One conflict in this book was character versus nature as all the tributes had to face environmental issues such as temperatures, hunger, thirst, and others. For example, on page 299 it states, “Starving, weak from injuries, trying not to reopen wounds. We’re sitting huddled together wrapped in the sleeping bag, yes, but mostly to keep warm. The most exciting thing either of us does is nap.” This shows how the characters have to conquer their problems and be able to face environmental issues so they can survive and win the Hunger Games.

This movie had actors such as Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth, who were depicted in the movie's trailer.
The plot in the Hunger Games movie develops faster than the plot in the book. As Leann Ray puts it, “It 's difficult to squeeze 300-plus pages of story into a two-hour movie, so not everything can be included -- I get it. Editing is important. But could we maybe not cut out or change major plot points that are really important to the series?”

Wikipedia, Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade, Sparknotes's articles about Harry Potter, all of them instantly a lie…remembering how Effie Trinket from in the novel Mockingjay had an empty look in her eyes while helping Katniss get ready for President Snow’s trial according to Katniss, I realize that I would react in the same manner if every piece of data in my mind was wrong. In the novel, Katniss Everdeen starts a revolution in her dystopian country, leading Effie Trinket to become a wanted outcast in her own society. And why wouldn’t she? Katniss not only destroyed the society (in this case, the Capitol) that raised her, but she smattered every mental aspect of Effie that was affected by the Capitol…which was basically everything.

To Kill A Mockingbird: Read it, Don’t Watch it. Have you ever watched the movie adaptation of a book, only to find that the book is far superior to it’s movie counterpart? Oftentimes when a book is adapted into a movie, there are some differences between the two. Sometimes the differences are subtle, but other times the differences are dramatic and can affect the development of the story. An example of this is the movie adaptation of the novel To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee.
In To Kill a Mocking Bird there is an example of how killing a mocking bird is a sin, that mocking birds don't cause any harm.

Tom Robinson was shot and killed in To Kill a Mocking Bird. I think he is used as the mocking bird in this book showing how racism and prejudice worked in the 1920's.

Hope is one of the most powerful forces in human nature. It provides people and families with the courage to move on and gives friends the drive to keep going. Without hope the world would live in despair with no prospect for future endeavors. Hope lights a fire in the hearts of many, and some would even say it starts a rebellion of the mind; longing for a different outcome, and a better tomorrow.

This essay will critically examine on how the female figure is represented throughout a very “selective” media outlet (the film industry), and how society is depicted in the film medium. The chosen media text for analysis is The Hunger Games, a theatrical adaptation of the novel written by Suzanne Collins and directed by Gary Ross. The film is centred on Katniss Everdeen - a teenage girl who volunteers on behalf of her sister, to fight in the annual Hunger Games- and the male District 12 tribute, Peeta Mellark, with whom she shares quite an intense past. Both characters embark on a journey that will test their physical and emotional boundaries, while being hunted by the other 22 competitors who all fight for the same objective: survival.
