(whispering) Please be Mockingjay.
YE--It's totally a Mockingjay trailer.
Yes!
I am so [bleep] excited! I shouldn't--
(Katniss) I just wanted to save my sister...
and keep Peeta alive.
(President Snow) Miss Everdeen...
it's the things we love most...
that destroy us.
I feel like this series...I don't know...
it seems a little overdone.
Not the pin.
Still haven't read any of them.
Oh! I want that.
(Peeta) I want everyone who's watching...
to lay down their weapons now.
- (Katniss) You're alive. - My bay! My bay!
(Haymitch) Peeta is the calf.
Everytime I see Woody Harrelson in it, I can't take him serious!
(Katniss) We will rescue Peeta at the earliest opportunity,
- or you will find another Mockingjay. - You said it, Katniss.
Don't let them push you around!
I remember the first one. I was like, "What is this?"
The second one, I'm like, "Yes! This is good."
And then the third one, I'm like...
Oh, Natalie. That chick from Game of Thrones is in there.
There's hardcore guns and explosions in this one.
I'm so hyped for this.
I'm so hyped. I'm so hyped. I'm so hyped!
Oh, I wanna see this movie so bad.
How does an arrow take out a plane?
Wait, part one? Part one?!
No! (laughs)
I can't wait. Oh my god!
Sometimes at school, I do that whistle.
And every once in a while, I get a response.
And it's the greatest thing ever.

(Finebros) So, have you seen the first two Hunger Games movies?
No.
I haven't seen any of them.
I've only seen the first one.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes!
I have seen both.
I have, yes.
I have seen the first two movies.
Of course I have!
I watched it seven times in two days.
(Finebros) Not a lot of people haven't watched the Hunger Games!
I know! I don't know why they haven't interested me.
If I had seen that without knowing what it was, I'd think
that was some really cool horror movie, and I would want to go see it.
But now I'm like, "I don't know."
(Finebros) So it looks good to you, but because it's The Hunger Games,
you're not interested. Explain that!
Don't...don't believe the hype.
(Finebros) Did you enjoy the first two movies?
Yeah. They were good.
Yeah, I liked the second one a lot better than the first.
I enjoyed both of them immensely, but I definitely think
the second one was better.
I think they change too much, or they leave out too much,
or they just over-do it in the movies.
The first movie did not do the book justice,
but then the second movie, because it got a new director,
really was accurate to the book.
And so I'm really hoping that, because they're doing Mockingjay
in two movies, that they're gonna really stick to the book.
(Finebros) Do you feel that when a movie or TV show is based on a book
that comes out, it makes people read the books more?
Or do you think it makes them read it less?
If people know of the movie before they read it,
then they're definitely going to wait for the movie.
Definitely is another excuse not to read the book
because...why would you if it's gonna be played out right in front of you?
I want to say that it encourages kids to read the books more,
but it really doesn't.
My sister, she's watched both of The Hunger Games,
but she refuses to read it. She's just like,
"No, I'm not down. I don't like reading.
I don't wanna read that."
I feel like it makes them read it more 'cause I usually don't read it
until I hear about it.
I think it made them read the book more. Its popularity skyrocketed
once the movie came out.
Some people I know, they're gonna go,
"I don't want the next movie to be spoiled for me,
so I'm not gonna go read the books."
But other people are gonna be like, "Oh, I have to know what's happening now."
For me, I don't really like reading that much.
So when a movie comes out, I'm like, "[bleep] the book.
I don't need this."
But then I have to wait X amount of months for the movie to come out
and I'm banging my head against the table 'cause I'm like, "This was so good!"
So that's actually why I read the books.
(Finebros) What part of Mockingjay are you most excited to see
- on the big screen? - Peeta. (laughs)
Just Peeta.
I wish it was all him.
Anything with Josh Hutcherson.
When they go rescue [SPOILER].

(Finebros) Even though up to this point it was one book for one movie,
now that it's the last book, they're breaking it up into two different movies.
Like every other movie nowadays! Oh my god.
(Finebros) What do you think about that?
I'm excited because that's just more movies.
Yeah, I love movies. Why not?
It's obviously for money.
If you divide it into two parts, that's more profit.
I hate it!
It pisses me off.
You can make one movie out of it.
You did it with all the other ones too.
For Harry Potter, I think it was really smart of them to do it.
I mean, that book's 800 pages.
Mockingjay, and Divergent, and May, I'm like, "Really?"
If the book doesn't call for it, you don't need to do it.
(Finebros) One of the stars, Philip Seymour Hoffman,
passed away before he could finish both movies, but will be appearing in it.
Are you familiar with any of his other work?
I liked Capote. That was amazing.
I was very fortunate to have a second of his time
at the Catching Fire premier and I have his autograph on my poster.
He's an amazing actor. I just haven't really had a chance
to watch his work, though I want to.
(Finebros) Do you think that the hype for The Hunger Games now
is the same, or is it less than it was a few years ago,
- when the first movie was coming out? - I don't know.
I mean, I read The Hunger Games when the hype started to happen.
I just think it keeps getting bigger and bigger 'cause everyone knows
the finale's happening.
Nobody talks about The Hunger Games.
I haven't heard anything about the new movie.
When the first movie came out, everyone's like, "Oh, Hunger Games!"
But now nobody even talks about that.
I was in middle school when the first one came out.
Everyone at my school would always talk about it,
and they were freaking out.
Even though this trailer's out, no one--I didn't even realize
the trailer was out. No one has talked about it at all!
(Finebros) So what do you want to say to the people out there
that have chosen not to read the books or see the movies because of hype?
Let's make a club.
Don't be biased, bro.
That's exactly how I felt. I thought there was gonna be
too much hype, but you gotta go watch it.
It's pretty good.
Stop being such a freaking hipster!
Get your head out of your butt and stop pretending
you're one of those people like, "I'm a non-conformist.
And just 'cause everyone likes it, I can't like it."
You're missing out, so if you can live with that...
then you do you. But...(chuckles)
If that's your reason, you're just a giant hipster.
It's lame.
Shut the [bleep] up. Read the [bleep] book.
(Finebros) We're gonna end the episode the same way we've done
when we covered The Hunger Games before.
Do you plan to see Mockingjay Part 1 at midnight, opening weekend,
but not at midnight, sometime in the theatre,
but not opening weekend, later at home, or not at all?
Um...probably at home sometime later.
Never.
I'll probably see it opening weekend.
Probably see it opening weekend.
In the theatre, but not on opening weekend.
I won't watch it. (laughs)
Opening weekend.
I'll probably watch it at home.
In theatres.
The last two movies I camped out at the Los Angeles premiere,
so that's the plan again this year.
Seeing it at midnight. I'm taking all my friends,
we're gonna see it at midnight.
I'll be like, "YEAAAAAH! GO KATNISS!"
