I still remember "Maze Runner 1" when I was alone in renting a house in XGLL, and I watched it with LLJ sister.
I remember that "Maze Runner 1" gave me the feeling that the subject matter was very novel. It was no longer about all kinds of superheroes saving the earth in a fancy way, and the skills of the characters were no longer about getting bigger and smaller, flying around, and launching. Light waves, automatic clothes changing...
A group of young people who have no memory of the outside world are locked in a labyrinth and live a life that is close to primitive. They began to want to find out who they are, where they came from, and where they are.
What's new is the maze setup, which changes what the actors need to fight against.
In superhero movies, the actors are fighting against things that are generally big, powerful, skilled, and a little ugly monsters. If you want to beat them, in addition to justice and kindness, the other thing is to see when the director wants you to win.
In "Maze Runner 1", the various levels in the maze are "fresh things" that are different from traditional superhero movies.
When it comes to "Maze Runner 2", to be honest, I don't know what this part wants to talk about, it's more like a transition.
The protagonists escaped the labyrinth, came to the laboratory, and found that the test item was themselves. They escaped from the laboratory, and the outside was all lost. They searched for the "rebels (? Forgot their name...)" in the mountains, found the rebels, and were surrounded and suppressed by the laboratory. Resha betrays Thomas and his party, and Mino is arrested.
As a movie, it really doesn't have a theme, it's more like an American drama... Let's make it a little longer, and this is "The Maze Runner" (season 2).
When it comes to "Maze Runner 3", this one has a lot of logic bugs that I don't understand... (Maybe it's my own bugs too much)
The third part tells that Mino was brought into the city, and Thomas and his party went to rescue Mino. CITY is a refuge city built by a laboratory. The world is desolate, and the refuge city is still lined with high-rise buildings. CITY grabbed Mino because Mino was immune, and they needed to collect Mino's blood to study antibodies.
I don't understand that since Mino and Thomas are immunized, why do they have to drain their blood for research, since there are not many immunizations, can't they be used sparingly?
I don't understand that since Mino and Thomas are immune to this, can't I draw some blood from you for research? The earth has become like this, sacrificing a few people can save the whole world, really, the whole government will persuade you to do this.
I don't understand why the ghost-faced man led a group of "crazy men" (so called in the movie) to attack CITY? Doesn't CITY take in survivors? Why don't so many survivors take in? Can the "crazy guest" not attack CITY? You go and let him take you in.
Is that a zombie? Why do you move so fast, and still climb the slope between the old buildings? The ability to climb slopes should be thoughtful, so what kind of species is this?
And I really don't understand what this zombie is attracted by? Humanity? sound? light? I don't get it....
There are still a lot of things that I don't understand.... I should have read it carefully from the beginning to the end. Unless there is a problem with the translation, I should not have missed it.
Anyway, it's an unknown...
And I really hate superman-like zombies, zombies should be like in "the walking dead", scary, but slow and mindless. Just a dead man who only knows how to walk...
The release times of "Maze Runner 1" and "2" were in 2014 and 2015 respectively. Maybe 15 years is really just a transition. As a result, "3" was not transitioned out. In 2018, superhero movies have successively released movies that are no longer so "superhero", so "Maze Runner" with some characteristics has become less characteristic. In the end, at the creative request of the father of each investment party, in order not to lose money, various elements were incorporated, and then there is the current "3". According to this, there should be no "4".
The last paragraph is my guess, a layman's guess without level.
