#wckd

because if you think about it: the hero, thomas, ultimately brought down wckd solely because of wanting to save minho - NOT because he wanted to save the world, but just his friend

whereas the villains, wckd and ava paige, WERE in fact working for the greater good, attempting to look for the cure to save humanity as a general and didn't care about a few people dying, as it wouldve been just collateral damage (had they been successful in developing the cure on a mass scale)

i lwk find that pretty neat

in the movies, it's explicitly stated that the Last City is, as its name suggests, the very last city on earth. it gets bombed to absolute HELL. everything is burning, everyone is dying, nothing survives.

but in the books, this happens to Denver and WICKED's compound. Denver gets overrun, yes, but there's several more cities/communities in canada! theres most likely more in other northern countries, because it's also stated that WICKED is formed from the remaining countries' governments, and if it was only USA and canada left, they wouldve said so, instead of leaving the number of remaining countries unsaid.

because there's more countries, there's most likely more WICKED compounds, more Mazes, more Trials.

World Central Kitchen - WCK

I've been rereading + rewatching the series for perhaps the millionth time and I still... can't get over how stupid this organisation is. 🙈
