The Great Gatsby vol. 2012 Tobey Maguire, Leonardo Dicaprio, Carey Mulligan

[af1 1982]

This, the Sun Also Rises, and the Kite Runner were probably my favorite books in high school

@ it was okay overall
Didn't like this book when I read it or now either. Feel the same way about Catcher in the Rye. Crazy over hyped for a supposed classic book. Lord of the Flies > both

I didn't get to like GG until I saw the '74 film

Did everyone read Gatsby in senior year?

Frankly, Leo's banking on Django Unchained.

sadly i agree with you, thought i left WTT on repeat on my laptop when i watched it, Hopefully the 2nd trailer will be better. 

 @ peeps thinking vinnie chase would be in this, especially if Marty Scorecese is directing the movie, you KNOW leo would be the lead in real life.

Leo is like the Merryl Streep for men when it comes to oscars, always nominated but never wins. Hopefully he gets the supporting nod for django. but with so many heavy hitters coming out later(les miserables, hobbit, django, lawless, gangster squad,skyfall) this film could go overlooked if not executed correctly.

All of this

The fact they use a 2011 jay z / kanye west single for a movie in the 1920's throws up a huge red flag to me. Instantly ruined any kind of atmosphere the trailer was trying to set. You just don't do that.

I hate that broad, her unattractiveness ruined Wall Street 2 and Drive for me

...

I don't even...

 

[presequel]

tobey look like he would touch you and cry but smirk at the same time

 

[weekz]

Looks interesting. A movie I will actually get off my lazy @%% to go see in theaters for. Thanks for the heads up.

She's won a few though.  3 out of 17.  The ratio isn't that great

Leo >>>>>> All


Imagine shorty's tit hanging off in 3D though....

[omgitswes]

I'm excited.
is there a movie based on Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald's life?

 

[cronicmolemolereturns]

Leo is my favorite actor. But,he doesnt look like ''The Great Gatsby'' he seems uncomfortable..

Love this episode, when Ari gets his edge back!


he film, well I literally can not wait for it.! Too bad Scorsese isn't directing, that would be crazy.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

Meh. Not what I was expecting at all. Got a different feel from the book.

3D, too. Gotta love Hollywood.

 

[agthekid]

[brockbo]

Gatsby is an uncomfortable/awkward character in the book though

I seen Shame. Nothing moved when she had her little whorish sex scene. That broad is unimpressive but it aint nothing wrong with yall liking plain janes.

It's almost as if Leo took this role as a favor to someone involved with its production. When it comes out, I'll give it a watch, but I don't expect it to be a great film, maybe a good movie, but not a great film. The fact that it's 3D
