The first Hunger Games resurgence started when the first trailer for Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was released. The second is now as the movie has opened. The problem with both is it brings forth the people that have the media literacy of bread. So I will reiterate once again, nearly no art exists for entertainment. Most art has a message, ALL dystopian art is commentary and you are supposed to understand the themes it’s spoon feeding to you. If you are the part of the fanbase asking for more games, you are the problem and you need to get that worked out with a licensed healthcare professional. That said, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was a wonderful and terrifying look at what power can do to people, the choices between right and wrong and what people will do to survive.

Overall it was an incredible, thought provoking movie that gave us brilliant social commentary (which is the only way to enjoy this movie, if you ignore the commentary you ignore the films very purpose and you are the exact reason genocide and slavery still exist and you need to get it together). I would give the movie a 10/10 but because it was a difficult watch it gets a 9.5/10.
