(Narrated) Tales of The Hunger Games: The 1st to 25th games

[@jout738]

Im wondering why these games still have so many female winners, when by puberty boys physical strenght start to increase to go over girls strenght giving them advantage in game like the Hunger Games and boys have better fight iq and their minds are more built on how to fight compared girls minds and in hand to hand combat boys would have bigger advantage, when boys hand strenght is much stronger, than girls hand strenght is. Still according to these stories girls be also killing here mecelessly, while in our world many of our girls are emotional vegans, that would never want to part take in killing somebody.

[@neo161]

​@@jout738that is just sexism. it depends on what you do all day. if you live in a district where you do physical stuff it does not matter the gender, you built muscles. the situation in an arena is much different to every day life. I would not kill in my day to day life yet pressured to kill to survive, most surely would. everyone has a breaking point where you kill. also it is not bad to not want to kill, so I don't know eh you conotate it so negatively? we (as woman but also as humans) have the privilege to not having the need for murder to survive, so not wanting to do it is just normal¿ idk you comment just sounds like you are ready to rip someone's throat out for no reason at all xD

Also I really hope we get some more hunger games novels from Suzanne Collins in the future, would be great if we get a novel about Mags and the 11th hunger games next.

Based on the latest book, the crowd most likely wouldn’t have been excited from the first through the tenth games as they watched in the amphitheater (and even then, they never watched from there anyway). Before the 10th Hunger Games, Snow remarks that most Capitol citizens viewed the Games negatively, and it wasn’t until afterwards that it gained popularity and interest. Other than that, your creativity and storytelling are compelling🙃

[@pailhorsegaming6762]

Maybe over all they didn’t like them, but there would definitely be some sickos that loved them.

[@oliviapedersen8309]

They probably didn’t like them because it was an amphitheater and they ended so quickly which makes it really boring because it’s much more exciting seeing how they can utilize the different environments in different Arina‘s like I don’t want to watch people die but I mean it would be interesting to some extent to see how they use their environment

Okay Bluebell was an amazing victor. It's amazing that men were so stupid and because they opted for pleasure so badly, they brought shame to their district that year for fraternizing with one of the poorest districts. I can totally see Bluebell mentoring Seeder and them becoming great friends. 💙

[@davidglasspool4921]

I think one of the tributes that she seduced was actually another girl. For some reason I think I remember Christian mentioning that in a comment on another video. Bluebell was awesome for sure

[@Juulicide]

That’s some trash writing, who in their right mind would get seduced during a HUNGER GAMES 😂. No one is that stupid especially when everyone knows the people you team up with will eventually kill you. Didn’t know being a whore would make you “an amazing victor” 💀.

[@izuela7677]

You could definitely see Glimmer trying to follow her example, to some extent. Being flirty with Cato to get him to drop his guard around her. Presumably so she could slit his throat with ease later, when the time was right. She ignored Marvel though, so he was probably aware of her strategy being from the same district. And fine with it as long as she didn't try it on him. I think she was also the one who tried to sneak a poison ring into the games? Manipulation and sneakiness was her game.

Moreover, I love to rewatch the first winners from the outside districts and see the concept of career tributes start to evolve.

[@roy6523]

Quick correction at 18:54 The snakes didn't attack Lucy because Coriolanus (her mentor or future President Snow) had put a handkerchief that Lucy had used into the box of snakes before they were released into the arena. The snakes would not hurt a familiar person, and because they had already felt the handkerchief, they could tell that they knew Lucy so they did not attack her. Hopefully that makes sense.

There could be several victors who were 14, with one being the youngest of them all.

[@wingsedpumlevipisa640]

okay but, bluebell is like my queen i mean what a great tactic

[@christianblanco]

She is certainly a fan favourite!

[@KiaRichards]

Your series is excellent. I’ve spent hours listening to your videos. Someone should hire you to write the hunger games series. You are very talented. I had to subscribe.

[@christianblanco]

Thank you very much and it's comments like this that make all the work worth it! I'm glad that you are enjoying. Take care! :)

1st: I PRAY for a sequel (and possibly a trilogy) to Coriolanus’s story!!! 2: If that were in the makings… i hope Suzanne Collins has seen these particular set of videos herself and be inspired to make some, if not all, of it canon🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Best wishes!!! Love these videos☺️

[@christianblanco]

Finnick is the youngest 14-year-old, but it has never mentioned that there were no other 14-year-olds!

[@Donrichino]

That was Finnick Odair

[@ngakau2005]

I literally started reading it 👁👄👁 ty for saving me

[@seadubs8168]

Love the creativity in these!

[@rivetmay1435]

[@kaydenmclendon1972]

i’m still in shock that there was a kid named plankton in the first games

[@gforceneonaxetake2345]

The 9th games she was actually 1 month away from her 15th birthday with many decades later easily crowning Finnick Odair the youngest ever

Fun Hypothermia Fact: Hypothermia is more likely to happen to men than women

[@christianblanco]

I did not know this! Do you know why this is? :)

[@artemisofthemoonandhunt1486]

I found some rather involved articles, but in general women are at a disadvantage in the cold due to smaller size and get cold faster. However, women's blood vessels constrict faster and sooner than men's, directing heat to the core (but numbing extremities faster.) Women shiver less and typically have a higher fat to muscle ratio, perhaps this allows a women to shiver longer. It's when shivering stops that full hyperthermia sets in as the body attempts to get moving as a last ditch effort to survive, opening up constricted blood vessels and cooling the core faster. This is why victims of hyperthermia are often found having removed layers of clothing/blankets. They feel hot.

I have been coming back to this video the entire 2 years it has been online, and I always will cause I'm still sad it ended :,) End of an Era

[@WhatAlex]

Omg cirrus quell!!! I have not watched that in FOREVER

[@AnnaTimes10]

Ok, so It wasn't the singing that stopped the snakes from attacking Lucy, but the handkerchief that Coriolanus (her mentor) had given to the snakes with her smell on it. Since her smell was not on it, the mutt snakes did not attack Lucy.

[@christianblanco]

Oh yeah I know, but this is written from the Capitol's perspective!

[@AnnaTimes10]

Christian Blanco ooooooooh

[@girxama2163]

I’m kinda angry about the capitol putting innocent animals in the arena for them to kill ;w;

[@rio486]

Just ignore the children

[@txicrses4410]

Aw yes, never mind the fact that they put twelve year olds in there.

[@mynameisasecret5320]

They were technically mutts, not created via natural evolution (or what you believe).

[@jeremyud]

I hope you do go forward with going back over these early games and filling them out. Lamina in Hunger Games 10 deserves her moment.

[@christianblanco]

That's what I'm planning on doing after I've finished these :)

[@tacoblude8208]

We need to remember the games where the careers got rekt by some vultures

[@helenamarlen3453]

Thank you so much for narrating the older episodes!

[@harmonylangdon8717]

God I love these so much! They’re like audiobooks I can listen to ❤️

[@christianblanco]

Glad you're enjoying them :)

[@madisondailey1801]

well this aged well, I'd say

[@misterchess3254]

Yes, i have been koking forward to this one!

[@carsonantley584]

lucy grays singing wasn’t what kept the snakes away. it was her scent. y’all gotta read the ballad of songbirds and snakes

[@christianblanco]

Do remember that these are written from The Capitol's perspective!

[@carsonantley584]

Christian Blanco ohh. that makes sense
