Today Sup Forums discusses this movie.
The Great Gatsby
Good movie desu
Underrated by critics
never read the book or seen the movie lol
Truly horrible and cheezy
How the fuck does Tobey Maguire keep getting roles in high profile movies? He has virtually no charisma or stage presence. Is he just good at sucking dick or what?
Baz Luhrmann has never made a film that was not trash.
When that guy started talking about how cool racism is was the only part i really paid attention.
Looked goddamn fantastic, everything else was shit.
Why doesn't everyone just drive their own car?
He's like Martin Freeman. He just react to shit happening in the movie and it's funny.
So wait how was Gatsby rich again? He conned some old man out of his money and became a bootlegger?
Fucking Uncle Owen was in it
Conan O'Brien was in star wars?!??!
I remember this movie being controversial on Sup Forums upon release because of the shoehorned "urban" soundtrack. Some things never change I guess.
>that scene of them chimping out to Jay-Z in a 1920's jalopy
kek
He sucked a lot of dick
>nigger music
>le it's completely shit because of le modern music meme
Best adaption yet. That doesn't say too much, however.
Moulin Rouge is the only decent Luhrman film. His directing style with fucking lights and 21st century pop music is very cancerous and makes you not take the movie seriously (with the slapstick thrown in)
tl;dr Luhrman is a retarded aussie actor
Gatsby was ok I guess
director*
I disliked the choice in music, and I feel the movie failed to portray the message of the book and was more of a celebration of extravagance
i enjoyed it tbqh
also nice trips
A patrician film.
more like the GOAT gatsby
checkem
What's the word for pure kino that both plebs and patricians, but not critics or reddit, enjoy? Pic related.
Baz Luhrmann movies are like a man dangling shiny keys in front of a baby.
They really are fucking awful and I question the intelligence anyone who likes Gatsby or fucking Moulin Rouge.
Name a flaw with Gatsby?
>Jay, you can't repeat the past.
>Why of course you can, old sport. Of course you can.
It failed in a very spectacular fashion. Also the soundtrack was beyond horrible.
>Old Sport
>Leo's Acting
>Toby's Acting
>Them doing the car crash in slow motion
>That it created one of the lamest fucking memes of all time ("well meme'd my friend")
Do I need to go on? Fuck that movie.
Some of the CG was garbage. The mix of rap+jazz was absolute grabage. Other than that great. Baz has yet to make a bad movie.
Martin Freeman has charisma at least.
>a celebration of extravagance
Thank you for writing this for me
>normie produced memes made the movie bad
Gatsby literally says Old Sport in almost every single sentence in the book. Leo's acting was fine and much better in comparison to Toby's.
Film was pure aesthetic
Soundtrack was absolute kino
I'm almost positive he got into this movie because him and Leo are good friends
So, less Martin Freeman, more Rob Schneider
Criminally underrated. It was the movie baz luhrmann was born to direct.
Fucking this. Completely misses the point of the novel
accurate
I liked Tugboat Tobey.
The rest was trash.
Tobey MADE Spiderman.
