Albeit a little fuzzy around the edges, here's the trailer for the movie adaptation of John Marsden's Tomorrow, When the War Began. I am totally digging the trailer and it pretty much seems to be running true to the book. I am impressed.

Opening on Australian shores September 2nd, I am pretty confident that it will pull in some numbers opening week. Every kid I know read at least the first book in this series at some point. For those of you not of the Australian persuasion, TWWB is a book that details the adventures of a group of country teens battling against a foreign army that has invaded Australia.

Some Americans might be thinking....sounds like Red Dawn. There are similarities but I feel confident that this book adaptation will allow the series to break away from that comparison.

Also....I LOVE Homer...always have, always will. Best Australian-Greek YA boy ever~
