it feel to be promoted hey they were just for outside they break breaking rules they’re different they’re Runners they know more about the maze than anyone what you just said maze I did oh chuck oh you’re done messed up now chuck chuck doesn’t have a vault why won’t you tell me what’s out there trying to protect you man for your own good you guys can’t just keep me here I can’t let you leave why not he’s doing the Chris Pratt hand stay where you are blue oh what uh awesome I would like to go out

now this is pretty intriguing so far it’s a metaphor crushed by circumstance welcome to the Glade the Glade or the blade I still don’t know what they’re saying yeah they’re interchangeable sure there are plenty of blades in the Glade all right bonfires where’d you get that cow head or horse head or whatever that is the skull we’re trapped here for the moment how’s the runners that guy in the middle there that’s Mina the coolest one they run the maze memorizing it trying to find a way out how long have they been looking three years oh

my God that’s too long but yeah it’s amazing changing oh this is some sick psycho ward they’re all watching you yeah you’re all Lab Rats Runners are the only ones that really know what’s out there and it’s a good thing too because if they don’t make it back before those doors close then they’re stuck out there for the night how many of you lost no one’s ever survived the night oh but you will you got this Dylan O’Brien yeah man you’re the greeny they never saw it coming what happened or we call them Grievous of

course no one’s ever seen one and live to tell about it Grievers good why a novel terminology no no one wants to be a runner and besides you don’t get chosen if chosen by who the jerk guy you don’t like now fight and show you’re worthy what do you say Greenie wanna see What You’re Made Of yes creamy greeny greeny greeny greeny greeny the rules are simple Greenie I’m trying to push you out of the circle try to last more than five seconds ready he’s not doing so hot what do you want to be called

Shank you are too funny I think I’m settled on Shank it’s better than radish that’s what I can get him oh boy nice now you’ve done it you’ve upset the structure you upset the hierarchy man Thomas what oh that’s my name I remember my name I’m Thomas all right Tommy Boy I’ve never seen that either I do love how every single y novel adaptation does have like a sequence where they take a break to dump all the new terminology on you yeah these guys are called the this and those are called the that yeah dang

oh that’s spooky we lost a lot of boys to fear Panic we’ve come far since then established order why are you telling me this because you’re not like the others and the audience needs to know that you’re curious he was there for five like five minutes oh oh no oh boy okay or George they don’t even try and climbing in the top yes anything you think of we’ve already tried the only way out here is through the maze now look you want to be helpful yes obviously I guess that’s some more fertilizer some late Reflex

on that catch what do we got bones oh great damn they did not bury that body very well and George must not have died in The Maze oh oh he looks so good buddy Ben right I don’t know if we uh ever what the oh my God what are you okay what oh damn oh my gosh she’s I saw you your fault what that’s right yes oh no who a some heavy stunts in this game not gonna lie this kind of going hard yeah definitely help what the fudge oh my goodness oh oh stung by

a griever contact with a griever he’s been stuck in the middle of the day we gotta put him down put him in the pit come on everybody I’m pretty sure he’s gonna be able to break out of that pit I wonder what it must have been like to be some of the other people hanging out in the field all day shooting he said he saw me you know this is all my fault how could this be my fault let’s get some rest what do you know oh just please listen to me please man sorry dude

that’s hardcore they’re just gonna like send them out oh no please please don’t please don’t do it oh you’re gonna become one of them buddy you gotta go oh they’re gonna have to push him with those tea sticks yeah uh yep here we go cheese man awkward just run buddy just go just accept your fate get out of there you don’t want to be squished to death yeah you’re gonna get smushed come on run oh what are you doing oh my God oh hey okay so he accepted smooshing as his fate or uh well he

just didn’t want to go take his chances with the maze he’s right there okay he doesn’t want to get soft-fived right now you think he might make it he did survives the night in the maze you don’t know that man yeah you haven’t been out there Chuck oh here we go another dreamy or a memory oh a memory a lady is that Wicked is good oh for a second I thought that was Kirsten Stewart it’s not I thought it was um the one from get out two and Megan or Kate Mar she looks like a

bunch of people Tunes what do they put in your jeans man give you some kind of griever repellent Juju my volunteers tribute why would Aldi go in the Maze I’ll be went to retrace Ben’s footsteps before Sundown so he’s gonna go back to where Ben was just starting he knows what he’s doing he knows better than any of us until he doesn’t come back tonight every month the Box sends up a new arrival someone had to be first right it’s Alby first that was Alby oh it begins with a yeah this is the future the

feminists want all the men in one compound can’t leave monsters outside they should be back by now what happens if they don’t make it they’re gonna make it this is what they do it’s part of the show right at the last minute or they won’t and you guys will be worried all night are they dead or not can’t we send someone after them that’s against the rules can’t risk losing anyone else I mean you’re kind of risking losing all of you by standing at the mouth but yeah I’m around at the last second here we

go somebody’s injured oh no okay hurry oh God this is a close call uh leave him go in Dylan O’Brien you have to leave him so he’s gonna help it’s all up to you that greeny’s gonna do it yeah how are you gonna oh it closed oh dang oh snap oh my goodness what are they gonna do what happened to us it looked like okay he’s a Graver now get him up this is already changing just leave them here the old rules don’t apply green bean I mean he’s dead so take his vest pack and

get going there’s not a single place we can take him take a look around there’s nowhere to go well I feel like there’s a lot of hallways in a maze around you you just try something cover him up with the vines or what are we thinking or climb wow okay still think it was a really bad choice not taking his vest off him and using his weapons yeah a little bit but if he wakes up he’ll need to defend himself whilst mortally wounded what are you doing what the all right buddy leave him in a

Lurch yeah he knows the maze yeah he’s got time for this green bean oh is he just gonna like all right camouflage up in there oh what is this thing is it What organic or mechanical yeah it looks metal to me heavy metal I mean the soundscape alone in here is quite jarring yeah very freaked out in here spooky is it like a spider looks like a robo spider oh gross that looks like a Harry Potter spider yeah no I swooping camera movements oh Wowie oh my God online boy oh whoa whoa nice jump oh

how does this work s faith did the same people like engineer these creatures oh nice you could be the first two to make it back here that trust your instincts oh yeah what if he like I was thinking that like what if he just stays in there and then crushes the spider but he gets out right on time yeah yeah smart that’s what oh god yeah yeah yeah oh oh oh oh oh good good good good come on buddy you got this no way yeah this is just like yesterday you saw a griever you can

just see it killed it oh man oh greeny King green beans yeah for three years we have coexisted with these things and now you’ve killed one of them you call it coexisting he has to be punished what you don’t even know if you’re gonna get backlash for the spider dying yet buddy when I turned tail and ran this dumb shank stood behind to help Alby look I don’t know if he’s Brave or stupid yes both whatever it is we need more of it I say we make him a runner yeah now we’re talking the subtle

version of one of my favorite tropes we need more around like that around here you’re hired but if there was one thing that I know about the maze it is that you do not it’s moving at a different time right everything’s changing man okay it’s coming back up it should have been uh oh just Jump Right In what oh oh no oh God no this is not good is that his mom or something that’s the girl who was in the thing with him in his memory oh okay last Greenie the last one ever to oh

yeah she knows who he is my name is also Thomas You’re Gonna Go on dissect that thing all by yourself I will if I have to the other one who’s left yet the other Runners quit this morning also ask about where’s your vest yeah I’m supposed to get a vest I think it’s time we find out what we’re really up against you’re not going back out there out there looking me in the woods in half an hour all right man and bring my vest yeah this be enough okay all right you got a squad now

stepping up awesome what oh okay oh something in there you mean besides a group of pancake I take the computer out a camera that red blinky light is it still recording all right ready on three one two three oh that thing’s coming okay what the hell is that wckd same as on the crate in the elevator oh this is the same that as we get in our supplies who knows where this might lead us you see what he’s trying to do right we should punish him oh my God Mike’s freaking guy put this guy in

the pit the rules are the only thing that have ever held us together why now are we questioning that and kept you in this big box too starting from tomorrow you’re a runner I mean it seems like the logical conclusion he’s the first one to kill a Graver and he came back with Clues like why are you so mad bro yeah like just go cook dinner and chill it’s unprecedented circumstances man come on yeah like at least a little flexibility from you yeah Beckham eighth of the way not at all we must be punished please

tell me there’s like an initiation ayahuasca ceremony oh my gosh I think you’re right what is this thing oh that’s what they’ve carved all the sequences of the maze then maybe the the letters and the numbers is the sequence of the Maze and how to get out I think maybe or not I don’t know no you’re right what do you mean all of it I thought you were still mapping it there’s nothing left to map hmm oh why haven’t you told anyone this it was obvious call people needed to believe we had a chance of

getting out but maybe now we do we have a real chance printing on the walls sections one through eight when the maze changes it opens up a new section the pattern always stays the same okay and that one’s from Seven that’s so special about seven last night when you killed that griever section seven was open tomorrow you and I are going to take a closer look yeah with Seth Meyers those are awesome girls are awesome it’s true one more of those things I don’t think she likes us very much hey look we just want to

talk we got a hell of rocks up there yeah like where’d she get all those racks okay I’m gonna come up okay hmm just me he’s gonna explode yeah stay back buddy is there nothing this green bean can’t do where am I this is all normal yeah we’ve all been through this your name that’ll come back to you in a couple of days it’s like this the one thing that’s true oh yeah just like she remembered you she got it quick girls mature faster are you sure you don’t remember anything else I remember water feeling

like I was drowning these faces staring at me do you remember that too Thomas woman’s voice saying the same thing over and over Wicked is Good Wicked is good she’s from Boston she’s just trying to explain the slang Wicked is good you were there there we go these were in my pocket when I came up a T Virus Wicked is good maybe it’s an antidote for a reason for when you get stung we don’t even know what this stuff is we don’t know who sent it why it came up here with you I mean for

all we know that this thing could kill it well I mean look at him how could this possibly make it any worse don’t accidentally prick yourself oh my God you better stab him quick oh my God hurry up Jesus goodness gracious oh what do you got there oh that came out pretty damn big oh that’s what he’s been carving the whole time it’s for my parents you remember your parents must have them it could be a test tube baby why would you give this to me grandma my best friend maybe if you find a way

out you can give it some for me this kid’s a good actor I want to Chuck a lot me too I want you to give that to them yourself when we get out of here we’re gonna get out of here all of us I promise oh buddy big day Greenie sure you don’t want to sit this one out get me in here no he got a vest where did the vest come from how was it not a big event how did we not have a vest event there’s a whole deleted scene where they build the

vest they pour some kind of molten leather into a you know a big old mold I am upset that would have been maybe one of the best scenes I know it’s okay maybe it’ll be a flashback in part two or section four all right this is looking cool I mean no numbers we need to get to seven all right Z One strange seven is not supposed to be open for another week someone’s updated the algorithm what oh it’s like activating Geiger counters I think it’s your honest away like it’s way back home to charge it

must return to the charging dock okay hey WC whatever it was up there the loading hanger or something it said it’s just another day about that oh my God is the hanger gonna move now whoa cool so do you have to kill all the Grievers and collect all eight dang uh okay who’s going in the hole Quavers what the oh it’s scanning he’s gonna be like no but maybe because they have that thing give me the whip I’ll throw you the item okay oh okay seven is now closing oh nice job oh whoa right yes

good okay oh wait this is like breaking up concrete which like this this doesn’t happen all the time no they’re gonna have to completely redraw their map now whoa oh my God no this is terrible oh no thank you okay are we done yet who are they expound yeah come on man what’s going on I still doors they aren’t closing oh now they want y’all to go out there they’re trying to shake stuff up oh or that means all the Grievers can get in now if they come out at night it’s grief would come out

at night uh grief is coming out at night oh oh snap okay new entrance multiple all right now y’all are sitting ducks if they can come from every sector you gotta fight them off what oh my God y’all better hurry come on now Teresa can stop them oh man oh everybody oh yeah select yourself in the old cage oh my goodness I would start lighting stuff on fire and see if that works burn the place to the ground yeah whoa holy to Molly oh my God you gotta throw a fire stick in its mouth yes

yes yes molotovic that’s right Theresa you got great ideas me and you girl girls get it done that’s what I’m talking about like some stuff on fire behind me oh my gosh it’s like also a scorpion yeah oh good job they stuck it with stuff oh I mean it was bound to happen oh no Chuck not Chuck Anyone But Chuck you better get him back somebody stab that piece of metal with something else yeah come on y’all yeah yeah get it Abby what’s he gonna do yeah pull that cord come on bro yes go out

yes yes kill that hunk of metal yeah yeah feel the rate oh my goodness Galley oh my God this freaking guy yep he’s one of them one of them and they set him here what happened before you got here maybe he’s right Thomas stab yourself with it I need to remember Teresa what are you gonna do to remember that’s got to bring up some weird feelings put it we don’t know are they all actually there or is it a simulation the Patricia Arquette did he program this whole thing God he’s taking control he said we

had a choice either join him or banish the Sundown with you excellent It’s not a prison it’s a test it all started when we were kids they’d give us these challenges they were experimenting on us no the people who put you here I worked with them the entire time you’ve been here I was on the other side of it that is so Grim why would they send us up if we were with them is the people we were before the maze they don’t even exist anymore these creators took care of that and you must have

done something to make them put you in here you went into the Maze and you found a way out if I hang Albi would still be alive sacrificed happens man but I know that if he were here he would be telling you the exact same thing pick your ass up and finish what you started oh I’ll be here in spirit what if Thomas is right maybe he can lead us home we are home I’d love it here you really think Vanishing us is going to solve anything this isn’t a banishing it’s an offering what are

you oh my God look at our Glade this is the only way and when the Grievers get what they came here for oh we killed Galley now looking like Samwise gamji over there do you hear me I said time off I mean all right guys step up yeah there we go good good good good good yeah nut kick get him sorry buddy you don’t have to come with us but we are leaving anyone else who wants to come that’s your last chance just trying to scare you no I’m not trying to scare you you’re already

scared all right I’m scared you have to be crazy not to be scared come with us good luck against the gravers all right you made your choice you take this Chuck stay behind us we get out now but we die trying get rich or die trying all right good for Green Bay oh it’s all spooky how do you fight it yes nice job guys oh my God somebody stab it in the eye stab it in the mouth yeah get its mouth come out no no no no no under bits no Chuck oh my god get

the Grievers didn’t get inside right what if it was Thomas Theresa killed them all maybe I gotta imagine Thomas was like this is wrong we shouldn’t do this and then they put it in or something my name is Dr Ava page I’m director of operations of the world catastrophe Killzone Department what if you’re watching this that means you’ve successfully completed the maze trials I wish I could be there in person to congratulate you oh my it was all done for a reason but the sun has scorched our world whoa millions of lives lost to fire

famine suffering by global scale while warming this movie’s woke what came after it was worse we called it the flare oh no a deadly virus that attacks the brain it is violent unpredictable oh yeah in time a new generation emerged that could survive the virus suddenly there was a reason to hope for a cure oh they’re all those the young would have to be tested all in an effort to understand huh you realize it but you’re very important you’re all the special unfortunately your trials have only just begun as you’ll no doubt soon discover not

everyone agrees with her methods the it may be too late for us oh God remember she’s getting a shot right on camera oh that was 45 minutes ago supposed to do now get out go outside oh God they gotta walking in the scorched Earth okay no no there he goes there he is Kelly don’t you can’t leave oh there’s no escape from this place has he been out there has he seen the world as it is I belong to the maze what’s Chuck thinking we all do oh no damn oh that was a good faker

oh damn it no yeah you’re gonna kiss them yourself remember I told you that you’re gonna die an old woman warm in your bed I mean where did Chuck go I’ve never seen him before he’s good oh who are these people coming in legit bad about that whoa okay into the sand on the outside of the building I feel like it said Wicked did it don’t worry safe now what is going on was that their their acronym wckd yes Wicked are they saying that their organization is good oh yeah yeah okay oh my God I’d

say Wicked shelter oh my God I think it’s safe to say the maze trials were a complete success Thomas continues to surprise and impress love that guy so let’s move forward it’s time now to begin phase two what is that what does that mean what is the sequel called what Grim world were all those scientists faking dead because that means they had to fake dead for a long time now to rig each other up with squibs firing guns what in the tomorrow their own lab exactly yeah break everything up okay well this has just left

me with a lot of questions more questions what do you mean yeah it’s all wrapped up here Tara it’s not James Dashner only wrote One novel I assume I know that’s not true I’m gonna say I did not read this book okay I had no idea what was going on I thought at first maybe I did I did not um this was intense I really liked it yeah Galley was a real pain in the ass uh which yeah I get it he was our like he was playing playing the role but um yeah I still

have a lot of questions that um went unanswered but I do think it’s cool at the end that you’re like oh see I was like I was this so they are kind of like clones but not clones they’re experiments and they’re the only ones who can survive the virus I guess he messed up he messed up okay give us give us the juice John what’d you think I enjoyed it overall I mean yeah it’s definitely one of those movies that clearly is setting up for much more uh lower and many more twists and turns to

come so like yeah it’s you know it ends fully on a note of like oh we’ve just scraped the iceberg um but yeah for the immediacy of what it was I was always intrigued and I was always kind of gripped by it I mean like you know you have this very compelling Central mystery of like what’s in the freaking maze you know like what’s what’s going on out there what does this all mean and so I think a movie like this in certain ways uh benefits greatly off that sense of mystery and certainly by the

end they do give you more mystery to look forward to um but yeah I mean it’s one of those things where sort of like once you’re out you’re like okay yeah so the monsters were out there and then we just kind of had to find the right uh you know sequence of mcguffins and things and yeah and then we’re able to break it like it’s it’s more linear and straightforward than it presents itself to be which is yeah like it was going to be like a bait and switch like you thought it was gonna have

like more of a like tricky reveal I thought it was gonna blow my mind or something yeah and like it’s cool like it’s I’m not like griping at it for not having like some like amazing on expected twists right um but yeah I mean like knowing again the lane that this originates from and knowing that a lot of those stories tend to be some kind of dystopian apocalyptic Society maybe there’s an ecological angle like you know I mean all that stuff is kind of fun and interesting as a reveal like oh the Earth has been

scorched and we gotta you know like it’s it begs a lot of questions in terms of like okay so this is like a shelter thing but they’re running this game and it seems like part of the game is Carnage and so like yeah it leaves you with questions certainly which again is most likely by Design it’s one of those things where I find myself wondering how the sequels will play out and if they will deliver on getting more interesting versus versus like you know kind of laying groundwork right now or will it plummet like will

it fall into being like okay like here’s a dystopian sci-fi thing of like a bunch of young people leading a resistance that I’ve you know kind of seen a lot of times before yeah that we’ve seen before yes like having the Maze and having you know the isolation of like we’re in the Glade and like you know we can stay here everything’s fine or we can go out into this crazy unknown Turf and uh and so without that you know I’m sure they’ll come up with something else I’m sure that they’re there’s a reason why

it’s a popular series yeah but yeah it kind of you know runs its course for the maze itself and uh I don’t know like like Part of Me Maybe wish that we could have seen some of the real like unknowns of the maze yeah like I kind of thought right with the number that was on the thing that or mixed with like the maze numbers which yes that came in at the end which we assumed but I kind of thought like maybe it would be like a reveal like oh the way for us to get

out the secret is like us is like uh us like the people that they would have had I don’t know especially with Thomas and Therese like remembering they’re the ones who remembered stuff they came up at the end I get that they were working on it smart like we kept doing here but um I don’t know I felt like there there would be but I know the book’s already written but there would be like a reveal that like I don’t know that the secret was like in them and they had to like figure figure more

out I don’t know I I I did like I love the relationship between um him and Chuck and I like that a lot uh I I didn’t get as sad as I think I maybe would have because it’s probably not enough time to really build up his relationship with Chuck but in the book I bet you there is right I would have cried when Chuck died if I was reading the book but for some reason it didn’t it hit me trust me it did I just didn’t like it didn’t hit me super hard like maybe

it could have if there was a little more of a build up but um you got to get to the action so I get it oh yeah and it’s one of those like very end sort of like Bleak World Stingers of like oh and I thought that maybe there was going to be some kind of Greater reveal with Gally maybe that he was like the plant all along yeah making sure they don’t try they don’t leave or maybe he knows what’s outside and he hasn’t let on why like he is so attached to being in

the Glade but yeah but yeah it mostly at least here in this execution reads like ah we just need one more like you know heart crushing sting of some sort to just remind you that uh you know certain things are just too good for this harsh world and Chuck is one of them yeah I would have liked it if at the end if he had remembered what was out there and how life was shitty and he’s like confessing that like it was really hard for him out there and it sucked and this is who I

wants to be here and this is like this is me reimagining the movie and he’s crying and he’s like this is the only family I found is here in this box you know and then they’re like oh man poor Galley he’s just a jerk because he had a hard life I don’t know something like that yeah it like and I’m sure I don’t know I don’t think we’ll get any more sort of expounding on that and like again it’s it’s not a a major complaint of mine because again part of the charm of a movie

like this is that you’re just thrust into a situation you don’t know much about anybody but yeah like for as much as that what like without that becoming a moment of Greater personal significance it does feel sort of like one final gotcha because you know I mean true I don’t know I thought there could have been some kind of Arc or some kind of thing with him where you know it’s like oh I was wrong or I followed you guys out please you know like accept me or something or please let me come along true

like wait up for me yeah I don’t know like that I thought that that yeah that that ending beat could have been more rich in character stuff that would have made it more feel a little less like a puppy killing yeah you know that’s true to make sure that you know Thomas becomes that much more hardened next time yeah and you know I mean like Teresa certainly interesting presence not much of a character that’s like another thing that I’m like what the heck like she was just like there and she came with a note and

then we didn’t really give her any more juice than that yeah and it’s again I know the the counter will probably be like well in the sequel she’s going to be a lot more important yeah but yeah for the execution here if I only saw this movie I would be like I kind of want to get to know her a little bit better yeah um or you know establish some kind of connection you know because they have the whole thing about like we know each other we used to work right across from each other but

it’s it’s only kind of a just one of many details touched upon that’s touched upon and left in the like very quickly yeah and it’s like all the maze stuff is is cool the effects are neat like the idea is really cool and I think you know you can’t make this like a two and a half hour movie necessarily but you know it’s once you’re on the other side of it I think it’s that it’s like since they already have the whole place mapped out I get the utility of that plot choice but at the

same time I’m like we could like learn about I don’t know because like we are we’re doing it through Dylan O’Brien’s perspective but at the same time I don’t know it’s it’s pretty straight I guess that’s what I keep coming back to is like for as much as this seems like straightforward linear puzzle yeah it’s pretty straightforward and I think too it’s like once he goes into the Maze and figures it out you know what to kind of look for and and you know kills the Reaver uh griever and all that stuff you know that

pretty much sets you directly on the path whereas me I’m sitting here going well there are like eight quadrants they all must be different or are they all or or you know is it just like any one of these could have been the exit you know why is it that they found the ones like they found number seven first and number seven is the exit it’s what they thought about I thought they were gonna do something like that where it’s like oh it’s just the next level of the game but it’s not the it’s not

the exit and spiritually that’s true because at the end Patricia Clarkson’s like you know I wish I could tell you this is Dan but this is just the beginning um but you know like we’re out into the world now so like I don’t know the the unless they’re gonna prison break this and find a way to maneuver them into a new Maze and this is just a future that deals with its problems be amazed it’s just a scorched Earth with multiple mazes on it and they just throw children in there you’re like good luck yeah

and I thought you know the the idea of the whole like Wicked is good thing you know was an interesting Mantra to kind of get you thinking about human nature and then by the end you’re like oh it must be that you know this organization or the good guys maybe and we shouldn’t trust the people who are in rescuing the kids right now right um but I don’t know this idea of like I thought that’s what it said on the outside was like Wicked uh shelter shelter or something like that and and guys wicked as

their acronym was the world they’re funny like earmarks to be that do very much again hearken to you know the fun of a why a novel adaptation because yeah it’s all about it is good we got the cool terminology all of our different lore that we’re gonna set up for you in a you know yeah and uh you know it for an immediate I think I enjoyed the immediate experience of this quite a bit and I enjoyed the movie in hindsight once it was concluded look at that was pretty good it was yeah it was

fun and it was you know intriguing but um it’s gonna you know like the sequel or whatever is gonna have to like really kind of set itself apart from various other like the world has been destroyed and working and now we have to go yeah you know yeah like it it’s that I think is like the the early parts of the movie have you going like this is really fascinating and I’m not even thinking about other stories like this and then when you get to the end I’m like now I’m thinking of a lot of

other stories yeah yeah yeah it’s true I feel like the writer was like he was thinking about a phrase that people would use after they read his book and it’s everybody who has the book and they’re like yeah you know that that’s what they’re doing and like yeah I’m like oh that’s probably their inside thing like I’m surprised in 2014 I didn’t see like teenagers walking around with t-shirts to say Wicked it’s good but then I might have been like you mean the musical or you know it might have been confusing yeah or just you

know Boston slang again anyway I give it it means good it means good and I’ll give it I’ll give it us a seven out of ten what do you give it John lay down 6.5 maybe because yeah we’re probably in the same spot I was gonna I was gonna go out of five and say like you know three three and a half like it’s pretty good yeah pretty good like I thought it was well assembled I thought it was really I agree yeah like I thought the performers all did a really nice job I thought

the way they you know established the world of their Camp was really nice um I I liked a lot of the details of how they were living and how they shot a lot of this the intensity and just the way they cap captured a lot of the effects and a lot of the action sequences felt appropriately yeah thrilling and harrowing and intense and whatnot and again in you know when you’re still deep in the mystery I was really intrigued by that stuff so I think like you know behind the camera there was a lot of

good work going yeah that’s true um and then yeah you know as a as an actual story you know this is all right pretty good yeah I think it’s like I always think in my head I go to story but then I was like oh man but those scenes with the spiders like John’s remember like remembering it more than me but now I’m like I’m in it and I’m like those were pretty dope those are awesome and I’m like what are those things like yeah did you guys make these for these trials or this is

this part of the immunity thing like you know did you like capture a few mod them out and then you know because this seems like it was all because of of you know global warming weather catastrophes yeah so what accounts for these creatures are they purely yours is there something else that work there again I’m sure we’ll find out in his sequel but we want to know now but yeah there are ways in which this could have felt like a more well-rounded Movie experience on its own yeah like a more well-rounded story yeah yeah all

right well we did it we watched it we liked it we’ll probably next one and letting us know if we should watch the next one I would also be happy to watch the next one I mean we should just we should just do it and then be like well we’ll we’ll all watch it together we’ll all decide but you guys should also be like you should watch the next one but don’t do any spoilers in case we are going to yeah yeah and what else do I say in closing John I want to see react

to other things I just told you about um I think we’re good I think you want to shout out a patreon really quick before we get out of here let’s do that thing let’s do it Anisa I’ll leave uh there’s only one girl in the movie but now you’re the second well Tara’s here too but yeah you girls involved with the Maze Runner experience today and if we were caught in the Maze I would absolutely want you on our team because you are a caring person but you’re also a person who knows your way around

you know like health and Medicine type things oh and also you’re just the kind of person who is tenacious you know if we had to figure the maze out I feel like you would keep us on track that would be good feeling good morale High yeah and she’d also be able to heal wounds or something yeah yeah that’s good and if we found out later that you were secretly involved with you know like experimenting on stuff like I would I would be willing to give you the benefit of the doubt I would just kill you

I mean also valid I’m gonna have to protect you from Tara and that’s also what this shout out is for is just to let you know you know that uh you should watch your back too it’s like man you were in there you were doing experience with these spiders in the Maze I’m like I’m not I know nope that’s some BS like you gotta go you know so whatever I guess when we we’re pushing you out into the maze now but keep your Pledge on file because that’s what really this is all definitely keep it

and if we ever meet in person he’s your buddy and I guess maybe I’m not but if you’re watching if we watch another movie though and like we do another shout out ways from now like it might be a different story with you Anisa you know then we could be friends again so you got to keep your patronage so like we can see where our relationship goes friendship wise you know I like that idea yeah that’s a good idea right maybe you’ll come out of the other side as friends yeah you never know kill me

oh the other side of the rainbow boom appreciate you we’ll see you there I love you Nisa love you bye peace
