The why is obvious.
The how will be much more interesting.

Fair. I guess "Why" meaning Why would they need to be in that movie when it takes place 25 years before, well before either were born. Of course the why though is Money

The book has an epilog that takes place after the events of the original books and specifically mentions them.

Because it is their chosen profession?

Oh my! He's the actor of the TV show Future Man!

I urge everyone to watch this show! It's ridiculously amazing, and too few people know about it!

Corey Wolfheart for the win!!

I couldn't believe how good Future Man was.

I thought it would be garbage at worst/ somewhat ok low budget sci fi show at best, instead it was a really well done show that got to tell its story.

It's about time for me to do a rewatch too, I've forgotten enough details about it by now.

That is great news. The first two Hunger Games were fun. Hopefully this one will be as well.

Hunger Games: The Middle age Fajita Conspiracy

I've actually never seen any of the Hunger Games movies. I have seen many of the other YA dystopia movies from the early to mid 2010 (scary how that period is becoming "old school").

The divergent series was sort of entertaining, but also very trashy. It had a teenage fanfic type vibe. I like the Maze Runner series, the first had a lot of potential; when I first saw it, I was hoping for a modern take on Lord of the Flies mixed in with Arthur Clarke's Rama series. Didn't really work out like that. :)
