(NaturalNews) The Hunger Games is a wildly popular new movie set in a dystopian future where an all-powerful, high-tech centralized government rules over "districts" of impoverished populations barely surviving in third-world conditions. The film, based on the book of the same name by Suzanne Collins, is important to understand because it depicts the very future that the global elite are trying to create. In fact, much of what is shown in The Hunger Games has already begun (see below).
The film is set 74 years after a popular uprising that failed to overthrow a corrupt, centralized federal government. As punishment for the attempted uprising, the all-powerful government now requires each of 12 districts to "volunteer" a young girl and boy each year to participate in the Hunger Games -- a bloodsport "breads and circuses" event that serves as the opiate of the masses to distract society from the fact that they are all slaves living under tyranny.
Spoiler alert: This article reveals plot elements that may spoil the movie for you if you haven't yet seen it.
The central themes of domination and controlThe movie reflects numerous central themes of government control over the masses, including:
• Control over food: Residents of the 12 districts are not allowed to eat more food than they are allotted by the government. Being caught catching a squirrel for food results in severe punishment.
• Control over land: The 12 districts are fenced off with high-voltage power lines, much like you might find in North Korea today. Most of the world is "conserved" as wild forest and grasslands, with humans only being allowed to populate confined regions where resources are sparse and starvation is a daily reality.
• Control over the media: The government controls all media, and every broadcast is a staged theatrical event, completely fabricated by the government to serve the interests of the government itself. This, of course, is a reflection of present-day mainstream media which is completely whored out to corporate and political interests.
• Control of technology: While the masses live in squalor, the techno-elite enjoy advanced hovercraft ships and live in gleaming high-tech cities. Advancements in medicine, 3D displays and weapons systems are available only to the centralized government, never to the People. Also in the film, RFID chips are used to track the game participants.
• Control of DNA: Residents of the districts are identified through the taking of DNA blood samples. The government stores their DNA in a database in order to track and identify individuals. Insects are genetically engineered to serve as weapons, such as GMO wasps that cause wild hallucinations to those who are stung.
• Control over life itself: The government toys with human life and seems to be amused by expressing heartless power over the masses. Their priorities are simultaneously focused on fashion, status and meaningless cuisine. In one scene, when the teenage girl (Katniss Everdeen) is trying to ask her mentor how she might survive the games, her elitists coordinator can only spout about how much she loves "chocolate truffles" and why they should all enjoy a round of desserts.

Are the ptb preparing us for something.
I don't know - perhaps. Mike Adams of Natural News is definitely anti-PTB (powers that be) but I don't know about the author of this book trilogy. By the way, I saw this book trilogy for sale at Costco and at Amazon.ca:
After all the hype, I finally went and watched The Hunger Games. It's set in an obviously post Agenda 21 world. Other than that, it's about as meaningful as the Twilight movies. I'm a little embarassed that I actually paid money to see it.
How would I rate this movie? 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
Those who are unwilling to defend freedom, will become unfree.
I know what you mean, I had heard very good things about it, and my DH asked me to go see it on a "date night" and trust me that is odd, normally I can get him to a movie maybe 2x a year and its me asking (more like begging) and lets just say that we should have waited and gone and seen Cabin in the Woods!

Great info and admirable links, i really appreciate your post keep up the good work. Awesome share indeed. I’ve been awaiting for this update.
I've also saw The Hunger Games movie. "The Hunger Games" is not very easy source material. The start of the movie is so obvious. I loved the path, the emotions , and the satire. one of things I liked the most about reading 'The Hunger Games' was the intensity of how it was written.
i do like that movie and it was what reminded me of corruption and got me started on prepping. i have the first book and the movie and i quite like them both. the HG made me start prepping and might have saved my life.
Cigarettes are just like HedgeHogs, perfectly harmless until you put them in your mouth and light them on fire.
