After our first journey into Panem, we're heading back to the world of the Capitol, the districts and the deadly Hunger Games for the next chapter in this dystopian franchise - The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.With tensions rising, the Capitol announces a special edition of the Hunger Games that will force former champions back into the arena. Suddenly, Katniss and Peeta find themselves fighting for survival all over again, this time alongside some of Panem's most dangerous and experienced victors.From a victory tour that threatens to ignite a revolution to an arena filled with deadly new challenges, unexpected alliances and shocking twists, Catching Fire raises the stakes in almost every way. With bigger action, darker themes and a growing sense that Panem is on the brink of collapse, the film takes everything that made the original so compelling and turns it up to eleven.The Capitol might have thought the Games were under control, but the spark of rebellion is spreading, the odds are changing, and the whole of Panem is watching.The Hunger Games: Catching FireReleased: 2013Director: Francis LawrenceBased on the novel by: Suzanne CollinsScreenplay: Simon Beaufoy & Michael deBruynMusic: James Newton HowardCinematography: Jo WillemsStarringJennifer Lawrence as Katniss EverdeenJosh Hutcherson as Peeta MellarkLiam Hemsworth as Gale HawthorneWoody Harrelson as Haymitch AbernathyElizabeth Banks as Effie TrinketLenny Kravitz as CinnaStanley Tucci as Caesar FlickermanDonald Sutherland as President Coriolanus SnowPhilip Seymour Hoffman as Plutarch HeavensbeeSam Claflin as Finnick OdairJena Malone as Johanna MasonJeffrey Wright as Beetee----------------------------------------SocialsLinktreePatreon-----------------------------------------Podcast produced and edited by StigArtwork by CandyMachineStudios

As a little mid-season bonus, between each season we're going to be creating a continuous tier list. This isn't about ranking the films in the way we do on the usual show. Instead, we'll be placing each film into tiers based on our thoughts on its overall quality. We'll kick things off with Season 1: Indiana Jones, and then, with each successive season, we'll continue adding films to the list and seeing where they ultimately belong. So, as the seasons go on, the tier list will keep growing. Get in touch and let us know if you agree with our choices.Watch the Video here - https://youtu.be/gqANuedScUc----------------------------------------SocialsLinktreePatreon-----------------------------------------Podcast produced and edited by StigArtwork by CandyMachineStudios
