I’ve waited my entire life to speak about this – or, actually, the final three months, however it feels like a lifetime.
In case you’re like me, you are in all probability a fan of The Starvation Video games films, which implies it’s possible you’ll be a fan of the books – and that additionally in all probability means you appreciated Dawn on the Reaping and cried about as a lot as I did on the ending. Let’s be actual; we have all been there.
And, with the unimaginable solid updates of Dawn on the Reaping for the upcoming book-to-screen adaptation, it simply retains me considering again and again about what I need to see from this movie. Dawn on the Reaping is without doubt one of the finest Starvation Video games books, and there’s a lot going for it. So, there are just a few scenes from it that I have to see within the movie adaptation.
Don’t learn any additional if you have not learn the books! There are main spoilers from Dawn on the Reaping.
Louella’s Loss of life In All Its Glory
Whereas Dawn on the Reaping might be a part of the 2026 film launch schedule, and we’ll have loads of time to organize for this mentally, I do not suppose we’ll ever actually be prepared for Louella’s dying.
I nonetheless bear in mind the second I learn it – I used to be ready in an airport foyer for my flight out to California, and I needed to bodily take a lap across the airport as a result of I used to be so shocked. It had the identical emotional influence as Rue within the first e book.
We have been, like, six chapters in. I would like that to be fully performed in its glory within the film. I do not need it toned down as a result of she’s a toddler. I would like it uncooked.
I need to really feel as deliciously betrayed as I did studying it, as a result of I assumed we have been going to get a lot extra of her, after which she was ripped from my fingertips. If that is not performed effectively within the film, I am undecided I will be capable of survive.
Lenore Dove’s Demise And Her Relation To Lucy Grey Baird When She’s Buried
Lenore Dove’s dying in Dawn on the Reaping is a heartbreaker for positive – contemplating that is all Haymitch fought for through the entirety of the sport, just for it to be ripped away from him. I am positive we’ll see her die in the identical painful approach. I believe youthful Haymitch actor Joseph Zada will knock it out of the park.
Nevertheless, the extra urgent subject I need to be addressed is the connection to Lucy Grey. As somebody who actually simply watched The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes for the primary time, I’d like to see the connection between them explored in some way in her dying, as a result of we all know from the books that they’re associated (which actually makes a lot sense with Lenore’s persona). We would even get extra solutions about Lucy indirectly.
Older Haymitch And His Time With Katniss
Whereas I doubt Woody Harrelson will return to play an older Haymitch, a woman can dream of getting an incredible epilogue for him.
As we all know and anticipated, after he loses Lenore, Haymitch shortly deteriorates into the drunk that we meet in The Starvation Video games films. However, after the revolution, he “drinks” till the liquor runs out and raises geese within the meantime. He did not know the way for much longer he had on this world, however what we do know is that he a minimum of shared a while with Katniss after the principle story of the franchise.
It was clear that he cared deeply for her, and seeing this from Haymitch’s perspective could be a wonderful solution to carry the story full circle.
With the casting bulletins out and filming set to start quickly, I am desirous to study extra about this adaptation. It is time for a re-read.
