Attention all Hunger Games fans! The Hunger
Games was released on March 23, 2012, and got such great feedback. Since
then, popular demand sparked the making of a second movie based on the second
book of the trilogy by Suzanne Collins, The
Hunger Games: Catching Fire. This
second movie was released on November 22, 2013, and is still popular in
theaters well into December. As
of December 12, 2013, The Hunger Games:
Catching Fire has earned a total of $342,022,652 in North America and a
total of $336,700,000 internationally, which all together is $678,722,652. As
you can see, this is an incredible amount of money earned, especially since the
movie got these numbers in a little less than a month.

In this movie, Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson
return as Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark. Other actors such as Liam
Hemsworth, Woody
Harrelson, Elizabeth
Banks and Lenny Kravitz reappear as the same characters, as in the past movie.
What makes Catching Fire unique and
different from the previous movie is that this new movie has a twist. Katniss
and Peeta win their victory in The 74th Annual Hunger Games, and they think
everything is going relatively well, but they are wrong. As they are going on
their victors tour, they start to see a revolution coming into play. They now
get news that they have to compete in another hunger games called, The 75th
Hunger Games, the Quarter Quell. This Quarter Quell is even more dangerous and
risky than the last one, but will Katniss and Peeta survive? You will just have
to find for yourself by seeing this wonderful and outstanding movie, with many
new twists and turns!
