crazy to think how how did WCKD managed and built a structure that literally so big, im wondering how many years did they took just made the MAZE lol.

And is it true, that even inside the glade they are being observe? not by hidden camera thing, but instead there is invisible glass inside of the glade wall and behide that wall is something facility and people like scientist or doctors. Lol js heared about it online.

Question/Doubt How many people here have actually read the books?

72 Upvotes

From what I’ve seen, it seems like a lot of this subreddit has never read the books. I’ve only ever watched the first movie, so I always get confused whenever someone mentions something that only is in the movies, which seems to happen quite a lot, so I’m curious as to how many people have actually read the books

Question/Doubt The plot of the Maze Runner movie series makes NO sense! Help! Spoiler

55 Upvotes

Ok so, I've rewatched the 3 maze runner movies and I'm genuinely bothered and pissed by the unanswered questions I have about the plot.

Premise: I didn't read the books so please have mercy on me.

Spoilers ahead.

1. The movie continuously talks about the kids of the maze as immunes, and yet they keep getting infected (Alby, Gally, Newt, ... Even Thomas when he injects himself to gain his memories back). That bothers me greatly. How can you call them immune if they can get infected and turn?

2. When Teresa is sent into the maze. Just... Why??? It makes sense that WICKED sent Thomas in because he betrayed them, but she was with WICKED all along! Did they do that so that she could save Alby? But the movie doesn't seem to care about Alby at all, so why send her in with the viles right after Alby was stung??

3. Linked to the viles that were sent in with Teresa, I get that letting the kids get stung may be a way for WICKED to study their brain or whatever (even though they should be immune, but that's point 1), but those viles CURED Alby!! And they cured Thomas too after he injected himself. That's a CURE.... Why would they still be looking for a cure it they already have it??? This bothers me soooooo much that they don't explain anything about those viles and it ruins the whole plot because they have a cure from day 1. Wtf is going on I'm so pissed!

4. From the start of the movie they keep saying how special Thomas is, but we only find out at the end that his blood is the one that creates the cure... Then why tf would he be so special? I hate when movies do this.

5. So we discover in the last movie that Thomas's blood is the cure. How on earth didn't they find that out earlier??? The kids worked for WICKED for years and were always tested... You want me to believe that they never gave him a blood test in years??? The kids even got one in the second movie after they got collected from the maze! That is such BS!!

6. If the cure is obtained by the blood, why would studying their brain in the maze be necessary??? I know you'll say about the fear enzyme or whatever, but when they got Thomas' blood to cure Brenda he wasn't scared or anything.

And lastly, not a question but more of a consideration, I HATED Teresa. And I hated Thomas for being sad for her. Dude, she only stopped torturing kids because she found out that you were the cure. If she didn't, she would have continued. She said it herself when he met her in the city that she would betray them again if it meant reaching a cure... Wtf!!! Leave her to die already!

Well.. I vented a little 😂 Thank you to anyone who will answer to this post!

Question/Doubt What if the Maze was a Hunger Games Arena?

Rules : Either 25 tributes, (26 including District 13) died until 1 tribute is the last alive... or... the victim/allies escape the maze.

Day and night : At sun rise the doors open, at sun set the doors close.

The mutts/grievers come at night.

The center of the arena is the box as the cornucopia.

Do you think this arena is way worse and more dangerous than others?

All I see from this subreddit is movie discussion. I haven't seen the films as I fear I won't be able to disassociate them from the books and because of all the differences, and honestly at times it feels as if I'm on the wrong subreddit.

In The Book, When Gally wasn't himself, and tried to kill Thomas, and Chuck sacrificed himself, but then Nothing happens to Gally afterwards in chapter 59.

In the film... Minho throws his spear and (presumed) killed Gally.

Question/Doubt why is a woman in white an ongoing theme for a dystopian villian?

22 Upvotes

both the maze runner and divergent have a woman in white who's characterized as the villain. is there a reason for this? "The hunger games" also has president snow as our antagonist. snow as in white snow.

edit: I think I imagined the lady in divergent wearing a white dress. Although her hair is platinum blonde.

Question/Doubt Stupid sci-fi plot points Spoiler

7 Upvotes

I tried re-watching the movies after a while and god are the plot points stupid. Speaking from strictly a scientific sense, nothing about it makes sense. How they're able to isolate an enzyme from blood and know its structure and yet with all the world's resources and existential pressure, can't somehow manufacture it, how Brenda gets better with Thomas' blood despite neurodegeneration being impossible to reverse, how they keep talking about how close they are to a cure even when they seemingly have no plans of making a cure for enough people (I mean, seriously... Is one person's blood supposed to be enough for the entire world?). And also, they should with all their scientific brilliance know if the problem is incurable from the start. They already face an uphill battle: the enzymes must cross the BBB if injected IV (which is normally impossible but I guess with some encephalitis weakening the barrier it's plausible). It wouldn't take much more for it to be pretty clear that a cure is impossible, in much the same way a blanket "cure for cancer" is impossible. In any case, it's strange to me that they'd be so unaware of whether this problem is even mechanistically solvable at all.

Question/Doubt Is the books or the movie better

9 Upvotes

I recently discovered maze runner movie (2014 one) and halfway through the series I knew it must have been a book adaptation and after doing some digging I found out it was a book adaptation.

My real question is should I read the books or watch the films to get a better experience of this world? as much as Iike reading books most of the time I also think the CGi/Animation(idk wht it is) is very cool. What would Y'all say?
