The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Official Trailer
Fan made trailer of Catching Fire
I know it says official but in the description of the video it said it was a fan made trailer. Sorry to disappoint you Hunger Games fans but I am unable to find the official trailer to Catching Fire.
Catching Fire symbol.
If you were to look at the cover of the book, Catching Fire, you would see this emblem.
The people would rather risk it all and rebel rather then obey the capitol and live peacefully with the exception of the Hunger Games causing grief.
Katniss is famous for her archery skills.
The three finger salute.
The three fingered salute of district twelve is a gesture that means thanks, admiration, and good-bye to a loved one. It is rarely used and Katniss used it in The Hunger Games to bring upon rebellion in district eleven when Rue died.
