Still unclear as to whether there is any "code" going on here...

Almost the same pose in both portraits. Although Effie has her hands crossed, whereas Caesar has his arms open. Binary maybe? 1 - 0 perhaps?

I'm sorry, but I think you are just trying to hard because you want to see something. As of right now, I would say Viral not ARG, not a puzzle just movie posters. I mean, It's on Fandango of all places.

The newest image is Katniss standing next to a SUPER uncomfy looking plain wooden chair.

Not sure why it hasn't updated on the instagram page yet.

wait, you mean people use instagram for more than pictures of their meals?

ETA: apparently 5 got released so far {Effie, Caesar, Haymitch, Katniss, and Cinna}, because Bloody-Disgusting has them HERE. I'm obviously not following enough to know where each of these was released to. Also, Johanna got released to moviephone. Beetee is released on the Facebook page & instagram, but not Johanna. Nice to know they are all so sync'd Rolling Eyes

I have a STRONG feeling this is binary or morse. Add in the fact that there are empty chairs and occupied chairs.

Edit: With these matching chairs, positions, hands crossed or not, occupied or not. Too many patterns for this not to be a puzzle or code to crack.

Edit: There are white roses in some.

The empty chairs are slowly getting filled in sort of, I believe each chair will have a "with person" and "without person" photo {ex the katniss chair is the only wooden chair off to the side}. The ones with roses are the contestants, that's kind of a no brainer. Also the wooden chairs are contestants.

Yeah - possibly each districts' tributes will feature together. There's definitely room for Peeta in Katniss's portrait.

I think there is a pattern. The white roses are interesting - especially in reference to what they represent and how they are being held.

I always thought that Johanna Mason was blonde (in the books)...

I'm not super thrilled with the casting for a lot of them them this time round. Except for Wiress, because I do think that only Amanda Plummer can pull off the type of scitzoid mehavior Wiress has. Smile

Sam Claflin does not in any way shape or form suit what Finnick felt like to me in the books. I say a strong, buff guy who can effortlessly pick up a {granted elderly} woman and carry her. A guy who all the women swoon for because he's well fed and taken care of. What do we get? The skinny wimpy religious pirate who falls in love with the mermain in Pirates: On Stranger Tides.

Johanna also always struck me as a thicker, taller girl. Hair color doesn't really bother me so much as body shape. but meh.

Both Peeta's and (oddly) Gale's portraits have them holding a white roses in that diagonal-down-to-the-right sort of way.

I can understand Peeta holding the rose, but Gale? Unless, and this is only my theory (spoilers ahoy):
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The holders of the white roses signify the members of the uprising. The white rose represents President Snow, and the way the rose is being held in the portraits means "Death to President Snow!"


Or I could be reading too much into all this!!

I guess I'll do a spoiler too since not everyone has read the books...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
technically then Cinna & Haymitch should have roses too. They were part of the uprising. Granted Cinna gets killed early on for
His part in everything, and as a way to terrify Katniss into submission (not that it works).


ETA: Also, where are these Gale & Petra photos? All I can find new is Finnick, and what I assume is going to be Snow's chair? This whole thing is SO effing unorganized it's pissing me off.

That's where the Gale/ Peeta portraits are. Interesting tho...Gale is in plain clothes while the others are dressed up..

In a way that makes sense, since Gale isn't a contestant, he's a "nobody" - the costumes we are seeing on the contestants are the designer ones... on the other hand, why feature Gale at all?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Gale is part of the whole love-triangle thing. He has slightly more book time than he did in Hunger Games..so, he needs to be in the portraits to represent what Katniss left behind? Who knows?


I got to thinking...it's 8 months until the movie is out. Is 8 months a little early for a viral? Maybe this could turn ARG? I'm still kind of a n00b with movie ARGs. The only one I played was Flynn Lives.

No, I know, I get that concept, I read the books. But I mean why feature him as a someone in "Capital Couture" - Fancy Capital designed clothing - which he obviously isn't wearing nor would he wear.

8 months isn't too soon for a Viral - possibly too soon for an ARG but meh. FWIW Flynn Lives was actually doing Viral stuff for a couple or a few years. It really depends on what they plan on doing with it all - for now they are doing this whole "sneak peak at costumes while we share the advertising with our sponsors" kind of thing. I'm hoping there will be something more.... But given how the previous camp went I'm just not sure. At least they aren't asking us to FB spam people yet.

Still probably reading too much into it, but another idea...

Maybe the angle that the rose is being held at signifies the hand of a clock? Beetee is 1, Johanna is either 5 or 6, Peeta is 4, Gale is 5, Finnick is 10, and Katniss is 6...

Also (spoilers-ville again):
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I hope they don't mess around with Cinna's death. I thought that was one of the best scenes in the book

OH I totally agree about so-and-so's death. Uber powerful!!!!!

The clock thing kinda makes sense {could still be trying to hard to see something, but we are all grasping at straws so...} - but again, Gale?
