She is really important in my opinion. Who will give Katniss the pin that is the emblem of the entire rebellion?! Also, who will give Gale the morphling in book 2?
I read that instead of Madge giving Katniss the pin it will be her mom instead which I like a whole lot better. She might say it wass her fathers or something.
Ugh, i hate it when they chose to eliminate details (major details) from the books and into the movie!! It just ruins the whole thing!! That's what happened with Twilight! they were great books but the stupid producers screwed with the movie script and now no body like Twilight any more! I don't want that to happen to the hunger games!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she is really important!!! the pin!!!! the morphling!!! Katniss' friend!! shes important :( i cant wait for the movie but CANT THEY LEAVE A GOOD STORYLINE ALONE FOR ONCE???
What????? That is soooooooo messed up!!!!! :( Who is gonna give Gale the medicine??? Who's gonna sit with Katniss at lunch sometimes??? And whos gonna give Katniss the pin that helps makes this series worth while??? This is just crazy!!!!!
How is it film makers don't seem to get that Harry Potter did incredibly well for a reason..? They stayed true to the books! Has no body else picked up on this yet? Or are they all blind idiots? Not to mention the books become popular for a reason! Another thing film makers don't seem toe grasp, you stick to the books, you do well!
She is the whole reason Katniss is the mockingjay, plus in book 2 it shows how jealous Katniss becomes when people think there is something going on between Madge and Gale.
UGH, Madge is one of my favorite characters, and although the trailer was beyond amazing, and I'm super excited to see the movie, it make's me incredibly sad that Madge will not be in them. She MADE Katniss the Mockingjay! :'(
She gave Katniss the mockingjay pin. That pin is basically the most important part of the book. I think Anna Sopia Robb would make a great Madge Undersee (look at this picture and see the resemblance!!!!!).
I would say yes and no. Yes, because there are several parts where she is important, but I would say no because they would fix it so that things happen well and how they interpret it.
it really wont. i mean i would really prefer if she were in it. i mean i like madge but all she did was giver katniss the pin but i am kinda upset because she was katniss' only "friend."
there are 3 books which it will effect if there was no need for her why was she in the story in the first place. to me when she realises that she has madge as a friend to and always has something clicks and she realises she is not alone and she has lots of people supporting her. i love the way that katniss feels for madge when she sees the things the capitol has done she feels for madge and so do i they conneted and the film crew are leaving her out makes me really annoyed. i'll miss madge
I want to say one more thing! I don't understand why they would bother to cut out such a minor character! Does anyone know how that would serve to improve or shorten the script at all? Very odd choice, I think, on the screenplay writer(s)'s part.
I don't care about Madge. She really isn't important. They can also include Maysilee without Madge. I think they couldn't include her becuase they'd somehow have to explain who Madge is and how she's the mayor's daughter... so that it wouldn't seem like a random girl gives Katniss a pin for no reason and then never appears again.
Besides, she would be another actress to pay for, and Lion's gate isn't made of money.
yay i saw the movie! and yes because she was supposed to give her the mocking jay her mothers sister was in the hunger games and died and it also effects katnisses mom because that was her friend and and in the blizzard when gale gets whipped she brings the medicine and so it really effects the story line but it was a really good movie
In the book Madge gives katniss the pin, but in the movie an old lady gives her the pin.I don't think that it's gonna ruin the movie. i mean someone has to give her a pin.Thts the major part in the story because it gives her courage.
It will affect the movie. How can they explain the back story of the pin? It looks like anyone can get the mockingjay pin (the way Katniss got the pin in the movies) when it was actually given by Madge. The pin belonged to Maysilee Donner, Madge's aunt, so are they going to adapt Maysilee out too?. Despite madge being a minor character, she had an important role to the plot . So cheers to the director, if he manages to make the next movie good.
if madge gives katniss the pin in the book and an old lady gives it to her in the movie than in catching fire who gives gale the medicine?it wont make any sense. man they really screwed up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
