Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

The first film managed to establish the reaping, the games, etc. and presented what seemed to be microscopic levels of resistance to the fascist forces of the drama-inducing despotic dictatorship who control the games. However, the primary goal of our heroes in The Hunger Games was survival, both by brute force and audience politicking. Now, our protagonists will be empowered for the first time and realize that they're not alone in their desire to end the madness of their oppressors.
