I haven't seen the movie yet but I like spoiling myself for things so I read your review :)
Glad to know the casting works well enough. I am excited about seeing what Maggie and Kate bring to those roles.
-Remember how in the books, one of Tris's fears was of sexual intimacy which made sense given her age and that she was raised in abnegation and had her first boyfriend while everything around her was fucked and I MEAN who doesn't have that fear, really? And then afterwards they actually talked about it and Tris had agency and stuff? AND THEN IN THE MOVIE IT BECOMES SEXUAL ASSAULT/RAPE? whyyyyyyyy.
Still have yet to see VM, but lol I felt Divergent was very long--my friend and I both checked out watches at the end and were like, "Didn't this movie start at 7:30?! Why is it 10 pm?" Though even so they managed to oversimplify so many things...I think my favorite was when she sees Jeanine go in and Peter is like, "THEY ARE HUNTING DIVERGENTS"--lol, why have any mystery about it? Let's just come out and say it...also lol at those tattoos that apparently are just a stamp with no skill on the part of the tattooist. In terms of the fear landscapes, the thing that I missed was how you could also just slow your heart rate down/calm yourself and get over your fear to make it stop as well
