First of all, props for trying to enlighten the TMR masses! Too many viewers of TMR have only a superficial understanding of the trilogy, and that's okay, but there's so much more to TMR than a simple action-adventure story. If that's all you're taking away from it, you're only realising a fraction of the potential enjoyment. The main theme of the trilogy asks: Is it "right" to sacrifice the few to save the many? Mutatis mutandis, do the ends justify the means? Either formulation amounts to the same thing and undergirds WCKD's actions vis-a-vis the immunes and non-immunes. "The ends justify the means" is a principle often associated with totalitarianism, and the phrase has its origin with Machiavelli, although the idea is much older. The principle is part and parcel of consequentialism, a teleological theory that says whether an action is morally good or bad depends on its outcomes. The more good outcomes outnumber the bad, the better/more moral the action. Under this rubric if WCKD finds a cure, then WCKD is very good, indeed. It's clearly rooted in Utilitarianism. Teresa/WCKD adhere to this end-means principle rigidly. This principle is, unfortunately, a too common belief today. It allows people to believe their actions are justified regardless of how they go about achieving their desired end result, opening the door to all sorts of aberrant behaviors. Since they are dealing with an end of very great significance, Teresa/WCKD feel anything goes when it comes to "how" the end is achieved. Teresa/WCKD are totally ruthless in their pursuit of a cure. Thomas, on the other hand, believes that the means are just as important, or, maybe, even more important than the end. His viewpoint is if the means are morally objectionable in themselves, then this outweighs any potential benefit from the end. In other words, the "how" is just as important as the "why" in his calculus. Thomas, just like WCKD, wants to find a cure to the Flare, he's only opposed to how WCKD does it. Thomas is more than willing to sacrifice himself to obtain a cure and save humanity. He's not willing, however, to sacrifice the unwilling. Theresa's/WCKD's morality is relativistic and man-centric, whereas Thomas' morality is based on absolute principles and God-centric. Even so, the trilogy challenges both WCKD's and Thomas' perspective, and makes us wonder which interpretation is "right." I'm reminded of Pilate when he said: "What is truth?" We have man's truth, and we have God's Truth. This is the crux of the conflict between Teresa/WCKD and Thomas over how best to find a cure. There are many parallels between Teresa and Thomas. They both were highly placed in WCKD. Both were the most intelligent and ableist of WCKD's immunes. Both medical doctors/scientists. Both were betrayers and, ultimately, both were tragic heroes. Teresa's epiphany came when Jansen detailed his selfish plans for Thomas. Thomas wouldn't be cure for all but for the select few. This was contrary to Teresa and WCKD's objective. At that point, Teresa turned on Jansen and intended to free Thomas. Teresa's raison d'etre had always been both to find a cure and to make it available to everyone. She does belatedly admit the cure belongs to Thomas, but we know Thomas wants to make it available to all. Because Thomas is the cure, Teresa works to save Thomas, which is consistent with her long-standing objective, even if it means her death, and that's what happens. Like Thomas, Teresa is a tragic hero. Teresa was wedded to WCKD. Ultimately, her fate mirrored WCKD's fate. A considerable amount of time passes, and Thomas has just recovered from his, frankly, very life-threatening wound. Amazingly, the bad guy actually had hit his target! Thomas is going to leave Safe Haven, find whatever site to which WCKD evacuated and present himself as the cure. Newt says in his letter "[t]he future is in your hands now, Tommy, and I know you'll find a way to do what's right. You always have." Thomas looks at the vial, and then at the ship. It's clear what he's thinking and what he's going to do. This ending is consistent with the notion of the "monomyth." It's also another parallel. It parallels Thomas leaving the Glade to rescue Alby and Minho. It seems incredible but heroic stories often follow the same basic pattern. In his book "The Hero with a Thousand Faces," Joseph Campbell, distilled the world's myths into a common structure which he called the monomyth or hero's journey. It's very concisely summarized as follows: A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man. That's the "Maze Runner" film saga in a nutshell with Thomas and his blood as the "boon." In addition to the main theme, there are various subthemes in TMR. These include growing-up, chaos v. order, memory and identity, friendship/love of others, selfishness v. selflessness, loyalty v. disloyalty, self-sacrifice v. self-preservation, man v. nature, how different people react to the unknown, mazes as an allegory for life's many twists and turns, curiosity v. apathy, groupthink v. individual initiative etc. TMR saga is very surprising deep and very adult.

Wednesday Adams.should team up with Sacred Riana.

Well explained 👏 🎉

Jericho is not Palestinian. It was born in the Old Testament and is Jewish in origin. Palestine, as a country does not and never has existed.

Correction! Some parts are shot in Ireland

Jaws is a movie, Schindler's List is a film.

This whole debate is pretty silly, as “film” is really just something shot on celluloid film. Modern “art” movies aren’t “films” because they were shot digitally.

To me, movie is an American term for a more commercially intended product. Film is anything that has an intent to raise and deal with issues of characters in a story that has been created for viewing. I would use film as the more general term, with movie in use as regards, for example, many summer blockbusters. So Marvel or Star Wars would be movies, whereas more serious fare would be film. Sometimes films like Oppenheimer may be a crossover point.

I'd be interested to hear more about when and how people in the industry will prefer to use the word "movie"

Nice video. The way I always see it…Schindler’s List is a film, Jurassic Park is a movie

Still dont understand how humans created tesseract for Cooper. How humanity survived in the first place ?

It was a joke?

Wonderful video!

Now I want to watch the movie again🎉

Unbelievable masterpiece

My god this show went off the rails.

lannisters always pay their debts !

The perfect action movies ever made

i cant really tell if this is an early stage content farm or just a guy that wants to use an ai voice lol honestly not sure which, keep up the good work lol, not tryna say anything rude

Sophia Stewart is the real writer of the Matrix who was robbed by these two assholes who this channel falsely credits as the original writers of the Matrix.

Your description says "Ghost in the Armor". Do you mean Ghost in the Shell maybe?

i know that making Neo fly was important for some major moments in the movies, but it really takes away the uniqueness of the One

I dislike AI voice overs. It's just lazy and detracts from the quality, not to mention the clickbait title

Keanu Reeves is a very good actor❤

cool

Promo*SM

Дуже захоплююче і пізнавальне відео! Дякую автору за роботу! А кінцівка взагалі ізюминка😂❤

Very cool video! 🎬

In my opinion probably the best series ever. I didn't hate the last season as much as many did. To me this series is as much about the journey as the destination.

Winter is coming!

My childhood woudn’t be complete without the Madagascar trilogy

My favorite madagascar character is the zebra, because he is the funniest character

Unbelievable ❤ You have excellent diction!

Great video I also make videos myself and I hope that one day my videos are as good as yours!

Really a surprise movie. One of the best movie of 2021

I feel that the satire in the boys is super important

Rocket deserves his own spinoff movie. He and Groot were the two best characters in the film.

For me, At Worlds End will always be the best potc movie lol
