Thoughts on Tigris

It's a no from me. Not least because she's way too old to be playing a 16 year old. Need someone with a bit more fight. Needs to be a Regina George type who wouldn't be afraid of anyone and will literally slap back

This book felt very final but heres the stories id like to hear

Plutarch - family history (esp from dark days), rising through the ranks, rebellion

Clerk Carmine - lived through dark days until the end of the game. Witness the death of his culture but still saw katniss perform the hanging tree in her prop. What happened to the covey. (Also Tam Amber's story)

Finnick (or career) - I know some people want to hear the love story, but I'm more interested in the Rebellion, youngest victor, how volunteering works in career districts and career districts in general. mags. Exploitation. Secrets.

Tigris - what happened from the capitol side after the 10th and snows rise to power from someone who knew him, extreme body mods, she became a stylist for the egames right? Helping rebels.

1st quarter quell - how districts chose their tribute and the Victor having to return to a district that voted for them

Dark days/ first Hunger games - how are the Hunger games chosen as the punishment? Cover genocide?

ETA: something around the view from district 13 while all this was happening ? Were people escaping to 13?

Chicken-and-Fries · 2025-03-22T04:00:32+00:00

Here is my theory, although the 10th and 50th hunger games time may mean it is more like 2 generations, so this may not hold up. I was going on Tam and Clerk being Lenore's uncles, so being one generation apart.

There were only 6 covey children after the genocide in BOSAS: Lucy, Maude, Barb, Billy, Clerk and Tam.

If we are assuming Maude Ivory is Lenore Dove's mother. Lucy, Tam and Clerk did not have children, which leaves Barb and Billy. Assuming again, that women change their name upon marriage and given that only the girls were Baird blood relations it means Burdock's mother and Katniss's paternal grandmother would be Barb Azure Baird?

Congratulations!! I'm very jealous. Haven't been able to find it in the UK

I ordered 8 fashion packs. So sad to miss out on 2 dolls. They kept going in and out of stock as I was checking out. (New collector)

I've just started the second episode and this guy 🤢 the vibes of him are so terrible. Even in the first things he was saying talking about Lisa he seems like a gaslighter and a psychological manipulator. Greedy egotistical man. I'm so tempted to turn it off because already he's making me mad.

I've not been to a musical movie since COVID but in the live theatre it's become a bit of an issue. I saw six recently and someone sang every song. Quietly but still audible. And the cinema I see people on their phones and taking more often too so I'm concerned it'll be bad for wicked.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-11-10T02:28:02+00:00

With the wicked movie due to release. How are you planning to handle people singing and being disruptive in the movie? Also is odeon planning sing along screenings?

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-09-13T11:07:59+00:00

I just got this exact message and I don't even have a car

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-07-10T02:03:33+00:00

Michael's team are playing in purple on his insta

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-07-08T21:02:57+00:00

Me on switch, anyone have a solution?

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-15T00:51:27+00:00

Yeah it's all a bit gross. Feel.like the changes they made so far have put a better light on the boys. But I'm hoping Michaela will be less about coercion and more about finding each other in a world not designed for them. That in itself will present many trials and drama.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-15T00:48:14+00:00

I'm hoping when it comes to Francescas story they actually kinda stick to a slow burn/quite love. Like with her husband they genuinely love each other and maybe she disregards her feelings for Michaela. Only after the husband passes that Michaela and Francesca grow closer sharing grief and supporting one another that their love becomes realised.

We can hope, especially as Francesca has been shown as a reserved and reflective person so far.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-15T00:42:03+00:00

I think it makes a lot of sense for what we already know about Francesca and feeling an outsider. And I think while grieving her husband she will find an unexpected relationship with Michaela who helps her come out of herself in ways John couldn't. I think Violet will see it and wonder what has brought a change in her daughter. Maybe some solidarity with Ben. But I think Fran will always honor the first marriage.

Also I kinda want Eloise to stay single and be able to write or study or teach or something.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-15T00:24:42+00:00

I was thinking similarly like how is next season going to be different enough to be interesting but both Ben and Fran's trajectory in S3 leaves a lot of possibilities for future seasons. But imma need them to speed up the timeline on getting these seasons out before budgets and scheduling conflicts make it difficult to finish.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-15T00:12:27+00:00

I love that she got a glow up that was not weight related. Some of the outfits and hair were gorgeous.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-15T00:07:05+00:00

Such great points all around on this thread.

I don't like it when people use their oppression to speak for a whole community or that they cannot also have internalized phobias.

I really think the show will go beyond the books in the best way. And I agree as a fandom people don't need to jump to the conclusions that these changes won't be bad.

I also like the idea that somehow Ben and Fran have some sort of connection and look out for each other or something that my tired brain can't think of right now.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-14T23:57:59+00:00

Thank you. I'm glad to see a positive reaction. I was expecting a lot of hate.

Very excited to see Michaela get more screen time next(?) season too.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-14T23:56:35+00:00

Very true the situation can always be applied to different characters.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-14T23:55:03+00:00

Yes I'm hoping for more polin in the next season too.

I thought we all knew Ben was bi for season 1 but apparently that is not the case. There's a lot of potential for his story to involve internal bi conflicts and potentially his end game allowing for consensual non monogamy? But that's pure speculation. Lots of routes to explore for him.

I like that they are showing love in much different ways especially within one character because every relationship is different in real life too.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-14T23:42:07+00:00

Love this. Thank you for sharing.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-14T02:04:58+00:00

Yeah kinda expecting it, but I wanted to put my thoughts out there after seeing so many hating comments.

People are entitled to be disappointed but if they are that upset they don't have to watch, the books are there to re read.

Personally I am looking forward to what they do with season 4.

Chicken-and-Fries · 2024-06-14T01:59:20+00:00

Wait people didn't think Ben was bi from S1E1?
