Hunger Games Persuasive Speech

The film the hunger games is a science fiction/thriller film which is directed by Gary Ross, the film is about a once North America country which is now known as panem and the capitol has to maintain control over the district, they do this by holding the hunger games which is an event when they choose 2 tributes from each district a boy and a girl which fight to the death which is publicly televised, but the capital allow one winner for the district to have hope, throughout the film there are many characters which I feel sympathy, likeability, negative characterises and character development about but the main two which I feel the most sympathy towards Peeta and Katniss.

Hello, my name is Susan Stewart. I am a member of the Wheatland High School Grad Night Committee. The committee is comprised of Volunteers who plan and facilitate the Safe and Sober Grad Night event for Wheatland High School graduates. Committee members are meeting with local community businesses and leaders like yourself, to ask if they would be interested in supporting an event aimed at keeping our local teens safe on such a celebratory night.

“Are you looking for some type of Pyrrhic victory?” William asked. “Cause that’s what you’ll get.”

With their hands clasped and bodies engulfed in flames, a screaming sea of people greeted Katniss and Peeta as they floated into view. The image of these two star crossed lovers surrounded by the energy of fire brought with it all the elements needed for a great story: danger, love, and sacrifice. Throughout The Hunger Games certain elements of the film draw on our emotions to engage the audience on multiple levels. Those emotional connections make for a stronger, more vivid memory (Phelps, 201). Memories that stick with the audience long after the movie is over. Katniss as the girl on fire brings us energy, danger, and hope. Peeta as a love struck teenager draws on our own love. President Snow, the face of the oppressive government, is portrayed as cold and calculating; leading to feelings of distrust. Finally, the hunger games themselves are paraded as a sort of celebration, and their reality show like qualities make them feel hollow.

Then they walked out the door. As soon as they were gone he started asking me all sorts of things. “Have you started the book? How is the fair Gwen? How are you?

        “I thought you were one of them,” he admits, squirming under Walker's punishing hold. “I told them last time I saw them that if I did see them again, then I’d kill them.”

“Oh yeah about that, thanks for helping me and everything but I thought about it and I think I want all of this to be mine and only mine, and I would keep you alive but I don’t want any suspects!” Juan said laughing.

Do you want to have fun at Middle Park? Well, if you do that's great, because we are thinking about some fun things you can do while you’re here. How about a snowman building contest? This is where families can go against each other to build the biggest snowman,and whoever wins get there picture in the newspaper. Now that sounds like fun!

Every year, the Capitol hosts an event called the Hunger Games, where a boy and a girl aged 12 to 18 from each of the twelve districts are chosen to compete in a televised fight in an arena, until the last person is standing. Katniss, a 16-year-old girl, volunteers to take her little sister’s spot in the Games, and she and Peeta Mellark become the tributes from District 12, a district that is known for their coal mining, and is the poorest district out of the twelve. This particular district has only won two Hunger Games, and there hasn’t been another victor since the second Quarter Quell. However, the rules of the Games had changed during the 74th Hunger Games, and Katniss and Peeta come out victorious.

“So? I don’t care about society. A lone wolf can do plenty of harm by itself,” I pointed out.”

The Hunger Games is a novella based upon the idea of a new America, where people are manipulated and manipulated by a central government. In the wake of a second civil war, this dystopian society that spilt the population into 12 districts, from Careers to coal miners; the capital created the systematic idea of a “controlled freedom.” In which The Hunger Games were created to prevent the idea or action of a future rebellion. The Hunger Games- is a televised event

“You’re all idiots, you’re all going to die.” The man said. “You think you can come here and attack Rosina for no reason.”

“Yes I understand them, but I simply do not care for them very much. You act as if you have already won.”

"BloodDemon?" I looked back at a young tom, ShadowCore, he was the Beta Male of the Tribe, strong and handsome, he should make a good alpha in the future, "Yes?" I called back to him, and stopped the rest of the tribe stopped as well and started to chat with eachother
