Tracey Flerlage Professor Karen Johnson Communications Cluster Compare and Contrast Essay August 4, 2015 “The Hunger Games” trilogy is constantly being compared to “Divergent” and with great reason, they share many commonalities. They are both great movies to watch that keep the movie goer engaged in the storyline. Both science fiction movies create a dystopian scenario of what it would be like in a futuristic setting. Both societies have been segregated, “Divergent” into factions and “Hunger Games” into districts.
Now another difference is taking place at the Capitol. In the book Katniss is getting prepared for her interview for sponsors and Haymitch “tries” to help her, by making her try new emotional stand points but this didn’t work causing them to begin hating each other more. Now in the movie this doesn’t happen at all, and in fact Haymitch is a nicer person to Katniss in the movie way more than in the book. The last difference happens earlier in the book when Katniss is still back home hunting. While hunting, in the movie, Katniss and Gale hear a loud noise and look up to see a large government owned hovercraft flying over the forest, most likely looking for people trying to escape or rebel.
And Peeta Mellark, a boy who has always had a crush on Katniss, is sent in as well. they are sent in to fight each other, but they don’t, they stick together, and they both win because they threaten the capitol by saying they will eat poisonous berries so they can’t have a winner. The fight the other districts and the capitol for their life and they get what they want. In the end we now know that “Divergent” and “The Hunger Games” are very similar.
