Actors & Dramas·

The reaction to today's movie Q&A is historically bad....

Attendees slammed a The Hunger Games Q&A after the hosts admitted they had not watched the series and people walked out.

I usually don't ask questions, but I was so dumbfounded and angry that I did. They didn't know the character names, so they referred to them by the actors' names, but they only knew Jennifer and hadn't watched anything, so they couldn't even explain the scenes that show the strengths of the series. They talked about Jensen Huang, Saw, and Battle Royale, and said they preferred a different series right in front of the distributor, who was their client.

(It was Heo-Gan, not Min ❌❌❌)

Once again: > Min wasn't there <

They simply hadn't watched the movies, so they completely missed scenes in this one that are important to fans and tie the series together. They just went off-topic, laughed, and seriously had almost no prepared questions, only one joke after another. They couldn't even remember the names of the main characters.

Q: Is there a reason you came to host a Q&A for a series without watching the series? H: No. There are 6 movies, so watching them all would be a problem. Q: What problem? H: My time is way too valuable. Q: Then isn't my time valuable too, when I'm watching a Q&A hosted by people who haven't even seen the series? H: I'm sorry about that.

G: We agreed to do this after being told we didn't need to watch the whole series. Q: The distributor made the wrong call. H: ....I'm sorry. G: We're truly sorry, and thank you for taking the time to come. But things like this happen too.

It was a Q&A for The Hunger Games, and apparently they just showed up without watching the series.

The audience ended up calling them out.

Today's The Hunger Games Q&A at Megabox wasn't even just like throwing money on the ground T_T It completely put me off. I'm honestly amazed they got paid to do such a half-assed job. I walked out halfway through, yeah.

The Hunger Games review: a full-on sobfest Haymitch was so heartbreaking and pitiful 😭😭 I hardly ever cry, but I was genuinely tearing up throughout the entire movie. The Hunger Talk was so bad that I left halfway through….

I just saw The Hunger Games, and now I'm forever going to tear up whenever I see Haymitch…….. Please, please go see it when it opens. But the less said about that talk, the better 😮‍💨

Tons of people walked out halfway through too.

They could've easily spun it as, “The distributor told us that since it's a prequel, even people who haven't seen the whole series can enjoy it, so we wanted to see it from a newcomer's perspective,” or even, “We really wanted to watch them but didn't have time” lolllll. No matter what the distributor told them, saying their time was too valuable was just picking a fight with the audience because they didn't want to admit they were wrong.

It was truly the worst Q&A. Never do one again. Is the distributor out of its mind? They should've told them to watch the movie! But this The Hunger Games movie is genuinely great, so everyone please see it 😭😭

Shouldn't they be giving refunds at this point? lol What gave them the nerve to host a Q&A?
