- The last 30 minutes of this movie almost put me in a mental institution! I had ALL THE EMOTIONS! Why couldn't Prim be a chef or something instead of a freakin' medic. I can't believe District 13 AND Gale's involvement with the tom foolery. I am happy Katniss and Peeta got a happy ending though, so at least there is that... a great ending to Katniss' journey through Hunger Games BUT we will be checking out The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes next! So be sure you're sticking around to see that! Until then, Much love!

Zegler with it.. hell no..
I can’t even put into words how much I hated this story. They did their best acting out some garbage but it’s still garbage.
@@josevladimiraustria2736she did great stfu
@@josevladimiraustria2736oh get over it. Did she really do anything that bad? Leave the girl be. She’s allowed to say something stupid once in a while.
Unlike the other people I love that movie, with all its faults. I love the “fall” of Coriolanus Snow, the tragedy, and the romance (they cut too many kisses and it kills me bc they were adorable for their short time together).
Also, without spoiling, I do believe Snow is capable of love and friendship just chooses power instead.
Katniss voted yes "for Prim" - and at that point she knew Coin was responsible, not only for the bombing but for Prim being there at all. Prim was 14, she would have had to have special dispensation from Coin to be on the front lines. So she said yes so she wouldn't make Coin suspicious. Also note Haymitch doesn't say yes specifically, he says "I'm with the mockingjay." He figured she had something in mind, so he wasn't agreeing with the games, just going along with whatever Katniss was planning.
Thank you for clearing that up! I was shocked Katniss was willing to move forward with that one but that makes more sense. Glad Haymitch was a ride or die until the end!
@@TheDorkSideTV "Here i am, waying my options. Then i say, I vote yes, for Prim!" .... Now its up to Haymitch..."I look at him, now is the time to see if he understands me, now we will see, how truely alike we are."
The letter that Haymitch read from Plutarch was intended to be a scene with Phillip Seymour Hoffman, but he died before the film was finished. It was very fitting for Haymitch to be the stand-in.
Katniss knew what she was doing when she voted yes for the hunger games. Note that Haymitch didn’t vote yes technically. He said he was with the Mockingjay. He trusted Katniss. ❤❤ Haymitch is one of my favorites!
I wish we had more Haymitch!!! He was also one of my favorites.
And rip to Philip Seymour Hoffman. He was truly a great actor.
@@TheDorkSideTVobviously death is hard to work around, but I would’ve loved seeing how Hoffman would’ve acted this scene
Yeah but I REALLY believe that Prim getting un-alived was SUPER un necessary to the outcome of the ending the war and Hunger Games 😢😢😢 RIP Prim :,(@TheDorkSideTV
@@16taysia it was one last cruelty for her... fitting it was all Gale's fault... good riddance, Gale
@@16taysiait was very VERY much important! because this whole story began when the capitol tried to sacrifice prim. and her death then showed how they are just another malicious regime that just has a different name. coin is just the other side of the metaphorical coin to snow. her death tied this entire story up neatly. even if it was horrible.
In the book, Katniss is a total mess after coming home, not eating or showering. She only gets herself together once Peeta comes home and she sees that her state is worrying him so she starts living again. Also, the first scene in The Hunger Games was her talking to Gale about never having kids because the world isn't safe. The last scene with her family tells us the revolution worked and the world was good enough for her to want children. I always loved that touch.
Could totally understand her not wanting to have children.
True, I’m so glad Peeta came back and helped her heal while she helped him heal as well❤
The hates of this guy towards Gale is sending me. I mean who wouldn't hate that guy.
Lol true
😂 I dunno. I hate Gale, but this dude almost makes me want to defend him. Gale’s enough of an ass without the stuff this guy is making up about him 😅
The “GREAT plan BeEtEe, 🤚🏽 nobody heard what you said gAlE” had me dead 😂😂
In the books its more clear, while hunting Gale was always very good with traps while Katniss was good with the bow and arrow, so Gale started to work with district 13 to design bombs and traps, and one of that he shows katniss has this kind of trap to "attract people in", so must likely the ideia of the bomb that killed Prim came from Gale.
Adds more weight to Gale's comment about hunting animals and killing people being the same thing. Katniss got to learn the difference during the games while it took Prim dying for Gale to realise
Ahhhh that makes a lot of sense! I was confused on his involvement but that is a good explanation. Thank you for watching along and sharing your expertise!
@@TheDorkSideTV I'm pretty sure there is still a scene in the movie where Gale and Beetee talk about bombs that explode in stages, so the second wave takes out all the medics. Katniss comments on it, she makes it clear she disagrees with Gale.
@AnnekeOosterink yes, but I get it that people could miss that hint from a first watch
@@TheDorkSideTV you're welcome, I'm excited to see your reaction on The ballad of songbirds and snakes!!
Katniss knew she was going to kill Coin from the moment she said yes. When she says yes she says "for Prim". Katniss knows that Prim would never approve of the new hunger games, but instead the "for Prim" was more so saying that she would end the violence and also seek revenge for the reason Prim was dead (Coin)
One thing they don't really explain is that Prim was too young to be in the middle of the fighting. Yes, she was training as a medic but she's still just 14, "someone high up" (Coin) had to authorize her to be there. And she did it specifically so Prim would be killed and Katniss would be unhinged. Katniss says "yes" at the meeting to make Coin think her plan worked. Thus Coin lets down her guard when Katniss has the arrow. Also Haymitch figures out she is up to something. They did not really vote yes to another Games.
In the book, Plutarch is there when Katniss is released from jail for assassinating the President. In the film it is just Haymitch and he reads a letter from Plutarch. This is because the Philip Seymour Hoffman died and wasn't able to be in the scene. Katniss did everything Plutarch wanted her to, but Katniss is still a bit leery of him because his plan allowed for so many deaths. He goes on to produce a singing competition show and Katniss refuses to be on it.
“you hate gale… real or not real?”🤣🤣🤣lmfao, so glad you got to experience this film series and cant wait for you to react to ballad, to see the background of snow and the hunger games in general! ❤️❤️
RIP to our boy Finnick and lovely sweet Prim.
Peeta planting primrose in the garden at the end always gets me… he really is the best ❤
We love Peeta in this comment section ❤❤❤
He is! 😭 Best boy in the entire history of human fiction.
Quote from the book during the real or not real moment:
"On the night I feel that thing again, the hunger that overtook me on the beach, I know this would have happened anyway. That what I need to survive is not Gale's fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that."
It was always going to be Peeta. He gives her the hope and security she needs to survive.
Also a quote from Catching Fire:
"As I drift off, I try to imagine that world, somewhere in the future, with no Games, no Capitol. A place like the meadow in the song I sang to Rue as she died. Where Peeta’s child could be safe."
Really puts the ending with thier two kids into perspective.
Every reactor has this quoted in their comments and for good reasons. It's incredible. It's a great way to end the series
The first paragraph 😍😍
Katniss was playing Coin at the table. Haymitch knew that Katness didn’t trust Coin so he voted with her to help her.
20:47 Snow petulantly muttering "plucked" was my favorite part of this film.
I know you're already Team Peeta from the start but how Katniss "chose" in the books really gets me 😭
"What I need to survive is not Gale’s fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that."
That’s beautiful! I might have to read through these books once I get a chance! Thank you for sharing and watching along with me ❤️🙏
@@TheDorkSideTVyou should totally read the books, they’re amazing!
You: How much worse can it be? What more can The Capital throw at us?
Me: GOOD, SIR! I need you to stop setting yourself up for pain😢😅
"...Snow turned her into a cat?....what a demented bastard" 😂😂😂
I thoroughly enjoy your reactions.
Prim's death was intended from the very beginning. The point of it was to show the pointlessness of war. Everything was done FOR Prim. Katniss went to the games for Prim, risked her life with the blast doors to save Prim, and she still died. It never fails to break my heart on every rewatch.
My god. It doesn't matter how many times I see the scene with katniss and buttercup. It crushes my soul each time. She fucking kills this scene.
So,in the books, the tension between Coin and Katniss was ongoing long before the Capitol assault, which is one of the reasons Katniss snuck out to the Capitol to begin with. Gale was backing her up, trying to prove to her that he was still on her side because they were having a lot of differences mostly due to his more militant take on fighting the Capitol.
Gale didn't personally have anything to do with the bomb that killed Prim, but he and Beedee did design the concept of bombing a place, wait for the support personnel (medics and the like) to come in, and then blow up another bomb. Now, in their scenario, the support personnel would have been CAPITOL citizens; Gale wouldn't have blown up fellow rebels.
The book makes Katniss's intentions more clear. When talking to Snow, she did not believe him at first that the bombs weren't from the Capitol; after all, they were delivered in Hunger Games sponsor parachutes by a Capitol hovercraft. But he explained to her that a lot of Peacekeepers' kids were among the refugees, and when the bombs went off killing Capitol kids, the last of Snow's support evaporated and his own guards turned on him. Katniss still didn't believe him, but the more she thought about it, the more it made sense.
And then there was the fact that Prim should NOT have been among those District 13 medics. Yes, she was being trained, but only 13 years old, she was considered too young to be on the front lines. The only reason she was there and the only way she could be there was _if she had special permission from Coin._ And that was when Katniss realized Coin did this and she did it to destroy Katniss and completely demoralize and weaken her. She saw Katniss as a threat to her power, and just like when she sent a mentally unstable Peeta to the Capitol in the hopes that he would kill Katniss, she sent Prim to the front lines so she could be a victim of the bombings. (In the book, they actually spend like 3 days in the Capitol to carry out their assault, which was plenty of time for Coin to realize Katniss was still alive after Snow had declared her dead and to come up with her plan.)
So, by the time they got to that round table meeting about Coin declaring herself president and wanting to hold another Hunger Games, Katniss had already made up her mind that this woman needed to be taken out. Katniss had not died in the assault on the Capitol, so Coin didn't want to risk an election because Katniss might back someone else, so she just _decides_ to be president. Then she suggests sending Capitol kids into an area for a new Hunger Games. Katniss could see the writing on the wall.
She says in the book, _Here's where I find out just how well Haymitch and I know each other_ because the two of them are exchanging looks. If she votes yes for another games, Haymitch will be the tie breaker. And he can tell she has a plan up her sleeve, so he votes with her.
Katniss planned all along to kill Coin instead of Snow; that's why she added the nightlock pill to her uniform before she left the room.
If I’m not mistaken, Tigress’s physical appearance was based off of Jocelyn Wildenstein. A real life socialite who was pressured by her ex-husband to look more like a cat with plastic surgery.
I never knew that!
Peeta and I grow back together. There are still moments when he clutches the back of a chair and hangs on until the flashbacks are over. I wake screaming from nightmares of mutts and lost children. But his arms are there to comfort me. And eventually his lips. On the night I feel that thing again, the hunger that overtook me on the beach, I know this would have happened anyway. That what I need to survive is not Gale's fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that.
So after, when he whispers, “You love me. Real or not real?”
I tell him, “Real.
I love them so much❤❤❤❤
Keep in mind that the prequel movie doesn't have Snows inner dialogue like the book has so he comes across better than he actually is since it's difficult to put inner dialogue in a movie without narration or something.
Deaths that always make me cry: Rue, Finnick, and Prim. I ugly cry for Prim. Katniss tried so hard to save her. Snow was such an interesting villain, he always had respect for Katniss even if they were enemies. Coin was even worse in the books. She had Katniss’ (and Peeta’s, if I’m not mistaken) prep team interrogated/tortured because she suspected they were Capitol “spies.” Effie wasn’t in the last book, at all. I honestly prefer the film for that reason. Her character arc was so good. And I live for the Gale haterade 😂❤
Peeta's prep team and his stylist, Portia, were executed by Snow when Peeta was captured by the Capitol.
@@ptitepeluche05 Oh that’s right I forgot 😭 Thank you
It was hard to imagine anyone being worse than President Snow at first, but enter President Coin in the book AND movies of Mockingjay. Between Donald Sutherland and Julianne Moore, they both play amazing villains. I'm kind of in the same mindset of a lot of the fandom that Gale is partially to blame for what happened to Primrose, since he came up with the idea for the firebombs that got dropped on the crowd. And it's all so heartbreaking when Katniss returns to 12 and starts shouting at the top of her lungs at the cat after Primrose's death, then fully broke down in tears, since she never got to properly grieve.
I love the ending when we see Katniss and Peeta with their kids.
The ending >>>>>>>>> ❤
@@rachelrosenstein9975 the kinda funny thing is: Katniss & Peeta's kids are Jennifer Lawrence's nephews in real life.
The actor who played Plutarch (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) died before the end of the movie so they had Haymitch read a letter to Katniss instead.
The 2 kids at the end are Jennifer Lawrence's sister's children.
It is a great story. Glad you got through the 4 films.
It's her brother's children. JLaw doesn't have a sister, she has 2 brothers.
In a way I think it actually works better coming from Haymich, who Katniss and the audience trusts.
"Goodbye, Gale." 💅🏻✨👑
When you watch Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes just remember that Snow might think he's a 'Peeta' 😇 but his character shows himself as more of a 'Gale' 😈.
So Snow has always sucked, huh? 😂 I am very interested on how they are going to frame his character in the movie for sure. I hope they don’t make me like him somehow lol
Unfortunately, the film deviates from the text in some critical moments that makes it clear that it's trying to make us like Snow. I really wish they hadn't done that: it's ok to have your villain be unsavory. You're pretty perceptive, though: I don't think you'll fall for it.
Honestly, the only time I ever thought of Peeta when reading Songbirds and Snakes is that had to remind myself that not all the boys from from District 12 were the boys the bread whenever Jessup got any attention.
What bad thing did Gale do that we compare him to Snow?
@@olavihekandjo2928the first thing that comes to mind is his entitlement of Katniss. The same way Coryo felt entitled of Lucy Gray.
I know others have probably talked about her but I will too. Tigress is Snow’s cousin. She was a designer for the games. She got the modifications and tattoos to look the way she does and that is why Snow says she is not pretty enough any more.
Implying that he could no longer sell her 😢
Was her character in the newest movie?
@@ct6852yes she was
@@ct6852 yes. She lives with Snow and their grandma, and does all the alterations and tailoring for his clothes so he looks spruced up without them spending money they did not have. It is implied that she has to sell herself to earn money for some items for him to wear too.
I forget whether the movies go into the details of Gale's life after the Quarter Quell. Everyone who survived Twelve survived because of him. He got as many people as he could out. They got to Thirteen, and Gale threw himself into being a rebel, like he'd been dying to for years. He really found his niche with Beetee. It turned into a quasi-apprenticeship. There were many, many horrible things about the districts, but one of them was how specialized they were. Twelve was coal mining, and while there were trade opportunities that allowed citizens of Twelve to support themselves-why Peeta's family could be bakers-citizens of the districts weren't really given the opportunity to educate themselves in highly specialized fields outside the specialties of their districts. Gale found he had a real knack for technology and engineering. He had started to develop weapons and bombs for Thirteen with Beetee. Katniss asks whether Gale was responsible for Prim because she had seen him developing a dual-detonation bomb with Beetee. Gale didn't choose to adapt his technology the way it was or to send it down on Capital civilians. But he most likely designed the original tech that was used in the bombs that killed Prim.
You will have seen why Katniss and Haymitch voted "yes" to another Hunger Games in other comments by now, or seemed to. In the book it is one of Katniss's only lucid moments in the middle of a total mental breakdown, hiding in corners, singing to herself, avoiding everyone. It's how they're able to get her off for the murder, pleading insanity. She wants to kill Coin and die. I love that Peeta stops her. He's been there-feeling like he's lost everything, out of his mind, and wanting to end it all. He came back from that, and now Katniss has to. He will protect her from herself, like she protected him from himself all through the Capital.
Nice series of reactions.
Love this comment. Very well said /explained.
"I'd make a stupid face so they can't recognize me"
LMFAO okay, Vigilante😂
(MAX's ❤Peacemaker❤ reference)
I think ultimately Peeta was the true embodiment of peace in love. He didn't want to kill, didn't want to harm, or exploit, or manipulate...wasn't overly concerned with revenge. Katniss recognized that he was the only real way forward out of the nightmare of their predicament and shitty lives. That's why she loved him. It was about loyalty.
Peeta was the heart and soul of these movies for sure. That’s why it was so interesting that they brainwashed him and made him a weapon. I’m very happy with his arc throughout
Interestingly enough, Peeta represents hope to Katniss. He's always been a figure a hope since the day he tossed her the bread. When she's broken down, she realizes he is the only one who's able to bring her back some happiness. The same way, Katniss is to Panem the mockingjay, or the hope. Katniss is the heroine who saves the world. Peeta is the hero who saves the heroine.
@@marcosrodrigues2499 Oh HE tossed her the bread...that's right. Kept thinking he was the one out in the rain and she fed him.
For that, and also, because she was attracted to him from the beginning but not just physically also by him and who he is. Because she realized that he was as good as he showed everyone. That he truly was the boy with the bread. When she kisses him in the grotto in the first game, and then on the beach in the quarter quell it's clear even if she doesn't understand yet.
That's what Katniss says about those two kisses : "This is the first kiss where I actually feel stirring inside my chest. Warm and curious.
This is the first kiss that makes me want another."
"But there was only one kiss that made me feel something stir deep inside. Only one that made me want more. But my head wound started bleeding and he made me lie down. This time, there is nothing but us to interrupt us. And after a few attempts, Peeta gives up on talking. The sensation inside me grows warmer and spreads out from my chest, down through my body, out along my arms and legs, to the tips of my being. Instead of satisfying me, the kisses have the opposite effect, of making my need greater. I thought I was something of an expert on hunger, but this is an entirely new kind."
It was always Peeta. Clearly. The only reason she wasn't sure, is because she didn't knew what it was, and they were in a war and she was not thinking about love, plus Gale made her feel guilty numerous times for no reasons !!! But since that first kiss... She knew without knowing that it was Peeta. I always thought that, never changed my mind about it. Because of those thoughts she has when kissing him.
@@Sytrylt Actually not sure I know what a grotto is. Lol. They kissed in the first movie? Was that toward the end?
The line that always gives me goosebumps there at the end: "There are much worse games to play"
This series is really one of a kind ♥
The sisters acted like they were the troops, that Katniss was with them, to draw the fire of the Capital. Brave thing to do.
Unsung heroes for sure ❤
I full on sobbed when Prim died, she was my favorite and didn't deserve this end. I'm so glad you enjoyed the series and enjoyed rewatching it with you!
Prim was so good and pure like Rue. She deserved so much better 😢
You know, I really like seeing those warm tones at the end. After all this time lf washed out colors and grim setring where the only source of warmth is in an arrificial death arena. Seeing the colors blush bright and sweet marks the birth of new life built upon sacrifice. Remarkable indeed
I’m glad you got to watch along with me my friend! The warm tones definitely end this movie on a great note after all their sacrifice.
The warm tones came back right along with Peeta, showing he brought light and happiness into Katniss’s life❤
"Stay with me" .... "Always" *me sobbing* lol. Also, "You love me, real or not real?" "Real". Oof this has some beautiful lines in it. I'm sad to see our Katniss/Panem journey end. But I think I'll check out your Harry Potter videos next
Sobbing right along with ya, they’re so precious ❤❤
"Goodbye, Gale"
*everyone liked that*
Katniss only agreed on the symbolic Hunger Games to make Coin drop her guard and let Katniss do the execution so she can execute Coin instead. 😂
The epilogue was 15+ years after the revolution.
Haha you couldn't leave this one for long, I see! Great reaction as always, Cole! Last stop on the Gale hate train. 😂
Had to get this one out asap lmaooo! Thanks for watching along with me and always being a bright light in the dork side fam ❤️🙏 The Gale Hate train never stops though 😤
I really think for Katniss's District 2 monologue, Susan Collins should've added, "And I killed Marvel, because he killed Rue, because I killed Glimmer."
Aww it’s always bittersweet to get to the ending of The Hunger Games series. I love this series so much & I’ve really enjoyed your reactions to it. Can’t wait for the prequel to come.
I remember reading the books & being so shocked Prim died. Like she’d always be left out from the conflict… that her life never seemed in danger except when she’s called at the reaping in the beginning which sets of the whole chain of events. Then having her in the middle of a war & her becoming a casualty of it… just completely left me speechless. Did not see it coming at all. Didn’t see her death also being a consequence of Gale’s battle plan either.
After everything Katniss had been through the save her sister only to lose her anyway just shattered my heart into pieces for her. And she lost her friendship with Gale because how could you ever look at him the same way again after it was his idea that killed her sister? Just wow. Incredible writing though.
But we got our boy Peeta back. The final paragraph in the books in one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever read in my life & it perfectly explains why Katniss was always going to end up with Peeta. You have to check it out one day!
That final paragraph in the book is everything ❤
In the book, Katniss grieved for a very long time. Then one day Peeta was there and they grieved together for all those they had lost. Katniss never wanted kids even after the revolution ended but Peeta did. She relented and I think she was happy she did. Jennifer Lawrence acted the hell out of that last scene. You could see how haunted she was even after all of that time. Also, those were Lawrence's niece and nephew who played Katniss and Peeta's kids at the end.
Suzanne Collins, the author of the Hunger Games just announced there will be another prequel released. It will be the book where Haymitch wins the Hunger Games. There will also be a movie.
Very excited to hear about the Haymitch book! I hope it is amazing!!
“Peeta and I grow back together. There are still moments when he clutches the back of a chair and hangs on until the flashbacks are over. I wake screaming from nightmares of mutts and lost children.

You are literally the best. The gale hate was top notch😌. Thank you.😊
Awww shucks! Thank you!! Gale is one of those characters that I just have to roast so I’m glad you loved it. Thanks for the love and watching along with me ❤️🙏
The ending is amazing with Peeta and Katniss finally finding peace and having a wonderful life with each other with their two little kids🧡💚 fun fact: while in the movie the boy is older than the girl, in the book their daughter is actually older than their son. She’s described to have Katniss’s hair and Peeta’s eyes and their son is described to have Peeta’s hair and Katniss’s eyes❤️
yes, that was a nightlock pill and peeta stopped her from taking it.
That ending gets me every time. 😭 There's no erasing all the pain and trauma they've gone through, but just allowing them to live their lives in peace is the happiest ending the story could have.
And fuck Gale. You know he wouldn't have planted a single primrose!
44:58 their daughter's name is Willow and their son's name is Rye. At least according to Suzanne Collins. 🧡💚
Thanks for yet another great review. You have the best review videos I have seen🧡💚
The hearts representing Peeta 🧡 and Katniss 💚
And where did she say that?
One of the changes from the books that bothers me the most is how Katniss gets to the front lines. You commented on several bits that don't make sense, all of which stem from that change: you mentioned that you thought Johanna would want to go too, you pointed out that it was dangerous for Katniss, and that she should be covering her face since she's so recognizable. Yes, yes, and yes. That would be because they changed it from the books where Katniss did not sneak over there in secret. I won't go on about it too much, but it was one of my favorite plots from the books which saw Katniss and Johanna asking to join the troops heading to the Capitol and being told by Coin they could, but only if they passed the trainings and tests that every other soldier took. They end up rooming together and training together and Katniss passes but Johanna doesn't, so Katniss gets to go and Johanna has to stay back. I would recommend reading or listening to the books because a lot of great plots like that got cut.
Real awesome. Glad you enjoyed The Hunger Games!
It was depressing at times, but absolutely worth it! Katniss is a badass
In the books they explain that the capital could only manipulate memories of Peetas that they saw, ergo wherever there were cameras and specifically in the games. The significance of the “always” moment that melts me to my core is that it was a memory that happened between the two of them while laying in bed, the discussion of favorite colors was done without cameras present and all of the other stuff she tells him is stuff that the capital wouldn’t have known to manipulate. It was memories that couldn’t be foggy because there was nothing for them to fog up. And that’s what makes my heart soar at the always scene, he remembered a pure moment of love, care, and vulnerability for a woman he was convinced was out to kill him. I love the portrayal of Katniss and Peeta on screen but boy in the books they are one of the best ships to be created and I would die on that hill.
Dude I’ve been in bed sick with a gnarly fever for the past 3 days. It’s been amazing binging your videos while resting up. Hopefully back to work soon. Thank you for the entertainment my man. I appreciate you giving me something to do
god no matter how many times i watch this movie the cat scene at the end breaks me, reading the book for the first time as a damn 11 year old scarred for me life 😂 in a good way tho
I'm def ready to cry with you
i think the ending of part two (and th third book) could not feel more earned. in the books, katniss has a specific passage talking about how she could never have kids or be a mother knowing she lives on a world where they will suffer what she did. she's someone who lobes to care for people, and yet she would never be a parent BECAUSE she knows that bringing a kid to the world she grew up in would be nothing short of cruel.
this ending tells beautifully that she now sees the world as a place safe enough to have a family, and to finally just live.
and like Boggs said: she has earned it.
Definitely
I always cry when she says " there is worst games to play"
Oh my god I just finished Mockingjay part 1 video, perfect timing 🤩
I Uploaded right in time for you! ❤️ I hope you loved the reactions!
After all these years I still believe that the Hunger Games realistically portrays PTSD and the emotional aspect of finding peace as one of the best. The nightmares, the screams, the feeling of almost being completely numb and knowing you won't receive justice. It perfectly portrays the sheer horror in the eyes of Katniss and Peeta. Its the same look I've seen a hundred times before as a medic in the Gaza Strip and Mosul in 2014 and 2017. That look of pure despair when people lose family members but also the look of pure hope after reuniting with their loved ones, after we pulled them out of the rubble. The grey area where you see good people become bad people after their home is bombed by foreign countries. To either retaliate or find peace. This series bring that aspect forward really well. I met multiple women like Katniss and Prim in my life even men like Peeta and some of them died. I was invited to eat with their families. I've received gifts from their families and even flowers from children. Its hard to find out that you sometimes shared a meal with people that died shortly after. The pain becomes so agonizing that every memory, every image and even smell causes you too break down, to the point it feels almost impossible to eat, drink and even stand up. I like that in the ending of Mockingjay, we see them gardening, sitting in a field and listening to the rain. I do that as well in order to supress my memories. As dystopian as their society might seem, its not far off from the truth. After a while you realize that our politicians (Snow and Coin in their world) use Hollywood, the mass media and even games as a means to justify the chaos they have created over there. That they use it to invade countries, assasinate leaders, steal natural resources and not give back profits to locals, even classify documents of airstrike reports and vilify refugees. In most ficitional movies, there is also an element of truth. That's why I like the Hunger Games. For me its closer to the reality I've witnessed than it is to fiction. They did a great job in portraying those emotions and like you said "the cost of this" sometimes you have to experience an enormous amount of bad moments in order to know what its really like to experience the feeling of peace and safety.
Cesar was a propaganda pusher it’s hard to know how he really thinks/feels but yeah he’s definitely a Capital guy.
What if the newly announced book is from his viewpoint? Can't wait.
@@katiesmith2447 it would be interesting. Maybe he’s a victim of The Capitol & his indifference is just a coping mechanism 💁🏽♀️
I love the quote saying why she picks peeta in the end
That what I need to survive is not Gale's fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again. And only Peeta can give me that.
They’re perfect 💚🧡💚🧡
I enjoyed watching you watch this series so much! Love how you can use humor but also be serious and recognize the significance and importance of the plot
The fact you actively engage with your following did it for me. SUBBED
Thank you so much and welcome to the Dork Side family! I love our community and talking movies with passionate fans, so part of the fun is talking with you and the homies. The channel wouldn’t work without the dork side fam being here
Love your reaction on the whole series. Can’t wait for you to see the prequel.😂❤
you want to know how i know i have taste for toxic men? i was team gale and team jacob when i was a teenager 😂
Good you aren’t anymore😂
In the books joanna actually did try to go to the capital with katniss. They were both weak and injured but together they trained and planned to go together. Unfortunately she freaked out in a test because of PTSD and ended up being held back. Joanna had a bigger part of the story that was cut out for the movies.
I hope you watch the Prequel. It's not a very good adaptation (they try to make us feel that Snow BECOME evil, while in the book it's clear that he was always purely evil) but at the same time it's nice to watch, see how things were before Snow
I have not watched the movie, but I read the book. I did not get the vibes that Snow was always evil. Would you like to open it a bit more? Sincere question. Though I understand if you do not want to, or cant because of spoilers.
@@thor3562 basically in the books you have all of Snow's thoughts about what's going on. He's always analyzing everything, expecting the worst, being the type of person who thinks everyone around him are conspiring for his harm. The way he always saw the districts as inferior, analyzing everything Lucy did... In films we don't have these internal monologues (which wouldn't be difficult to do), but they decided not to include them, so people who haven't read the books are left with the impression of "owwn, he cares about falenus, owwn he cares about Lucy", and in my view, NO, he cared about Sejanus' influence, he cared about the power he had over Lucy. He never called any of them, always ready to do whatever was necessary to "snow lands on top". Also, the casting choice for Snow being a handsome actor (according to the majority, I honestly don't think he's anything special, just a white guy with light eyes) making people sympathize with him much more easily... Nah, that was a choice. They knew exactly what they were doing
@@biancaportilho6785 Thank you for the deeper analysis. I have to agree with your findings, though somehow I did not register them as evil while reading. For some reason I interpreted it as a poor man's strategy of trying to get forward in a world that was as uncaring as it was cruel. Felt like survival to me most of the time. That may be just my personal bias, as I like to think I am a kind and good person to a degree and find it a bit hard to understand thought processes of truly selfish and "evil" persons.
Thanks for your take on it, changed my own some!
Thanks for reacting man, btw I love how much you hate Gale, haha, finally someone who understands me
Lol same 😂
Im so glad there is finally a team peeta reactor
Ikr? I try to only watch those, I hate it when reactors like Gale 😒
YES! I am here for it! Okay! Here we go! Let's do this, I am going to watch it now!
Katniss recognized that the killing of Prim and everyone around was a tactic that BD and Gale came up with for District 2. She and Gale recognized the tactic, but he did not know if it was their people who utilized his plan. So he honestly couldn’t say yes or no to question of was it his plan. Yes, it was his tactic, but it was Coin’s idea to use it again and it cost Prim her life. Katniss and Snow promised never to lie to one another. He admitted that he wasn’t above killing children but not in that way. After their talk, Katniss believed Snow about Coin. She had to stop the madness. So she voted yes to the Capital One only Hunger Games. Hamich did not know where Katniss’ brain was going but he knew her well enough to know that she had a plan. When she has a plan, it’s best to follow her. That’s why he voted to “follow the Mockingjay.” It was her plan to kill them both. She could shoot Coin, and Snow would laugh himself to death as the crowd tears him apart. She planned to die with them but she was stopped from taking the nightlock pill.
GREAT REACTIONS THROUGHT THE ENTIRE SERIES!!! Thanks for the entertainment. You are fun as hell!!!!
Peeta stopped her from taking the pill because for the first time he did something selfish for himself, he couldn’t let her go❤
1:18 Correction, someone actually went over it and (at least in the books) Johanna is the one who has the worst life out of all of the characters in the Hunger Games franchise. (Peeta had it easy compared to her and the fact that the films skim over that has always annoyed me)
book joanna deserved soooooo much better
How did Peeta have it easy compared to Johanna ? They both lost their entire family. They both were tortured for weeks. Peeta lost his leg and lost his sanity. Johanna became addicted to morphing. Yes Peeta got to have a family life at the end but the fact that he is still having flashbacks when he doesn't know what's real and what's not after all these years can't be easy. I would not qualify the highjacking as easy compared to morphing addiction...
@@ptitepeluche05you’re absolutely right
Let’s go Cole!!! So excited for this video!!! And so ready for the next reaction to songbirds!!!! Also, cannot wait for the next stream!!!
Really enjoyed your reactions! Thanks!
I'm still so PISSED about the UNNECESSARY deaths of Prim and Finnick but I ❤ that Katniss was the one to end Coin and The Hunger Games 😂😂😂
That's the point, there's no "necessary" deaths in war. It's random carnage
Snow's female assistant, she's in the new Fallout TV series
Loving the reactions
Phillip Seymore Hoffman passed away while making this movie. The letter he 'sent' was supposed to be a speech by him. RIP
Can't wait to see the Prequel, "Ballard of Songbirds & Snakes"
I cant wait for you to see Ballad. After watching all this and it being fresh in your mind.
let's gooo so excited for this!!
Cole! What's up my dude??? So good to see you. This shit is good. You're the best. Let's go my man!
Ahhhhh ❤❤❤ loved loved loved your reactions to this series! 🧡🧡
Thank you so much!! ❤️ it was a very fun marathon! Crazy to see how far the movies go from that first one.
Are the orange hearts for Peeta? 😜
It here!? I wasn’t expecting to see your reaction yet. This movie gets even crazier than anything before it.
So, when are we getting a Hunger Games characters I could beat in a fight tier list?
Please do watch the prequel Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes! You'd understand Snow's hatred and cunningness while also seeing a different side to him.
You should watch the animated series Avatar the last airbender
I understand the Gale hate ,I really do, but I’ve never been a Gale hater. I don’t blame him for being all revenge fueled and difficult because he grew up in the same crappy environment as Katniss. It just affected them differently. Remember Katniss isn’t the easiest person in the world to deal with either 😆
I understand Gales anger too, but the thing is Katniss is right, that doesn’t excuse war crimes and having that kind of mentality can be an excuse to do anything to anyone. Just like how Snow suffered during the war of the dark days so he thinks it’s okay to have revenge and treat the districts that way, it just becomes a cycle and gale was fine with killing innocent civilians ruthlessly
Part 2 lets goooo!!
We got it out a lot faster, that’s for sure 😎
How long would it normally have taken you?
@@tinystegosaurus587 with my work schedule, this would’ve taken about a week. I’m in the busy season right now so I don’t have a ton of time. Movies over 2 hours long take about 15-20 hours to edit. Another over 2 hours and 30 mins would be 25+ hours
Damn, that's a hell of a time man, makes all the great work on the ones you've done so far all the more impressive. Especially the LOTR movies 😅
Tigress is actually Snow's sister
On the Capital people would go through extreme surgeries to change their appearance because they’re bored I guess but Tigress was a stylist for the games until Snow decided she wasn’t interesting enough.
Katniss agreed to it in the moment so that she'd be there with her arrow, and not locked up somewhere. She looked at Haymitch hoping that he'd understand that, and he did. Johanna and Enobaria were for real, though.
The other thing that I think gets missed sometimes is that there was no option for just behaving sanely. No matter what the decision was, Coin's tactic was to break the moral influence of the victors--if they voted for the Games, then they were responsible for bringing back what the war was fought to stop; if they voted against the Games, well, what a shame, there was an option with a lower body count, but I guess the victors just wanted us to kill thousands of people from the Capitol. It was their call, after all.
In the book, Gale and Katniss were much better disguised in their attempt at going undercover. Tigris was a stylist, and she made them look like Capitol refugees. But in the book, we're in Katniss's head, so it doesn't matter what she looks like, she knows who she is. If you're trying to keep your stars recognizable to the audience without that advantage, you can't quite disguise them so much!
0:35 you can NOT convince me you didn’t record this after the reaction with that joke… that’s TWO times now sir. First when you said “after they dropped that bombshell on us about 12,” and now you saying “I like roasting gale,” when he gets Prim literally roasted.😂😂 I know it’s a coincidence but man.. how are you doing this?? I’m SOO excited for this reaction though!! Thank you for sharing🫶🏻 can’t wait to hit play!
2:38 i mean in a way he does. He loses Katniss, the one person he always wanted at his side and in his life. AS HE SHOULD. Gale deserves only pain
Trueee
Can’t wait for songbird
My guy 💪
@@TheDorkSideTV my bad been busy working and stuff you know but I watched all the vids you put out
How would you say Gale would have killed Peeta when he was first to volunteer his life to save him from the Capital?
I hate the Gale hate. Peeta, though maybe not rich, was from the wealthy part of 12 and never said a word to Katniss before the games. Gale and Katniss had a bond of breaking the law and facing the dangers outside the fence to keep their families fed. You can like Peeta better, but hating Gale at this point is usually based on other opinions from later events.
Nice reaction, but hate the Gale hate (just an opinion). Knowing how much you like Haymitch, though, you'll probably really enjoy the new book and movie set to come out in 2025 & 2026, all about his games, the second quarter quell 👍
You love roasting Gayle? Well… Gayle loves roasting prim. Badum-tst
😂😂😂
I can't believe you just glossed over Finnick's death like that.
This is the first video I haven’t edited myself for the channel and I had a service help me edit. That scene was left out for some reason and I didn’t catch it when I reviewed the video, so that’s my bad! I was definitely shook but mostly depressed lol. The full reaction is free for 7 days on patreon if you’re interested enough to see though!
@@TheDorkSideTV Ah, I see! I was wondering why so much was cut out of this one compared to the previous ones.
Theses movies are great, concidering alot had to be cut from all the books, In the first one, Katniss looses her hearing and gets a capitol implant. and peeta looses his leg. In the second book, we actually get to find out alot about Haymitch's time in the games, and in Mockinjay, there was a whole sub plot about Joanna and Katniss training together, and Joanna having to re-train herself with combat, because of what happeened to her in the capitol, she got a really bad case of hydrophobia.
Katniss doesn't get a Capitol implant. Her hearing loss is just fixed.
@@ptitepeluche05 thanks for correcting me, been a while since I read them.
They weren’t even adults
38:36 I would’ve voted yes, let them have the tears of regret the moment they ever oppressed every district.
