[YMS] The Walking Dead part 3 review is out now on YourMovieSucks.org.
It will be on YouTube within a week but you can watch it there early.
So I just watched the Hunger Games and what the fuck were you expecting?
I don't understand why any of you guys saw it.
You should be smarter than that.
If you liked the first one then you'll like this one. If you didn't like the first one, you wont like this one.
Me, I felt like it was just a really mediocre stupid movie.
There weren't any features in this whole movie that stuck out as above average.
It's got mediocre written all over it.
Now I think Jenifer Lawrence is a pretty good actor but she wasn't good in this movie.
I don't know if i should blame the new director or what but her performance
felt really disingenuion.
When she woke up from a bad dream and started screaming I almost burst out laughing.
And many of the other performances were extremely robotic.
Most notably Prim.
(Monotone voice) Things are so emotional right now but this exactly is how I'm going to talk.
(Monotone voice) This is what the director is asking me to do.
Everything in the movie is explained simply enough for a thirteen year old to understand.
(Sarcastically) Hmm, I wonder why?
Not only am I going to point out that Phillip Seymour-Hoffman has a force field around him,
but I'm also going to point out how everything has a structural weakness.
(sarcastically) I wonder if that's going to come in to play later.
My biggest problem with the movie is that it was the exact same as the first one.
It wasn't the Hunger Games 2, it was the Hunger Games Again.
Every single event that happened up until the last five minuets of the movie is a carbon copy.
It even starts with Katniss and Gale hunting. Again.
And holy shit, when she started hallucinating it was the cheesiest fucking thing.
Another funny part in the movie is when they're at the funeral of someone that died in the first movie.
Everything gets really artificially dramatic and all the sudden one old dude in the crowd does this:
♪♫ (Whistles) ♪♫
But for some reason people get beaten up for doing that throughout the whole movie
as long as they're not in district twelve.
When the people in district twelve do it, its showing thanks, admiration and goodbye to a loved one.
But as soon as anybody in a different district does the exact same thing they're like
"no we gotta beat you up you're part of the rebellion."
Despite this movie being a carbon copy there were not nearly as many
annoying characters in the first movie.
The old woman who didn't talk, she was really annoying.
The crazy lady that just kept going "Tick-tock tick-tock tick-tock",
was also really annoying.
Considering we've seen pretty much everything in the first movie already,
I was kind of expecting them to just brush past some of the scenes.
Ya know, let us know that the events occurred without showing them in full length
because we've already seen it.
But no its apparently just as important the second time.
And I love how the characters were like, "oh, now were up against people that have
also been winners in the hunger games so now its super dangerous."
But wouldn't you know it, everybody that shows up to kill them just immediately dies.
Its really difficult to make me feel as though the characters are in danger when
everything's so god damn convenient.
Oh no, the fog is slowly rolling towards me.
I'm going to stick my finger out and touch the very edge of the fog and be like
"oh no, ouch ooh its poisoned"
and roll around for fuckin' like five whole seconds,
"but the fog hasn't caught up to me yet. And by the time I start running and tell
everybody else to run the fog is fucking twenty meters away and we have
a good chance to get away even though I just touched it with my fucking finger."
And it keeps happening throughout the scene.
One of them gets slightly engulfed by the fog but not really.
Like, not enough so that they would die, and the fogs like "I'll just wait here.
You can have a head start. Don't worry, I'll catch up to you later."
And then when everyone's too injured to move the fog stops right before them.
And before you can even ask "hmm, I wonder how they're going to do the rest
of this movie when they're so horribly injured like this?"
Katniss sticks her hand into a pond that's right next to her and goes
"uhh, it helps. Uhh, UHH, it hurts but it helps."
And then they fucking just swim in it and its all better.
All the fucking boils on their skin are just gone.
It was a really really funny scene, though.
Come on people, this movie is so fucking cheesy.
When Peter runs into a force field and his heart stops and they have to do CPR on him and then shes like
"Is you heart fine?" hes like "It is now."
Get it? Because the heart is the human symbol for love and he loves her
so hes secretly saying I still love you.
But why didn't the cannon go off when his heart stopped?
For every single other character it goes off right away.
Including the character that kinda drowned at the beginning.
You can save someone from drowning too.
So you cant just say that the cannon never went off because his death was still reversible.
Why is it that someone is allowed to volunteer as tribute,
but the same person who was supposed to go first doesn't have final say?
How come they cant just say no I volunteer?
Why didn't that happen?
Oh, that's just the rules they make and it just so happens to conveniently fit the narrative of
"Oh no Peetas in the games with me again."
The only part of the movie that was any different from the first was the last five minuets.
And it kinda felt anti-climactic.
It was just like, oh here's the end. It's the end now.
At the end of the movie Jenifer Lawrence just stares through the screen, glaring down the little girls being like
"you better fuckin' watch the next movie. You want to see Josh Hutcherson don't you?
Isn't he hot? We didn't even make him an amputee like he was in the books."
So despite this movie obviously not being for me, I think it knows its target audience pretty well.
Even though I found it to be extremely stupid, chances are it knows how stupid it is
and its trying to be stupid so that stupid people can understand the movie.
I'm not saying that if you like this movie you are stupid but the movie definitely tried to be stupid inclusive.
I don't think anybody should be surprised. Everybody knows exactly what they're walking into.
And everybody that's going to like it is going to like it,
and everybody that's not going to like it isn't going to like it.
I mean, come on, there was a fucking Justin Beiber fragrance commercial before the movie started.
I'm giving this one a five point five out of ten.
