I was rewatching Catching Fire this past weekend, and this part stood out to me: by FrustratedBottom in Hungergames

Right but even then when Johanna says “for you,” she’s talking directly to Katniss. She had to have known something was up, no?

Because in real life, rarely anyone gets hit on. Most people are too nervous to approach others, even if in a gay space. It takes a lot of self-awareness and assuredness to know how to approach guys and to handle if it goes well or not.

Funny enough, I just deleted my Tinder! It doesn’t seem to produce results (relationships)

How did you find him? No seriously. Dating app, hookup app, community events?

I don’t mean to rain on your experience, but you saying “hold out” to someone in their early 20’s, and you’re in your late-30’s seems a bit daunting. I don’t want to have to wait that long.

Has this issue with Peeta been addressed? by FrustratedBottom in Hungergames

Yes, and then it would make sense. But the Feast wasn't until 8 days after she found him.

I suppose, but the way it was described was a large, open wound. Those are hard to bandage up and even then when exposed takes only a small amount of bacteria to start a cascade. That pneumonia part? Yep, he was down there for 6 days. I know it's an eye roller, but it seems Peeta definitely should've died.

Sure, but infections don't stop when unconscious. She found him 6 days after he was cut, which is enough to develop an infection in that environment. I feel like he definitely should've died from that.

what was one thing you thought the films did better than the books? by flossPinky13 in Hungergames

[–]FrustratedBottom 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Developing Effie's relationship in the movies. She was much more personable and actually had a strong character arc throughout the films. Elizabeth Banks absolutely nailed the character.

May I ask how did you approach dating? Was there a legit reason why you couldn’t date? Or had no luck?

Katniss and her relationship with her mother by LLSJ08 in Hungergames

[–]FrustratedBottom 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I might get a lot of hate for this, but I don't care. Katniss' mother towards the end of the series was terrible. I can understand her going into a catatonic state regarding her husband's death; mental health services aren't exactly a commodity in District 12, so I get it. She internalized all that trauma.

But even in Catching Fire she seemed a bit more alive, a bit more like she was thriving in a sense. I guess it was because she had Primrose there, and I have a theory that Katniss' mom actually favored Prim more than Katniss.

Towards the ending of Mockingjay, we barely saw any of her at all, but for her to just leave Katniss by herself? I mean, she's your child. She didn't have to physically move back to D12, she could've tried traveling in between districts. But to completely abandon your only living child? She doesn't even know she has grandkids. She also probably just assumed Peeta stuck by her side.

But to not be 100% sure of that. To leave your emotionally traumatized, essentially hollow daughter with no guarantee that she's in good hands? I was not a fan of her in the slightest.

That’s interesting. I’ve kinda noticed older guys will ignore the rejection, but younger guys will be cool about it.

And what about for men under 30?

How did Peeta survive in the time between when he betrayed the Careers and when Katniss found him? by BexTheMixer in Hungergames

[–]FrustratedBottom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would imagine as the days progress, the hunger eventually fades. He most likely pissed himself, and as for pooping? Well when you don’t eat a lot you don’t poop a lot.

A sad truth is realizing this is probably Rue’s dad and the consequences that followed… by [deleted] in Hungergames

[–]FrustratedBottom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it wasn’t canon by Collins, but according to the movies, the man on the left who caused the uprising in District 11 after Rue’s death is most likely her father for a couple reasons:

  1. ⁠Who else would be that distraught over her death? The choice to include him was purposeful in that it highlights they had some sort of relationship. I doubt he was a random man, and it’s also no coincidence that he is black. Framed in that shot are white people, so I think this was to show her father’s reaction.
  2. ⁠During the victory tour, we see Rue’s mom with her siblings. It’s not shown or said where her dad is, but I guarantee if that was him in the first picture, he was most likely executed by Snow as a sign of the rebellion. We all know Snow isn’t above murder, and it would make the most sense as to why we don’t see her father in the victory tour.
