I pirated went to see the film because everyone told me "blah blah it'll make you cry, it's so sad I was really invested in the characters blah blah" which automatically told me at least she would die. The fact that it was based off a book told me they would both die, as books are more free-spirited with their killing off of characters/having unfulfilling endings.
Watching the movie, I was not able to become attached to these people. Seeing Hazel just being either really stereotypical or really uncaring about stuff around her, mixed with the random jump-cuts from scene to scene without much explanation (seriously, they went from dinner to the house to a museum to ******* in amsterdam while COMPLETELY forgetting the mother, who would've obviously said that Hazel should not be running around the city or getting deflowered by a faggot she just met).
Augustus... man **** this guy. What kind of douche pulls out a cigarette in front of a girl with a lung problem, even if it's "part of a metaphor" like you actually do that and expect it to work? in the book it probably worked out better/was better explained, but in the movie he always comes off as someone who I couldn't wait to see die, and even then he had to be a total dick with his faux funeral crap.
I SERIOUSLY can NOT stress enough how much this movie does NOT make sense as a movie, and should've been left as a book, HOWEVER, the movie made good money and proved to producers/movie developers that if you have a big enough fan-base screaming for a movie from a book, even some hipster garbage, you'll make a profit, and in that there's hope for better books to get adaptations.

bothemastaofall (11/14/2014) [-] I don't need to read the book or see the film to know that both are **** and John Green sucks.
The only two things that can come from the movie from watching the trailer is "Everyone dies" and "Sex with the nearly dead rocks". Also lets make out in Anne Frank house for some reason.

blaisexautopsy (11/15/2014) [-] You can say that any filmmaker or director is pretentious, but if you haven't seen a movie how do you know if you don't like it, or is it just the thought and depth about the movie that turns you off? I wouldn't say I hate a movie just because I haven't seen it nor does it make it pretentious, I'm not sure how a film could actually even be pretentious. /end confusion rant
Watch Nuit #1, fantastic film, but you have to read and think for warning.

payseht (11/14/2014) [-] this was such a terrible movie... maybe it wasn't, but people were building this up to be an interesting character development movie, not as much depressing, but it will make you cry, and it's about triumphing over inevitable, close, and painful death, and just living instead of waiting to die... it was none of those things... and the kiss at the holocaust museum with the people around clapping... that particular scene cut the movie's general score in half for me... people said it wouldn't feel pretentious but, yeah, it so does... it felt like an indie film shown only at festivals...

dogziller (11/14/2014) [-] i liked the book. seems like the movie messed everything up. really i think theres too much of this bandwagon of making a book, comic, tv series, old carton or whatever the hell into a movie. make you own goddam ideas and don't leech off of jk rowling for the umpteenth time or whatever. /RANTEND
