      I'm honestly both terrified and excited for this to be a movie. You almost NEVER hear the words 'The movie was just as good as/better than the movie.' Things are always left out (which is understandable), or changed WAY too much. Using popu...lar celebrities, namely Selena Gomez or Demi Lavato or whatever would be a huge mistake. Like others have said, the main characters should go to actors who aren't well known.

      okay, my computer let me see it this time.and, before i say this, just know that i've dealt with suicidals and i've lost a family member because nobody wanted to donate her any organs. but...this is a guy's LIFE on the line. i do not think ...that he is depressed. i think he's doing this to help people. i went into watching this keeping a clear opinion do i could catch the obvious. and the line that makes me think he shouldn't do this is "i have nothing left to live for." ...not true.
      if i'm wrong, convince me of it. i'm not a stubborn person.       See More
