Hello. I'm reading through your comments on the discussion and I will be answering. However, I wanted to sort of put all my ideas in one place as well. I wasn't able to watch it yesterday like I had planned, but I just got back from the cinema and i've got so much on my mind. So, here are my thoughts on the movie and my experience.
First of all, the movie was amazing. I loved every single minute of it. Obviously, i think we all know that it (and all the other movies) are different from the books. Yet, I still felt the same pain and happiness watching it that I did while reading it.
Many of you have already pointed it out, but Newt and Gally are my favorite characters. Obviously Newt has won everyone over from the very beginning. Gally, however, hasn't always been everyone's favorite. I think what kind of made me especially interested in him is probably the fact tha will is the actor that plays him (sort of how everyone loves malfoy because tom). However, this movie he definitely pulled through for the team and showed us that he's really there to fight with the gladers and not against them. It showed us where his heart truly stands. I came out loving gally even more than i have. Also, his comments made me laugh so much. I loved when he was interrogating Teresa and when she looked at thomas he was alike "why are you looking at him? don't look at him. look at me." also when he told minho that no ones perfect because minho asked him why he was helping them after he literally struck a spear through his chest. I LOVED IT!
Now, let's talk about Frypan actually. I'm so glad they gave him such a HUGE role. I loved seeing him and enjoyed seeing him so often. I'm glad that he wasn't just pushed to the side like most characters are in most book to movie adaptions. I genuinely was super happy.
Newt. I am speechless. I knew what was coming. I knew that Newt was going to die, but I still bawled my eyes out. Every time he came on screen i would tear up knowing what his outcome was. I cried and cried when he was with thomas. I cried when he was like super crank mode and suddenly he kind of just stops, regains his humanity and apologizes. it's kind of like the book. kind of how he stops for a moment as if he's gained one last trembling gasp of sanity before telling thomas to kill him. i love him so much. and he's so dear to my heart. i cried so damn hard when thomas was reading the letter. i just feel so dead. my baby deserved better :( however like i've said many times before, i think his death was necessary. i think it was kind of a point where everyone (especially the readers) was like "oh shit" because newt is supposed to be our glue and now he's gone.
now, i just wanna end by saying that basically i cried because it's the end. this trilogy was what brought me back to my reading self. its why i continued to read and read. i hadn't picked up a book so good that legitimately engulfed me in a way that no other book had before. because of these books i also read harry potter. so, i was just so heartbroken that it's the last movie for this trilogy. i love it so much and i always always will. there's so much more i have to say but i don't want to bore you with my blabbing. thank you so much.
PS: i just wish they would've done the deaths just like they were in the books. i think it would've been a better way of letting them go. aLSO WE WERE ROBBED FROM THE SCENE OF NEWTS INCIDENT AND WHOLE BACKGROUND.

The Maze Runner Imagines
FanfictionI've always loved writing, but I've always been horrible at making an entire story. Short imagines are definitely a great way of sharing my writing, and so that's why I do them! I absolutely love The Maze Runner trilogy. I hope you enjoy my imagine...
