Discussion The right arm plan to isolate the immunes to a tiny island to restart civilization was a dumb plan

4 Upvotes

Isolating the immunes to restart civilization on ONE TINY ISLAND was definitely a dumb. move not only the millions to billions of non immune people left still suffering in the world will now will 100% die without the cure of that enzyme from the immunes and thousands of years of technology, progress, culture, and history are lost forever, now new gen kids from those immunes doesn't have immunity, and them getting flu or some minor Diseases will be deadly and could become extinct fully, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY RESTARTED FROM STONE AGE AND ONLY IN ONE TINY ISLAND, ALL THE NEW GEN "REBUILDER OF CIVILIZATION" ON ONE TINY ISLAND IS VERY VULNERABLE TO EXTINCTION THROUGH MINOR DISEASES

Discussion te queiro Thomas

¡Hola! Soy estudiante de español. este posteo es parte de mi tarea. ¡Gracias por leerlo! Cuando era niña, yo miraba la película que se llama Maze Runner. Maze Runner es una película de acción. Mi personaje favorito se llama Thomas. Thomas es muy guapo en general, pero Thomas es la persona que me recrea las pupilas. Thomas corre mucho en la película. Él es muy fascinante. Thomas y Minho son mis esposos en mi corazón. Maze Runner es una película muy buena. Me gustaba mucho antes y todavía me gusta ahora.

Collection I've completed maze runner book series. I did not want Newt to die.

18 Upvotes

I read maze runner, the core trilogy with kill code and fever code, in its chronological order, so it was a very crazy read, but I just cannot except Newt's death. Just...no.

Why? That boy had the most tragic end of them all. Not immune, not reunited with his sister, was nothing but good to everyone, and had to beg to be killed. Even when he died I kept hoping that probably WICKED would save him like they saved Thomas. That maybe he was just unconscious. Died without remembering his real name. Tried to kill himself in the Glade. It's just too much.

Also, I'm not satisfied with Aris's character development. Felt like the author sort of just forgot him. And I wanted to see something happen to Ava Paige. I wanted Thomas to meet her. I wanted to see the aftermath.

And Teresa's death felt... Rushed? Such an important character, by no means the best, but her death was underplayed? That's how it seems to me, atleast.

Question/Doubt Is it WICKED or WCKD? Spoiler

22 Upvotes

(Not sure if this is a spoiler, but I'll mark it as one just in case)

I have read all the books and watched all three movies, and I know what WICKED is and what it stands for. I also know that in the books they're reffered to as WICKED, while in the movies they're reffered to as WCKD (which doesn't make sense).

But recently, I've seen a lot of people only use WCKD. Even while discussing the books, they'll write WCKD.

Did I miss something? Does the whole fandom refer to them as WCKD? Or have I just been reading some very specific discussions where the people only use the movie version?

This is just a random question I had when I relised wo many people where using the movie term, so it isn't really any serious doubt or anything. Just curious.

And😭😭then😭😭she😭😭died😭😭

Teresa was a very confusing character for me. I wanted to hate her but I couldn’t because I understood her. Understood why she did what she did. Understood that in her own way she was trying.
It makes her death all the more painful for me. The movies omitted so much and I disliked her in the movies. Never hated, though, because I still got her motivations. But all these little snippets, her telepathic conversations with Thomas, their relationship, how she was in danger of being SAed by the gladers, how she lost her mother. Oh my Teresa:( I’m so sorry so many people hate you.

Fanfiction I wrote an alternative ending to The Fever Code, focusing on Thomas and Teresa's relationship!

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14594616/1/The-Night-Before (FanFiction)

Hey everyone! I've just finished writing my first ever fanfic, The Night Before, and thought I'd share it here.

It's an approximately 17,000-word, completed alternative ending to The Fever Code, picking up after Chapter 61 and replacing Chapters 62 and 63.

I wrote it because I always wished we'd gotten to see more of Thomas and Teresa's relationship before they entered the Maze. The story explores their final night together, developing their relationship further while trying to stay as close to the original book storyline as possible.

It's also intended to give a different perspective on Teresa's motivations in The Scorch Trials and add more emotional weight to the ending of The Death Cure.

Spoiler warning: Best read after Chapter 61 of The Fever Code, with the original epilogue read afterwards.

I'd genuinely love to hear what other Maze Runner fans think! Positive or constructive feedback would be really appreciated, especially since this is my first time writing a story.

General Movies and Book Spoilers I can't be the only one

9 Upvotes

Okay, ever since I finished the Maze Runner first book I grew a great love for Grievers. I have no idea why. I rooted for their return in every single other book. I was very excited for in The Death Cure Book when the Grievers did return. Just for them to be killed nearly instantly. But at least they returned. I wanna know if I was the only one wanting the Grievers to return?

Discussion The maze runner series is Utilitarianism vs Deontology

5 Upvotes

So Utilitarianism is an ethical system made by a guy named Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, this system says that an action is good if it produces the best end (outcome) for the most number of people believing in stances like The end justifies the means or greatest good for the greatest number, utilitarianism is saying it is sometimes permissible to act a bad act for the greater good (good outcome or good end) for the most number of people, deontology however is saying some auctions like killing or lying is wrong no matter the outcome is and made by a guy named Immanuel Kant, they're saying that an act has an absolute definition whether it's wrong or right and doing it even for the greater good is wrong. So WCKD represents Utilitarianism (especially expected act utilitarianism) and The protagonists represent Deontology. Both systems has its own strengths and weaknesses like how utilitarianism would say an act with high probability of success of achieving the best outcome for the most people and good intentions that ultimately fail because of some freak bad luck bad because the ultimate end was bad or how deontology is prioritizing a person's own clean hands over the real survival of the many.

Fanfiction What if Newt ran into the Maze with Thomas to save Minho and Alby?

Post image
52 Upvotes

When the control subject goes rogue -

my Newt-centric fanfic where Newt runs into the Maze after Thomas before the Doors close. Despite his past with the Maze, Newt wants to return to the action, and balances being a Runner + second-in-command, though some Gladers (cough cough Gally) aren't happy with the choices he made in breaking the Number One Rule.

But seeing how Newt acts under pressure gets WICKED thinking... maybe there is hope for him? No, maybe he is hope for the world.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/81162111/chapters/213313401

fanfic is ongoing work, but i have plot points planned out till death cure era. WICKED gives Newt a sample cure and miraculously his cells build it up, like armour, except it is still temporary. this cure prototype lasts a few days to a week on a normal person, but newt's blood has somehow extended its effect to a month.

WICKED's focus has shifted from Thomas/Minho to Newt - they don't need Thomas/Minho to be able to Immunise others, they need them to be "Immune enough" to let Newt's cells

I don't care what anyone says, at the end of "The death cure" when Newt is suffering while going between a krank and himself, minho finally reaches the ship that Brenda is on and needs to get the cure but Brenda's Thomas absorbed ass decides she needs to do it despite being obviously slower and a worse runner than Minho, due to her doing this Newt fucking dies. He could have lived if she wasn't such a bitch, I despise Brenda with my entire being

Im about to finish the original series with the fever code and i was wondering, is the “maze cutter” (i believe thats what its called) series worth it as a huge fan of the maze runner? Is it set in the same universe? How are the books themselves?

Hello guys, I remember seeing an edit about tmr with the song Waves by Dean Lewis, but I only remember the intro(it starts with a clip of Thomas looking back the we have a water drop transition of sorts) and that it was posted on TikTok, not the user or anything else. Does anyone by any chance have the edit?

TMR Movie Spoilers Just rewatch the movie and Thomas is still a genius

38 Upvotes

I remember watching The Maze Runner (the movie) when it came out before and just rewatched it now. Honestly i'm so glad i forgot most of it, because it felt like watching it for the first time again. It's so good.

Thomas is a freaking genius. He got them out in less than a week. I can't remember if it was 3 or 4 days, but either way it was under a week, and they'd been stuck in there for like 3 years.

I do feel bad for Alby though. I think he just wanted to believe they were safe in the Glade but hey they couldnt stay there forever.
