Photo number two is here. Fans caught a glimpse of Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and her sister Prim (Willow Shileds) sharing a tender moment yesterday as Lionsgate unveiled the first photo, and today they're getting a bit more of the same. Although fans may be discouraged upon the photos content, let's all be happy that we're getting an extra little glimpse of "Catching Fire."
The second photo features Katniss once again, but this time fans see a different side of the star actress. Her intense, hazel eyes show deep sorrow, hinting that "Catching Fire" will be an emotional roller coaster ride (like we didn't already know). While the photo lacks content, Lawrence looks as stunning as ever. Perhaps that was Lionsgate's intentions all along.
"The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" trailer will air during this Sunday's MTV Movie Awards on April 14, but in the meantime, fans are drooling over the new "Catching Fire" photos. As part of Lionsgate's clever viral market campaign, they've now allowed fans to unlock new, never-before-seen images from the upcoming film by hashtagging #HungerGamesExplorer on Twitter. And fans are going crazy, begging fellow-fanatics to hashtag as much as possible in hopes to catch a glimpse of the next photo as soon as possible.
The Hunger Games Explorer website was made official last week when MTV made its initial announcement regarding the trailer debut. In order to promote its launch, the website offered fans a 10-second sneak peek into what they can expect from the trailer. Although it's only a brief clip of a short movie trailer, it's still enough to get fans' hearts pumping in anticipation of the film's November 22 release. Once the trailer airs, it will be made available on the Hunger Games Explorer website in its entirety.
Currently, the website displays three remaining locked images, with the next photo slowly coming into focus, pixel by pixel, as fans use the hashtag #HungerGamesExplorer. It's genius. What better way to get people promoting their product?
The official message on Hunger Games Explorer tells fans to "Tweet #HungerGamesExplorer now to unlock photos and see Catching Fire come to life."
So for those of you who are dying for more "Hunger Games" action, jump on twitter and start tweeting. For those who remain patiently waiting for the trailer debut this Sunday, help out your fellow-fans by posting the hashtag. You don't have to look at the photo once it's unlocked. A simply tweet will make millions of "Hunger Games" fanatics a bit happier. Where's the harm in that?
