Leo should not be playing Gatsby.......

It should be Brad Pitt tbh.

The second half of the trailer isn't as good as the first half, that's for sure.

Seriously, WTT and The Great Gatsby? You can tell by the title art/ first poster that they're trying to draw comparisons to those two works. I mean, WTT and TGG share so many themes.

Ah, this looks visually awesome, and I'm at least intrigued by this book adaptation, though the slight overacting in the trailer alone worries me a bit.

Wait, Baz Luhrmann's directing this? Moulin Rouge Baz?

And now, it all makes sense.

[ReflectingGod]

I'm excited for this, but I feel like its partially just because the trailer (visually) reminds me of Moulin Rouge and I ****ing love that movie

Rewatch the last 20 minutes of Moulin Rouge and then come back and say that.

It's how Luhrmann handles subtlety that I'm more worried about. The Great Gatsby is built on that. We'll see though.

Looks like a really amazing production and I think the casting of Carey Mulligan & Leo DiCaprio is good too, really excited for this film!

I wish someone would do a film/tv adaptation of The Beautiful and Damned though, I liked that more than Gatsby Although I'm probably one of a very small number to think this...

The film is so boring, but that's just me.

I really like this.

I thought it was a fantastic choice, especially "No Church in the Wild."

"What's a mob to a king / What's a king to a God / What's a God to a nonbeliever?"

Great Gatsby is all about social class and whether you can ever be on the radar of someone who's world is fundamentally different than yours.

Visually beautiful but I don't feel like it introduced enough of the story.
Either way a superb trailer.

I just finished reading this book today, ironically.

[Shapes]

Did you like it, Deuces?

[Stephen]

I get why they used No Church in the Wild, but it just didn't mesh well with me. It may make sense thematically, but it's still a 2010s song that's propped up against 20s visuals and a story that's a well-established time piece.

One of my favorite books! I can't wait!

Looking great. Then again trailers these days make movies look so much better than they are in reality.
Hopefully won`t be disappointed.

Horrible.

Baz is absolutely the wrong person to be directing this film. The CGI and excessive costuming make it look so cheap. The whole tone is just wrong and the attempts at being "cool" with the modern music degrades the story.
