Why am I the only one who thinks "hunger games:catching fire" wasn't all that good?

See, that's your problem right there. You walked into the movie expected to see the actual "games." I guess that's a pretty common misconception among the fans that never read the books. After the first Hunger Games, it no longer is about just Katniss or Peeta or the games. It's about a much bigger thing. It's about the capitol, the districts, the uprisings, etc.... Katniss is simply the symbol of rebellion. If you just walk in to watch "games" and killing and whatnot, you're not going to like this movie and you're definitely not going to like Mockingjay.

I regret going to see it. I was also bothered by the fact that the monkeys were not orange like they were in the book. I won't be seeing part 3.
