Watch “The Hunger Games” clip from Sunday’s VMAs


By Sean O’Connell
Hollywoodnews.com: Kim covered the official release of our first look at Gary Ross’s “The Hunger Games,” which premiered Sunday night at the MTV Video Music Awards. Jennifer Lawrence, who stars as Katniss, introduced the clip with a video message from the film’s set in North Carolina. Then they ran the short, 60-second clip.

Here is Kim’s analysis.

And here’s the clip, so you can judge for yourself!

We see the woods. We see Lawrence, running. We see flames. We hear Liam Hemsworth as Gale, narrating. And we end with Katniss shooting an arrow through the “Hunger Games” logo.

“The Hunger Games” is based on Suzanne Collins’s best-selling novels. It’s the first installment in a four-film series from Lionsgate. Co-starring Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson, Stanley Tucci, Elizabeth Banks and Woody Harrelson, “The Hunger Games” will be in theaters on March 23, 2012.
