Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
So let’s just get this straight…
Hunger Games has the 3rd biggest opening in movie history.
An action flick starring a girl.
Who isn’t an emaciated stick.
Who isn’t a princess.
Whose journey is motivated by her sister, not a man.
Who is not sexually used, abused, active or even objectified much.
3rd biggest opening in movie history. Spawning a franchise.
Let’s just… let’s just think about that.
Let’s just bask in the glow.
look at his face. that’s the face of being absolutely and utterly petrified. not only because he has to compete in these brutal, animalistic games, but because he has to do so against the girl he is in love with.
and look at her face. she just went on a roller coaster of emotions with her sister being picked, fearing prim’s death, to her volunteering for sister, then fearing her own death. and now she has to compete against the one person who she actually owes something to.
they’re both young, kids even. and they’re going to kill and/or be killed for other’s viewing pleasure. and they’re terrified. disgusted. i just couldn’t be happier with who was cast for my favourite book trilogy in the world.
