The Hunger Games	comment	The Hunger Games is the feature film adaptation of the book of the same name, directed by Gary Ross (Pleasantville, Seabiscuit). The film was released on March 23, 2012.In a dystopian future, the totalitarian nation of Panem is divided between 12 districts and the Capitol. Each year two young representatives from each district are selected by lottery to participate in The Hunger Games. Part entertainment, part brutal retribution for a past rebellion, the televised games are broadcast throughout Panem. The 24 participants are forced to kill their competitors while the citizens of Panem are required to watch.The film stars Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta, Liam Hemsworth as Gale, Woody Harrelson as Haymitch, Stanley Tucci as Caesar and Donald Sutherland as President Snow.Adaptations for the remaining novels were also made, with Ross being replaced by director Francis Lawrence. The Catching Fire movie was released in November 2013, and Mockingjay was split into two films, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 being released in 2014 and The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 in 2015. A prequel, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, was released in 2023.All character tropes must be moved to the proper character page.

The Hunger Games / int_108c268e	type	Hotter and Sexier
The Hunger Games / int_108c268e	comment	Hotter and Sexier: In the book, the yellow dress that Katniss wears at her final interview was supposed to be girlish and understated with a high, modest cut. In the movie, while not designed to overtly flaunt sex appeal, the dress's design is more mature than what's described in the book. Inverted with Glimmer's dress. In the book, she's described as wearing a translucent golden dress. However, in the movie, she girlishly bounces out on stage in a puffy white dress.

There is a brief shot of a toteboard for Capitol gamblers containing tribute information such as name, height, age, and weight.

The Hunger Games / int_23473ae7	comment	Adaptation Expansion: Since the book is written in first person from Katniss' perspective, the film adds scenes in the control room of the Hunger Games arena and President Snow's garden to give more information about the world where the story takes place. Seneca Crane is not identified at all in the first book, and is only mentioned posthumously in Catching Fire. The film turns him into a prominent character. After Rue dies, the film depicts District 11 going into a riot in reaction to Katniss' impromptu funeral for Rue and salute to them. This is also some Foreshadowing for the revolts which begin in Catching Fire. The film also allows you to see Gale's reaction to Katniss and Peeta in the games. The film also shows the explanation for the rule change to allow two tributes from the same district to win. Haymitch is able to convince Seneca Crane to change the rules to distract people from the District 11 riots. We also get a scene of Haymitch watching Katniss being trapped and wounded, then schmoozing with some Capitol bigwigs to send her the healing cream. We see Seneca being forced to commit suicide, which is actually a reference to an implied event in the second novel, Catching Fire, although the novel suggests he was executed. The District 6 boy that Cato gets into a fight with while training is named Jason.

The Hunger Games / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: Mostly involving the look of District 12 and the Capitol. The former was far more rural than it would be in later installments and the latter would have far more high-rises than we had seen here. Katniss is initially portrayed as brunette, while Jennifer Lawrence would later dye her hair black (which is her hair color in the books). The Peacekeepers wear modern riot gear with open helmets and visors, while the sequels would show them as Faceless Goons wearing enclosed body armor. The sequels had a different director than the original film, which comes through in the overall gritty, almost indie feel of the cinematography and music scoring of the first film. The later films are much more polished. Buttercup is depicted as black and white. The latter films would depict him as fluffy orange, closer to his description in the books.

Unlike in the books, it's not a formal agreement he makes with Katniss and Peeta that keeps him out of the bar. The film makes a clear point of displaying how he sobers up only after it becomes clear to him that Katniss and Peeta have a legitimate chance of surviving the games (and on several occasions he is reminded that tributes and children from other districts actually see being recruited for the games as a good thing, even fun).

The books mention Capitol citizens as often undergoing extensive body modifications and dyes that make them look almost inhuman.

Katniss' search for water, the District 3 boy's digging up and reactivating the mines for the Careers and Cato's death scene were also significantly shortened and Peeta gets to keep his leg. On the other hand, though, we get to see other things during the games, such as parts of the TV broadcast, the Gamemakers in their control room, and the riot that Katniss sparks in District 11, things that we only read Katniss speculate about in the books.

You could predict Seneca Crane's fate if you know anything about his namesake, the Roman Seneca the Younger. He was also forced to commit suicide by his superior, Emperor Nero. Katniss is named after a plant that is also called "arrowhead," referring to her weapon of choice. "Primrose" means "eternal love". "Rue" means "regret," referring to Kat's regret over her death.

She is frequently credited for being very clever for this. That very skill is what leads to her death when she unknowingly steals poison berries from Peeta. The irony? Had Peeta tried to intentionally leave them as a trap, she probably wouldn't have eaten them. It's a case where someone incredibly smart is brought down by overestimating the intelligence of her competitors. And at the conclusion of the film, the same fate is forced upon Seneca Crane, for his actions leading to both Katniss and Peeta making it out of the Hunger Games.

The Hunger Games / int_ac09dc0f	comment	Alas, Poor Villain: Cato. In the book, he's portrayed as a psycho Blood Knight who enjoys killing other tributes right down to when he dies. Here, he's more or less the same... until he's about to die. We then learn that his motives were to bring honor and respect for him and his District. He was also a career tribute, meaning that he was trained to kill from a very young age, and likely had no choice in the matter. Killing was all he knew. Combining all of these, plus his behavior at the end, implies that he was craving respect and recognition from people, which, in turn, implies that he was abused, neglected, unappreciated, ignored, or possibly all of the above. This may show that he feels the only way to be loved is to win. What's even sadder is, that assumption may have been true. Foxface wasn't really a villain in the book, mostly just being a parasite on the Careers, stealing their food and generally being sneaky. In the movie, we have a scene between her and Katniss where they bump into each other while running from the slaughter at the Cornucopia, look at each other in terror for a second, then silently run off in separate directions. This makes her seem a bit more like Katniss herself. Katniss even seems glum when finding out that Foxface is dead, and from a rather random death too. As in the original book (and possibly even moreso here), Glimmer in her death scene. She notably looks terrified as the tracker jackers surround her, negating any pleasure the audience could get out of her death. To a certain extent, Seneca Crane. The character seemed to possess a certain degree of honor and fair play judging by his awarding Katniss points and there's something poignant about the scene where he's given a Sadistic Choice wherein his death occurs either way - especially since, like most Capitol citizens, he appeared to be more conditioned into his way of thinking than genuinely evil.

The Hunger Games / int_acecb17d	comment	Chekhov's Skill: Katniss' hunting skills (via Gale's remark that she "practically lives in the forest") and familiarity with surviving in the wild. Katniss is told early on in training that the Careers can be very arrogant. It comes back to bite them when Clove decides to torture and mock Katniss instead of killing her, which leads to Thresh overhearing that Rue was killed, so he kills Clove in retaliation. Peeta's camouflage skills and strength from working in the bakery. The latter ends up being an advantage in the arena, but the former also ends up saving his life when he disguises himself in foliage after being brutally stabbed by Cato. During training, Rue manages to steal a knife from a competitor and hide unnoticed. Her stealth skills allow her to help Katniss escape from the Careers later, and later give Katniss the idea to get rid of the Careers' makeshift cornucopia. Early on in the game, Katniss sees a girl get killed after lighting a fire in the forest (which led the Careers to her position). She later uses the same tactic to draw the Careers away from their supplies. Cato showcases his ability to swiftly break necks after one of his partners fails to protect the food supply. At the climax he threatens to use it again on Peeta. Katniss shoots an apple out of a roasted pig's mouth. She later shoots a sack of apples to set off the alliance's mines.

The Hunger Games / int_c181a846	type	Dies Differently in Adaptation
The Hunger Games / int_c181a846	comment	Dies Differently in Adaptation: When Katniss cuts down the tracker jacker nest in the book, this kills two people from the Career alliance: Glimmer and the unnamed girl from District 4. In the film series, District 4 is not portrayed as being a Career district—only 1 and 2 are—so this girl is not part of the alliance and dies offscreen, seemingly in the Cornucopia battle, and Katniss's tracker jacker trick only kills Glimmer. Thresh technically dies offscreen in the book, but is more or less confirmed to have been killed by Cato in a days-long fight to the death that the latter eventually won, with Cato having pursued him in revenge after Thresh killed Clove and stole the District 2 backpack from the feast along with his own. He dies before Foxface and comes in fifth place. Here, he is still alive after Foxface dies and comes in fourth place, and is the first person attacked and killed by the muttations before they attack Katniss, Peeta, and Cato.

The Hunger Games / int_c39a5ef0	comment	Willing Suspension of Disbelief: In the book, Katniss gets clobbered by a much older and larger Clove when called to the Feast. In the film, supposedly 16 year old Katniss is played by an early-20s Jennifer Lawrence, and Clove has been aged down to 15, and on top of that, she's played by then-14 Isabelle Fuhrman, who was tiny for her age. The film version of this fight is not so believable when Clove is clearly half Katniss's size. The film handwaves the discrepancy as Clove simply being much more trained than Katniss, but even then, to expect that Katniss would one-sidedly lose to the much smaller Clove is a stretch. CinemaSins notes "age differences at this point in child development matter: Katniss should easily dominate this other girl."
