Hunger Games Trilogy discussion

How does the movie compare? How is it different? The same?

The movie did the Capitol perfectly.
NoMadge, no Avoxes, the relationships were not well developed.

No Madge????? That's not right!

Yeaaa

Just out of curiosity, what did the Capitol look like?

Big, outrageous, superficial, hilarious, modern, stylish

Perfect.

Nice.

While watching the trailer a while back, I realized that the guy at the reaping was President Snow...in my opinion, he looks too much like Santa Claus to be an evil mastermind of sorts. :)

I saw them too, but to anyone who hadnt read the book, they weren't anything at all. And there was no 'redheaded' avox

But for a movie it's hard to get everything in it. They did a good job considering it was a hard movie to pull off and they had a budget too...

Yes, it was reeeeeeaaaaaalllly good.

i agree, the capitol was captured amazingly, yet the movie didnt show the deep,heartfilled sorrow of when rue had died. i feel like this was bcuz the movie didnt do as good of a job of displaying details as the book did, also i feel as if they screwed up some of the sad moments for later movies, like how the movie didnt include madge.
so i would have to conclude that the book was better than the movie

Definitely...I would have been so surprised if they could actually make the movie better though.

In a way, it sometimes seems like they took out the important details (like Madge or Lavinia) to add in all the extras that the book didn't need to make it good.

I loved loved loved the books, the books are always better than the movies in every case

Almost. :)
