Posting Rules

1. Regarding Spoilers.

It’s okay to propose discussions containing spoilers. It’s not okay to leave it unmarked and spoil the story for first-time readers/watchers. Posts containing spoilers must have Reddit-standard “spoiler flair" and specific flair to which installment the spoiler refers. When commenting on a spoiler free post, make sure to mark the spoilers with spoiler tagging notation (> !spoilers here! < | without the spaces) Leaving spoilers unmarked repeatedly can lead to being banned from the subreddit. Keep the below points in mind regarding spoilers:

  • Flair your posts. After submitting a post which contains film spoilers, assign the flair "Movie Spoilers." A post containing book spoilers must be assigned the flair "Book Spoilers" and a post containing both movie & book spoilers must be assigned the flair "General Spoilers."

  • No spoilers in the titles of your posts. It will be removed.

  • For spoilers in your comments on old reddit, use this markup: [this spoiler happened](/spoiler) & it will appear as this spoiler happened.

2. No sharing of personal information.

If you engage in a conversation with another member and want to exchange any kind of personal information (this includes your username in other social media), which we recommend you do with caution, do so in the private chat or through messages.

3. Keep it TMR related and relevant.

The Maze Runner is a young adult series, therefore, not a place for any NSFW content.

This does not mean you can’t propose discussions on more mature topics as long as you keep it civil, appropriate and related and relevant to TMR Series. Here is also not a place for discussing nowadays politics. Breaking this rule and refusing to remove whatever post or comment when asked by the mods can and will lead to a banment for an undetermined time.

4. No spamming, low effort or unrelated posts/memes.

Don't spam and make sure that the post is Maze Runner related. Low effort posts include “just finished the series” type of posts with no further opinions and topics in the post as well as cringe Newt-simping posts. We know we all love Newt, but let’s try to keep the cringe out of the sub.

5. No hate speech.

No racism, sexism, LGBTQ-phobia, or any other kind of threats or speeches inciting any kind of violence against someone or some group will be tolerated, as well as making fun of said groups. Reddit's sitewide rules and Reddiquette must be followed everywhere inside this sub.

Redditors who break this rule will be banned forever on the first offense.

6. User Flairs.

User flairs are, of course, also under the rules listed above, so all editable user flairs must be used for it's appropriate purpose and in an appropriate manner.

Ideas for a new book name?

Just to be extra sure to avoid copyright issues, i've changed the font and title of the book. I set it to Mole Trials: The Catacombs since that's the first thing that popped into my head, but i need recommendations for other names unless that one is good.

It's about a group trapped in a deep underground labyrinth with creatures called Rippers. The group calls themselves Moles.

Thanks!

Which Glader falls off into the abyss at the end of the Maze Runner movie?

it's during the final griever fight when they are on the passageway trying to unlock the number code that is the order of the maze sections. if anyone knows or can find out, that would be great! google isn't giving me anything and chat gpt has resorted to making stuff up as it doesn't know as well lol.

Just found out my copy of "The Death Cure" has a major misprint lol

I'm reading through the book before class and when I got to page 202, the page that follows is page 187. It goes like that until page 202 again where it cuts to page 235 afterward. Great 👍

Teaser to an unofficial installation I'm writing, what do you think?

It's going to be about an underground labyrinth instead of an above ground maze. What are your guesses or ideas on what should or is going to happen?

Hi, I just finished the movies (haven't read the books) and I'm obsessed now but none of my friends have watched them and I think they are sick of me yapping about it so is anyone interested in a yap-fest about literally everything movie-related?

Obviously it will be a 2-way conversation so you can yap as well or more than me whatever. Please someone say yes, I need to talk about it before I implode. Oh yeah, one condition. I would greatly appreciate it if we refrained from talking about the ships and stuff because, honestly they are kinda annoying to me. Just to be clear, I'm perfectly okay if people enjoy it but it just doesn't interest me and I sorta find it stupid but each to there own I guess. I'm really sorry if that makes me seem like an asshole.

Anyways, anyone up for a yap fest? Again, all topics but shipping welcome

Edit: I don't have Discord and in my country (Australia) the government has approved a law that people under 16 can not use social media. Whilst it will officially come into place in a few months and I do not believe Discord is included I am under 16 and I very much doubt that my parents will be like "Yeah sure. You can absolutely get something that exists solely (I think anyways) to communicate to strangers and there is no chance of us freaking out about predators" So yeah, sorry about that

So is everyone from Group B dead or what?

Ever since I finished The Maze Cutter, I've been thinking if anyone from Group B is alive or at least recently died. We only know that most of the Gladers have died but FrypFrypan, and they're Group A. So I'm wondering if anyone from Group B is alive.

What songs do you think fit the maze runner characters?

I want to make a tiktok on what songs fit maze runner characters, but I don't really know what songs to put for the characters. The characters I wanna do are: Thomas, minho, newt, gally, frypan, teresa, Brenda, Jorge, janson, ava, chuck, alby, winston, and ben (I know it's a lot of characters) Edit: most people chose cigarette daydream for newt so that's what I went with for him

Y'all think it would be interesting if i tried writing a Maze Runner book on a labyrinth?

As in WICKED made a different type of maze that was underground with different creatures. Any thoughts or cool ideas?

appreciation for the series

i’ve been a fan of the maze runner ever since i was a kid and being an adult now still obsessed with it is crazy to me. both the books and the movies hold such a special place in my heart and it’s literally my roman empire (lol) i find that the fandom is scarce throughout social media but ive never ventured to the reddit before so i was wondering if anyone here has literally been obsessed with it their entire lives too 😅 also ur favorite book and movie!

i finished the books.

hi!! you might remember me by the pic of the book bouquet!! but this time something's different: i finished the series and now i feel like a whole different person😭 i wanted to share the post i did in my whatsapp channel if anyone's interested!!🫶🏼 The Maze Runner Series - James Dashner Books: The Maze Runner - book 1 in the trilogy The Scorch Trials - book 2 in the trilogy The Death Cure - book 3 in the trilogy The Kill Order - prequel The Fever Code - origins 5⭐️ (I would give it more, A LOT more) 3938934949303💧 (broke the scale) 1🌶️ This series has sent me on such a rollercoaster of emotions, it has been probably the best series I've ever read so far. It's about an apocalypse that started because of the sun flares hitting the earth too hard, burning and melting many people to death and leaving the world without more than half of its vegetation and resources. Next came a virus (I'm not going to explain how it was invented, that's a spoiler, but it wasn't natural) called The Flare that made you slowly or rapidly, depending on how you got your virus and its mutation, lose your sanity and it made you into something much less than a human, even lesser than an animal, driving you into madness, before it eats up the Killzone (the brain of the person infected) and it kills you. The trilogy tells the story of a young boy who's "apparently" named Thomas. He gets sent into this green and taken care of area, along with sixty more boys, surrounded by a big dark maze, with terrifying creatures in it. His memories are gone, he doesn't remember anything about his past life and neither do the other guys. Strange things start happening which make them understand that they have to escape fast after the three years of trying. When they escape, only half of them being able to make it, the go to The Scorch. I can't go in many detail, but it's very interesting to read about how The Cranks (the infected people) interact, about the corrupt governments and their ways in hiding secrets, about the only cities left untouched, etc. All this happens in the second and third books, and then it all ends. The fourth book talks about Mark and other people trying to survive, 13 years before Thomas being sent to the maze. The ogs know how much it made me cry and how much I thought about it. Devastating book. Related to the rest, I'm not gonna say why, but it didn't surprise me much, I expected it. The last book is the one that I just read. It explains the origins of many characters (including my poor, poor Newtie😭🫶🏼❤️‍🩹) and how the organization (I'm not gonna say the name) prepared the experiments and the way the could try to find a cure for this. Such a sad and heart breaking book for anyone who would want to finally understand how all of it happened and to have a good cry!!! Just wanna say this: the relationship between Thomas and all the characters was so beautiful and pure when they were just little kids, but with grown up mentalities. Finally, just to make sure everyone knows this: THE SERIES IS A MUST READ!!!

Should I read The Kill Order and The Fever Code?

I’m reading the series for the first time, and I’m almost done The Scorch Trials. I’m planning to go on to The Death Cure, but after that, should I read the two prequel books, The Kill Order and The Fever Code?

The gladers names

Ok so as we all know the gladers are named after scientists or like old people or whatever, like Newt: Isaacs Newton, Alby: Albert Einstein, Gally: Galiloe Galilei, Thomas: Thomas Edison etc. So what do you think Aris, Chuck, Zart, Clint, Jeff and Winston are named after?

I heard james dashner was going to kill someone else

I heard somewhere that james dashner wasnt going to kill newt. But since newt was the fan favourite he made him die. Has anyone else heard this? If so which character did he say he was going to kill?

The sun in TMR book

When everything started to change in the maze in TMR book, they woke up and found out the sun wasnt there or something like that .. so was the sun a fake one, or did the maze suddenly have a roof or something?
