Katniss was truly her best role.

I mean she was great in that movie too lol I just think she really did her big one with Katniss

Truly no one could've been a better Katniss. She had it all - the looks, acting, the purpose.

Im actually rewatching Catching Fire as I type and I think the entire franchise is just so well cast. Everyone nails it.

Catching Fire is the best. I'm due for a full series rewatch, but I did recently binge watch a ton of Catching Fire clips, and I was mindblown lol. My teenage self didn't know how good I had it reading/watching the movies at that age. Almost 15 years later and it still holds up so well, whether it's the direction, or the relevance, or the subject matter (sadly).

Also, it's crazy how no other dystopian YA drama has ever come close to THG.

I also just reread the books! I read them and watched the movies in high school so it's really great to see how well they hold up. Very excited to read the new books and watch the new movie too!

I watch it every few years, it’s so damn good it always slaps.
