Re: Love triangles?

It depends. Love triangles like the ones in Twilight tick me off because the guys usually act like complete douchebags and treat the woman like a prize. I like love triangles like the one in The Hunger Games (if you'd even really call that a proper love triangle) because Gale and Peeta didn't especially dislike each other (Gale even mentioned that he found it impossible to hate Peeta because he thought he was a genuinely kind person) and they both respected the idea that Katniss should be with whoever she wants to be with, even if they were still a little jealous. I also really liked the scene where Peeta gave Katniss a locket with pictures of her most dear people in it and he thought to include a picture of Gale because he understood and respected the fact that Gale was an important person in her life. So yeah, I can stomach love triangles of that sort. I do actually ship Gale/Peeta though. I kind of like to toy around with the idea of Gale/Katniss/Peeta but I freely acknowledge the fact that it just wouldn't work, especially considering the events of the last book.

Yes this is awesome. Hunger Games should get more credit for the fact that its love triangle at least shows respect to the people as humans.

It hurts my heart when I see people dismissing it as any kind of derivative of Twilight (I have actually seen people claim this and then mock me when I pointed out they were different)

ayrt

Ugh, yeah I hate that. I mean, I understand why some people still wouldn't like the idea of a character having two possible love interests, but it's definitely not like Twilight at all. I blame the media for trying to play up the love triangle aspect and for trying to push the Team Gale and Team Peeta bullshit on people

It doesn't help that book lists, stores, etc. looove to market The Hunger Games and Twilight as being exactly alike. No. They're nothing alike, except they have young female heroines.
