The Hunger Games-- Cornucopia, Wolves, & Injury

Newhope:
I was trying to picture the Cornucopia in my mind, it was kind of hard to picture what they were talking about.

O'Juice:
I think it was just this gigantic metal box sitting in the middle of this giant-

Walle:
I don't think it was a box-

Dande:
Isn't it the thing that they have at Thanksgiving?

Jolly:
It had to look like it was weaved, so that they could climb, so they had handholds.

Newhope:
The descriptions weren't that descriptive.

Chair:
Those wolves at the end creeped me out.

Newhope:
That was weird!

Jolly:
That was cool, but that was so freaky.

O'Juice: With the eyes?

Walle:
Do the wolves actually have their brains?

Newhope:
I don't think so.

Walle:
Or are they metal contraptions with just their eyes and their hair?

Smiley:
But if it was really them, wouldn't Rue turn on all the other wolves and try to protect Katniss?

O'Juice:
I think it was just their eyes to creep them out. "This is what's going to happen to you, hahahahah!"

Newhope:
I don't think they actually were the wolves, because they mentioned not destroying the bodies. I don't think they would have done that to them. They just made it look like they were. I hope they go into more detail on this in the next book.

Chair:

I think it was supposed to be, "These are all the people who you killed to get here... let's kill 'em again!"

Walle:
It also sort of had, "Your friends can turn on you," because the allies were there too.

O'Juice:
I think they just replicated the eyes.

Dande:
The book's supposed to be so futuristic, so I guess they could do that. They fixed Peeta's leg.

Chair:
Didn't they just replace his leg?

Newhope:
It sounds more like modern technology.

Chair:
It's like a 1984 kind of thing. The Capitol has all the weird technology that no one's sure about. Their technology is never fully explained.

Newhope:
That thing on the roof where you can't go off.

Chair:
And on the hovercraft, they had that too. They couldn't get off the hovercraft at the end of the Games.

Jolly:
Really? The first time she was on the hovercraft, I thought that was just her freezing up, then I figured out, "Oh...!"

Chair:
Well didn't they actually say there was a field that wouldn't let them out?

* * *

Jolly:
When she woke up, perfectly fixed, in the hospital room, that really annoyed me. They spend 200 pages making her that way: covered in dirt, can't hear through one ear, that cut, all the scars and everything. In a paragraph, they fix all that. You just don't do that.

Dande:
Well, they want her to be okay so they can break her in the next book.

Laughs

Jolly:
But still!
