The Great Gatsby

Good movie desu
Underrated by critics

never read the book or seen the movie lol

>>81500222
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.

>>81500222
Looked goddamn fantastic, everything else was shit.

>>81500222
Why doesn't everyone just drive their own car?

>>81500263
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 /tv/ 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

>>81500348
He sucked a lot of dick

>nigger music

>>81500222
>le it's completely shit because of le modern music meme

Best adaption yet. That doesn't say too much, however.

>>81500222
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*

>>81500222
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

>>81500222

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.

>Jay, you can't repeat the past.

>Why of course you can, old sport. Of course you can.

>>81500222
It failed in a very spectacular fashion. Also the soundtrack was beyond horrible.

>>81501819
>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.

>>81500320
Martin Freeman has charisma at least.

>a celebration of extravagance
Thank you for writing this for me

>>81501881
>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

I liked Tugboat Tobey.

The rest was trash.

Tobey MADE Spiderman.
