Going home to watch YouTube videos of two grown men rant and rave about giraffe sex has never been so amusing; specifically, when one of the two is world famous author John Green.
Commonly known as Vlogbrothers, Hank and John Green connect and educate their audience through their various YouTube channels. Most famous is their Vlogbrothers channel, which produces two videos a week, with topics ranging from timely worldwide problems (most recently the government shutdown) to 53 of the most terrible jokes.
However, the videos they create aren’t their sole focus. John Green, better known for his numerous best-selling books, has been named by the New York Times as “arguably the most popular young adult author of America today.”
The brothers’ fame is most likely sourced back to the start of their vlogs; originally starting out as a daily challenge to make videos addressed to each other for an entire year, the brothers’ videos have evolutionized into insightfully funny 3-minute long tidbits of something that will alter viewers’ perspective of life.
Hank Green, the younger of the two, is an intelligent but easily amused punster and intellectual songwriter. Hank hosts multiple different Channels and is the co-founder of Vidcon, a YouTube-based convention. John Green, however, is more commonly known as the author behind the young adult novel, “The Fault in Our Stars, ” and others. Spoiler alert: You will cry when you read his best-known book.
“The Fault in Our Stars,” which will be lovingly referred to as TFIOS from here on out, has a plot that will take your heart on a friendly date before stabbing it and watching it writhe in pain until nothing is left but a sobbing pile of pitiful emotions. In other words, it has a touching storyline that will keep you from putting it down.
Recently announced, TFIOS movie will premiere in theaters next June. Despite John Green’s constant reassurance that the story is placed in the capable hands of a great director, actor and set, we were understandably nervous.
Thankfully, John Green has been heavily involved with the movie production of TFIOS. Filming has already begun, with the author often on set. Through John’s Twitter, Tumblr and YouTube channel, he can be seen literally crying over how beautifully the movie is coming together.
If anything, it’s reassuring. When a director can make the author cry, the movie must be as heart wrenching as the book. Now avid fans can sit and wait “patiently” until the trailer for this movie is released. What a relief, because there is nothing worse than an inaccurate movie adaption. Cough cough, “The Lightning Thief.”
Brothers by chance, life changers by choice
