Have you had the chance to watch any of the Hunger Games movies so far? I’ve already seen the first Hunger Games movie but I didn’t get a chance to watch “Catching Fire” while it was still in theaters so I’ll definitely be getting a Blu-Ray copy of that movie! “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” arrives on Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD, Digital HD, Video On Demand and Pay-Per-View on March 7!
Here are a couple of clips from the film:
Academy Award® winning Best Actress Jennifer Lawrence (2012’s Silver Linings Playbook) headlines the all-star cast in this action-adventure which became the #1 movie of 2013 and the 12th highest-grossing film of all time at the domestic box office. The first film with a female lead to top the annual box office since 1973, the film has grossed nearly $420 million at the North American box office and over $850 million worldwide to date.
The second installment of the worldwide phenomenon is packed with over two hours of extensive, must-see bonus materials that include a Blu-ray-exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film, “Surviving the Game: Making Catching Fire,” deleted scenes, an audio commentary with director Francis Lawrence and producer Nina Jacobson as well as a sneak peek at the highly-anticipated theatrical action film Divergent from Lionsgate’s Summit label. The Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $39.99 and $29.95, respectively.
Hailed as “a monumental achievement” (The Playlist), The Hunger Games: Catching Fire features a critically-acclaimed cast including Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson (The Kids Are All Right), Liam Hemsworth (The Expendables 2), Academy Award® nominee Woody Harrelson (The People vs Larry Flynt, 1996), Emmy® nominee Elizabeth Banks (TV’s “30 Rock”), Lenny Kravitz (Precious), Academy Award® nominee Stanley Tucci (The Lovely Bones, 2009) and Golden Globe® winner Donald Sutherland (Path to War), reprising their original roles from The Hunger Games. The impressive line-up is joined by Academy Award® winner Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote, 2005), Jeffrey Wright (Codeblack Films’ The Inevitable Defeat of Mister & Pete), Jena Malone (Into The Wild), Amanda Plummer (Pulp Fiction) and Sam Claflin (Snow White and the Huntsman).
Based on the best-selling second novel of Suzanne Collins’ award-winning trilogy, with a screenplay by Simon Beaufoy and Michael DeBruyn and directed by Francis Lawrence (I Am Legend), The Hunger Games: Catching Fire begins as, against all odds, Katniss and her fellow tribute Peeta have returned home after surviving The Hunger Games. Winning means they must turn around, leaving their loved ones behind and embark on a “Victory Tour” through the districts. Along the way, Katniss senses a rebellion simmering – one that she and Peeta may have sparked. At the end of the Victory Tour, President Snow announces a deadly 75th Hunger Games that could change Panem forever.

bel recently posted..Protect Your Dog With Vectra!
I liked the fist movie and missed seeing the second, but I’m sure I’ll love it and want to get it in Blu-Ray.
I was so excited to buy this. I rarely buy movies when they first come out,but I went two different places to try and find this after work on Friday. It was worth it!
I have heard of it before. I’ve never seen it and had no idea what it was about. I’m not a big t.v. or movie watcher.
I am fanatic of hunger games. I’d already watch both part 1 and part 2. It was a nice movie. I’m so excited to watch the part 3
LOVE the hunger games! My girlfriends and I get together to watch it, seen the 1st movie and this one already! LOVE IT! Exactly what I had expected! If you haven’t seen it, you need too!
My husband and I read the books before we watched both of the movies. They did a great job on the movies! The Catching Fire movie has the most beautiful costumes and the make up and hair styles are just incredible!
I liked Hunger Games cause I got to see a lot of people and stuff get blowed up real good.
Robocop was better though cause more people got blowed up real good.
It is great to see that they are making books and movies with females in strong rols and they are winning awards not as second to the man but as the primary actor.
I saw the first movie and will have to buy this one!
I really love the hunger games movies, they have lots of action and suspense.
I still haven’t watched any of these movies. Thank you for your review.
I watched Hunger Games 1-3 last week and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked them, I honestly didn’t expect to since they’re kind of dark. I think they are worth watching and very good!
