEED ELSA FIR THAT STORY TO WORK! It probably would've worked better without Elsa - and I dont dislike OUAT Elsa, but she didnt need to be there and it probably would've improved the season if she wasn't there.
Tho the queer villain throuple of Cruella, Ursula & Maleficent is very fun. And make the second half of season 4 a lot better than the first.
I have pretty mixed feelings about the author tho, like hes interesting in concept, and the execution isn't the worse, but it could be better.
Regina is perfect as always (I love her) (too much) (shes so pretty) (I'd let the evil queen kill me) (I wanna raise Henry with her and be her wife) (I cant tho) (so Emma & Regina should kiss) (but I do actually like Robin)
Robert Carlyle is amazing as Mr Gold and Rumple still.
I kinda hate Snow this season, she stole Maleficent's baby, cursed the baby & only regretted it upon realising it was human, hides things from Emma, shames Emma for her magic & considers letting Emma get rid of it, and more.
ok not to be petty on main but i have a pet peeve in a lot of gf fanfic where they describe mullet stan as thin to get the point of him being malnourished across.
and i'm sorry but have you LOOKED at this guy š
people can be fat AND malnourishedā¼ļøā¼ļøā¼ļø i'm so tired of the idea that your ribs have to be showing for your malnourishment to "count".
