"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 (Francis Lawrence, 2015)"

I'd be excited for this, but honestly this is what we all wanted last year. Seriously, this franchise should've ended last year. Plus the young adult genre is played the fuck out (looking at you Divergent series).

But honestly I'm not mad at stretching out Hunger Games one more time. I actually really enjoyed the last one (and the series as a whole, for the most part).

Stretch it out/cash grab/because Twilight

or

Help the pacing of the last book, which was horrendous

Either works. I'm not exited, but I'll see it since I'm in this far with the series. May as well end it.

This has all the same fucking problems I had with the book. They made better changes, but man is this rough at parts.

They've actually gotten better. The 2nd one was good, I think i'm ready for the real at the end of this one.

If in fact they kept that part from the book.

If they'd made a 3 hour banger finale, this could have been something.
After the first 10 minutes, EVERY bit of screen time for Peeta was groan worthy - literally - after a while, numerous people groaned when he spoke.
I was very OK with the Return of the King ending(s). Some people did not like it. This movie's ending made me understand how those people felt.
Too much shit just didn't make sense if you didn't read the books.
Where the fuck did Evan Ross come from?
I was shocked by how much I loved the 2nd and 3rd movies in the series. I was amazed they were allowed to be made. In the right hands, they are fuel for revolution.
"You may win a war, but you're gonna lose" is a hell of a message for a YA book, but hopefully children of republican parents will get it.
First one - OK enough.
2nd & 3rd - amazed me
This last one was a bore.

I have a 400 year old chip on my shoulder.

Evan was introduced in MJP1 as part of the TV crew.

I liked the face off between Snow and Catness. The game of words and wit. War is about personalities and propaganda. I think part 1 was misunderstood by a lot of folks. I do agree with everyone that said this was a money grab. Oh yell yeah it is. Mocking Jay should have been one movie. Mocking Jay part 2 was okay. The Hunger Games series imo is just an average dystopian story. I think the screenwriter did the best they could with it because the series is not that groundbreaking.
