The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 & 2

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 & 2

Author: Pod People Productions March 28, 2024 Duration: 1:42:35

“You can torture us and bomb us and burn our districts to the ground. But do you see that? Fire is catching... And if we burn... you burn with us!"

Sequel month comes to an end as The Wives Colangelo close the chapter of THE HUNGER GAMES trilogy. This week the show tackles the financial decisions to split the story into two movies, discuss the film's (unfortunate) continued relevance, and honor Donald Sutherland - the current frontrunner for the male actor who has appeared in the most movies discussed on the show thus far. Happy Hunger Games, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Every week, This Ends at Prom digs into a single film to explore how stories about teenage girls shape our understanding of womanhood itself. Hosts BJ and Harmony Colangelo, a married couple, bring their distinct queer and feminist perspectives-one cisgender, one transgender-to these conversations, creating a unique and essential dialogue. They’re less interested in simple nostalgia and more focused on the lasting cultural impact of these movies, asking what they truly say about power, identity, and survival. You’ll hear thoughtful analysis that celebrates the genre while also critically examining its flaws and hidden depths. This isn't just a film review show; it's a deep dive into the artifacts of our youth and how they continue to define us. Produced by Pod People Productions, the podcast finds profound resonance in the hallways, bedrooms, and climactic prom scenes of cinema, revealing why these specific stories stick with us long after the credits roll. Each episode feels like a compelling chat between friends who are unafraid to challenge each other and the material, making for listening that is as insightful as it is engaging. Tune in for a fresh take on the films you thought you knew.
