Who the fuck okayed the decision to use modern nigger music in the soundtrack when the film is clearly set in the jazz age of the 20s? Seriously makes this film unwatchable

Also, read somewhere that some guy made a fan edit replacing all the monkey music with classy jazz music
But I can't find it anywhere on the face of the internet

A friend told me there was a scene with a drag race and dancers with pasties. Goddamn. Would be like playing Frank Zappa in the Gilded Age.

Elizabeth Debicki was a pretty good casting, makes my dick hard in every scene she'sin

cause in the books it comes off as him being a fag

Luhrman had a hit with Romeo+Juliet so now he tries to copy that every time. Somehow having a choir sing Prince and featuring modern firearms in a Shakespeare play doesn't feel as jarring as all the shitty movies he pumped out afterwards.

Because it was a modern story when it was written, adding modern elements to it gives it a nudge toward a modern atmosphere without redoing the entire story/aesthetic.

Because Baz made a hit with moulin rouge, which did the same thing with contemporary music.

There's two sides to the reddit. The cringy dumb leftist normies, and edgy sperglords from the_donald. Being compared to any of them is equally offensive.

One story that always sticks out to me about this film: They shot a version of the "Her voice, it's full of money" scene from the book, which is a pretty important detail. Then they realised it 'interrupted the flow' of Gatsby's arc at that moment (paraphrasing), so they cut it out. But then when you watch the deleted scene itself, it's apparent that they completely misunderstood/fucked up the tone of it, and had they done it accurately it would have been a non-issue. So the sheer botching of the adapting process became a problem for the film in editing, leading to even further botching. That's impressively messy.

It's a pretty film, but the story is supposed to be nuanced and critical rather than an opulent melodrama. Luhrmann and his style were always far too shallow to actually handle it. It's like if you let Zack Snyder adapt Watchm- uh never mind.

The anachronistic music is possibly the only interesting choice in the entire production, particularly the way they integrated it with jazz-style band arrangements. (eg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB74iSkBcLw) Brechtian.
