The trailers have been great. I'm at a 7 out of 10 in excitement.

Bad casting, Vinny Chase was born to play Nick Carraway.

I'm kinda meh about it. I love Luhrman, and I love the book. I'm surprised I'm not more excited.

They are going to try to put big rims and a spoiler on a classic 76 mustang.

the trailers look like absolute dog shite to me. It looks very very very over the top and cartoon like. And I love the book. Will give it a shot on HBO.

I think the CG and green screen work looked like arse in the previews I've seen.

Shitty book.

Every adaptation has been shitty. This one will be as well.

Can't make a shite story a great movie.

I would love to hear. I actually think Maguire seems perfect as a naive Nick Carraway.

I am not a Mulligan fan

Baz Luhrmann knocked the last book I read in freshman English out the park, so I'm in.

I have this theory that if you chop off all her hair she'd look like a British man
