But In Divergent (the Book) I Wanted To Know More About The Protag's Faction - Tumblr Posts

Am i the only one who hates when sci-fiesq movies jump straight into action?

Let me set a scene so yall can understand what i mean:

In the year 21XX, everyone that turns 18 has to go trough some kind of ritual, everyone has done it, for thousands of years

And then we met the protagonist, and they have a friend who is doing the ritual before them in some way, wethere they are a year older or only one person can do it at a time. In the meantime, the protagonist meets the rebel, aka the one that either 1. knows the truth, or 2. joins the other rebels

A few minutes worth of movie goes by and before the protagonist is able to do the ritual, they are wisked away by the rebles (or joins them after realizing the ritual has changed their friend) and then the movie spends the rest of its run time with the rebels and telling and sometimes showing how the ritual does all kinds of bad stuff

I wanna someday see a movie where the protagonist actually does the ritual, is brainwashed by it (and the audience does to) before being forced to join or being kidnapped by the rebels and then we have the plot twist of why the ritual is bad. Like a sense of normalcy, and a little bit of boring stuff before the audience realizes "oh shi- there's still a whole hour to go"

btw Im very much not a movie critic, i guess its just the world building part of my brain that is always screaming to know more
