The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Continuity mistake: In the training centre, after Brutus throws the spear and after Katniss has shot arrows at the enemies made of orange light (when the shot pans out) the weapons they used have disappeared and are not on the ground. (00:59:10)

Suggested correction: That's not a mistake but intentionally done to show the technology. It's not explained how it works, but the weapons disappear as it hits the targets.

Continuity mistake: When Katniss and co get attacked by the monkeys, she fires all her arrows or loses them in the water. We then see her run to the beach with the others. Still her quiver is empty. However, when Peeta gives her the pearl, she now has arrows. (01:42:00)

Suggested correction: When they're on the beach eating, almost an hour has elapsed. Plenty of time for her to get arrows, especially if they're by the cornucopia.

Other mistake: When Cinna is attacked before Katniss is lifted into the arena, she screams out "Peeta!" two separate times, instead of "Cinna!"

Suggested correction: No, she says "Cinna", I can hear it.

Suggested correction: If you listen carefully it is Cinna she screams.

Other mistake: The old man executed in District 11 was shot in the head from behind. However, when Katniss looks out the window from above there are no blood stains on the floor, nor is there a gunshot wound to the head. (00:20:50 - 00:22:30)

More quotes from The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Question: During Katniss' individual assessment, was Peeta the one who painted that picture of Rue? I read that it was but that doesn't explain why Katniss got angry when Plutarch tells her she has 10 minutes to present her chosen skills. Or why she made that dummy about Seneca Crane?

THE GAMER NEXT DOOR

Answer: It was done by Peeta, who was artistically inclined. Peeta knew that seeing it would have an emotional effect on Katniss, making her angry over Rue's death, thus helping her not to be intimidated by the Capitol judges. It was also Peeta's defiant act against the Capitol's cruelty in taking innocent lives. Katniss made the dummy of Seneca Crane as her own defiant statement. Seneca, by stopping Katniss and Peeta from eating the poisoned berries and declaring them both victors in the previous games, saved their lives, but he was later executed for circumventing Snow's orders. Katniss is acknowledging that Seneca saved her and Peeta, losing his life in the process.
