I see your point and I hope they do that. Getting older people to play them really isn't necessary. I also think making them appear older like in Harry Potter would be best.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM GONNA KILL THE DIRECTOR!!!!!!!!!!!! WHERE DID YOU HERE THIS AWFULNESS!!!!!!

Do you mean the first movie Mocking Jay Part ONe

I think it bookends the beginning of HG. Hunting, for Katniss, means normality. It's where she's happy.




I think they'll have Peeta baking (perhaps in his family's rebuilt bakery)and Katniss hunting. And their children playing in the meadow that's turned green again with Peeta and Katniss looking on. That's all that's needed, I think.

I would rather it ending with the epilogue but as long as the movie stays true to the book I'm happy. Well minus all the sad stuff that happens in the book, but yea I hope it's faithful to the book.

It will be a silly thing to consider leaving the Epilogue out. It is part of the series.




Yeah!!!

Why did you dislike the ending

They have to add the epilogue, i see that some people aren't happy with the end, but if so they shouldn't watch the movies for the trilogy. The epilogue is a part of the book that is important, if it's in the book it should be in the movie.




For me, it's not so much the "happy ending." If anything, I think the epilogue makes it more realistic. Sure, it would be romantic to have it end with the whole Real/Not Real thing being the ending. But from what I got from the series was that romance was not exactly the main theme. I mean, yeah, it was important, but particularly in Mockingjay it was a lot deeper than that.
The epilogue showed Katniss and Peeta living somewhat happily, but it also showed that they were always haunted by the past. Which is very realistic. The past often haunts us, even if we are mostly happy. And the part about their children reading about the Hunger Games in textbooks. I think that is incredibly important. It shows, again, how the past will always be there.
I dunno, I just thought it was a really important part of the story...
