i think that this film made lots of money at they box-office because its the 3rd film of the franchise and was originally a book series, they also separated mocking jay into two parts, making it seem more like an epic, this would intrigue people making them think that they must watch part one and part two, the movie was also publicised incredibly, persuading people to go and see the film. 

Jennifer Lawrence also seen in another famous franchise, ( playing mystic in days of future past and x-men first class) which will have attracted people to go and see mocking jay part 1 simply because she is staring as the main character, i think that because she w in the movie the people advertising it made sure that i was known, the advertisers would have used this to their advantage, they would have also used josh Hutchinson's fame to help promote the film as lots of people like the actor.

i think that this film also encouraged other teen targeted books to be made in to movies for example maze runner and divergent.
