A bold comment on how enamored we are with celebrities, and how we can so easily be distracted by their lives. The parallels of ultra-celebrity highlighted in 'Catching Fire' are its strongest asset. He hopes that the spectacle of Katniss and Peeta's celebrity will distract them from the horrors of his reign. Katniss' willful disobedience in the first games has caused a stir of uprising around the districts. Snow needs his loyal subjects to fall in line. A development that has drawn the ire of President Snow. It doesn't help matters that secretly Katniss loves Gale (Liam Hemsworth). They're expected to be in love of every second of every day. Like today's high-powered celebrity couples, Katniss and Peeta are expected to lap up the limelight. One, which on the surface, is adored by fans in every district. The relationship between Katniss and Peeta is a tenuous one. Yes, those sequences are the most exciting and visually stunning, but the action that takes place outside of the Capitol's death dome is just as entertaining. The movie, however, doesn't rush full-throttle into the games. Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) aren't out of the woods yet, not by a long shot. Every 25 years, or basically whenever President Snow sees fit, the Hunger Games gather up a bunch of past winners and have them battle it out, yet again. President Snow (Donald Sutherland), with the help of his devious Game Maker Plutarch Heavensbee (Philip Seymour Hoffman), has found a delightful, not to mention convenient wrinkle in the way the Hunger Games are dealt with.
