Rewatching the 1st hunger games film for the first time in a years r my thoughts chronologically:
- I forgot how amazing Jennifer Lawrence is as Katniss!
- Effie is even more oblivion to the tone of the hunger games than I remembered
- I forgot how iconic the volunteer scene is.
- Effie genuinely believes it's worth it for the kids to die if they get to experience a little Capitol opulence
- tHAt iS MAhOgaNy!!
- They captured the Capitol so well!
- I love Cinna, they captured him perfectly.
- Caeser Flickerman's commentary is a fabulous addition.
- Rue's introduction scene is perfect.
- when Katniss says "hey" in training centre, peeta's eyes light up
- the scene where haymitch is watching Capitol children pretend to be part of the Hunger games captures how desensitized they are really well.
- Seneca Crance doesn't fully understand the politics of why the games exist the way they do.
- Caeser Flickerman's song is such a banger!!!
- Peeta "She came here with me" Mellark
- Katniss looking at the bow at the cornucopia, Peeta: Katniss no!, Katniss: Katniss yes!!
- Haymitch seeing Katniss hurt so having to charm Capitol sponsors even tho he hates doing it. °○°
- Rue 💖❤💖
- Rue 😭😭😭😭
- I love that while Katniss is the Mockingjay, it's Rue's death & the unity between them that sparks the riot in District 11.
- Thresh saving Katniss for Rue 🥰
- Haymitch warning Katniss the Capitol isnt happy with how they won means so much more when u know cos of the way he won his family was killed.
- aww Peeta genuinely believes Katniss in the Caeser flickerman interview. Poor boy
- President Snow is piiisssed
- this credits song slaps
This did not turn out how i planned. I got bored so i quickly had to finish it before i forget about it.
I cant stand the music anymore
I love how when Armand is in love, truly in love, like he is with Daniel, he just becomes manic and feral. Stalking! (lovingly) he stalks him all across the world and is just there in the corner of Daniel's eye. Armand becomes obsessed with kitchen appliances and, because he doesn't feel like he'll be judged, does batshit wild things with them. Cooking rats and roaches and making weird blended concoctions based on color. Armand is like, "Daniel let's call Paris. The phone is fascinating. You are fascinating. Technology is fascinating. I'll pay, don't worry. Call Paris for me, pretty please." Like, is he insane? Yes. But at the same time after seeing his subdued approach to his perfectly manicured life with Louis, it'll be refreshing to see the gremlin completely out to play with Daniel.
“Why should rich people pay more” because fuck ‘em
“So you are okay for paying more when you have money” I am not excluded from ‘fuck ‘em’ when relevant
the fact, that so many Christians and Christianity-influenced fans of Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica see Homura as a villain honestly reveals a lot about what is wrong with the faith, media literacy and the general attitude towards mental illness.
On one hand you have aliens seemingly devoid of any moral system at all, acting purely out of self-interest while pretending to work towards some grand utilitarian goal the results of which will never be experienced by the people affected by the system they created. The Incubators literally rip souls out of children and turn them into a physical object, so that it can store more energy than it took to create it and explode, releasing all of it so that the aliens can then collect the surplus they're after. The psychological effects of that are shown to be equivalent to a perpetual psychotic breakdown shattering the personhood of the victim, dooming them to years of torment that cannot be escaped by any means other than being killed by a magical girl.
On the other hand you have a desperate struggle to protect a sweet lesbian bean girl too devoid of self-worth not to sacrificially throw herself away at the first occasion, time after time after time until it turns out that even a complete rewrite of the universe won't achieve anything permanent unless the Incubators are completely and utterly defeated for good. You have a drastic measure meant to prevent a reactionary takedown of Madoka's universe, taken right after experiencing the aforementioned breakdown.
And then you have imagery of a God and a Devil superimposed on top, contrasting the traits of the characters in a way that should have made it clear the symbolism isn't used in a standard Christian way at all.
But it doesn't matter, because there's so much more discourse on Homura being supposedly in the wrong and evil, accusing her of psychopathy while the actual low empathy villains are doing horrible things for reasons completely unrelated to lack of empathy anyway.
There's a lot of examples of bias, poor media literacy and broken discourse, but this one really bothers us a lot on a personal level and we don't even have a single fictive from the show
I hope that the upcoming movie manages to handle the mismatch between the actual politics of the franchise and its image, but honestly it's gonna be one hell of a job in this climate
