The Kill Order In The Maze Runner

The Maze Runner, directed by Wes Ball in 2014 is Science Fiction action film. It follows the journey of a band of teenage boys trapped in a glade surrounded by a seemingly endless maze. As we meet each character, their power status is conveyed through film techniques such as camera angles and colour as well as through their personality. This is especially shown through the characters Thomas and Gally as they often clash in both their power struggle and curious verses security beliefs.

However, they also have strong differences. Bryon is a big hustler. He tries to get money by playing pool at bars. Mark, on the other hand, is a thief. He sneaks around picking pockets and stealing money from people. Even though both boys have fun fighting and stealing, Bryon starts to see that fighting people for no reason is wrong. Mark still thinks stealing is enjoyable and amusing. Mark is very conceded and only care about himself and his feelings. Unlike Mark, Bryon cares about other people's emotions and thinks before he acts. For example, when Mike Chambers, a boy in the hospital, told his story of how he got beat up, Mark said he would hate that person for the rest of his life. Bryon understood why the person might have done such a terrible

The title The Death Cure, seems almost oxymoronic, falsely true. From the first book, The Maze Runner, it seems like WICKED is desperately searching for a cure that could possibly prevent the extinction of the human race from the Flare. Mainly, The Death Cure is focusing on the cure to the disease. But as we read on, it seems like there was never a cure, but death. The cure looks like it could be letting everyone who has been infected, die while the immunes get to start over. WICKED should have been searching for a way to stop the spread of the disease instead of finding a cure for death, which has been their main problem.

Some of the little conflicts include children's memories getting erased and not knowing how they got to the mysterious village which everyone lives in. Overall the main conflict is the fact that all of the children are basically trapped in their village. There is a big wall that opens everyday. On other side of the wall is the maze.There are runners that will go out into the maze to see if they can find an exit to the real world. This is really hard considering the maze changes its shape everyday.This is a person versus person problem. This is the maze children versus the makers of the maze. The conflict is similar to one of the conflicts in "The Mocking Jay". In the Mocking Jay the people in district 13 have to hide from the rest of the public just like the children in "The Maze Runner.

Growing up, Mark was mostly on the run from the government because his parents were one of the leaders of the rebellion. Right now Mark is eleven years old, this is the day everything had changed. The government had found where the rebels had been hiding and launched an attack. Many people had been taken including Mark’s parents. Mark himself barely escaped the capture of the government. But Mark remembered the last thing his mother told him “You must be brave son, as you are everyone's last hope.”

Mark had moved in with Bryon and his mother at an early age, due to the fact that his parents had shot each other during an argument (Hinton 115). Mark was the product of a broken home.

Mark’s early childhood experiences resulted in him being emotionless and dysfunctional.
