The Hunger Games: Catching Fire in cinemas November 2013!

And welcome to the annual 75 (all most) Blog post! Since multiple trailers have been released for the upcoming sequel to The Hunger Games, I have been watching the trailers over and over again. I just can't contain my excitement for the upcoming film, which is the main reason for this blog post :

The Trailer:

Firstly I would like to mention that if you have not read the books, DO NOT WATCH ANY OF THE OTHER TRAILERS!!! (I'll add info about this later)!

Now (and I have read all the books) this trailer for me puts some great footage from the film with one or two important moments from the book to get you excited and enticed (if the name wasn't enough for you).

It's great to see some of the cast members, which might I add, fit the character descriptions so well it's unbelievable, president snow is given the perfect amount of time to really give you the impression they want of him. The music fit's (I personally think it could be better, especially towards the end but I've watched it at least 20 times now) and it wraps it up nicely leaving you begging for more .

Rant on other trailers (SPOILERS) people who have read books:

Why I'm Excited:

After reading the books, I'm just so excited. They have picked the cast perfectly for the film and it's all exactly as I imagined It would be. From the first film (which was excellent but not perfect) I just get a good feeling that they can continue and maybe even improve on what they have done. The second book hit me a lot more then the first, and I'm really hoping they can carry this onto the screen so that it really impacts the audience emotionally, as well as the book did. You can definitely see from the trailer that the set looks impeccable and some of the designs going on for the capitol clothes look exquisite, something even Rarity would be proud of!

But the film's about killing children !?!:

I know some people will not like it for this reason. It is gruesome. Initially I hated the first book/film when I first saw it, but I really feel like it holds a valuable lesson for us today. In many ways, the rich in the west do hold to ransom the rest of the world so we can get all our resources and have what ever we want at the cost of everyone else. It's a great film to watch just because it will make you think.

TLDR:

I hope I have managed to make you as excited as I am ! No doubt I will be reviewing it ASAP (providing that UNI life isn't putting me under much stress) when it comes out! I'm already planning the night I'm going to see it .

Thanks for reading ! Feel free to leave discussion and improvements in the comments !
