Same here

Took them til the last 20 minutes to remember that was the point of the movie though.

What about Metal Gear Solid and Big Boss?

Yeah but why? He was good right up until the last 2o mins & suddenly was bad for no good reason.

Eh? I remember it extremely differently

I'm sure that relationship will end well..... 😏🤫..... 😆🤣😆.

you have rabies!

Women sure do like the bad boys don't they?

@@Lonovavir in the end she ditched him.

She was his cousin.

Seriously when Slim Shady showed up in the third act, that’s all I could think about.

omg that's really good lol

Yeah, he kinda look like Eminem on his Slim Shady era with that haircut .

Paneminem 💀💀💀💀 That’s hilarious xD

Reply foe the algorithm. That s funny af.

That's the Mockingjays though. The Jabberjays are the one that record things.

@@MsBuchnerd both are the jabber Jay's. The mocking Jay's sing only.

The concept got used too many times in the book

Sure is. Thought it'd be even more creepy in the movie. And yes, it's the jabberjays. The mockingjays can't form words.

@@jeffertbillings7835 couldn't be more wrong.. the evolution of the mocking jay and the yet to be revealed origin (the 50th hunger games) of the mocking jay pin, the symbol of the series arc.. unintended consequences developing in closed systems, like birth defects from inbreeding, or breeding resistance from authoritarian control, the mocking/jabber ARE the story. Katniss is the swamp potato that feeds hope, The songbird is the churchbell tolling for an empire in decline, Suzanne Collins has shown patience and vision in revealing her story, all threading fluidly and from chapter 1.

Same 😒😔

I can breathe 😐

Thought he said in a log somewhere

@@MalissiaCreates It was in a log

​@@MalissiaCreatesooops fixed it, ty!

They could have cut 20 minutes of singing from the movie 😫

Made me miss the whistling...

Sounds like a call back to Gladiator: Proximo to Maximus - Make the crowd love you, and you will win your freedom.

​@@marieroberts5664it makes sense, considering the hunger games are based on the gladiator's fights

Singing that way is a straight way to getting haters😂

Sure, yet she continued to sing even after she won.

@@fredpalladino6189 Lmao

Thissss!!!!

I wanted to see the 11th games.

We already know how he won his Game though. The book literally states he used the forcefield to throw the District 1 females axe back at her. All we'd really get is more backstory on his life and some stuff leading up into the Games but like we generally already know what we need to know from him. It's better to focus on stories that haven't been told like the 25th Games.

​@@madamehoefyre1808by the logic of the book covered it why bother making the movie at all since the book covered it already. Dont be so dumb for the sake of being contrary.

Untrue? No. A simplification? Yes. Even when he's framed his best friend, quite far along on the villain journey, he breaks down in tears and says sorry.

It's not uncommon. That's what rabies does

Yeah, it makes your body reject water, but it doesn't make you *literally scared* of water, like the guy in the scene seems to freak out at the sight of it.

@@muraalia Ah that's the word. Yeah, I knew it was "scared" but wasn't sure how to phrase it.

The rabies always make me wonder:How on earth has such a virus not only managed to develop,but to stick around...@@muraalia

​@@muraaliahydrophobic that's the word you're looking for(or at least the scientific term) rabies makes the body hydrophobic because it's transferred via saliva and the less water you have the more foamy your saliva is and more potent the contaminant so a bite is more likely to transfer the virus that's why foaming mouth is the most recognizable trait for rabies

4:43 pushing the snowjanus agenda haha :D

He goes from shirt allergy to Eminem real quick

Ending on a cliffhanger was an improvement for that franchise, actually made you care what happened next (for a few seconds anyway)

I mean, the studio's wishes are pretty relatable ngl

But the first one was at least a moderate financial success for Lionsgate. Not something Lionsgate has had much experience with since 2015. John Wick is the biggest franchise these days and, while profitable, it isn't a big cash cow.

​@@88porpoiseBecause John Wick is not about YA, it's about action movies about a guy who lost his dog who lives in a complicated world where everyone is assassin.

@@margarethmichelina5146 still the best thing Lionsgate has had going for nearly a decade

In the movie it was just a water bottle knocking him down, though. He didn't have time to be scared of it😂

He's never heard of hydrophobia 👍

Same I loved it

Me too loved it

You gotta be high dude, that movie mixed everything up and it wasn't even close to the book.

same, i thought they fumble in last 20 min untill i read the book and found out so did the book

Book is way better imo

Jennifer Lawrence made it work while the actress of this didn’t

​@chimera9818 The book is entirely written from Corialanus' POV so the actress of Lucy has nothing to do with it. We actually never learn about her thoughts. We only see her through the distorted eyes of Snow.

​@@chimera9818 tell me you didn't read the book without telling me you didn't read the book lol

I am honestly surprised to see the hate for the movies here. I always thought them to be better than the books tbh

@@rumpelstilzchen7871 it's been a while since I read the books, but I remember hating the third hunger games book because it just felt like we were following an irrelevant character doing nothing while all the action was happening around her. Which was actually sort of true - but in the book it was just awful and boring but in the movie you could better see all that was happening around her and it worked so much better. I would probably say I think the first book was better than the movie, and the second was so/so, but the third movie(s) were definitely much better than the book. haven't seen this newest one or read the book so no idea bout them!

The only good Hunger Games movie is Battle Royale.

@@KneppaH Which directly inspired it.

@@claytonrios1 Yeah and if they ended with the first movie it would have been great inspiration.

Yeah which is not really a fair review!

@@CM-pf1xcwell to be fair, it’s called “Honest trailers” not “Fair reviews” lol

All the snow puns in the movie were so dumb and glorious

i read the book and i loved what they did here !

Movie is fantastic. This channel is so picky lately. I watched their take on another movie (I’ve forgotten it gonna check now 😅) and they were completely wrong about it

Yeah. I never really was into the hunger games originally. Never saw the first movies or the books before seeing it, but I liked this movie so much, it got me to read all the books (still haven’t seen the other movies tho)

I did too, I thought they did a pretty good job adapting the book. Especially considering it could (and probably should) have been two movies

I enjoyed the first two parts, but once he became a Peacekeeper, the film just dragged on and on. (No, I haven’t read the book yet.)

True story: quoting Anchorman helped me win $100,000 on "Who wants to be a millionaire?"

Yeah, i knew exactly what that guy had once he shown to be afraidbof water after being bitten by a bat. It was so obvious, idk why HT said it was wrong. It's right.

100% this; hydrophobia is a well documented symptom of rabies.

@@nolamedgirlbecause it's not fear of the water, it's fear of the acute pain caused when drinking any liquid while rabid (the throat spasms and constricts under the influence of the virus so that the virus has a better chance of spreading through saliva).

It's because the throat gets so inflamed that swallowing anything hurts too much. They're not actually afraid of the water.

@@spangelicious837 while that is true, drinking can also lead to cramping, making some rabies patients instinctively afraid of water

HEZAGOODBOYEE!

Give Jake a boop on the snoot for all of us.

Very much agreed

"he" 😔

And some people thought the films were bad adaptations of the original trilogy.

that's a lot of words to say it's crap

The book was crap, too.

He sings Gem of Panem in the book

@@04nbodwell technically Grandma sang it for a sec so does that count?

Theres lots of songs in the book, its cool they kept them

It was definitely intentional. That's why suzanne wrote the books in the first place. She wrote the prequel because she had something new to say on society

We just need a Hunger Game in a Thunderdome with Tina Turner helping Judge Dredd pick tributes while replicants build off world colonies for us. At least we'll get flying cars out of it.

​​@@symmonei like the Hunger Games novels, but they didn't explore new territory at all. Battle Royal (The book, not the movie) did an excellent job of telling a similar story earlier.

@@Hypotetiskt Yeah but I don’t know how well known Battle Royale was in America back then. Hunger Games supercharged that plotline in the West, no doubt about it.

@@symmone Except it says nothing new at all. fascism, consumerisms, reality TV, oppression have always existed in this world. nothing deep or new in this prequel.

Rumor has it they lose him after the bunker scene and his secretary's last seen riding a bicycle west.

That was a very _Brown_ joke lol

Not really.

@@jamielondon6436no, they were.

Maybe if you actively hated the movie.

Right LMFAO like sorry one of the main characters is a singer? Were they tired of Katniss shooting arrows?

And also they were excellent and made sense in context 🤷‍♀

ig people can't differentiate musical vs movies with several songs in them TBOSAS movie only features like what, 6 songs?

@@BabaCorva Exactly the songs are good and work in every scene, don't understand the complaint honestly

@@TheIqram12 Yeah, I really miss when movies has more songs in their narratives

Except it's wrong. This movie was amazing. Honest Trailers have become just hating on everything. Even when it's good, they just say everything bad

@@khonshugodofthenightsky2159 lol it isn't

the movie has songs. It's automatically bad jsjsjsj​@@khonshugodofthenightsky2159

@@KneppaH yeah it is

@@mariposa9506 The only people I've seen say the movie was good are those who read the book and can fill in all the gaps the movie left. For the average movie goer, it didn't make much sense

Right? He looks like Malfoy and Eminem had a baby. Not Kiefer Sutherland.

Same!!!

She is a kind and selfless person. I feel really sorry for her, especially when she realised what type of man her brother had become. And of course the fact that she had helped him all the way. 😢

"it"

pretty much lmao

Wtf have you been watching? Cus you must not have been watching: Spider-verse, Oppenheimer, They Cloned Tyrone, or Boy & the Heron. Even Super Mario Bros was better than this. Despite the strikes, 2023 wasn't that bad. There were a handful of great shows, too (Loki, Last of US, The Bear, and One Piece Live Action). + Several blockbuster anime came out of Japan: One Piece(Gear 5), JJK S2(Shibuya arc), Zom 100, Oshi no Ko, end of Attack on Titan, etc.

@@kingace6186I liked this movie more than Mario.

You should have watched more movies then

Oh no sagacious cinema goers have invaded, please take you uppity taste elsewhere

Normally I’m a “stop while you’re ahead” kind of person when it come to franchises but Suzanne Collins is so good at it. Haymitchs but especially Finnicks games would be so so amazing. We don’t get any information about finnicks games at all and I’ve always thought that was such a shame.

Johanna’s games!!!

Part of what I think makes her writing so enthralling is the fact that you don’t get to see everything. It makes it truer to real life: all the people we meet and who come into our lives, whose stories, however impactful, we only know pieces of. Because we’re all of us living our own stories and are just characters in somebody else’s.

Wait, what? The hunger games continue after the revolution where finnick and Annie's kid can win? I thought there was just one more games with the capitol's children and then it was over

@@adidi7789and isn’t that even not done bc Katniss kills Coin??

Apparently it's an Anchorman quote, but singing it would have made for an awesome double reference!

While we’re at it, have you noticed how much Jack Dorsey looks like Dinklage ever since Dorsey went full Rasputin?

⁠Words can mean more than their basic meaning. Hydrophobia is both a fear of water (psychological) and a specific condition caused by rabies that is not the “fear of water” but instead a physiological reaction characterized by painful spasms in the throat when drinking or thinking about drinking water. Rabies devours the nervous system and causes the symptoms. While a person with rabies-induced hydrophobia might develop psychological hydrophobia, they might not (and the character in the film had not shown the development of such a fear). The statement “rabies causes the fear of water” is just a misunderstanding of the term, similar to yours. Unfortunately the writer/director didn’t look into rabies any beyond the surface level and therefore portrayed the condition incorrectly on the screen.

@@kentloofbourrow7358 Good to know, thanks for the breakdown.

I’m sure that’ll be next

You mean you take these seriously?😂 This movie was one of my favorites I’ve seen recently but I can still find the jokes in this funny. They aren’t supposed to be serious reviews.

So every movie with "Ballad" or "Song" is expected to have excessive singing in it? Huh, guess I missed all the singing in The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

@@CoralCopperHead ...there WAS singing in Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Buster himself sang a song in his short and in the last one they sang a variation on "Streets of Laredo." A ballad is a song which tells a story. Having that in the title of your movie doesn't make it a musical, but it does suggest thematic ties to storied music. In other words, if "ballad" is in the title, it doesn't HAVE to be a musical or have musical themes, but one should not be surprised when it does.

I watched it completely cold, and I enjoyed it much more than the last two Hunger Games movies. It dials down on the YA tropes, and amps up the social commentary.

@@tcchip ah yeah the social commentary was spectacular. It moved me way more than I thought it would

@@dango6266 Yeah, I think it's a smart decision to recognize that the original target YA audience would have already grown up, so The Ballad of Songbird and Snakes has a more mature take while still being accessible enough for a new YA crowd. I don't know why this movie (and Rachel Zegler) was getting so much hate. While it's no Oscar contender, it's very solid overall, and I'm not even a fan of The Hunger Games to begin with.

@@tcchip honestly the hate seems very disingenuous. I came out of the movie, moved by a beautiful story. And there wasn't a thing (besides MAYBE some pacing issues at the end) that I could call bad. And the hate towards the actress itself is really terrible. She was AMAZING at her job and the singing was beautiful. Also, why are so many people hating on her singing? It's LITERALLY CALLED A BALLAD. Plus her singing is amazing so who cares.

@@dango6266 when I told friends I watched this movie, they were almost aghast at the idea. I told them to just leave their preconceived notions at the door and watch it for what it is. I had no expectations for the movie, and I actually came away quite impressed and feeling it was one of the better films from mainstream Hollywood in what's otherwise been a very formulaic year.

Happy Birthday

@@pickled323 Thank you!!!!!! 😊

I know. How about no one, and just not make the movie? But if that's not the option, I guess why not

Bioshock's best moment was finding out that you were being controlled the entire game. Movies are passive so there would be no impact in watching it.

I'd prefer Guillermo del Toro but Francis Lawrence will try his best

You are just programmed to accept mediocrity 😂 The only redeeming thing about this movie was the actor portraying Snow, the other characters were so forgettable that only thanks this Honest Trailer that I remembered "oh yeah, these idiots were in the movie"

Even though I haven't seen it yet, I'm inclined to agree. I'm still waiting to see which movies are up for "Best Picture." I think they should just skip that award this year and just pray for next year 😆

@@DenLim123 Bro it's his opinion, don't hate on ppl for liking movies you might not like, and I'm sure you're a fan of plenty of things other people might not really like, so don't be an asshole to people who have different opinions.

@@DenLim123 You are just programmed to auto hate anything mainstream because your favorite influencer told you to.

@@SwordsmanMercenary this was hated by a majority of people so I'm the one programmed to hate anything mainstream? Good one clown.
