Watching "Mockingjay" in 2023 is an...interesting experience.

"President Snow blew up a hospital!" My god, what kind of an absolute monster would do such a thing? Lucky this is just fiction, haha.

Directed by Francis Lawrence, who put his name to the letter praising Joe Biden for not demanding a ceasefire in Gaza. Brought to you by Paramount Pictures, the company that just fired Melissa Barerra for speaking out against genocide in Palestine.

Me to the fan artists who include Peeta's prosthetic leg and Katniss and Peeta's postwar burn scars in their art:

Me to the filmmakers who decided to cut these character details from the movies:

#the hunger games #peeta mellark #katniss everdeen #gary ross #francis lawrence #everlark #love you fan artists you're the best #seriously it's so rare that artists don't include these character details #like wow their characters are worthy of art without having to be “”“perfect”“” looking!!

“The Valley Song” might be different in the books, but Francis Lawrence was WILD FOR THIS 💀

With his OCD and generally Disastrous™️ mental state, the seed of his destruction was planted from the moment Katniss uttered her name on Reaping Day.

But some moments are EXTRA 🤣

Think about it. The games were going on, Katniss & Peeta had already gotten already under his skin more than he liked, he was pissed at Seneca— both for the rule change and for not just killing the girl already, especially after the fires in Eleven. But no great matter. They’re children. They’ll be dead soon. Let them squirm for the crowd a little, put something besides riots on the air.

The doughboy was lying there, blood oozing out of that disgusting leg. The girl tended him—clumsily. He shouldn’t have even had it on, could have just waited for a missive from the Gamemakers—but he told himself, it’s better this way, to watch them die, and kept it on in the background. Besides, if he watched, he could break the news gently to his granddaughter.

The boy chattered, delirious. The girl was trying to shush him. At least she quit that dreadful singing. “I remember when you, you sang in music assembly,” the boy rambled. Snow heavy-sighed.

Then, “The teacher said, ‘Who knows the Valley Song?’”

Snow’s jaw clenched. His keyboard fell silent. He slowly faced the holo.

“And your hand shot straight up.”

He wished he could set that little snake on fire. He’d gladly light the match himself.

I'm still mad about that Francis Lawrence quote, this time on behalf of Lucy Gray.

What he said about Lucy Gray:

Lucy Gray is the opposite. She wears her sexuality on her sleeve, [and] she really is a performer.

“She loves crowds,” says Lawrence. “She knows how to play crowds and manipulate people.”

Lucy Gray Baird is sixteen years old. She lived through a war, her parents being violently killed, being forced to change her way of life to stay in one district as opposed to being nomadic, and it's implied she, no older than sixteen when it happened and likely younger, used her "sexuality" to provide for herself and the Covey (the oldest of which is only two or three years older than her--literally children looking after children). In the very least, she gave her heart to Billy Taupe, whose cheating on her resulted in Lucy Gray being reaped for The Hunger Games.

I will say that this Empire article is a snippet of what will be a longer piece, so maybe Lawrence goes more in depth about these traumas, but it's still so weird to me to put such an emphasis on Lucy Gray's sexuality and use a word like "manipulate" which reads so negative. It comes across very Coriolanus-minded to me. Because people have talked about how Lucy Gray and Peeta are the ones who are so similar. How well they can work in crowds and play the game. Yet Peeta's the one who played up his sexuality, in terms of his romance with Katniss and all of the on-camera kissing they had to do, and then dropping the baby bomb which leads people to believe Katniss and Peeta had sex before they actually did. But since Peeta is a boy, I doubt Lawrence would say something so similar as "Peeta wears his sexuality on his sleeve." But because Lucy Gray is a teenage girl, because Coriolanus becomes fascinated by her and he wants to possess her, because he thinks that she manipulates him through her sexuality, suddenly Lucy Gray is this Lolita-esque figure instead of a traumatized teenage girl who is trying to survive her whole life and find something good despite all of the horrible things that happen to her.

I feel so gross about this article.
