I don't know if I like the idea of Ellen Page as Margo...but then again, it isn't really up to me.

[Allison]

WAY too blonde and girly.
Well...I guess its a good thought.
Because she is actually a decent actress.
She just...I don't know, I cannot see her at all in that kind of role.

[Dan]

Not good for Margo but, I can kind of see her as Lacey maybe

[Arielle]

She'd actually make a great Lacey. I can totally see her in the part...

[Mrs.William Shakespeare (Phd)]

too blonde and girly. yes.

[OSBD]

So... what do we think of a Nerdfighter playing a side character in the movie? or if there was a contest to get a spot with 2-3 lines in the movie??? How awesome would THAT be?!

[Melodie]

I was thinking the other day how fun it would be to play Lacey....though, that will probably never happen. I would be so happy if I got even a small role, or if any Nerdfigther did! Or even more than one of us! That would be so fun :D

[Arielle]

That would be awesome if the cast was made up of a bunch of Nerdfighters. Afterall, we as fans of the John Green books understand characters the best... :-)

[lindsay.the.bomb]

I would love to act in Paper Towns. But I'm a ginger. Which has disadvantages.

[Hilary]

hayden is too blonde and girly.

i like the girl on the cover. well i like her more on the dark cover.

wouldn't it be cool if John DID have a hand in making the script... and he slipped in B2.0 jokes without the writers or directors knowing... but then the Nerdfighters are like "OMG!!! SO JOKESLY AWESOME FTW!!!!! AYBABTJohn!!!! OMG!!! FUNNY!!!"



AYBABTJohn = All Your Base Are Belong to John.

[Finn]
