The Buzz: If Paper Towns connects with a young-adult audience, expect to find The Fault in Our Stars author John Green labeled as "the next" John Hughes. Or Cameron Crowe. Or perhaps neither of those comparisons are accurate, but Green will certainly become defined by his ability to connect with younger people. Personally, this story idea, which on one level seems to suggest that coolness is nothing but artifice, is pulling me into the theater to see what else this road movie has to offer.

The Buzz: The suddenly hard-to-market Adam Sandler should have his first bona-fide hit since Grown Ups 2 with this nostalgia-baiting attempt to reassert him as a leading man by ... making him part of a larger ensemble of heroes. Not a bad move at all, and if you've noticed, the trailers and other marketing focus more on the arcade characters than the live-action cast.
