GREAT GATSBY REMAKE!
Leonardo DiCaprio ... Jay Gatsby
Tobey Maguire ... Nick Carraway
Carey Mulligan ... Daisy Buchanan
Isla Fisher ... Myrtle
Elizabeth Debicki ... Jordan Baker
Joel Edgerton ... Tom Buchanan
Leo is perfect for Gatsby, and Isla for Myrtle. And even though Tobey is super annoying in Spiderman, I'm sure he'll make a great (albeit slightly dunce-ish) Nick. I can't really picture Carey Mulligan as Daisy, even though she was great in Pride and Prejudice (I haven't seen Never Let Me Go yet).
No, wait. I can picture it now. I am so excited. |
YES. |
I had an emo stage where I really liked Edgar Allan Poe poems. So I am excited for this. Also, John Cusack is kinda cute.
Wait, he has a goatee? Meeeh. :/ But you have to admit, he does look a lot like Poe now.

LES MIZ REMAKE!
http://www.movieinsider.com/m8831/les-miserables/
Hugh Jackman ... Jean Valjean
Russell Crowe ... Inspector Javert
Anne Hathaway ... Fantine
Eddie Redmayne ... Marius
Hugh Jackman ... Jean Valjean
Russell Crowe ... Inspector Javert
Anne Hathaway ... Fantine
Eddie Redmayne ... Marius
Now I don't normally like Anne Hathaway, but since Fantine is supposed to be naive but lovable bimbo that everyone pities, I'm thinking she'll do fine. Hugh Jackman is great, and not because of Wolverine (go see The Fountain, which I should have included in my favorites post. I'll write about it here, then.)
The Fountain (2006)
First heard about it while I was editing a friend's essay for her university class in Philosophy and Logic.
Trailer here, because the plot's a little hard to explain. (Three of the same guy but in different time periods search for immortality?)
YouTube highest rated comment: Best Hugh Jackman ever. I wish he was known for this instead of Wolverine. |
The uplifting soundtrack is great for making boring work seem more dramatic and exciting, too.
Where was I? Oh, right, Les Miz. I'm sure Russell Crowe will do fine, and I looked up Eddie Redmayne, and it looks like he has the right amount of fop with a a hint of douche to be Marius. Hohoho, I should get that phrase patented.

ReplyDeleteWhaaat? I thought it was touching and conveyed the theme of the fruitless search for immortality very well. So sad when his wife died. Why didn't you like it? :o
ReplyDeleteYAY I WANNA WATCH BEAUTY AND THE BEAST WITH HERMIONE IN IT XD
