How long do you guys think you'd make it in the Hunger Games? 😵 And big shout out to Epic for the sponsor! Download Fortnite for free here: pixly.go2cloud.org/SHpH

Honestly, I loved Book Peeta. He is so genuinely kind. He isn't the normal male protagonist where he is tall, lean and handsome but rather he is built like a barrel and strong, but is naturally sweet. Book Peeta is brave, moral, and gentle. I love his character.

Making the characters taller, older looking and healthier really did a disservice to the books. One of the central themes of the books was that these terrible things were happening to children. These children were the result of harsh lives.

I’m not that angry about the characters not being super skinny, after all they can’t starve the cast

I like how Peeta wasn’t responsible for the death of Katniss’s younger sister

Bread boy + Girl on fire = TOAST

Personally I like Peta becasue, first of all, he breaks the Male stereotype of the Male is always stronger than the female and he is just a very nice person and a interesting character overall

When she said "This video is sponsored by Fortnite" I literally had to stop and rethink my life

*_Spoiler warning_* In the books Prim’s death is more like the kinda thing to make you go: “O.M.F.G. PRIM IS DEAD?!!!!! PRIIIIIIIM!!!!!” In the movie, though: “Nooooo! Prim!!!! Oh, next scene? Ok. I guess.” Edit: woah. Thass a lot o likes.

I liked Peeta because he was pretty average. He wasn't an action star, or a superhero. He was just a guy who did his best to save the woman he loved. He happened to be intelligent and he happened to be charismatic, but the things I personally enjoyed about him was that he was not someone who was traditionally heroic. Instead, he had kind of a quiet heroism that, at the end of the day, placed Katniss first. And that made it and him ultimately better for her than Gale. Gale is what we would normally associate with as a love interest. He's strong and reckless and incredibly brave. But he's also manipulative and controlling and doesn't care much about Katniss's opinions when it comes to what *he* wants from the relationship. He is an interesting character because I doubt it comes out of ill-will, but he is ultimately shaped by the horrors of his life. In comparison, Peeta overcomes those horrors and moves past them. He displays integrity and he displays patience. He is clever and made his intentions towards Katniss very clear from the beginning, whether she understood them at the time or not. He also manipulated people, so it's not like he's perfect, but he did it with one goal in mind: Not the end of the war, but safety for Katniss. He wanted her to be happy, even if that meant that he wasn't part of her life. And he sacrificed himself for her more than once and she did it in return for him. That's my opinion at least. Sorry if that's a bit long winded.

I don't really mind characters looking different in movies (unless they're Annabeth bad) it's more the plot changes that I have issues with.

I always liked Peeta because he’s so normal. He’s the only character who didn’t demand anything of her (whether intentional or just in Katniss’s mind), and was always a positive constant ( until the last leg of the journey. If you know you know.) At times he was the only steady, good thing in her life.

I just have a big pet peeve with films making every character incredibly traditionally attractive, like, Lavender's interpretation of Katniss feels so much more like a real person, whereas Jennifer Lawrence is such a bombshell (honestly good for her) that it feels to the point where she isn't like, a normal looking teenage girl anymore

Honestly I adore peeta for a few reasons - it’s been a while since I read the books so I may be a bit off in some parts, but mostly I loved that he was this gentle and kind boy who actually uses his charm to his advantage. Most love interests in the YA novels I’ve read are these tough stoic guys, whereas peeta is just.. not that! He’s a soft baker boy! I love that this also contrasts katniss, who is hot headed and driven and strong - both of them contrast stereotypical gender roles, both on their own and in a relationship, and I love it!

Personally, I prefer Peeta to most other characters in the entire canon. He's very compassionate, chivalrous, and understanding of Katniss's reservations, but he's also intelligent, creative, and good at strategy. He waits for Katniss to feel more at ease before testing her boundaries on openness and takes the reins when he knows it will protect her. Gale does this to an extent, but he's much more jealous and pushy about what he wants and isn't shy about it. Even as a child, he risked - and got - a beating in order to give Katniss something to eat.

Peeta was actually my favorite character, because he is very kind and loving. He also seems to be the most gentle character in the story. It may also be the fact that I relate to him the most in the fact that he is talented in art (camouflage painting). As an “art kid” I relate to him the most. And to be honest ive grown very attached to him.

Peeta is sweet and kind. He is also protective of Katniss. All he wanted was for her to live and is willing to die for her. He is a crowd pleaser and knows how to lead. I feel like a reason he becomes disliked is after he gets hijacked. He becomes aggressive and starts hating katniss. Which is not his fault Though this does annoy the reader and causes the reader to start disliking him.. He does become kind again once he regains his memories. I do really like him.. But hey! It’s just my opinion 😊

Reasons I love peeta mellark 1. HES GORGEOUS 2. He was openly willing to die so that katniss would live in the 74th annual hunger games 3. (In the book) he took care her after she got him his medicine for his leg and she got cut by Clove on her forehead 4. Dispite being completely brainwashed and tortured by the capital he fought in the rebellion and tried to bring back his memories 5. In mockingjay during his outbursts of violence because of the torture he endured in the capital he told them to just kill him to save themselves from him 6. He saved katnisss life by giving her bread even tho he took a beating for it 7. He didn’t lie about his feelings in the arena and genuinely loved katniss and even if she didn’t love him right away he still was willing to die to save her life on multiple occasions 8. He didn’t particularly care for gale hawthorn but still helped katniss care for him after gale was whipped There’s a lot more but these are just some of the tops for me why he’s one of my favorite characters

I feel like Peeta's lack of appeal comes from the fact that Katniss never feels any attraction to him. Even when they have children she like.. Isn't happy about it. She is much closer to Gale the entire time.

I felt like I was stabbed in the heart when you said you didn’t care for my perfect nice kind amazing angel that is Peeta Mellark. That boy deserves the world and more. He’s just so selfless and good and pure and he believes in peace and he’s charming and funny and just ughhh I love him so much.

As a big Peeta fan the reason I personally love him so much is he’s just kind. He’s always been portrayed as kind and patient and the opposite of Katniss and their duality was very appealing to me! He just always felt like a sunshine of a character in such a dark story line

Well, here's why I love Peeta: 1. He portrays the manipulation of The Capital and is one of the many ways Suzanne shows us how cruel and manipulative that society was. 2. It's shocking to see his personality change throughout the books, he, once so sweet and gentle, went through extreme emotional stress and torture, and then recovered but wasn't the same as before, as he became more serious. That's impressive to see in a book, how someone changes drastically in such a period of time. 3. He, most of the time, tried to protect Katniss, even though she was close to Gale (who I liked at first but then became a dumbass), even though he was suffering hallucinations, even though they didn't really want a marriage that early, with all of that, he tried to be there for her and I just find that very sweet. 4. He breaks the stereotype of "handsome guy that is very strong and heroic that protects his girl at all costs and can do everything by himself, oh I'm so cool" yeah, he isn't this kind of character. That's why.

LavenderTowne: Promise me one thing. *Don’t give up overwatch for fortnite*

“Now, Peta is a character that… some people love and some people hate-“ Hey, *Just like in real life.*

I only read the novels, a few years back, and I can just remember how annoyed I was at Katniss and Gale and that Peeta was this one character I wanted to root for. He just was likeable to me, but because it was so long ago I can't exactly remember why.

Can you do maybe Coraline next?

I like Peta becuase I can make puns with his name.

Aww was kinda hoping to see Finnick. (He's my favourite)

I really like Peeta, as he’s self-deprecating, funny, kind, artistic and creative! I thought Josh Hutcherson did a good job portraying Peeta too.

I'm glad you didn't do Rue or Prim, because there wouldn't be much point since they were probably the most accurate castings

Do you think you can try and do a "Mrs. Peregrines Home For Peculiar Children” episode because the changes are drastic and a tiny bit unsettling?

Lavender: it’s such a cute game and I like the cute colors Also lavender: shows epic skills and kills

Peeta is my fave. He’s always so caring for people and is AWESOME

(Spoiler warning for mockingjay) I know I’m kinda late and nobody’s gonna see this, but I can appreciate peta and his character mostly because of the development in some of catching fire and mockingjay. As someone who has struggled with insanity and ptsd, Suzanne collin’s adaptation is shockingly accurate. Katniss, who has lost the person who meant the world to her and has lost herself. She has fallen into a depression and has absolutely no will to live. Peta is able to bring her out of this and lead her to trust and want to live again. The fact that peta is able to do this, when added to the fact that he has been tortured for months by the capitol and can barely hold himself stable is remarkable. The will they put into each other even after all they’ve been through is what makes peta so special to me.

You showed his prothestetic leg! Yay.

I always appreciated how sensitive Peeta is. He's a very compassionate person too.

It's been a long time since I read the books, so this is more based on my vague memories and I'd like to hear others' thoughts on my memories, but I always really liked Peeta because in the books, his interactions with other characters were consistently interesting to me. I find it compelling when characters are very different from each other and there seemed to be a lot of very strong but emotionally inept or straight-up emotionally distant characters (like Katniss and Johanna) especially in the specific fictional world created in The Hunger Games. It made sense for people to grow up emotionally cold, so Peeta stood out as a rare emotionally sensitive and socially aware counterpart to those strong but troubled characters. I know that different people will have different favorites because so many of the characters are well-written, but I always connected to Peeta because in any work of fiction, I love seeing emotionally-charged character interactions and Peeta seemed to instigate those, especially in the first book. By the time I started the second book, I already loved him.

I LOVE Peeta and I will die on this hill. He's the only truly good character. He's incredibly selfless and his only flaw, apart from him being awkward and clumsy, is that he wears his heart on his sleeve and sometimes makes people (Katniss) uncomfortable with his emotions. He literally offers to sacrifice himself MULTIPLE TIMES to save Katniss and her family + Gale because he's a literal gentleman. IF YOU DO NOT APPRECIATE PEETA FOR THE SWEET, PURE, SMOL CINNAMON ROLL THAT HE IS then honestly welcome to the 76th hunger games bitches xoxo

Yesssssss!!!! So hyped for this one! As much as I loved the movies and books, I remember not thinking Jennifer Lawrence looked anything like how I pictured Katniss when the first trailer came out!

The first 3 minutes, is Haley roasting the Percy Jackson movie 😂

I’m a huge Petta Fan. I love how Josh portrayed him. I like him because he’s everything I want in a man. He’s kind and emotional and forgiving and freaking perfect. Just personal opinion tho.

I liked Peeta in the movies because of his positivity, kindness and selflesness. I think Josh Hutcherson did a good job of portraying him as a genuinely good guy: giving the bread to Katniss.. giving Katniss sponsors by creating the 'star-crossed lovers' story ..putting Katniss's life before his in the arena and being willing to sacrifice himself every opportunity he got to... I haven't read the books, but even though I bet Peeta did all these things in them originally, the movie adaption did a good job of making him look like the good innocent boy he is: His name was picked out, but he still tried to be friendly with Katniss from the beggining. When Hamich wasn't giving them advice on how to survive, Peeta still tried to talk to him while Katniss gave up (Even though Katniss losing her temper with Haymitch was what made him talk, I think this shows how patient Peeta is either way). He was really positive and friendly all throughout the start of the movie (when they were at The Capitol) even though he told them that deep down he was convinced that he was going to die. And finnaly - that smile :))) what a good boy. My mom also finds his movie portrayal irritating, but I think he's cute~

Can you try to redraw iconic cartoon characters like monopoly man or pink panther as people?

This definitely needs a part two! Would love to see your rendition of Haymitch, Cinna, Gale, Finnick, Johanna... Especially Haymitch and Cinna who looks completely different from the book description!

Everyone is like: “Oh but Gale killed Prim” but like, he just designed the bomb. President Coin was the one who sent the medics in, so who’s really responsible?

Book peta was way better! He was funnier, stronger, more attractive, and overall much more charismatic! Plus he pulled his own weight far more then movie peta

You should do Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children! The movie adaptation was sooo different :0

5:42 I myself am not a big Peeta fan, but the part I like, at least in the first book, is the way he interacts with Katniss. He’s so optimistic and Naive compared to her being pessimistic, world weary, and well versed.

Effie's smile in the drawing kinda looks like Sero's smile from My Hero Academia

*Effie Trinket looks like a weird humanized version of Fluttershy.*

Peeta is, on the surface, the big dumb character. But when you look deeper, he is also so sweet and invested in his art. He is a refreshing relief from Katniss and Gale's calculating intelligence and fire. He has faith in people.

I totally forgot that Peeta lost his leg until you mentioned it!

I absolutely adore Peeta! Peeta is one of my favorite characters, and that's probably because I relate to him. I like Peeta because he is intrinsically kind and humorous and protective of the people that he cares about. In the books, he's always making jokes and trying to help people. "Here to finish me off, sweetheart?" is one of my favorite lines in the whole series because I think it's so funny that he's literally dying and still making jokes.

The Peeta thing. Things people mix up is complaining about the actors. "They didn't act well" "He didn't represent him the way he was supposed to" Often it's not about the actor doing a bad job or acting "wrong". the directors and people working on the movie is the ones who are telling him JUST what to do and how the character should be interpreted, otherwise they wouldve cut the scene and make him do it again

Katnis looks like she would fit right in the attack on titan manga

What I like about petah : HE IS THE COOTEST LIL BOI

peeta is ABSOLUTELY my favorite character, with finnick as a close second. I just look how funny and clever he is. he's always portrayed by fans as like sweet and wholesome, but he's got some really great quips. he feels like my kinda person and soooo real to me he's not just grumpy and pissy all the time (I say with love). he's smart and perceptive

DUUUDE, peeta should be EVERYONE'S ideal guy! he's so compassionate, patient, kind, down-to-earth, supportive, positive, humble, selfless, calming, respectful, loyal, yet intelligent, protective, and mentally/physically strong (i can go on and on). all in all, we are so unworthy of him!! his soul is too precious for this world!

Fortnight sponsoring Lavandertowne. We did it boys

I liked peeta because he was so honest and just true. He wasn’t the hero of the story and don’t wanted to be. He showed his fear and I always hit the sense that he was just a relatable and pure character idk

I like Peeta. I think he helps Katniss even out her “teen angst” and grim, serious personality. I think they help balance each other in a way and I’m all for the opposites attract ships

Hi! could you please do Miss Peregrine home for peculiar children next? they made some pretty major changes in the movie so I would really love seeing the original characters, thank you

You should do the Giver ir Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children!! Both of their movie adaptations were... Not great....

As a fellow Peeta fan I shall explain why I like him. He's very humble and quiet, always putting others first. For example (spoiler alert) in the cave where he's injured he insists that Katniss doesn't leave for food and medicine because of the risk of getting hurt. This shows his hospitality.

The only thing I have to say is that Katniss specifically says that people in the capital have scarily pale skin, and sometimes they even dye their skin pastel blues or greens, and you seemed to draw her with a more tan complexion than I think fits her look. You did an amazing job though!

Please do a part 2 with Cinna, Snow, and Haymitch. These characters changed quite a lot in the films, and I think that you would draw them well.

The biggest problem I have with the movie adaptations is that they try to play it off as just some quirky romance/survival movie, when in the books, it’s about the oppression of minorities by an aristocratic powerful government. It is said in the book that the districts were made up of mostly people of color, but the movies chose to cast three white people as the main characters. They remove Peeta’s disability, and they change the context of Rue’s death (in the books, it’s significant as the death of a young black girl at the hands of the government). Katniss is supposed to be a strong, empowering female poc character that doesn’t spend time on her appearance- but instead, she’s a pretty girl with an “ideal body” and her strengths are downplayed. The movies by themselves aren’t terrible but compared to the books, they’re very disappointing.

I just recently watched all the hunger games movies and I completely fell in love with peeta, wow what a cutie, I wish I had a peeta in my life haha

Peeta is just a genuinely good person. He isn’t flawless or anything but he tries so very hard to do the right thing for as many people as possible. He is possibly not the most exciting but he is the best person.

im just edit-deleting this comment i was literally 11 when i made it and its very cringy amsnwnsks help

You should do The Maze Runner because the movies are terrible and absolutely NOTHING like the books. The books are so much better

i love how you made her grumpy bc its said in the books that she is not very polite and dont smile a lot

god I love peeta so much. I don't even know why, I just think he's so sweet and so adorable and he's almost definitely my favourite character

Congratulations on having such a big name sponsor! It's so awesome that they noticed you! And goodness gracious, you've already got another 30k subs in only a few weeks!

I like peeta bc he has a stong personality with determination. He wants to protect katniss no matter what even when he got captured by the capital he still made sure that katniss was save by saying "they are coming for you katniss" or something like that while he was on extreme drugs that made him have a lot of pain. I also think josh did a good job on doing peeta

peeta is just so unfailingly kind i love him so much he literally felt bad when he killed foxface and it wasnt his intention also his love for katniss is so great peeta was a breath of fresh air for me coming out of twilight i was like "FINALLY! A male protagonist who isnt a douch bag and actually loves the female protagonist." also he reminds me of percy jackson

I really like how kind-hearted Peeta is, before he was brainwashed an turned into a mutt designed to kill Katniss of course. I'm happy that Katniss and Peeta ended up together

personally I love Peeta soo much because he is so sensitive and he always gives everything for katniss, even know that first he doesn't have any chance, also he is so freaking sweet, i love the fact that he is always there for Katniss specially in the nights when she has nightmares, he is the only one that can calm her. He was my first crush in the history.

I actually don’t like gale as much, because he’s so controlling and manipulative to Katniss in the third book.

Peeta is the kid who braved a beating to feed Katniss. He is the one willing to take the heat in the arena to save her. He is smart enough to use his own feeling to save Katniss. He knows he cant win, but she can and he loves her enough to go into The Games in a way that pisses her off, but sets her up well for success. He is clever, kind and sure. When Katniss is emotional and really panicking, he is there to steady her. He loves her so much he comes back from the absolute darkness of torture reprogramming and PTSD to find her again. I am the minority who never saw The Hunger Games as a love triangle. It was always Katniss' story, Peeta's love story and Gale getting in the way of both. 😂

Her: Fortni- Me: Ima stop you right there.

*DROPS EVERYTHING TO WATCH LAVENDERTOWNE*

Oooh, I feel like doing IT or The Maze Runner would be interesting

*recommendations?* The Maze Runner, Divergent, and Lord of the Rings :>

after watching this now I really think that isabelle furman (clove in the movie) should have been cast as katniss (apperently she auditioned for katniss but didn't get it).

f o r t n i t e *EVERY 12 YEAR OLD HAS ENTERED THE CHAT*

I like pita because it's good with hummus :P

What I love about Peeta: Everything, girl. ❤️

I LOVED what they did with Effie in the movies. I didnt really like how Effie was described in the books, but her big, colorful costume designs in the movie really show the true nature of the Capitol, selfishly colorful and bright compared to the districts. You can see this clearly in the scenes when she is in District 12, where she sticks out like a sore thumb compared to the dull grey hues of District 12. If you pay attention to her costumes throughout the movies, you can slowly see her change from a blind person who follows the Capitol into a truely kind person who wants the districts to be free (this can be clearly seen in her butterfly costume during the reaping for the 75th hunger games), and she is definitely my favorite character throughout the series. Amazing drawings btw, I love your videos!

I saw another comment suggesting Coraline for the next by-the-book I think it would be interesting since Coraline is a bit different from the book to the movie

I think that the movies had a reason for why Peeta didn't lose his leg; and I think it was mainly to show how powerful the Capital's technology was. I mean, they created a whole game that they can 100% control, and sense the technology wasn't stressed a lot in the books, the movie decided that his leg being healed would show the power of the medicine in this time.

Peeta Mellark is one of the most compelling characters in the series he’s kind, caring and confident but he doesn’t know his worth. His mother abused him, causing him to feel not good enough but what kept him going was his love for Katniss. That’s one thing that personally strung me the wrong way with Katniss in the first book she acts as if Peeta is her greatest enemy and I think that fact creates the dynamic of star crossed lovers because if you think about it the readers are somewhat like the capitol in the fact most of us don’t have to go through what they do. It gives Peeta an important role because he knows his chances of survival are low but he still fights, not for himself but for Katniss. Because his love for her is what is so compelling about him he has a great personality, he’s handsome, he could love anyone but he loves Katniss. Also don’t diss my boy Josh Hutcherson like that he was perfect for Peeta

Can we have a second part of this with the rest of the characters?? You’re art is amazing!! I love these 💕

I mean, I was rather apathetic towards Peeta, but I hated Gale so I was more on Peeta's side. Really, though, I was on Team Katniss, as in Katniss saying screw guys and living alone.

peeta's always been my favorite, because his character arc is so good and i feel like josh hutcherson played him well

I recently watched the hunger games and when they introduced Peeta my reaction was just...... *Who is this man and what has he done with peeta?*

5:30: He's just the nicest guy EVEE

Please do Eragon. Just please. This book needs justice.

I would've loved to see your idea on Haymitch! Tbh, I kinda imagined him like hank on Detroit become human, but that's just me. I don't think they did all that well in the movies, but I was excited to see stuff in them!

Peeta is such a sweetheart he just truly cares so much for others and it’s so refreshing
