To the hunger games and beyond

Hey hey guys! I hope y'all are doing fine! So this month I'm going to do something different (not really that different), since Mockingjay- Part 1 is coming out in 2 weeks I have decided that I am going to do the Hunger Games review this week and the Catching Fire Review next week, which will lead up to the Mockingjay-Part 1 review! I hope you guys enjoy this post and sorry that it's shorter than usual and it's late I've been really busy with my exams so I apologise in advanced if my posts are late in the coming weeks. After my exams are done my posts will not be as short. Hope you enjoy!

Review 
This is one of my favourite movies of all time. What really grasped me about this book is the whole concept. I like the plot of the books and I was very happy that
they decided to make a movie. The only thing I do have to say is that there were a lot of important scenes from the book that they didn't include in the movie. 
*Spoiler* They didn't include Madge which was the one who was supposed to give Katniss the pin, Peeta's fake leg, the interview at the very end before they were supposed to leave, that was when Katniss found out about Peeta's leg. And most of all I really wanted to see Haymitch fall of the stage at the reaping. The visual affects were also not as good as I wanted it to be, you could tell when they were using a green screen sometimes, but overall it was ok for a first movie. 

Rate
I'm giving The Hunger Games at 4 out of 5, it lost a mark because of the scenes  and the affects weren't as good as I wanted them to be. 

Movie news 
This is some exciting movie news. I think on Thursday or Friday it was announced that there will be a (drumroll please)............... Toy story 4. Yes you read that right there will be a Toy Story 4 being relased in June 2017. Even though I'm not a little kid anymore I'm still excited to see what the plot of Toy Story 4 will be! Are you guys excited for this or not? Tell me why in the comments. 

Movie Premiere 
Tomorrow is November 10th and that means that the world premier of Mockingjay- Part 1 will be in London again. (Fangirls). Are you excited for this or not? The livestream will be on Yahoo Uk at 5.30pm GMT and when it starts I'll post a link on here and on my twitter. Are you any of you guys going to the premiere or watching the livestream? Tell me in the comments! 

   That's all for this weeks blog post, I hope you enjoyed it! Don't forget to comment below and I'll see y'all next week!
