1. The first shot introduces us to District 12 . It's more rustic than I had originally imagined.
Personally, when I think futuristic post-apocalyptic setting, I think of more concrete, dead vehicles
scattered, maybe some unusual technology. If this was a post war North America, though, in a
mining colony, this is probably a lot closer to what it would look like. I think the big thing to
remember is that the Capitol wants to keep everyone under control. The only technology the
districts have is what the Capitol will allow. They probably cleared the area of any modern
remnants other than what they control.
2. The fence. Of everything in the trailer, for some reason, the fence bothered me the most. I
always imagined it as being much taller, much more industrial and opposing. This looks like a
simple cattle fence. I suppose that's all they would need to get the job done, but it still didn't fit with
how I had thought it should look - what about you? And if that's the worst thing about the trailer, I
think we're in pretty good shape!
3. Gale and Katniss . I know it's already been said, but their conversation seems to come so
naturally. Just like they are the old friends they should be. Liam Hemsworth was the one casting
choice that I was somewhat unsure of at first. I still don't think he quite looks like the person I
imagined, but so far he seems like a great Gale, and that's the most important thing. The
chemistry is there, but doesn't seem to be overdone, which I am thankful for. A lot of things in the
trailer don't look overdone, which really helps make everything come together in a much more real
way.
4. Katniss hunting. Just a quick shot (no pun intended), but Jennifer Lawrence seems comfortable
with a bow, even if the previous screen-cap showed her holding it a bit oddly. I'm going to keep
with my theory that she was in the midst of pointing out her target, which is why her hands were
off. If there is one thing that Katniss needs to do, it's shoot a bow with confidence.
5. The hovercraft. This is possibly when they see Lavinia running from the Capitol, later to become
an Avox. Though this doesn't actually happen in the first book, timeline wise it could fit into the first
movie. It might also be something along the lines of extra peacekeepers coming in for the
Reaping, or something generic like that. It's really hard to get a very good glimpse of the
hovercraft here, but worth noting is how loud it is. Unless I am misremembering, aren't the
hovercraft described as being completely silent? Someone help me out here?
6. The Reaping. We already had a glimpse of all the potential tributes in their best clothes. It's nice
too see it all as one scene now. I know a lot of people wanted to see the Reaping in the trailer and
I think they made a good choice by putting it in. It is especially important for those who don't know
the story ahead of time. I really like that already we are seeing the large television screens.
Television, broadcast, and propaganda, are all so important to the story, I expect to see things like
2. this everywhere. We also get a nice shot of the Capitol's seal hanging on a red banner.
7. Effie. Maybe not as pink-haired as expected, but still amazingly creepy, out of place, and
Capitol-esque. Her accent, too, is spot on to what I heard in my head. Sort of British, but not quite.
She wasn't quite as "flouncy" as I had imagined, but the Reaping is a very formal occasion, so
there is plenty of time for that later on.
8. Peacekeepers. Just like Effie, they look completely out of place, making a striking statement of
who is in power here. Great uniforms that are not too futuristic that they look goofy.
9. Prim. We all knew that Willow Shields was going to make a wonderful Prim, and she doesn't
disappoint. Her emotion is so innocent and real. Not a lot more to go on at this point, but she is
more a symbol and catalyst at this point than anything else.
10. Prim is Reaped. One of the most important parts of the story, this is one of those do or die
moments that either makes or breaks the entire thing. If the audience doesn't feel the
helplessness and desperation that comes out of Katniss's love for her sister, the whole point of the
movie falls flat. I think it's enough to say that no matter how many times I watch that scene, I get
shivers up my spine and I know I will feel it even more when I see it in the theater eventually.
11. Peeta. Josh Hutcherson has a talent of showing you exactly what he is thinking or feeling, just
with his eyes. In just that first glimpse he looks first confused, then despondent, and then resolved,
in three blinks of an eye.
12. Only one comes out. Gale and Katniss again. That line sums up so much, and has so much
weight. Another good choice for the trailer.
13. The Train. One of the few CG elements in the movie. So far, it seems like the computer
graphics overall could use a little polish, but there are still months left to do that, and for the most
part it is only going to be the pickiest of us that would complain. The design of the train is
interesting in that it has a great, slightly futuristic, but still recognizable bullet design, as well as
looking like a luxury hotel inside if the brief glimpse of a chandelier is any indication.
14. The Capitol. Not a lot is seen of the city, but it looks massive enough. It also has a very military
type look to it from the outside, despite being the lap of luxury. Appropriate given that it survived
and went on to rule after multiple wars
15. Cinna and makeup. The scene where Katniss is being helped to make an impression is quite
stark and jarring. I had thought of it as being a more intimate setting with just her and her style
team, but it really is effective to see all the tributes being worked on at once in a hospital-like
environment - it reminds me that they are all there to be killed, not to be thought of as people.
Cinna has only a small moment here so I can hardly comment. I can't say anything negative about
what I see of Lenny Kravitz's portrayal so far, but I can't say a lot positive either. Hopefully we get
to see him really shine in the next trailer.
Now is when we start getting a LOT going on.
16. The Interview and Caesar Flickerman. Stanley Tucci with a blue ponytail. He looks every bit
3. the flamboyant host. The dress Katniss is wearing is not quite as dramatic as I would have
imagined, but this is probably a case of what sounds good on paper comes out cheesy in film so
they needed to tone it down a bit. Still, stunning.
17. President Snow. Appropriately chilling. Donald Sutherland has a great air about him that says
he is in charge, fears nothing, but is constantly living in fear of something to be afraid of. I have a
feeling he is going to end up being a memorable villain as the story progresses.
18. The Girl on Fire. The chariot scene, so fast and small, if you blink you will miss it. I'm glad they
didn't reveal too much, while still giving us a great idea of what it is going to look like. I also love
the futuristic opera glasses, so to speak.
19. The Tributes. The training room looks perfect - do you agree? This is also our first look at all
the tributes together. We get glimpses of Cato, Clove, Rue, Thresh, and the rest. The officials look
on from their lofty seats. This is also our first glimpse of just how violent the games are going to
be, with heads being severed, bodies being smashed, and spears impaling - and then we see
Rue.
20. Peeta. Just wanted to point out that he looks snazzy in that interview suit and Stanley Tucci
looks like he is having a lot of fun with the role.
21. Haymitch. The trailer needs more Haymitch. I know Woody Harrelson can play a great
eccentric functional drunk, and all we get is a bit of (important) advice. For those who don't know
who Haymitch is, though, that part could be a little confusing. I'm not sure about his look, but so far
we've only seen him as the cleaned up Capitol version of himself. He will surely be more surly in
other scenes.
22. Peeta and Katniss. I am glad they are not going an obvious "they will become love interests!"
route with what they have shown of the two so far. It's obvious that they have very different ways
of thinking as shown with the conversation on the roof.
23. Archery. Again, Lawrence really looks like a pro with the bow, which is great. Her form seems
spot on (archery experts, please chime in) and she shoots with great confidence. I just hope that
the bullseye shot we see is not somehow replacing the apple from the pig's mouth. That would be
a shame if they cut that.
24. Seneca Crane. That is some beard!
25. The Mockingjay. The all important pin makes it's appearance, but from Prim instead of Madge.
From what I've heard, Madge is not in the movie, which is disappointing, but it at least still makes
some sense to have Prim give her the pin. We won't know for sure until later though, trailers can
be misleading and scripts can change.
26. Rue's Death. "But that wasn't in the trailer!" you might say. I beg to differ. As Katniss gives her
three fingered salute, I think it is very likely that the crowd in front of the screens is blocking Rue's
body from our view. Another chill down your spine moment. Another great use of the ever present
media - especially in this case when it works against the Capitol's advantage.
4. 27. 3...2...1... The countdown is a perfect way to end this trailer. We get to see the games from the
point of view of others - something we know is going on but never get to see in the books, and it
really brings to life the way everyone is forced to watch and how it is all a big game for those
putting it on, but not those playing it or forcing themselves to cheer for a winner. Cheering for a
winner is cheering for 23 other children to be murdered.
28. The Bloodbath. The beginning of the games is the end of the trailer. Franctic, crazy, and it
leaves you wanting more right away because you know what's about to happen even if you have
never read the books. A quick note: While the backpack Katniss picks up does not appear to be
bright orange, I did catch some orange on the front of it. I think another case of translating
something to screen without it becoming distracting. I think it works.
29. Overall. I think this trailer is, honestly, one of the better trailers I have seen recently. It sets up
the story, brings life to the characters, suggests some intrigue, and even pulls at all sorts of
emotions in a very short amount of time. It also did all these things without giving away the entire
movie and every key scene! While a few things bugged me a little, I didn't see ANYTHING that
makes me worry about where the story was being taken, or how this movie is going to end up.
March can't come soon enough!
