NEW HUNGER GAMES TRAILER
Feb. 3rd, 2012 07:57 amThere seems to be some talk about whether or not Madge will appear in the movie, seeing as how she's the one who gives Katniss the Mockingjay pin after the reaping and both her and the pin are significant in the later books, and in the trailer it appears that Katniss is giving the pin to Prim before the reaping happens. We can't really judge based on the trailer alone, they edit things to make it presentable and not really give too much away. From what we've seen so far, they've stuck really close to the book, at least in my opinion. I will be kind of disappointed if Madge doesn't make an appearance or if they can't work around the symbolic significance the Mockingjay pin represents, if they do intend on making a second and third film after this, mostly because I really want to see that relationship between Katniss and Madge presented on the screen and such. But again, we'll see how it goes.
Other than that, I just want to mention that I love that this is the second trailer we've seen that doesn't show anything of the actual Games itself or focusing on the so-called "romance" parts. It's essentially about Katniss, her devotion to her family, and her survival. As it should be.
AND CAN I MENTION THIS FOR A SECOND THOUGH? I MEAN SERIOUSLY.

But yeah, they've already signed up for three more films, so who knows. Mockingbird is being split into two.

Date: 2012-02-04 09:21 pm (UTC)It makes me sad that Madge won't be in the films, because not only would it have remained close to canon, but it would have given us a chance to see Katniss interacting with another girl (besides her sister.) Of course this could be changed, like they could just mention Madge by name in the film but never show her, and if they do continue might just cast her after? idk....

And Katniss/Cinna? Yes, please. :)

Date: 2012-02-04 09:26 pm (UTC)I'm also pretty sure Madge won't be in it, because they had to make trade offs to make the movie work and it was easier/more cost effective/whatever to cut Madge. (Although I hope I'm wrong.)
Possibly. Although I'm hoping if they plan on making more films after this that they won't cut her out completely. Like, they could just mention her by name in this one and then have her later for Catching Fire and Mockingjay. Either way, I just hope that the significance of the Mockingjay pin won't be tarnished if they decide to not include her entirely.
Never mind I found the relationship between Katniss and Madge very interesting, and would have loved to see that interaction on the big screen.
