Being able to look into what then will be president Snow's head was so interesting and really gave me the ick sometimes.
The way he viewed Lucy Gray more as his property than anything else made the quick switch at the end of him trying to hunt her down made more sense than it had to me when watching the movie. And 'Coriolanus' turning into 'Snow' in the epilogue made me want to scream into a pillow.
