  • The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes Reviews are in for Rachel Zegler's latest movie. Mixed reviews at best with some very critical commentary from many professional reviewers make for a hesitant launch. Variety has reported The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes is projected to make $50 million domestic for it's first weekend, and with a $100 Million budget. Could this be Rachel Zegler's first profitable movie? Is The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes worth watching?

    Rachel Zegler's The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is soon to be released. But first we have the early professional critics reviews and they don't like it either! Screen Rant desperately tries to spin the reviews as "mixed" struggling to even come up with 8 reasons why the score is bombing. From resisting urges about what to do with your own cup to pondering if the creators have a soul, these Hunger Games have it all. And while the movie may break even, I think we can all agree Rachel Zegler being unable to talk about the movie for 3 months definitely helped the movies public image. Which allows it to ride off the good will of the IP rather than the quality of the movie itself. But what do you think? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

      Screen Rant gives 90+% reviews to every film that is despised by its fellow critics (and even more despised by audiences). Including the marvels, the hunger games prequel, etc. Screen Rant has zero credibility. None.

      What kills me is even though they roast her acting as they should they still have to go out of their way and lie and say that she’s this amazing singer when she’s not I’ve heard way better singers she makes me think of a theater kid who is a dime a dozen, but thinks they’re 1 million if that makes any sense.

    The problem with Rachel Zegler is that she thinks she is a star performer and also thinks she deserves to be a star.

      I was a volunteer contributor for ComingSoon. In between them firing all the original folks and hiring a new diverse group, we were the fodder who wrote top 10 lists that were glorified Amazon ads. I was usually upstaged by an episode plot description of something. They told us we'd get the chance to be "hired" after a year, so they were sure to cut us off on month 9 (and 3 months "off" against our will) with an email.
      (To be fair, the new diverse editor was actually better than the original.)
      But, yeah. I had though about hopping over to screenrant, as it had been a while, and the sights were similar, but the topics... and some of the opinions... yeeeesh. "Margot Robbie should play Duke Nukem!!!" (wtf?)

Would it make £1bn? No. But it might be something that would restore faith in the film going public and turning a profit would be a fun little bonus for them.

Why can't villains just be villainous anymore without some tragic backstory that makes people LIKE them? We're not supposed to like villains!"
    Maybe it's lost on some, but the writing of Snow in the book trilogy, only emphasised by Donald Sutherland's acting in the movies, tells us everything we NEED to know about Snow for the story to progress. If we needed to know more, it would have been included in that trilogy.

    The difference to today is astounding, as people tend to point out for some time now: Hollywood forgot who they need to make money and be successful, so instead of taking a loss after producing a bad movie, they try to spin it.

    Katniss' Story in the trilogy was about love and family, creating new bonds that help stop you from drifting down into the dark like her mother did.
    Lucy's story in the prequel novel is about trust and survival.
    Snow's story is about returning to 'power' and prestige, and the costs for both.
    Romance has always been a secondary, but still pivotal sub plot to all of these characters. It did not define them; Snow and Katniss both started with zero interest and even scoff at the idea of love because they have their respective families to look out for.
    But it did influence many of their critical decisions later in the stories. That is why he knew he wouldn't be convinced about the love affair in the Games...until he was, and he knew before Katniss did that she really loved Peeta. Hence why he was held prisoner.
    Katniss married Peeta because she needed his gentle warmth to combat her ferocious coldness, not Gale's viciousness and rage. Snow married someone he knew he could never love because he knew real love and was afraid of how it can make a man lose his focus and risk himself.
    Lucy inadvertantly taught Snow the most important lesson he ever needed, and that was to feel true love for someone else for the first time. He resisted as hard as he could. He even made distance more than once when he suspected she was actively playing with his mind.
    If anyone reads the books and stops whining about the surface level nuances, they would see a much more intricate parallel that makes the prequel NOVEL work well and actually see the real message in the stories.
    Trust, Hope, Survival, Love and Family. All of these play major points to many of the characters in the Hunger Games series. Those are the messages the series was trying to portray...but nope. Everyone only thinks emotions and bad romances is what makes the world go round in these movies. Movies are always going to be crap if the book is not respected as it clearly wasn't in the making of THG:TBoSaS, as it was for the trilogy series.

She needs to stop the way she’s being acting by hating all men. Rachel is not one true Snow White. There are lots of actresses throughout time whom took the part of Snow White. Character and story, Disney doesn’t not own it. The Grimm Brothers wrote their own version of Snow White centuries ago. The story met for everyone to share, but not to own. The CEO of Disney, Bob Iger doesn’t owns the story and characters. Any studio can make their own stories of any character from books from centuries ago by any author.

    I really liked the book, rooting for Snow was easy and watching his descent into corruption was entertaining. I never once thought that Snow was a good guy, just that as a villain I could understand his viewpoint. Of course, I did never root for their "romance" just seeing it as two people trying to manipulate each other, and I was honestly quite happy when she disappeared (and in my opinion is dead) in the ending. Anyone wanting the book to be a romance would be quite wrong, but if Hollywood tried to make this book a romance after they tried to make the first book a romance (which it wasn't) then the movie is of course doomed to be bad.
