Gatsby is Great!!




Just read that Baz Luhrmann is planning to remake THE GREAT GATSBY, and I'm psyched!

It's one of my favorite books ever, I've read it a gazillion times!

Now, who do you think should be cast as Jay, Daisy, and Nick  . . .???

    This movie could make F. Scott Fitzgerald the new Jane Austen!

  2. I'm stumped on Gatsby, but I could see Adrian Brody as Nick, and someone very blonde--Naomi Watts, maybe--as Daisy.

  5. Oh that news makes me happy!:) I loved that book when I read it in high school (one of the few required reading books I actually enjoyed) and I adore all of Baz Luhrman's movies. This would be a match made in heaven!

  8. I love THE GREAT GATSBY! :)

    I've ALWAYS pictured P.Diddy/Puff Daddy as the Gatsby. :) Even when I re-read the book a few years ago, I kept picturing him.

  10. Don't know how I'd cast it, but I know Daisy should be someone blond and filmy.
