Dangers Of Surveillance In The Maze Runner

This is one of the reasons the government can be very dangerous, because you never know what could happen to you without speaking out against it. This relates to 1984 because even if you thought against the government, you would be taken to get fixed and then killed in the building of love. Another one of the details in the book that is a lot like the society that we live in is the surveillance we experience. Especially in China, the government controls their phones, monitors screen time, and can look through your information. Honestly, anybody with a phone is at risk of being monitored because the government has access to everything you have that is online.

The Maze Runner - Novel vs. Movie Almost always when a book is turned into a movie, there are some significant differences between them. Some are just poorly produced with a poor depiction of the writers idea, or others make it as exciting as the book, but fail to include major points from the book. The Maze Runner, by James Dashner, gets people excited for both the movie and book but there are still some major differences between the two. There are some parts entirely missing, and there are others that are simply just wrong.

Maze Runner is about people (specifically males) being put into a maze not knowing how they got there, trapped until they find a way out, in the maze there are these spider looking robots called “Grievers” that try to kill them while they are in the maze. The maze has doors that move around in it, so it changes up every night, and the runners only have certain times they can go in because there’s doors to enter the maze and it has certain times it open and closes. There’s different kinds of jobs they have to do while “living” there: like gardening, running, and building. Gardening, to provide food and keep plants alive, running, to find a way out the maze, they map the maze and figure out different ways to get out, and building, for shelter. The whole purpose of these males being put in there is to be tested.

Control through fear is specifically demonstrated through Orwell’s creation of the Thought Police, Room 101, and by using the Big Brother is Watching You effect (The Warning Signs). His warning to all of us is clear: If we allow fear to cloud our thinking, the government can take control of us. The idea of Big Brother Always Watching You causes an effect of paranoia and fear. Let us explore this concept through an experiment. A group of students were placed in a controlled environment and informed that everything they said and did was being monitored.

The Maze Runner is set in modern time in a place called the Glade. All of these boys, ages twelve to seventeen, are stuck in a place called the Glade.

Grievers are very dangerous creatures that can kill someone in an instant.

The teenagers’ reality is living in an experiment and fighting for their lives by the result of a disease. In the world today, there are are a plethora of diseases, but even with advanced medical technology, a lot remain incurable. The Maze Runner presents a possible outcome of a terribly contagious disease. James Dashner uses social commentary to explain the negative aspects of a world which the government is almost in complete control.
