When I heard this as a book, I thought it was going to be the story of Haymitch. Then I learned that it was going to be Snow's story and I lost interest. BUT Viola Davis! Like, I would only want to be an actress to experience her greatness and learn from her. She's truly legendary to me. She's so beautiful, so talented, such a presence every time she's on my screen. Like, she made me watch Suicide Squad. HER POWER!

Ohhh the call back to the Mockingjay poster with Snow.

I'm really hyped for this movie. Although I still maintain that they need to start emphasizing how much music is going to play a role to minimize the "Hunger Games: The Musical" monikers in reviews.

I'm rereading it; I like Snow's portions. Lucy's country belle act is a bit grating.

I really hope the movie plays up Lucy being manipulative and smart, and doesn't try to portray her as just genuinely twee and innocent. The book got a lot better for me when I started reading her actions as manipulative, just like Snow, but for obviously different reasons.

ive been getting so many rachel zegler's hate videos recommend on yt. i guess she's the current incels biggest enemy for some reason? and no matter how many times i use don't recommend this channel again or im not interested i keep getting them

It's annoying and very obvious what they're trying to do.

[beigemediocrity]

It went beyond incels. She alienated so many people after her Snow White comments and she kind of became a laughing stock now

[queenursula]

It’s a manufactured controversy from the people who do YouTube videos about Brie Larson and complain about how things are “woke”.
