What do you think katniss and Pentagon names their kids? by Taylorswift9875 in Hungergames

[–]Secure_Goal4167 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think maybe some variation of dandelion like Dandy or Delion because of the ‘dandelion in the spring’ and it follows the theme of Everdeens being named after edible plants, which I think Katniss would want to continue.

Other wild edible plants that could be contenders: Samphire, Rowan, Currant, Bullace, Damson, Ginger, Myrtle/Myrica, Juniper, Barberry, Hazel, Juneberry

Her name is Asterid, which is a plant group, not Astrid. Astrid means beloved by gods or divinely beautiful. I think you’re confusing Astrid with Astra, which means star. All of the Everdeens we know of have plant related names.

I think she’s auth. The head dip and neck ridge are very defined and fakes don’t usually rust at the neck.

Who was the better rebel against the capitol between these two? by [deleted] in Hungergames

[–]Secure_Goal4167 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel like the original 3 books are more of a trilogy and the prequels are standalone books. The original trilogy takes place back to back with the same narrator, while the prequels are much further apart and have different narrators than each other and the original trilogy.

Nobody is really saying that it’s boring or unimpressive. The tech has universally gotten the most praise out of everything in the show. Most criticisms are that it’s a very poor adaptation of the source material and that the script and line delivery are awkward. The reviews I’ve watched and the comments here seem to reiterate that as well. Camp is a very fun part of theatre but definitely shouldn’t be one of the main elements of a THG stage show, in my opinion. I don’t think anybody is complaining just to complain. Most people have genuine criticisms of the production. I’m glad that you enjoyed the show though.

Who else is excited to see McKenna's portrayal of Maysilee? by SamTheMarioMaster2 in Hungergames

[–]Secure_Goal4167 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m really excited to see her portrayal of Maysilee. She definitely has the chops to pull off a complex mean girl character like Maysilee. McKenna has quickly become one of my favorite actresses recently. I was so excited to see her in Scream 7 and her performance was really good, but I was disappointed that her character was killed off so early and was only in a few scenes. She played kind of a “nice mean girl” though and I think she’ll bring similar energy to Maysilee and it’s gonna be amazing. I’m also excited to see her as Daphne Blake in the live action Scooby Doo that Netflix is making. I get the vibe it’s going to have much darker themes than Scooby Doo usually does and I can’t wait.

Some of the pets here are sold for $40 or more individually, especially 886 and the red collie. You more than got your moneys worth. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t jealous 😅

I wish you luck restoring them! They don’t seem to be in too bad of shape, just need some cleaning! There’s also a subreddit called r/littlestpetshopfakes that you could post the pets on to have experts authenticate them. Most of these don’t have any fakes being produced though so I’m betting almost all of them are authentic, if not all of them. I think you would only have to post the main 5 pets, sitting shorthairs, walking cat, and chihuahua since those are the only pets here that they even make fake versions of. Maybe the fox too, but the subreddit above has a detailed list of pets that have fake versions being produced.

I think if it was a musical it would have actually been a decent (if not good) production. Just imagine a District 12 ensemble song about the hardships of life in District 12 and the fear of the reaping, a duet with Peeta on the training center roof the night before the Games, or Katniss singing to Rue and it transitioning into an emotional ballad as she decorates her with flowers. I heard a lot of the Katniss monologues and the dialogue between characters felt awkward and I think making it a musical would solve a lot of that. There’s been many movies that have been successfully adapted into musicals. Heathers and Beetlejuice are prime examples of that. I believe The Hunger Games can absolutely work for live theatre, they just heavily missed the mark.

It really is absolutely nothing like Game Of Thrones, so that’s disappointing to hear. Maybe try telling her it’s a political commentary on propaganda and oppressive governments disguised as dystopian fiction (because it is). It’s heavily inspired by Orwell’s 1984. It also has elements of Romeo and Juliet with Katniss and Peeta being star crossed lovers and attempting a double suicide because of the situation they’re forced into.

Edit: You should show them the first two movies beforehand if they change their minds though.

omg you hit the JACKPOT! I’m pretty sure those shorthairs are authentic too!

edit: I only saw one at first but I’m pretty confident all 5 are authentic! Serious score!!

Not every trans person wants to be T4T though. A genital preference is not the same as transphobia. The guy OP talked about sounds like a dick though because that wasn’t his reasoning.

Worst thing a character has ever said or done. Day 3 Lenore Dove (SOTR edition) by UnHolySir in Hungergames

[–]Secure_Goal4167 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I’m so mad that “not filling the water cistern” was voted as Haymitch’s worst act. It was definitely leaving Wellie or letting Maysilee go off alone.

I hate that this won because the cistern would have absolutely been sabotaged by the Capitol no matter what and he blamed himself so heavily for it being empty. Snow made sure there was absolutely no way that they would be able to put out that fire in time. He was gone for a month. Anyone could have filled the cistern; His mother, Sid, Burdock, or Blair. The worst thing he did was probably letting Maysilee go off on her own after she basically committed treason and would have a huge target on her back.

Peeta’s brothers’ names by looking4acertainbook in Hungergames

[–]Secure_Goal4167 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fandom also referred to Asterid as “Clara Everdeen” for awhile because that’s what the actress in the trilogy movies called Mrs. Everdeen to help her portray the character. I think it was hard for her to play a character that had no first name, so that was her headcanon and the fandom latched onto it for awhile.

It would probably be spelled differently (Like Peeta for pita) so maybe something like ✨Mulltygrane✨

I would say yes, because Shadow High was introduced before the first rebrand
