The only Hunger Games film not to feature singing from Katniss. She sang "Deep in the Meadow" in The Hunger Games (2012) and in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 (2015) (played over the credits), and "The Hanging Tree" in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 (2014). See more »

Peeta opens an oyster, finds a pearl, and gives it to Katniss. The inside of the oyster shell is very white, but the pearl is dark gray. Pearl-producing mollusks create pearls that are the same color as the inside of the shell. Oysters with white interiors produce only white pearls. See more »
Quotes
[first lines]
Gale Hawthorne:
[as Katniss almost shoots him]
Whoa, whoa. Easy. Saw some turkeys on the way here. Crossed right in front of me like I wasn't even there.
Katniss Everdeen:
How rude of them.
Gale Hawthorne:
That's what happens. You spend six days a week working in the mines and stupid birds start to think they own these woods.
[brief pause]
Gale Hawthorne:
When's the tour leave?
Katniss Everdeen:
Couple hours.
Gale Hawthorne:
Well, let's go.

Crazy Credits
The film's title doesn't appear until the start of the closing credits. As such, this is the only Hunger Games movie where the title of the movie does not appear at the beginning of the film. See more »
Alternate Versions
Blu-ray Disc versions of the film feature the IMAX scenes in a taller aspect ratio, thus staying more true to the original theatrical exhibition, similar to what was done with the Blu-ray releases for the Christopher Nolan Batman movies. See more »
This is an appalling film, my wife suggested it, she was quite embarrassed by 60 minutes at putting me through something so inhuman and by the time they fought monkeys she was positively apologetic, do yourself a favor if you want a chick flick watch Bridget Jones or something and if you want a good film in the society gone mad survival genre watch battle royale. Or if you have no choice but to watch Hunger Games Catching Fire and you are not a 12 year old girl, do yourself a favor and set yourself on fire before hand, the pain of healing burns will at least distract you from this piece of over budgeted under written turd.
