It's November again, which means it's time for another installment of the Hunger Games franchise.
If you are new to the series but want to dive into the final chapter, you may be confused by some of the characters, the settings, the relationships ... All of it, really. So we're rereleasing this helpful video as part of our ongoing series, "Too Long; Didn't Watch," to catch you up.
The Hunger Games takes place in a dark future where the gap between rich and poor is tragically wide and the masses are subjected to traumatizing reality TV shows. So, y'know, just modern America basically.
Out of this dystopian despair rises our heroine, Katniss Everdeen. Katniss' skills with a bow and arrow make her an efficient kid killer, and before long she finds herself at the forefront of a movement that could overturn the entire corrupt system.
It's really engrossing stuff, but it's also about seven hours of your life you could save by just watching our video.
