I did like how Gale took care of her family
I’ve heard of the comparisons. I think my dad has watched that movie.
I kinda saw him more as like a brother figure to her though
I don’t know if you might think differently reading the books
just went down a rabbit hole looking at stuff comparing Hunger Games, Battle Royale, and Lord of the Flies
A Battle Royale: Lord of the Flies vs. Battle Royale vs. Hunger Games
with Hunger Games you can definitely see a lot of the influence from gladiator fights and the hunger games are big televised events/reality television (I kinda forgot about Suzanne saying it was influenced by gladiator fights until I was looking up this stuff just now)
