3 to keep 2 to cut

-One of the most important scenes in the first book that absolutely would have to be kept is the scene where the starks discover the direwolfs. This scene obviously has a lot of plot importance but also includes a significant amount of foreshadowing.
 -Another scene that I love from the first book is the scene between tryion and John snow on their way to the wall. Tyrion has a pretty great quote in this scene because they are both outcasts that has to be kept in any film adaptation.
-Finally one part that i have a beef with in the second season (which i have already seen and read) is that they leave it 5 characters that stay behind in winterfell that help bran with his struggles significantly and that i feel absolutely should have been included in the show.

--Janos slynt from books one and two is probably a character with a side plot that isnt all that important.
--Now in the third book there are three men who have captured arya and are taking her back to their King but their part in her overall escape and story arent all that relevant and may just take up time unnecesarily.

“The Host Experience”

Emery Woodward

Fans of Stephanie Meyers “The Host” can pay to live the host experience for one week in the beautiful caves of Colossal Cave Mountain Park in Tucson, Arizona. With a down payment and a signed waiver these lucky fans will immerse themselves for one week living just like the characters from the book. They will have to live off of the land with the help of survival experts, and paid actors pretending to be Jeb, Kyle, Ian, Jared, Jamie, and other characters from the book and will even get to relive reenactments of scenes from the book so real they’ll forget they are on vacation and will begin to feel like they are actually living in an alien controlled earth! Go on a Raid with Jared, or help Wanderer become part of her new human family; Help Doc with one of his dissections or just explore the caves yourself, and in the end you get to help make one final decision that will change the course of humanity and decide whether or not you survive “The Host Experience”.                                                                            

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                              How it will work

I based this idea roughly off of camp joy but mostly from the book itself, because the only way to truly experience all of the raw emotions and intensity of this book is to be there for yourself; to fight the fight they are and invest yourself into this family of people until you truly want to do everything you can to help them and you survive the experience. When you go on a raid for supplies and have to hide from the aliens, the actors will make the experience and the tenseness of the whole scene feel so real it will be an experience like no other. While scenes from the book are being reenacted you will feel for the characters like you never have before and you will feel incredibly strong sense of emotions, a huge emphasis throughout the entire book, the power of emotions. “Happy and sad, elated and miserable, secure and afraid, loved and denied, patient and angry, peaceful and wild, complete and empty… all of it, I would feel everything. It would all be mine.” (Meyer 608) By the end of the whole experience you should feel so attached that, as Melanie says to Wanderer “I think you’ve found your home” (Meyer 113). And you will come to truly appreciate what a blessing we have in being human. The same idea that you take from the end of the book, you will get to feel at the end of the host experience “This place was truly the highest and lowest of all worlds—the most beautiful senses, the most exquisite emotions… the most malevolent desires, the darkest deeds” (meyer 141).

Why it will work

This will work for the same reason that camp joy does, because people truly want to experience these things for themselves, reading a book or seeing a movie is one thing, but there is no other experience like loving and fearing and running for your life with other people like you are in the book itself.  Not only will you get to experience the story like you never have but there is also an outdoor adventure aspect to it. For those who love to camp, hunt, spend time outdoors and even survive in this wilderness this will add a broad appeal to them while being 100% safe at the same time. It will be an incredible adventure that will appeal to fans of the books, fans of survival challenges and anyone who is looking for a great time.
