I thought the Maze Runner was a long book. Soooo... I have to actually make time to read them and know that it is long. I should start looking through reviews of the rest of the series and see if people enjoyed them.

Not enough to own it, but I thought they did an OK job putting it on screen. The Hunger Games have turned out really good and I hope they keep the same director for the last two films that Catching Fire had. I thought he/she did a great job!!

I love Newt too but I love MinHo more. Hahahaha. <br /><br />Teresa was kind of meh for me. If you decide to continue with the series, you will know more about her. Hahahaha.<br /><br />I hope that the movie would be at par with The Hunger Games. It would be such a waste if it didn't. Ender's Game didn't even make it to the box office.<br /><br />Great review.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096025184721737678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507186203094106045.post-67597040940480818672013-12-10T11:04:11.386-07:002013-12-10T11:04:11.386-07:00Yea..

I never liked her throughout this series. If you dislike her already, it's probably not going to get better.

Funny thing is they build the maze up to this big big deal yet at one point when Thomas is upset he just runs out in it for a day and then comes back. I thought it would be more like the Harry Potter maze with so many challenges throughout the maze.

It took too long for the good things to happen and none of the characters called to me especially. The premise is really cool though and I'm excited for the movie! I also really want to see a trailer come out soon.<br /><br />-P.E. @ <a href="http:/thesireniccodex.blogspot.ca" rel="nofollow">The Sirenic Codex</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17045558423044874125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507186203094106045.post-28682640614073194732013-12-09T15:23:26.184-07:002013-12-09T15:23:26.184-07:00Way behind!
