No, The Great Gatsby Trailer Does Not Have A Jay-Z & Kanye Song In It
Yes, it does and I'm just going to try to forget that.
I just watched my dog poo before he pissed (I did not know dogs can do this! Even I can't do this!) and even that was less confusing to me than the first trailer for Baz Luhrmann's 3D EXTRAVAGANZAAAAAAAAA remake of The Great Gatsby starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Leonardo DiCaprio's main homegirl Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan and Isla Fisher. On one hand, this looks like a life-like video game and Carey Mulligan and Leo look like they have the chemistry of two flaccid peens. On the other hand, it has glitter confetti! Since this mess is in 3D, the glitter confetti is going to come at my face (I'll finally know what it feels like to get a facial from Liberace)! Seriously, I think Baz had me at glitter confetti. But he could've thrown 3D glitter confetti on a piece of shit (which is probably what this movie will be) and I'd be happy. (No Scat Queen here.)

oh it's definitely an American classic, and every HS English student should read at least one Fitzgerald novel to get a real insight into the decadence of the "Roaring 20s," but greatness is subjective...I guess. I didn't like that Fitz pretty much beats you over the head with the symbolism. I like it better when it's not so in your face. I'll give it a re-read, because maybe being a slacker high school student colored my opinion ;)
I still believe, however, that the single most overrated book of all time is Catcher in the Rye. *dodges tomatoes*

I never liked the book although sometimes that happens when you read something that everyone tells you is a classic. It's like 'really? This?'
It is not a great book.
With that said, it is very definitive of its time, and there are flashes of genius here and there (in the dialogue mostly) that I could not help being charmed by. There was a lot of hype surrounding it before it was published, which has kept the myth alive that is it some great work.
I didn't realize Baz did Strictly Ballroom. That was one of my favorite movies for a long time. Tina Sparkle's hair was a sight to behold.
Looks like shit. I can't even remember the book. So please don't make me go read it again to remember what the plot is supposed to even be about.
Moulin Rouge + Aviator + Scott Stapp music = this unholy mess.
Leo looks like a fat, bloated alcoholic boss I had many, many years ago.

In the book, Gatsby is beautiful and irresistible. They got it right with Robert Redford.
I don't buy bloated, aged-too-quickly DiCaprio as Gatsby. He hasn't been attractive since "The Beach."
While the trailer for this has me worried, I don't think it will be that bad.
I've been looking forward to this for a while. Great Gatsby is one of my favorite books ever. I actually quite like Carey Mulligan a lot. (Everyone says she's bland, but I think she's a great actress. Remember, BLAKE LIVELY was up for that role, guys.)
My problem with Baz Luhrmann is that he suffers from "too much" syndrome. You know that philosophy (if you're a lady) that you're supposed to look int he mirror before you leave the house and take one thing off? Baz Luhrmann should do that with his movies, haha.
I hated Moulin Rouge and Australia but I liked Romeo & Juliet and Strictly Ballroom. This movie has to do well for him because if it doesn't he's in deep shit. Australia bombed (plus it was awful) and if this bombs too, no more big budget shit for him ever.

"The film could work, if they just go full Moulin Rouge and aren't too loyal to the book. I think you're right that a translation of the book wouldn't work. My worry is that the book has such a central place in the American canon that they'll be too loyal."
Skinny Fat says: Then why bother adapting the book? Just write an original script with a similiar storyline and be done with it. Oh I forgot, mainstream Hollywood can't come up with original scripts (*rolls eyes at the sadness of it all)
*********************
But I have to stand up for Mulligan. Yes, she's low energy.
Skinny Fat says: But she looks like she going to fall asleep any minute. She just annoys me. What was amazing in An Education is now just boring.
And you're wrong about Daisy. She wasn't sleepwalking through life.
Leo looks like he's trying to squeeze out a dooty bubble the whole time

Are we already supposed to know what The Great Gatsby is about? Because I have no idea from that trailer. It looks dramatic and beautiful, as all Luhrmann's movies do, but I get no sense of plot from that preview.
Holy shit that looks like one hot mess.
Ok. So there is very little point in remaking a film done to death unless you are doing a new interpretation or putting a different slant on it. So props to Baz for that. BUT this looks shit. Bad acting and bad casting. I cannot bear Carey Mulligan, she was so annoying in Drive, like a dowdy meerkat.
I never liked the book although sometimes that happens when you read something that everyone tells you is a classic. It's like 'really? This?' Like I read Vile Bodies by Evelyn Waugh which I knew nothing about and loved, but when I read Brideshead Revisited which I knew was supposed to be his magnum opus, I thought it was the dullest piece of crap ever.

HELLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO????? Some books cannot be made into a movie and The Great Gatsby is one of them. I knew Baz would royally fuck up my favorite book. Enough with the 3D, enough with Leo and would someone wake Carey Mulligan up? She's the most low energy actress ever.

I also agree with you about the 3D. It's the one reason I definitely *won't* be seeing this, even though I'm very curious. It has NO POINT WHATSOEVER.
But I have to stand up for Mulligan. Yes, she's low energy, but that's not such a bad thing. I always got the impression that there's something passive and reactive about Daisy. She's so careless and privileged that she never has to strive; she just takes the low energy route to preserving the status quo. (You can correct me on this one; I'll totally take it.)

I am thrilled to see that Leo is growing old and fat like all the rest of us.
====================
TBH, I think he's just as happy about how he's ageing as the rest of us are about watching it, which kind of takes the sheen off it.
I always get the feeling that he's glorying in not being the pretty boy anymore, and not having to maintain his appearance like most actors have to.
He still gets roles, he still gets laid and, barring some ridiculous and highly implausible catastrophe, will never want for money.
Also, he apparently doesn't have to wash to get the good things in life:

Am I jealous, grossed out, or do I admire how he's managed to manoeuvre his life in that direction? Or any combination thereof? I have no idea.

DiCatchaHo seems to do well in period pieces, but SERIOUSLY, is 3D really necessary?
That could be good. Not sure- when Luhrman gets it right... there is just nothing better, but when he gets it wrong.... well... it's just a train wreck of epic proportions.
1/2 books I liked in HS ..I am probably lame enough to go see it but my husband probably won't want to..so it will probably never happen! It will be on PayPerView by Spring 2013 -- I can wait.
I loved the book, and was ok with the 70's movie.
This version makes me wanna cry...
Everyone is ohhing and ahhing cause it's Luhrmann, but I hated his Romeo and Juliet, and thought Moulin was fine, but he is NOT.THE.ONE to make this movie.
They should have asked Scorsese to make it.
and Jay-Z and Kanye? really?? because they are better than jazz? really? what a joke....oh and then let's make it 3D folks!
I seriously can't with this.
I have to go lay down, it's giving me the vapors.

im confused.
this is sorta like a cross betwen moulin rouge and lord of the rings meets fifth element or something, lord i dont even know what the fuck it is. its like baz'z asshole exploded and he just went with it.
Holy crap. Luhrmann has turned it into Blade Runner, or at the very least Men in Black III. WTF? Fitzgerald is spinning to Australia (and Woody Allen is slitting his wrists).
This is going to get crucified, and rightly so. I've never seen so much glitter in my life.
I think this gold lame monster will hit. Looks like Baz went for a shiny, glitzy spectacle and that will probably be on everyone's Xmas list. It might even be kinda good. I really wanted Roseann Barr for Daisy though.
Leo looks like he tamed the bloat a little bit but the whole thing still looks like a big pile of who gives a fuck.
This shit looks terrible.
Looks interesting, but no thanks to 3D. My friend and I went to see Avatar in 3D and she got motion sick. Nearly threw up and had to put her head between her knees.

LOL MK, I don't know about flaccid peens or glamour-filled confetti, but I remember loving the book and movie and to me this looks even closer to Fitzgerald's vision than Clayton's Redford/Farrow/Waterson extravaganza... (can't stand Mia) I am guilty of thinking that DiCaprio/Mulligan/Maguire sound interesting, I freely admit it - I know!! But I do believe Luhrmann may top them all yet!

I can no longer stomach going to the cinema - not just because of the ridiculous prices and the fact that a lot of recent films fucking suck, but also because I can no longer bring myself to sit at a place for 90+mins.

There were a few good parts.

I've had it with Leo, fail! I do think that nyone in this world would be an improvement over the homely Mia Farrow as Daisy so that's the only bright spot. I feel no aristocracy here. Yeah it was the roaring 20's and everyone is supposed to be so rich and free but this feels like a movie made at the Palms hotel. Next!
