Zephy here

Okay so I was just wondering to anyone who cares to give their input, do you all think the district jobs in the movie are canon? Like do you think they were Collins' ideas? Because I noticed on here that District Nine, for example, is filled with refineries, but in the movie their industry is grain, and this fact is BRIEFLY hinted to in Catching Fire during the Tribute Parade. I just wanted to know your opinions on it.

Thanks y'all ^-^

Hi Zephy! The films and the books are Canon, and everything in them is also. This site was created before the films came out, and so the references to the district's jobs aren't included on this site, because it would cause some difficulties in changing some characters roles.

Hope this helped,
Ghosty

A little bit of history time, but the districts that we have now are actually much closer to the district industries we had before the films and some of the books came out. Once more information was revealed in Mockingjay, the district industries went through a massive swap/alteration to what we have now. If you are interested, you can read about it here (the IC way the site made the change).

Because of this, some of the older characters (characters created before we went through the site-wide district industry change) still reference to the "old" industry. This has also allowed us to have inter-district events due to the nature of the change.

Just a fun fact for the day. :3
