In less than two months, "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" will be released in cinemas and as a tribute to the final installment, Lionsgate has decided to pull on the heartstrings of the audience with a tearjerker trailer.

Telegraph UK writes that the "For Prim" trailer is extremely different from the last clip released in July, wherein audience and fans were shown a part of the wedding of Fennick and Annie and a grandiose attack on the Capitol. This new teaser shows the real reason behind the revolution; why Katniss Everdeen, played by Academy Award winner Jennifer Lawrence, and her sister Prim, played by Willow Shields, had to be in the center of it all; and what true sisterhood means.

ABC Online reports that the latest teaser highlights the unshakable bond between the two sisters, from Katniss volunteering herself as a tribute to replace her sister, up to the point where we see Prim coming to her own. Katniss is also seen telling President Snow that she never asked for a revolution or a rebellion; all she wanted was to save her sister and to keep her co-tribute Peeta alive. Of course, President Snow has to break the sting by saying, "It's the things we love most that destroys us."

Not everyone is happy with the new trailer though, as it showed too much plot points from the novel itself. E! News Online reports that the trailer may have been too much of a reminder of how the movie will play out, especially after the trailer showed almost every excruciating detail of what has happened to Katniss and Prim.

Fans took to Twitter their "feelings" towards the trailer and it left the social media platform raging with emotions.

Others, however, felt that it was one of the best trailers they have ever seen, simply because they were touched as to how strong sibling love is - so strong that it can build an army and destroy a huge enemy.

With a trailer like this, it's no wonder fans can't wait to see the entire film. They'll need to wait until October 1st to buy their tickets for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part Two" as it debuts on cinemas this November 19th.
