hunger games deleted scenes that should have stayed in the movie

i think we can all agree that we were robbed
hello, everyone!
i'm back with another thg video :D i'm also planning to make a pt 2 for both catching fire and mockingjay since i had to cut them into separate videos because of how many deleted scenes the first movie had (also because of copyright rip)
this is all based on my own opinion and from what i could gather from different sites. if i missed anything, feel free to mention or drop them below in the comments!
have a wonderful day / night!

I’m glad they cut the majority of the interviews, but I did wish they kept Rue’s interview. It’d show the audience how young and scared she was.

[@SachaO-C]

Rue’s interview where she says “they can’t kill me if they can’t catch me” is actually an incredibly powerful line. Considering later in the arena that she died from getting caught in a net one of the careers set up. Very, very sad and clever foreshadowing that they should’ve included …

[@susannahh2573]

they should've kept katniss getting the bread from district 11, that was the first real sign of rebellion we see. and katniss realising peeta saved her bc it makes more sense for why she immediately went to find him after the two victors announcement

[@pumpkinspiceedits8271]

The careers laughing at Peeta for not being able to climb also them can’t climb a tree

[@juliasgardenparty4246]

wouldnt mind the movie being 11 minutes longer

[@gengarcrobat1576]

Fun Fact: Aside from Katniss' and Peeta's interviews, the tribute interviews were all improvised. The young woman who played Foxface said so

[@OreoCookie324]

Should've kept the Rue and Katniss dialogue scenes😭 and when 11 gave Katniss the bread because that was the first time another district had given a gift to a tribute that didn't reside from the same district.

[@beepbeep7397]

The bread scene was really sweet. Neither of the districts really care about any of the other districts too much so that little bit of humanity and rebellion was nice to see. I wished they kept it :(

[@sxrpenshire]

Rue's interview... When Rue tells Caesar her age, you can see Katniss react to that, because where everyone else hears Rue, she hears Prim.

[@fiepkok]

Is it me or have some of these scenes actually been included in the films? The 'katniss looking out for peeta' one and the 'katniss convinced that Peeta teamed up w the careers' are in the films, like ive seen them in it.

[@darkestnightproductions]

You can tell that Rue didn’t want to expose too much of herself so that the tributes wouldn’t use that against her. She’s smart. She really is.

[@cloudykodi]

I'm so sad that Rue is hardly in the movie. We learn so much about her in the books that her death is actually pretty effective, but in the movie we don't learn as much about her it seems and it really sucks

[@doreilly7689]

It's really disturbing how legitimately nice they are being to Rue while sending her to her death... it's like they have no idea it's immoral as long as you give some platitudes

[@PeachBunny_hjk]

Imagine filming your interview scene on stage only to find out it getting cut and your screen time is then basically cut in half

[@justdanimoniquexo]

Haymitch telling Katniss and Peeta to fake being weaker than the other tributes was smart. That’s exactly how Joanna won her game

[@elizabethmicheal5590]

District 11 scene made me bawl crying. It’s from the people of 11 meaning they all pitched in their money to give her that piece of bread. It shows how little they had how strong Katniss and Rue relationship was. They knew she was their only hope

[@rebeccaescanilla665]

"well if they cant catch me, they cant kill mee" omg baby rue

[@buffyglimmers]

It’s the fact that even for Glimmer , someone who is in the district 1 they’re mocking her name by laughing when it’s revealed , showing all these tributes are jokes to them in a way. Even the careers are jokes to them showing all of them are victims

[@semogecarg]

stanley tucci can just bounce off of everyone so effortlessly watching him doing all the interviews he is so clearly perfect for caesar

[@fairyqueenland498]

They should have included
