[Coco] I've been wondering this for a long time. I'm guessing that the first movie will be good and people will want more... but maybe not. What are your thoughts?


Jack Well, seeing as movies generally are worse than the book, and Mockingjay was, in my opinion, really bad, I don't think they should.

They probably will though, because of all the money involved.


Lisa Westerfield Yes, they will.


Amanda (Gale's Chosen One) Potter Yeah, i think they will.
Apparently they were going to do 4 movies, splitting Catching fire in two parts.
Plus everyone is expecting it be a huge success. Bigger than Twilight, maybe Harry Potter? who know's but it has gotten a lot of hype so yeah they'd have to make a movie for all the books.

yeah that's what i heard :) hopefully it's true!


Alyssa PLEASE MAKE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HUNGER GAMES IS MY LIFE!!! :D I <3 HUNGER GAMES SOOO MUCH I CAN'T EXPRESSS HOW MUCH I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! ......................... lol


Abbie They are going to do a Hunger Games movie - and then a Catching Fire movie - and then splitting Mockingjay into 2 movies! YAY!

Jim Current info has plans for Catching Fire to be released in Nov 2013 but they have not developed a script yet for the movie. I think it will hinge heavily on how well Hunger Games actually does in theaters. There may be a lot of ticket pre-sales based on anticipation, but if the movie fails to bring in an audience once released or fails to make money compared to the budget, I doubt they would sink movie into a second or third movie.

Personally, I don't see how they could split any of the books into 2 movies. I don't think there is the depth and length to make two full movies out of either Catching Fire or Mockingjay. That is also not a trend that can be repeated successfully very often.

i dint know about the slpit???


Abbie Yeah, I am SUPER obsessed with anything and everything Hunger Games - soo, (knowing me) I was watching a bunch of interviews with Jennifer Lawrence (Katniss) and Josh Hutcherson (Peeta)and Jennifer said that that is what they were gonna do, sooo...yeah, thats how I figured it out...

RP i think they've started working on catching fire....


message 16: by Elia (new) - rated it 4 stars

Elia Catching fire has a release date set for late in 2013, according to IMDB, but they have not started filming as far as I know, and the IMDB page only has Jennifer Lawrence listed as "attached" which means she has not finalized a contract. But,. I can't imagine that they won't. It's going to be huge.


Allie I read in a magazine that they are starting to make the second one already... so i would say that they are gonna make movies for all three :)


Olivia Land They said that the last movie is going to be put into 2 movies like Harry Potter and Twilight. But i think if they would put any book into 2 movies it should be Catching Fire and stop where Katniss is rscued and is going crazy trying to talk to Haymitch and Finnick. But for Mockinjay they should stop where Peeta is rescued and is chocking her- nice cliffhanger.

Emma Mecham I hope they do. I bet once they make the first people will want more. I know I will!:D


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

They are, but what they're going to do is copy every other single series that's been turned into a movie and split the last book into two movies. To be honest, if they split it into two, all they're really going to have is a boring political movie and then a war movie. I STILL can't wait for the first movie and the second is (hopefully) going to be amazing! :)

AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!

Danielle It depends on how well it goes with the first movie--if it turns out to be a let down, they'll probably cancel the two upcoming projects. Which is why I'm so hard trying not to get my hopes up. Because the trailer was so bad, if I hadn't read the book, I would have never seen the movies.


Alyssa Ik ..... I'm watching the cast (PEETA!!!) talkin bout the hunger games!!!! Omg KATNISS!!!!

Now when has one bad movie ever stopped Hollywood from making a sequel? ;-)

There's tons of money to be made. They'll be making more, I'm sure.


Danielle they are...the realise date for catching fire is November 22, 2013 (it was in a magazine)


Kristin Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, & Woody Harrelson all signed contracts for 4 movies. That was before they even started on the 1st one.

Erin Yeah, I heard 4 movies for the 3 books

Yeah, ik...I am really excited, + I doubt that they would turn back now....

they already have the script!! i read it on hungergamestrilogy.tumblr.com but i dont think you will find the post cause its a pretty old post!


message 31: by [deleted user] (new)

they will DEFINITELY make catching fire and mockingjay movie. look at twillight. the twilight is a dissapointing movie but they continue to make the second,third,fourth and fifth movie

i heard that too!


Grace They've already signed on for FOUR movies.

Hopefully they make Catching Fire into 2 parts instead of Mockingjay..
Mockingjay would be awwwfuullly loooooong in 2 parts.


Carmela November 22, 2013 Catching Fire

And awful in general.


Kristen I hope so!!! it'd be really stupid if they put all three into one movie, like they did for The Series of Unfortunate Events.

I'd be happy to spend money to go see four movies instead of three :)


Tania Just adding that I read somewhere, I can't point where exactly since I have read a lot about this, that they didn't completely like the idea of 4 movies because it seemed liked they would drag things...

I agree, I think 3 movies would be great... Either way I AM SO EXCITED!


[Coco] Okay, so if they do make four movies, what movie should they cut in half? catching fire or mockingjay? and when? (during when in the book?)


Olivia Land I would spilt it with the first movie is the first book the second movie stops with KAtniss passes out from the electricity and before they pick her up. Then the 3rd movie is Katniss figuring out Peeta is gone untill they get Peeta back and hes strangling her. The 4th movie is the rest of the Mockingjay. The 3rd and 4th movie will prbley be a boring politics movie though.


Alyssa EEEEEEEPPP!!!!!!!!!! they always split the last movies in half...... AAAHHH MORE TO WATCH!!!!!


message 43: by Erin (new) - rated it 5 stars

Erin I am with you on that!! I think 4 movies gives us more!


Alyssa IKR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D


Lauren I just want to know who is going to play finnick. Please be garrett hedlund :)


Natalie They will probably end the first movie so there are no indications for a second film. Kinda' like what they did with Percy Jackson. Just in case they don't make a lot of money off the first movie


Alyssa ): that's a sad thought :(


Lauren There is not a chance in hell that they will not make the rest of the movies. The screenplay for catching fire is already written and gary ross gave it to suzanne collins to read to see if she approves of it. they are currently looking for a casting director


Hannah Yeah. They are making four movies, cause they are making part 1 and part 2 for the last one.


Kelani I think the movie will come out and people will flock to watch it like they did Twilight and then people will read the books more than they are now! They've already decided to work on movie number 2 starting in July!
