The hunger game definitely describes the conflict between worker class and capital class in a extreme case. And that’s the frequent criticism on capitalism such that it makes the rich richer and the poor poorer. Luckily, capitalism comes with democracy and the people can throw away their government if they suffer too much. I once took a philosophy class which we analyzed a lots of social model from different philosophers and discussed which is the best model. We came to the conclusion that a good social model should have a clear bottom line, and the government have the responsibility to keep all the people above that bottom line to prevent the “bottom people” suffering. In contrast to communism, this model doesn’t have a top line to prevent…
One of my favorite narrative is a movie called The Hungry Games. In this narrative movie there is a lot of problems all build up onto one big problem, but there is only one solution to it all. There is a lot of action and adventure that happens in order to solve the characters problem. The main problem is in order to save the village that each character lives in they have to fight against each other, and win the fight. The way they are chosen is each child in the village name is put into a jar however many times they go out to buy something. Once there name is selected or drawn from the jar they have to get sent away where they are to fight other children from different villages.

1. How do Peeta and Katniss view themselves in terms of the skills that they will take into the arena? Is this an accurate description of their skills?…
The movie the hunger games by Gary Ross has many features that show Katniess Everdeen adapting, surviving and even thriving in the movie. The first thing is Katniss had to do was adapt to her new environment, which was relatively easy for her. She steams from district 12 which is one the districts ruled by the government and are often treated bad, making life miserable for the people, often making people hunt for their food like Katniss. All that experience and mistreatment led to Katniss being able to adapt to her new environment. Her strong will survival was also tested during the games, she was often required to use her outstanding skill on the bow and arrow to defend her by intimidation. She clearly demonstrated her precision and capabilities…
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins had me interested because it deals with a sixteen year-old girl that goes through a drastic change after some events that happen in her life. The Hunger Games is about a girl, Katniss, that volunteers to take the place of her 12 year-old sister, Prim, in the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is a televised event in which a boy and a girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from each of the 12 districts of Panem, is randomly chosen each year to fight to the death against the other 23 participants, or more commonly known as “tributes.” The tributes are enclosed in a large, dangerous arena that is controlled by the “Capitol.” They must fight to the death and find a way to survive and be the last one alive, to win what are known as “The Hunger Games.” Katniss promises she would win for her sister. In the end, not only does she win, but her fellow tribute Peeta Mellark which comes from the same district as her, wins as well. They manage this by acting like “lovers,” throughout the entire event, so that the audience feels sorry for them. I can honestly say that this is one of the best books I have ever read. It gives the genre Fantasy Fiction/Sci-Fi a whole different aspect. I personally do not like that genre, but when I read this one it made me realize that I shouldn’t judge the entire genre just because of one book that I had read in the past. However, since there aren’t many books based on dystopias it makes it interesting to read about a little something less common in literature. All in all, this is one great piece.…
Up until recently, women were never cast to play the strong leading role of the hero, but in recent pop-culture the male dominated movie industry has seen a sudden shift.

She is accompanied by a boy named “Peta”, together they represent “district 12”. Katniss’ journey through all the trials and tribulations is the movies overall focus.…
