The first Hunger Games movie turns 10 this week and one of the major ways it was promoted was via its soundtrack album, The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond, which featured the pairing of Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars for the single “Safe & Sound”.

This week on the podcast, Zach and Chris talk the new title and release date for Venom 2, the Hunger Games prequel movie, Chris Pine taking over from Val Kilmer in The Saint reboot, Nicolas Cage going Lovecraft in Color out of Space, classic video gaming in High Score Girl and more.

DC’s Vertigo imprint is no more, new details about the upcoming reboots of The Stand and Creepshow, Avengers: Endgame is getting new footage starting next week in theaters, Anthony Carrigan will battle Bill and Ted in the upcoming third movie, Halloween 2018 is getting a sequel and more in this week’s News Shotgun.

The Hunger Games saga finally closes out this week with Mockingjay Part 2 on DVD and Blu-Ray along with Daddy’s Home, AMC’s Turn and Fear the Walking Dead and more.

Mockingjay Part 2 remained on top for the third weekend in a row but Krampus was a surprisingly strong competitor.

The final movie in the Hunger Games saga arrives this November as Katniss and the rebels launch their final assault against the evil President Snow and the Capitol.

The new releases failed impress over Thanksgiving and Mockingjay Part 1 continued to dominate on it’s way to the top rungs of the 2014 box office.

Mockingjay Part 1 easily dominated the weekend box office but it was down compared to the rest of the series and other final chapter Part 1s like Harry Potter and Twilight.
