8/29/13: "If you ain't scared... you ain't human."

Hello Friends!
And in honor of Dylan O'Brien's birthday being this week, we will start this blogpost with a dancing Dylan O'Brien gif.

And we will also be talking about the soon to be release of The Maze Runner in theaters for those who have yet to hear.

So this is just going to be a Dylan O'Brien/Maze Runner centered Blogpost! (but who would complain about that). The Maze Runner is written by James Dashner.

So let's talk about the book:

Title: The Maze Runner
Author: James Dashner
Genre: Dystopian, Post-Apocalyptic
Goodreads
Books in Series: The Scorch Trials, The Death Cure, The Kill Order
Rating: 4/5

The characters in this novel will become close to your heart. Most of the characters are teenage boys, with a pool of diverse characteristics.
The plot really pushes through, although sometimes drags and sometimes confuses, it will really intrigue you and open your mind to a whole new idea of the world's end.

The Maze Runner Movie

So far, we don't know much. We do have a full cast and stills, but no trailers or anything else. Here is some casting:

Dylan O'Brien as Thomas

Dylan is mainly known for is role as the beloved Stiles Stilinski in Teen Wolf but has also done other small things like The Internship and High Road. May I suggest Teen Wolf as an excellent TV series. You might be hesitant at first, but it is definitely worth your time.
Also, if you are having a bad day, let me direct you to this thirty second video of fifteen year old Dylan.


Thomas Brodie-Sangster as Newt

Thomas is a behind-the-scenes kinda guy. You might not notice him here, but let me list off a few things he's participated in.
Ferb Fletcher in Phineas and Ferb
Jojen Reed in Game of Thrones
 and can we just mention that he was in the one episode of Doctor Who with David Tennant? 
Yeah this kid is awesome. 








Blake Cooper as Chuck

This kid has hardly stared in anything, but he looks like he could be the literal incarnation of the chubby, cute, and innocent character Chuck in The Maze Runner. 
So that is just a few of the cast members! James Dashner will also be writing the screenplay and our director is Wes Ball, who directed many a Star Trek shorts.

The movie will be shot in Louisiana, and is expected to be released February 14th, 2014.

Get excited guys, because this is an exceptional book and is going to be an exceptional movie.

If you want to read more about the movie you can check it out on ImDb!

If you want to pick up the book you can check it out on Goodreads!

Now I'll peace out to you guys for now. You might here more from me this weekend! Let me leave you with this wonderful video of Dylan O'Brien leading a dance party on the set!


Have a good Labor Day Weekend!
