I thought they only beat him up, I didn't know he died in that scene....

Well, so now I know I won't be seen him in the sequels.
Yes he dies.

Seen it again today, what a fucking great movie. It's pretty unreal at times how gorgeous the movie looks, the IMAX scenes have a noticeable bump in definition, even in 2K, so sharp and beautiful.

I'm not saying this movie's bad, because I haven't seen it yet, but it's like you love every movie.

Just saw it yesterday and loved it, though I'll need a second viewing for better perspective. I think what I love most about it is its visual and tonal distinction from the (also great) first one -- CF is a colder film. This shift is made easier by the blends inherent in the story. On the other hand, it doesn't feel like too big a step from THG, and there are some nice tie-ins, like the musical cues and the brief scene between Katniss and Gale before the Reaping.
Highlights:
-JLaw (surprise)
-Winter opening
-Katniss' PTSD moments
-Haymitch's line about the Games not having any winners
-The pre-Games deaths, and the unceremonious end to the Reaping
-The puzzle of the arena
-The whole ending sequence, starting with the arena collapse
