With the Hunger Games series coming to an end with Mockingjay — Part 2, one ongoing debate can finally come to an end: Team Peeta or Team Gale? Through four films, Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson brought depth to their characters, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, and gave us a heart-wrenching love story to root for. After seeing the couple go through two Hunger Games and a war against the Capitol, the choice is obvious. We will ALWAYS be Team Peeta.
