Wes Ball has been the director for both The Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials movie that was released on September 19, 2014 and September 18, 2015. He has made yet, another great movie adaptation from the book series “The Maze Runner.” Screenwriters for The Scorch Trials was T.S. Nowlin and the author of the novel, James Dashner. Some major actors include: Dylan O’Brien, Ki Hong Lee, Kaya Scodelario, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Dexter Darden, and more. The film starts with Thomas (Dylan O’Brien) and his friends being taken to a new location; away from WICKED, an evil organization that had teenagers in a maze. While everyone feels safe, Thomas started to get the feeling that something was not right because the people who helped them, have not released Teresa (Kaya Scodelario). This concerns Thomas to the point that a boy, named Aris Jones (Jocob Lofland), shows him exactly why he should feel that way. …show more content…
Later, Thomas finds out that not only was Jason weird, but also that he is working with Ava Paige (Patricia Clarkson), the head leader of WICKED. Thomas goes in panic mode and gets his friends together to leave; before WICKED can come take them once again. Outside, the world is nothing like they expected to see; collapsed buildings, abandoned bridges, lonely streets, and zombielike people. It felt surreal to see the chaos the world has come to when things go bad quickly. It feels even worse when you know the characters are about to see something they wished they never saw. The scene when Thomas and Minho (Ki Hong Lee) encounter a crank, or zombielike person, for the first time is beyond compare, one of the scariest and best scenes in the movie. It was a spine-chilling scene and the sounds of the cranks made it ten times more
Are friends the best resources when in need? Yes, no? Well in these stories they are. Like in Harry Potter, he used his friends all the time like when he is wondering Voldemort is still really still alive who are the people that he comes to…his friends. Or in The Maze Runner Thomas when thomas is wondering about if he should go out in the maze and face the greevier’s. Who are the people that he goes to...his friends! In these two stories Harry Potter and The Maze Runner there are some similarities, but there are also some differences.
Maze Runner and Anthem are similar in some ways and different in others. In the book Anthem by Ayn Rand, the protagonist Equality 7-2521 is telling us about what it's like to live where he is and all of the rules that he is supposed to follow. In the movie Maze Runner by Wes Ball, the protagonist Greenie has been sent to this place in the middle of a maze and is trying to survive through the movie. In the book Anthem and the movie Maze Runner they have to follow several rules and if they don’t they will be punished for all that they do. These are both popular with most teens, because they can relate to them.
The movie I chose to write about is called “The Maze Runner” It is about a group of children that get dropped off inside a maze. When they wake up they have no memory of who took them there, or why they are there; They call this place “The Glades.” A new person randomly appears each month to try and pass a test which they are unaware of at the time.
I have always loved to read. While most children prefer watching television, I would rather read a book. About two years ago I read the book The Maze Runner, by James Dashner. After reading this book, I realized just how much Christ effects literature. I learned that we can see aspects of Christ in books written by secular authors. You can find Christian allegories that the author didn’t even realize they were writing.
From the intricate costumes and elaborate scenery to the brilliant lighting that enhances the costumes, Finding Neverland was spellbinding and visually captivating. The decision to use a proscenium stage at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts allows most of the audience to focus their attention towards the same particular direction but at various levels of seating providing different viewpoints. As indicated by both the stunning scenery with Big Ben in the background and the words utter by the characters themselves, the audience is informed that the play takes place in London. Taking into consideration that the audience are seated at different levels in the theatre and at various distances from the stage, the production relied on the vivid
In the opening scene of Indiana Jones and The Raiders of the Lost Ark we see Indiana Jones’ whip in his pocket, and his hat from behind. The ordinary world for Indiana Jones is not really boring, as he is living as a professor at Oxford, and he is living day by day, but he is constantly being hit on by many of the undergraduates that he teaches in his Archaeology class. We see the undergraduate girl close her eye lid to display a message that said “LOVE YOU.”
Throughout the book, The Maze Runner by James Dashner, there are many cases where the Gladers could have realized that the world they lived in was fabricated. The Maze was Phase One of the Trials created by WICKED personnel, for the Gladers to solve. From the elevator bringing in random people, the Beetle Blades with cameras and the fact that the sun rise and sets at the same time everyday until the cycle is broken, were sure signs that should have made the Gladers realize it was all an experiment.
In The Maze Runner, Thomas recalls nothing of his life except for his name. He finds himself surrounded by a bunch of boys. Like all the other Gladers, Thomas appears in the Glade terrified and disoriented. However, he senses a powerful bond to the Maze. He quickly exhibits courage and confidence when he saves Alby and Minho from the Grievers after they had to spend the night in the Maze.

The Maze Runner is a 2014 mystery/science fiction film that can be viewed from an archetypal perspective. An archetype can be described as a pattern that can and is copied and recurring symbols or characters. The concept of archetypes came from Carl Jung a psychiatrist who believed that all cultures use archetypes to build stories without communicating to each other about them. Two groups of archetypes are the character and symbolic archetypes. The film The Maze Runner should be analyzed through an archetypal perspective because it has character and symbolic archetypes.

The novel The Maze Runner by James Dashner begins with a teenage boy waking up in an elevator who has no memory of the past, only that his name is Thomas. When the doors of the elevator open up he is pulled into a humongous square surrounding, called the Glade, by a group of teenage boys. The boys in the Glade refer to themselves as the ‘Gladers’. Thomas learns that the Gladers have lived in there for two years and that the Glade is located in the center of a maze which contains a labyrinth of high walls that move during the night and deadly creatures called grievers. The Glade is led by two boys, Alby and Newt; they both maintain order in the Glade by enforcing strict rules and jobs that keep the Gladers busy. A day after Thomas’ arrival an unknown girl arrives in the Glade. This shocks everyone because the Gladers only receive a new person every month, never within the same week. This also shocks everyone because she was the only girl in a maze full of boys. The girl also gives a message that everything is going to change and that she is the last one ever. Right after her message she immediately falls into a coma. The arrival of the girl causes many things to go chaotic including the sun seizing to rise, the Gladers stop receiving supplies from the creators of the maze, and the doors of the Glade that protect the Gladers from the grievers at night stop closing. When the girl, Teresa wakes up she informs Thomas that they both knew each other in the past and that the maze was a code. Thomas and the people who run around the maze to map out the labyrinth, the runners, look through the archives of the maps and find out the code. Then the leader of the runners, Minho, figures out that the cliff they thought was just a cliff was actua...
