8:20 "I think she's going to have troubles with that; she just killed a placemat." 🤣🤣🤣🔪
Good catch Big Dream. I missed that funny comment.
Peeta actually has many brothers, but they are not much different in age to him, so they didn't volunteer. Also, in the book he burned the bread on purpose, so that his mother got angry and made him throw it out. That was the only way he could give the starving Katniss the bread.
The death of Rue is one of the saddest moments in cinema. The cruelty of the System is naked.
“They called their bluff!”
How do YOU make me cry where the movie does not!? Dasha, you are amazing, and the best reactor on TH-cam. No question.
Yeah lol I notice a lot of reactors misuse the phrase "called their bluff" (capitol actually folded to their bluff, not called) I think now it's just canon to assume it can mean either fold/call at this
Cinna is one of my favorite characters. The actor is Lenny Kravitz, more famous for his music(Are you going to go my way) than acting. Also the father of Zoe Kravitz.
An often-overlooked detail in Hunger Games is Foxface (dubbed so by Katniss in the book), the redhead girl who dies after eating the poisonous berries. A careful viewer might notice that earlier in the training sessions Foxface was performing excellently at identifying edible plants from poisonous, so her death by consuming poisonous berries couldn't have been a mistake. One can infer that she knew she stood no chance at winning the games (her lack of combat skills repeatedly hinted at with her reliance on stealth and thievery) and so chose a quick and painless suicide over the tender mercies of other tributes or the sadistic traps of the gamemasters. That neither Katniss nor Peeta recognizes it and assumes she just made a fatal mistake is another nice touch, demonstrating the limits of their in-universe perspective.
Also, the scene with the mutant dogs was much more gruesome in the book than in the movie, as all the mutants were described as having uncanny resemblance to the fallen tributes and implied to be engineered from their corpses to further mess with the minds of the tributes fighting them. In the same scene, Kato suffered an even more agonizing and protracted death because he was wearing body armor, the mutts mauling and ripping at him until sunrise with Katniss being unable to put him out of his misery.
She didn’t know plants well in the book at least. She actually depended on stealing the entire games, then when the “feast” happens, her package contains food. She didn’t know the berries would kill her. They don’t grow in her district. Plus she’s shown in the books to be trying very hard to stay alive
@@BobBob-qq9xn Then it is apparently an alteration made expressly for the movie. Still, a real nice detail to add to depth.
9:28 - "I like him" - that's Lenny Kravitz, a famous rock star who had a lot of hits in the nineties, such as It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over.
37:32 Hugo looking up at dasha. 🤣🤣
let's goooo dasha, let's go! 🐶
15:57 "Ok, well, _they_ are, right, they not losing any family members." 😆
22:21 "I wouldn't even be able to climb up on the tree." 😆
35:01 "Oh sh*t! They called their bluff. Uh hu. They called their bluff." ✅
Fun trivia. Conna is rock star Lenny Kravitz. Jennifer kept calling him Mr. Kravitz as she knew him as her good friend's dad. She worked with Zoey Kravitz on X-Men GmFirst Class.
Haymitch is such a tragic character; he won the games and went through all that trauma, then his reward was to mentor the others going through it, having to try and get sponsors for one of the poorest districts who no-one was interested in year after year and failing. No wonder he fell into depression and alcohol, think how terrible he must feel, no wonder he started not caring and not trying.
And secondly the reason they take two from every district is to create division. The whole point of the games is to create division to stop the districts rising against the capitol. The capitol is very wealthy and basically leeches off and oppresses the districts by keeping them poor, to stop them realising they’re the ones with the power when they’re together and rebelling they make sure they’ll never work together. So they create these giant televised events where (for example) all of district 8 hates district 6 because a kid from district 6 killed their tribute, by having 2 tributes from each district it keeps the districts internally unsettled as well as keeping the “girl/boy” balance.
Loved your reaction! And I would recommend reading the books if you ever feel like it, they’re very good.
36:05 it's HUGO everybody! Hi Hugo 👋🏼 🐶
The part when Rue died gets me every time. 🥲😭
aww poor pupper crying! they will always let you know what they need! I wish i could dog sit for you, that beautiful boy looks like alot of fun!
15:23 "Why do we have a winner? Why not round up 24 of them, at random, and execute them all?"
Such an act would give the districts a common _foe._ If they _all_ die at the hand of the Capital, that makes the Capital the enemy of all the districts, _together._ And if you bring all the districts _together,_ with a common _will,_ against the _Capital,_ that makes them a whole lot harder for the Capital to _fight._ No, you have to have the tributes kill each _other_ so the districts remain _divided._
It is a constant surprise for me that you don't have tissues as a regular fixture at your desk. Dasha, learn the lesson. Consider how many of the movies we refer you to bring tears to your eyes. They are sad, heavy movies. Keep tissues handy. _Always_ keep tissues handy.
28:10 "I just want to hug all of them."
awww 🤗
14:25 "Oh that's a mic drop, you know." 😆
4:25 No signature necessary when the Capitol has DNA records on everyone.
12:36 I read the novel on which this film is based, and it says that Peeta saw how close to death from starvation Katniss was, and he deliberately scorched the bread so his mom would be forced to have him throw it out to the pigs that they had. Peeta, as you've noticed, is an excellent baker. I highly recommend reading the novels by Suzann Hamilton first before watching each sequel film. And definitely read the prequel novel "A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes", the first to center on Coriolanus Snow in his youth prior to his ascension to the Presidency of Panem, and make sure you do it before Color Force Studios and Lionsgate produces the film adaptation.
12:47 In the novel, that weight was 100 pounds heavy, and Peeta threw it like it was a sack of flour.
13:23 This story is set some time in the future after a global cataclysm that decimated the Human population. It's speculated that Panem, in the area that we now call the United States, may very well be all that's left of Humanity around one hundred years after the cataclysm. Names will have changed by that time because language evolves over time.
13:56 She must have figured she'd miss the first shot because she's never laid her hands on that bow before. It's common knowledge amongst marksmen that you never know how a weapon you're not used to handling is going to work. Her second shot hit its mark because she knew after the first shot how to adjust her aim with that particular bow.
19:24 The subcutaneous tracker allows the Gamekeepers and Gamemaker to monitor the tributes' movements in the arena so they can adjust the game conditions to ensure a conflict and bring it to a proper resolution, so yes, they're being treated like animals in that sense. Celebrities in the Capitol, and animals in the arena.
20:10 By Panem law, the Hunger Games are required viewing.
24:11 Tracker Jackets are the ultimate evolution of the wasp, which even now a normal wasp or hornet is a hateful creature, knowing only hate and hunger. I saw a TH-cam vid about how a nest of Asian giant hornets stung a man to death just because they saw him, and they kept stinging the corpse for three whole days. They would have kept stinging him too, but by then first responders wearing heavy protective gear managed to remove the body. The only way to deal with a wasp is with fire. They're nothing but monsters, and death is the only thing they deserve because killing is all they do. And if they can't kill you, they'll still do their damnedest to inflict as much pain and agony on you as possible, because they're born of hatred and born in hatred. They're incapable of love or compassion or anything else. They'll even kill their own offspring for food in lean times. Trust me, Dasha, look it up. The sooner they're extinct, the better for Humanity.
27:04 Yes, the impact will detonate the mines and destroy their supply cache.
28:29 District 12 Salute to the Dead.
32:59 In the novel the "muttations" are created from the bodies of the fallen tributes, and this is apparent in each one's physical appearance. The one made from Glimmer has her eyes, Katniss notices. You said it was another way to torture the tributes -- you were more correct than you realised. Transforming their bodies into mutts is desecration of the dead.
37:40 Go take care of puppy, sweetie! By the way, I've always adored your Russian accent, you make it sound so pretty and musical.
Bravo with such detail! It's such a tragedy that collectively the populus will gravitate towards the shorter comments that pack a punch. While all the diligence and research is lost on the longer comments. Some do just ramble on, being fair about it, but very well done, this was a delight.
@@TheNitelite10 Thanks for that. And it's "populace", not "populus". We aren't Rome....unless we are...
“She just keeled a placemat”
😂 ahhh she’s so cute
Peeta truly did have a crush on Katniss. In the book it mentions that he burned the bread on purpose so that he could throw some to her.
Peta was not really helping the others to find her, he purposely led them in another direction in the beginning. Then when they found her for real he pretended to be with them so that when she finally come down he could help her. Great reaction. I don't think the sequels are BETTER but they are definitely very good.
"I feel like something is going to jump out right now". Haha that was great.
36:59 good boy Hugo 👍🏼
I knew Dasha would enjoy this movie. Dasha would also make a good actress for the role of Katniss Everdeen.
" Dasha would also make a good actress for the role of Katniss Everdeen. " Seconded.
17:55 "Oh. Oh. Ohh." 😮
Jen is fabulous in these HUNGER GAMES movies.
She also stars in a little known flick named WINTER’S BONE. Not sure if the analytics for this movie r good for YT but, u’ll b glad u watched it.
Winter's Bone (2010) is great 👍🏼
And she kicks ass in X-Men Days of Future Past. (year it came out)
Winter's Bone is hardly a "little known flick." She got nominated for her 1st Oscar for Winter's Bone. The film won several awards, including the Grand Jury Prize: Dramatic Film at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. It received 4 total Oscar nominations including BEST PICTURE, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actor for John Hawkes. Jen was the 4th for Best Actress in a Leading Role and at 20 years old. She was also nominated for Best Actress at the Golden Globe Awards and at the SAG Awards. As far as The Hunger Games series she was fantastic in all 4 movies but her best performance was Part 3. She's already one of the Best Actresses of all time. She won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Silver Linings Playbook (2012). She has won three Golden Globe Awards; Best Actress for Silver Linings Playbook (2012) and Joy (2015), and Best Supporting Actress for American Hustle (2013). She also won a BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for American Hustle and she's won seven MTV Movie Awards (five for The Hunger Games series, two for Silver Linings Playbook),six People's Choice Awards (three for The Hunger Games and three for the X-Men series). She was also great in Don't Look Up which got a lot of Oscar nominations. She was great in Passengers and so many more. AND she SHOULD have been nominated for 'Causeway' this year. She was fantastic in that (and she also produced it). Now THAT's a 'little known" gem because it's exclusive to Apple TV.
I always thought it was funny that a couple of bakers had a son and named him Peta (pita).
Except Peeta is a double e, and pita is pronounced with a double t.
This is a star-studded cast. This is only the first movie as well.
Woody Harrelson - Haymitch Abernathy
Lenny Kravitz - Cinna
Jennifer Lawrence - Katniss Everdeen
Josh Hutcherson - Peeta Mallark
Liam Hemsworth - Gale Hawthorne
Elizabeth Banks - Effie Trinket
Stanley Tucci - Caesar Flickerman
Amandla Stenberg - Rue
Willow Shields - Primrose Everdeen
Wes Bentley - Seneca Crane
Donald Sutherland - President Snow
32:09 "That's just adorable..."
dasha is a pure romantic 🥰
OMG I haven't seen this one in years and I recognize so many of the young actors now who play the tributes.
Great reaction. Also surprise Hugo appearance at the end. He's getting so big.
Dasha another great and honest reaction! I especially liked the personal touch of mentioning that you have an older sister that obviously you look up to. I think you will like the sequels just as much if not more. Looking forward to your reaction to those movies in the future. Хорошо. Спасибо большое.
Hugo is so cute.
I used to sleep in trees. You learn real fast to take your belt and strap yourself down. And buy long belts. I don't do it anymore but I still buy long belts and tie them in a knot past the buckle.
I really like the Hunger Games movies and the characters. Reality shows are quite a thing, Seth MacFarlane once described them as a "zoo"... watching animals/people behave in the natural habitat.
Animals in a zoo aren’t in their natural habitat tho lol
@@loisthehedgehog7658 that is true, it's the same for the show. Just a constructed room that's meant to resemble their natural habitat.
The next 2 movies in the trilogy were very good. The author's inspiration was their understanding of the Soviet Union. I was surprised you didn't mention that it seemed like that. A society controlled by Big Brother, a symbolic figure for the ruling Party, who wields all power over the population.
Your most unforgettable line: She just killed the place mat. Love ❤️ it
5:38 "Oh my gosh if only I knew that i would need napkins, you know, tissues." 😆
1. you should _always_ have tissues.
2. you should be sponsored by Kleenex and Puffs.
36:25 HUGO! HUGO! 🐶
Dear Dasha, here are two movies similar to Hunger Games. Two classics. One is 'Rollerball' with James Caan, and 'The Running Man' with Arnold Schwarzenegger!
Dasha, did you recognize Stanley Tucci(Caesar Flickerman) as Doctor Erskine from "Captain America?" He is unforgettable and hilarious in "Undercover Blues."
33:24 JUMP! 😆
The Black actor is Lenny Kravitz.
10:19 Donald Sutherland - fantastic actor and a Canadian!
The Hugo Games! One dog, one winner
Your dog has you well trained. 😊. Great react; keep’em coming!
Hugo knows who's Boss !! 😋
I was fixing to clean house when I saw Dasha reacting to this movie that I had to stop and watch her reaction 😊
Love Hugo! 😊
Regarding the OTT fashion of folks in the Capitol: it's an outward sign of opulence. The wilder the fashion, the more time it takes to maintain, the less practical it is, so you have the status in life where you can just talk, and give orders. You're not capable of actually physically doing anything, but you don't need to. There's lots of historic precedence for this, like the Poullet shoes worn by the King's people. Poullet are the very long, very pointy shoes that are very difficult to walk in. By wearing them, you're displaying your status in life, that you don't need to walk anywhere. Anyone who does need to be physical, can't afford, nor would want to wear them.
Love your reaction...and the Hugo cameos. 🙂
7 mins in and i am bracing myself for Rue's death scene.
It's hilarious how people keep accusing this of being a ripoff, but they can't agree what it's a ripoff of! It's almost like they're just rattling off stuff with _one_ major plot point in common and claiming that makes HG a ripoff. 😂
Anyway I definitely recommend watching the sequels, although if you think this one required tissues, you might as well have a whole case of tissues on standby for the sequels, especially the last one. Every HG movie has a "rip your heart out" scene but the last movie is brutal.
I remember the hunger games, when I was 15 years old.
Fun Fact for you, Dasha:
Jennifer Lawrence is good friends with Lenny Kravitz's daughter, Zoey and while on the set of this movie, she'd gotten made fun of because she'd kept referring to Lenny as "Mr. Kravitz", due to his daughter being her best friend
That's adorable
Я так рада, что вы решили его посмотреть! Это одна из моих любимых подростковых тетралогий.
Кроме того, я заранее извиняюсь за любые ошибки, которые я сделал. Когда меня усыновили, я потерял большую часть своих знаний русского языка. ❤
You should known Dasha
District 1 makes Luxury Goods
District 2 makes weapons and masonry skills
District 3 makes technological goods
District 4 skill is fishing
District 5 skill is electrical
District 6 provides transportation
District 7 provides lumber to the Capital
District 8 skill is textile and makes clothing and Peacekeeper uniforms to the Capital
District 9 provides granary to the Capitol which is also a poorer district.
District 10 provides meat to the Capitol
District 11 provides agricultural such as fruits and vegetables.
And finally District 12 the poorest of the poor district which provides only coal to the Capital.
Which district would you live in?
My district will be 6.
If you have the chance, read the books. They are written in the first person, we learn all the thoughts of Katniss.
11:50 baby Amandla Stenberg! She went on to make some other really great movies!
Check out "The Hate U Give"
Hugo the boss!
I like these movies. And the viewers are right. The more you go the better they get. Nice reaction, Dasha.
What a movie! Great reaction Dasha! I think you want to see movie The Island😊
Hugo is Boss
Great reaction dasha.
Another perfect reaction, Dasha!
I forgot Vikings Bjorn was in this he looks like a baby haha
Next video if doggo needs to go out again or any video really lol just pause the recording take him outside and take those few minutes to collect your thoughts and really evaluate what you feel about the movie and then come back and finish it 🥰♥️ can't wait to see you do this series ✨️ it's a great one!
Hugo is looking very healthy with a nice shiny coat of fur. I'm sure you take great care of him, Dasha!🐕🦺🏆Nice reactions to your first Hunger Games film!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽You will like the other films as film. They are very girl power driven.
Hadn't expected to get into the Hunger Games series, but I saw the first movie, then went out and bought the books. Great movie series.
For me, it's 2, 1, 4, 3 in order of best to worst
I was stung in the eye by a wasp at a theme park when I was 7 or 8 years old. I scream like a little bitch anytime I hear something whizz near me now. The wasps in this are hard for me lol I usually speed through it.
Dasha, don't think any less of him, but the actor with the big wig that comments on the Games... he's also Dobby.
Dasha is a good person.
Your dog is so cute.
Another film you might want to check out with a similar premise is 'The Running Man' starring Arnold Schwartzenegger.
Can't wait to see how you react to the hydroelectric dam scene in Mockingjay P1. That shit hits hard.
Definitely check out the rest of the series.
Dasha, please watch the next 3 Hunger Games movies. If you do watch them then you might want to keep some tissues close by in case you want them. You asked about the leaves on Katniss's arms. No they're not magic but certain plant's leaves can be used to draw out poisons and toxins from wounds like bee and wasp stings. Of course you're supposed to grind up the leaves and a little water to turn it into a paste first.
Great review 🎁
Hunger Games was a collection of three books, but so much was happening in the last one, that it was decided to divide that one into two movies.
Naturally, the titles for them have Part 1 and Part 2.
Great reaction Dasha!
I have 3 sisters who read the books before the movies came out, and still the strongest women i know
Wonderful reaction. Thanks.
Let's watch the next Movie.
Ps: Sweet Dog
I just know you're going to love this series! 💖
Tbh Katniss' head wound was very unrealistic lmao the head is covered in veins very close to the surface so head wounds bleed pretty heavily, so much it's alarming, and that's if it's just a small cut! hers was pretty damn big 💀
This was truly a quality reaction, and it only determines that the reactions to come are going to be just as good, not trying to pour on any unnecessary expectation, but the quality of writing and storytelling is so good and your reactions are equally as honest and so adorable; these journeys make having to endure TH-cam with all of its flaws, tolerable and worth it. When this movie first came out there was some press that got out that the Elites didn't like this movie that much because it tears off the shroud the System to which all of the lower and middle class are governed by. This is the world they envisioned for themselves being immortalized gods living off the backs of the oppressed, getting drunk off their own arrogance while making sport out of the suffering and corruption they wield from the comforts of their wealth and illusions.
32:55 "Another way to torture. Yay." 😝
Donald Sutherland has depth and range as an actor. For instance, he was hilarious in Kelly's Heroes, a very convincing drunk in A Time to Kill and people forget that he was the original Hawkeye Pierce in M*A*S*H (the movie) as well as being a mystery figure in JFK.
The Capitol could easily be Washington DC, Beijing, or Moscow. I wonder how popular this movie was in other countries?
You also need to watch the Divergent Series.
The hunger games movies are great and I definitely recommend watching the rest
TY 🙏🙏
waiting for that rocky 4 reaction lol i love when you watch rocky
How A pup can call to us.
Before this movie, Jennifer Lawrence was great in "Winter's Bone." Her performance in that had to have influenced her casting in "The Hunger Games."
good reaction
