Holy Crap
I've just come across this astoundingly awesome animation that reimagines "Looking for Alaska" using The Sims 2. Plus I like the soundtrack. Check it:

That was really cool!! Loved it!
Was Alaska a blonde? I don't remember that.
Wow! Using The Sims to make a movie? I definitely don't have that much skill.
Does this mean you are home from the hospital, John? Is so congratulations! I hope you are feeling better.
OH, MY GOD!
That is unbelieveably awesome!
You just came across it?!
How blown is your mind?!
I can't think of a more deserving book by a more deserving guy at a more deserving time to receive this honor.
Jenn V. did a fantastic job with her video -- and I liked the song choice.
Holy crap indeed.
As a Sims 2 user (recovering addict), I can tell you this was extremely difficult and time-consuming to create!
Does anyone know who the song is by? I love it and it captures the whole thing perfectly!
Oh My God. That was amazing.
I love the song. What is the name of it?
You are my favorite author.

Wow, that's very cool.
And not only is it faithful to Looking for Alaska, it's eerily reminiscent of what our lives were like back when you were writing Looking for Alaska. Specifically I mean in terms of how we devoted our days mostly to video games and hysterical crying, and how you never changed your shirt.
Also, The Sims 2 looks considerably awesomer than The Sims 1.
That was so beautiful--what a tribute to your story! The animated characters looked so much like how I imagined them (especially Alaska and her too-tight tank-top). What a nice "feel better" gift for you...

nice work...im just finishing the book now and im glad you included someone from the university of central florida because thats where ill be starting in the fall!
the song is "beauty in the breakdown" by the scene aesthetic
Holy cow.
That is seriously amazing. I love it!
I hate to put a downer on it, and it was good. But Alaska was blonde in the video, which she is clearly not in the book. and Pudge's pants were not big enough. :D. Sorry to be a critic. haha. The Sims make crying look completely rediculous.
the girl who made that, Jenn, is from my school, and she presented that in english. WOW! this is really cool.
Jenn if my bff and she rox my socks. Her video is amazing.
