As someone who is most certainly not a fan of Baz and has not read the novel, should I spend money to go see this? Or should I read the book first or what?

Yeah, you should probably read the book to make sure that something about this appeals to you.

Just came back from seeing this. I loved this movie and thought the cast gave really good performances including Tobey Maguire who I thought would be the weakest part.

Oh well. i actually prefer more mature looking faces, without the botox/surgery/caps etc (see: Lena Headey - hot but real), but this poor girl's window to play twenty-somethings is rapidly closing. I guess being petite will help.

Yeah she looked liek 50 or something in GAtsby and it really brought me out of the movie.

I wonder if this guy and Jaxteller are the same person?

Saw it over a week ago. Loved it. Dicaprio and Edgerton were fantastic. Leo proved everyone right that hes perfect for Gatsby. I saw it in 3D but didnt notice any difference. Aside from the score and some of the obvious things about the style I had no problems with it. Although you do get used to it since it is a bit long.

Sorry if this has been posted already.

Awesome. He's so handsome in Gatsby. Goddammit... Great performance.

Fuckin' hated Daisy though. I don't blame Mulligan but the character was annoying.
