It’s understandable if you’re feeling a little deflated about the new Hunger Games. You had such high hopes and waited so patiently for its release only to be deeply unsatisfied by the whole experience. David only gave is two-and-a-half stars. Triple J’s Marc Fennell refused to categorise it as a full movie. “You should only have to pay half price … because that is all it deserves,” he said. “All you can think there in the cinema is fuck you … no, seriously film studio, you are just taking the piss.”

So, in the face of such overwhelming disappointment and frustration, the legends from Bad Lip Reading have given some tips on how the franchise could be infinitely improved. In short: it needs more talk about iguanas, fanny packs, cardboard diets and a car that’s made out of dead folks. Take note.

It’s a thing of beauty.

In case that wasn’t enough, Bad Lip Reading have also made a surprisingly compelling live music clip for the group, a new version of the original film, and other re-workings of Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, and TwilightWeekend: sorted.
