It won't just be Elizabeth Banks's Effie Trinket who gets some gloriously crazy outfits this time, and though the flame effects on Katniss and Peeta's outfits don't seem to have improved that much, overall Catching FIre is looking like a serious visual upgrade. The IMAX is just a bonus. You can check out the newest trailer below and let us know if the visuals have you as impressed as we are.

Catching Fire helmer Francis Lawrence won't be reusing Hunger Games director Gary Ross' frantic shooting style, since it wouldn't thematically-enhance the storyline for Catching Fire. However, the violence in the Arena is still going to be Rated PG, so expect similar amounts of cutaways during those moments like what Ross did - which, it's worth pointing out, does allow the film to retain the anti-exploitation entertainment angle of Suzanne Collins' source material.
That's all to say: Catching Fire is sure to boast more grand spectacle and eye candy than Hunger Games ; whether the artistry of Ross' original vision will be enhanced, retained, or diminished, in Catching Fire and the subsequent Mockingjay installments which Lawrence is also directing - that's another matter.

By Sandy Schaefer Published Nov 26, Lawrence isn't the first director to use newer film technology to mark a shift within a film's narrative Joseph Kosinski used IMAX 3D to stun audiences upon first entering the digital world of TRON: Legacy , but the choice is a promising one in terms of tone and spectacle.
In the novel upon which Catching Fire is based, the overwhelming of Katniss' senses that marks her entry into the second fight of her life is one of the more memorable moments of the story, so any attempt to give that sensation to the audience, as well as the heroine, is to be applauded. Gathering so many distinguished actors for the franchise's final chapter s is a good way of stealing the spotlight, but Catching Fire needs to succeed first.
The cast set to do battle in Catching Fire isn't lacking either, but this brief look at the action and approach to a bigger, bolder, and more deadly Arena is sure to keep fans focused on the present, not the future.
Not to mention fuel IMAX pre-sales, kicking off today in most areas. What do you think of the transformation from standard format to IMAX being used as part of the overall direction?
