Trailer… Thursday? Paper Towns 2nd trailer!

The second trailer for John Green’s Paper Towns came out yesterday, and it looks pretty rad. Ben is wearing the “World’s Best Grandma” tshirt! I reckon the cast look spot on and we are in for a treat. Check out the new trailer below:

And just in case you missed it the first time around, here’s the first trailer as well:

John Green Fix

There’s been a bit of a John Green drought. We here are all waiting (and waiting) for him to publish something. Happily, in the mean time, there’s Paper Towns, the movie, which is now basically only 2 and a half months away (mid July). In the mean time, a clip of the Ninja eyebrow scene was recently released:

Very good.

Also, read the book between now and then! We’ve got lots of copies and I think we might get more.

Recently on Tumblr…

The first trailer for The Legend of Korra Book 4 is out! Check out the trailer below (if you’re up to date with Book 3):
