History Awesome / ThePagemaster

** FridgeBrilliance: the fact that the dragon wasn't killed could count as a [[RuleOfSymbolism symbol]] of Richard's general fear (mainly of risk and heights). He'll never truly be rid of his fears, but he ''overcame'' them.
* Creator/LeonardNimoy as Jekyll and Hyde was pretty epic.
* All the ''Franchise/StarTrek'' cast did an awesome job.
* Fridge Awesome: Initially in the story, Horror was the book Richard was the most reluctant to befriend out of the three, representing his [[RuleOfSymbolism fear]]. As the story progressed, he comes to see Horror more and more like the friend [[NoOneGetsLeftBehind he's not leaving behind]], which indicates his growing courage. After returning to the real world, he asks the librarian to check out the three books. When the librarian says he can only take 2 and removes horror, this can be seen as the Pagemaster testing Richard. Because faced with this dilemma, Richard insists he promised to check out Horror, signifying he's come to bravely embrace even the scariest aspects of his imagination. Talk about CharacterDevelopment!
