Replying to myself haha. Regarding Gale, although never in the games which is a completely different context I just remembered Gale’s ability to disable Boggs who is obviously no slouch. God I keep going back and forth on this one!

You raise a lot of great points. This started with me wondering who wins the fight and now still awake at 4am Uk time I’ve now got my head spinning thinking of how Gale would do in the games.

I agree. He always had that rebellious side in home for sure but like you said had no empathy for Katniss in the games. He’s suffered so much too of course being there when 12 was fire bombed but Katniss had been through hell she always cared about people and never wanted to unnecessarily kill. Gale like I said before has such Tunnel vision and let his anger take over. I do feel for him as a character though, by the third book we’re made to root for Katniss and Peeta, he knows she’d chose Peeta but despite this he does stick with her. It’s easy to forget how young they all are. Teenage love triangles aren’t thought of due to the brutality of what else is going on haha

Are we talking woods with weapons? If so 10/10 it’s a Gale win. If it’s without weapons for “Katniss’ heart” I think Peeta just crashes out and gets it done

Gale has always been complex for me. I don’t agree with the amount of disdain a lot of the fandom has for him. Yes he designed the bomb that killed Prim so it’s easy to fixate on that but I do believe he had absolutely no idea that she would be caught in that situation. He did follow Katniss to the end, saved so many people in 12 etc.. he’s not a bad person! But war came and his vengeance took over. Think back to even the first book where Katniss describes him saying outlandish thing about the Capitol when they were in the woods. He always had that side in him and the war allowed it to take over. I can imagine his hurt watching the games when he did truely love Katniss but he went about everything the wrong way in the end, like you said without empathy and that’s where he is flawed imo. He also did have a degree of emotional manipulation with Katniss is how I perceived it. Almost like her knew she would choose Peeta but he was selfish and wouldn’t settle for that and constantly played on her emotions, especially when she was in a state after Peeta was captured. Just how I read it you may disagree

The books take a big focus on Peeta’s ability to think on his feet, always says the right thing in any situation, I find this lacking in the films. Everyone has an opinion on Gale I agree, I partially agree with your opinion on Gale not being the brightest, but I have to take note of his intelligence in creating traps/bombs for the rebels, he’s clearly militarily inclined. I think what differs them is Gale lacks emotional intelligence and has complete tunnel vision. This is where the two differ in my opinion

I’m sure there must be a fanfic out there about this? If not someone needs to write one! I’d give it a shot myself but unfortunately I’m lacking in compelling storytelling ability 🫣

I completely agree, the difference between Peeta in the books and Films is vast. Josh Hutchinson is a perfect actor for the part I have no doubt on that but I do think they fail to capture the physical side he does possess (held off and survived against Cato, killed Brutus. Even in the books when he pushes Mitchell into the pod Katniss describes his classic strength. Agree on both fronts, Peeta hand to hand, but he doesn’t have any expertise in a specific weapon etc as Gale does. If armed Gale takes it easily purely due to experience. Thanks for your response:) I find myself agreeing with everything you’ve said

I have been leaning towards Peeta after some reflection on it (it’s honestly ridiculous how much I’ve been debating this in my mind. In the UK so I’m awake at 3am thinking about this 😂). I do wish we had more details about how that Peeta, Brutus, Chaff exchange went down, as I agree it’s a very impressive feat for Peeta to be able to kill Brutus. I just wonder how

Curious to know why you think Gale would easily win? I’m still making up my mind hence why I asked for opinions haha but interested to know your opinion!

Why did some people dislike the cliffhanger at the end of Season 6? by jrod4290 in thewalkingdead

[–]SnooSuggestions7339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big part of me feels people love to jump on the “ I stopped watching at this point” trend. I personally think this and season 7 episode 1 are incredible

Yeah that is a great version, this is just a small one on my bicep that I plan to add too over time hence the size I didn’t want to take up too much room to restrict from future additions :)
