adu (09/25/2015) [-] That was one ridiculous plot points that I could never get over.
Granted, I've only seen the movie, but he wasn't a makeup artist, he was a baker. Not only that, but he was a baker in the ******* slums, it's not like he would have had many cake orders where he had to recreate realistic environments from fondant and buttercream. " **** I need to make myself look exactly like a rock using nothing but the dirt and **** around me. Well, I've iced some cakes before, so that's basically the same thing." The skill doesn't translate like that and it's about as far-fetched as a plot point can get.
"I need to find a water source to survive. Well I've located my own kitchen sink before, so I guess it would be no problem in the wilderness."

reaperriley ONLINE (09/25/2015) [-] In the book the district has basically 3 classes of people, the winner, the merchants and the workers.
The people who lived in the slums were people who worked in the mines like Katniss's father. Peta's family were merchants and they actually had a pretty good standard of living. The winners enjoyed a life style so great that it made the merchants lifestyle look weak. But that was only if you won the hunger games and in their district they only had one winner. Basically peta spent a lot of time with his hands.
In the book they explain that while katniss spent a lot of time with survival and the other spent with weapons she couldnt find peta. Peta went off and was learning the camouflage course.
So basically, training + stead hands from decorating cakes is the explanation.

rattybastard ONLINE (09/25/2015) [-] In the book the training cycle lasts longer than it seems in the movie; In fact, survival training takes first and foremost among them. There is some quote in the book about how most people don't die due to weapons, but to lack of food/water because they trained too hard on weapons and not enough on survival. Sorry, I don't remember the exact quote. As far as him being able to doodle the natural surroundings, eh your right there. I think the author gave it to him to seem better than he originally was.

rattybastard ONLINE (09/25/2015) [-] Thought it was a lot longer than that, but I can't tell you for sure; honestly, I thought it was a mediocre book at best and I don't have a tendency of remembering those very well.

Tyranitar ONLINE (09/25/2015) [-] Da sauce is "The Starving Games"
Made by the same folks as "Meet the Spartans" and "Vampires Suck"
Not a good thing to mention in a recommendation, I know, but this one was actually pretty damn funny.

thechosentroll (09/25/2015) [-] I actually liked those movies. They're like cinematic junk food - it's bad, it's tasteless, but sometimes you just gotta have it.

murrlogic (09/25/2015) [-] Katniss Everdeen has got to be the most inconsistantly retarded female protagonist ever written in medium.
She started the revolution...begrudgingly all because one of her possible boyfriends turned out to be an undercover spy for the capital
YES KATNISS THAT'S A LEGIT REASON TO START AN UPRISING
Not because of the oppression encompassing district 12 but because fam said "Bitch you ugly"
I hate this ******* series I was forced to read this **** in college.

sweetnothings (09/25/2015) [-] That movie was as awful as I expected it to be and then out of nowhere about halfway through this shining beacon of humor happens and I laughed until I cried made me give the movie one start just for that moment alone.
