Okay! So! I was not thrilled with The Maze Runner as a trilogy, BUT (!) that does not mean that all is lost. As I mentioned in my review, The Maze Runner is the best of the three, and I think this is going to be one of those rare cases in which the movie is better than the book. A trailer hasn’t been released yet, but there are publicity stills floating around the interwebs. I have to say, the casting on this movie is FLAWLESS, at least in terms of how I personally imagined each character.
Take a look. I think you’ll find there’s a little something for the fangirl in everyone.

Gally, played by Will Poulter, who you know as Eustace Scrubb from The Chronicles of Narnia. (And he was hilarious in We’re the Millers.)

Minho, played by Ki Hong Lee. I don’t know him from anything yet, but he’s one of my favorites so I had to include him.

I must hurry up and read this book! It’s been on my to-read list for a minute.
The movie has been pushed back to September, so you still have a some time. 🙂
Alright!!! I’ll probably only read the first one though. Seems like the general consensus.
That is definitely your best bet. Books 2 and 3 were torture (at least for me).
Totally agree. I don’t think I slept the night I picked up “Maze Runner” because I just HAD to finish it, but the other two were underwhelming. The casting for this movie is pretty perfect except I always pictured Theresa as blonde.
