Cindy’s comments from the On Tyrants & Tributes : Real World Lessons From The Hunger Games group.

Favorite book scene: Rue's death was especially touching. I rarely cry while reading, but I did all three times I read the first book.

Favorite movie scenes: So far the movies are incredible and, not to take away from them and sound shallow, but I really love the costumes! Especially the twirling mockingjay wedding dress.

As Jeffrey said, government manipulation of media. Additionally, there is the larger issue of distracting the masses in order to continue pillaging from the real producers who no longer have a voice that can be heard. Panem (government "freebies" for the voting masses) et circenses (reality shows, sports, consumerism, etc.).
