Paper Towns by John Green


A few days ago, my friends and I went to go see Paper Towns. I have got the book, but haven’t finished it yet. And personally, I think that the book is much better (most of the time books are) that even Cara Delevingne’s eyebrows didn’t even make much of an impression on me.                               But, I know what did.

Ansel Elgort
.

He is one of the main characters from John Green’s The Fault In Our Stars and is portrayed as Augustus Waters along with co-star/onscreen lover Shailene Woodley as Hazel Grace Lancaster, but as her sister in the Divergent Series. 
In Paper Towns the main characters are:

Nat Wolff – Quentin

Cara Delevingne – Margo

But what I didn’t know was that Ansel Elgort was in the movie as well, and judging by the gasps and excessive amounts of Oh My God, most people didn’t know either. I guess Ansel made quite the impression in TFIOS, because everybody pretty much started screaming when he cam on screen (for two minutes) and returned to normal when Nat Wolff came on screen. Yeah- we’re biased.

I thought that it was only my cinema that I went to that did this, but I talked to my friend on skype (who lives in QLD) and we were talking about Paper Towns and she said that the exact same thing happened when Ansel came onscreen. What I couldn’t imagine though is the premier for Paper Towns and probably everyone in the audience screamed when Ansel Elgort came onto screen, but let me tell you; not everyone screamed when Nat Wolff came on screen in The Fault In Our Stars.


Overall, I thought that this movie was great and hilarious, but I haven’t actually finished the book, so the ending was a bit of a surprise for me. But, after reading TFIOS, I guess John Green isn’t too into happy endings.
