Seeing the invisible
Suzanne Collins wrote, “I'll tell them how I survive it. I'll tell them that on bad mornings, it feels impossible to take pleasure in things because I'm afraid it could be taken away. That's when I make a list in my head of every act of goodness I've seen someone do. It's like a game. Repetitive. Even a little tedious after more than twenty years. But there are much worse games to play.” Last Sunday I went to see the movie called Monckingjay part 1, this is the third part of The Hunger Games trilogy. These novels are about the Hunger Games universe; this is a dystopia set in Panem. A country consisting of the rich Capitol and twelve districts in varying states of poverty. Every year, children are …show more content…

Furthmore, the two first parts are the beginning and de develop of the story and Monckingjay part 1 is the opening of the final; meanwhile, this interesting movie is about a particular universe located in the future. The trilogy of the Hungers Games was create by Suzanne Collins, the intelligent women thus only have 52 years old. Besides, the adaptation of Monckingjay part 1 is a fantastic movie with amazing actors that show the crazy country that is Panem. In other hand, Monckingjay part 1 is the best movie ever, with awesome effects on the screen, with each explosion, with every fight realize we can see the dedication that actors and producers have; even though, the teamwork is show in the display. This American film is the end that we are expected. In fact, any character leaves nothing to be desired, the full movie brings a logical sequence of books. All of this start because the Capitol was angry for the defiance of Katniss and Peeta in the first part, which inspires rebellion in several districts. Katniss and Peeta tour the districts,

In this book, Katniss Everdeen and her family and friends start to live in a strict new world now as District Thirteen.

    A movie rarely does a book justice, the To Kill a Mockingbird movie truly brought the book to life. However, the book is still better than the movie. The book is far superior because, the movie deviates character development by leaving out certain events, the movie is missing key characters such as Aunt Alexandra, and some casting choices took away from certain characters.

  • Imagery In The Hunger Games, By Suzanne Collins

    965 Words  | 2 Pages

    Collins has embedded a very strong moral behind her writings, which she has made quite clear through the morals of Panem and its Capitol. The Hunger Games could be described as a massive, national television show with a little – well, big – twist. Like reality television in our day and age, it is extremely popular with plenty of drama; except, perhaps the drama is a little too dramatic, involving the brutal murder of tributes and the literal back-stabbing of fellow ‘allies’. Essentially, the Hunger Games is a large sport and source of entertainment, where the tributes must face atrocious perils such as fireballs, mutated, dogs, along with tracker-jackers – wasps genetically modified to create hallucinations and kill with merely a few painful stings. Although this is a bit too extreme for our reality television, there are still many similarities.

  • Feminist Lens On 'The Great Gatsby'

    The Hunger Games is a unique novel that explores a fascinating concept, what happens when you throw twenty-four people to battle to the death? What’s truly remarkable about the novel is its ability to be read from a feminist point of view. Collins takes on the role of a feminist author by placing Katniss Everdeen, a female underdog, as the winner of the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games are about strength and endurance, and females were not favored to win under any circumstances. By making Katniss the winner, Collins defies the gender stereotype that women are weak and unable to defeat men in competitions that favor physicality and strength.

  • Social Control and The Hunger Games

    1095 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Hunger Games, a film based off of a novel written by Susan Collins, was released in March of 2012. The film, and the book it was based on, chronicles the struggles of a girl named Katniss Everdeen, a girl who lives in a poverty stricken province or “District”, until untimely circumstances forces her to play in the Hunger Games, a gladiatorial like contest where children between the ages of 12 and 18 are forced to fight to the death. A contest that was set up by an oppressive and authoritarian government, and has thus far been sustained via the forced obedience of the rebellious Districts, the brainwashing and conditioning of Districts 1 and 2, and the conditioning of the residents of its Capitol. The movie has a variety of messages, most especially in regards to social control and social conditioning. With these ideas in mind, a case could very well be made that The Hunger Games, throughout its two hour long run time, shows a very realistic look at a socially conditioned society and what humanity can become with the right amount of conditioning and control by an authoritarian force.

    “Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor.”, a very well known quote from the book series The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, Pg 19). The Hunger Games Trilogy written by Suzeanne Collins has become enormously popular. The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay are the three works that make up the series. A major motion picture was released titled The Hunger Games, after the first book in the series, and it instantly became a box office hit. Those who have not read the books may be left wondering why a book series focused on kids ages 12-18 are put into an arena and fight to the death is creating such a commotion. Not only are the books popular among adolescents, many adults have also found the series captivating as well. With books so focused on violence, there must be an underlying factor that draws readers in and makes them feel so passionately about the characters in these books. In all three books, but particularly in the first, Suzeanne Collins captivates readers by creating such vivid and emotional relationships between the characters. Suspense is created by the anticipation of not knowing what will happen between the characters. A strong bond between sisters, a broken mother-daughter relationship, and a love triangle are some of the main relationships built and focused upon throughout the book that draw readers in.

    A movie that came out in 2002 was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. This movie was based off the best-selling novel, which was written in 1997 by J.K. Rowling, called Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. If you were to read this book and watch the movie you would find many differences, but the main difference between the two is that the book gives more information to the reader than the movie gives to the viewer. If someone was to watch the movie instead of reading the book, that person would not be able to have an accurate perception of the book because so many things in the book are changed in the movie or parts are left out of the movie completely. This is mainly because the book has more characters and chapters, which are able to keep the reader informed and interested. Still, the movie is shorter so that people who want a quick summary of the storyline can get it,

  • To Kill a Mockingbird: Movie and Book Comparison

    To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is a beloved novel published in 1960. After reading the novel there were some moments and people that I found particularly enjoyable. My favorite part of the novel was when the children went to Boo Radley's house to try to get a look at him. In addition, Atticus Finch was my favorite character in the novel. In my opinion the book was very good. I felt that it really showed the thoughts and actions, both good and bad, of the people in the South during the time of the Great Depression. At some points it was sad and at others it was comical but overall it conveyed the message that it was trying to send and everyone could learn something from it.
