August 7, 201212 yr Warner Bros Pushes Leonardo Di Caprio “Gatsby” Out of Oscar ContentionYeesh. Warner Bros. has moved Baz Luhrmann’s 3D version of “The Great Gatsby” out of Oscar contention. It’s going to come out in Summer 2013 instead of this Christmas. This means a few things. One is that “Gatsby” is a mess and has no place at the Oscars. Two, Christopher Nolan is insisting on an all out push for ‘The Dark Knight Rises” and doesn’t want “Gatsby” in his way. Or both. And I’ll tell you what: Nolan would be right. With ten films up for Best Picture, I would back “The Dark Knight Rises” for the 10th spot, and Nolan for Best Director. Why not? This is no different than “Lord of the Rings.” WB should go all out for him.As for “Gatsby”: the trailer looked horrifying. Leo looked horrified in it. Luhrmann has turned F. Scott Fitzgerald’s epic of class distinction into a pop up book about the Roaring 20s. Releasing it in the summer is like saying. We don’t know what do, so on top of “Superman” we’re going to slide this one by you. Too bad. DiCaprio misses a chance at Best Actor. But at least he can go up for Supporting in Quentin Tarantino’s “Django Unchained.” And that’s good news, because– like Cate Blanchett in “The Aviator”–he’s guaranteed that win. The Academy knows how hard he’s worked. So other Best Supporting Actors mau have to accept this. It’s good news and bad news for everyone except F. Scott Fitzgerald, who could never catch a break in Hollywood.Source: http://www.showbiz411.com/2012/08/06/warner-bros-pushes-leonardo-di-caprio-gatsby-out-of-oscar-contention
August 7, 201212 yr You're welcome, Amandine.Never said this before... but I love your Gatsby set :wub2:.
August 7, 201212 yr Frances Oh, what a good way to start off work day, with a pix of Leo Reading the person's blog, is amazing all the celebs she has seen when out over the last year or more. Also, tks for Gatsby article In the Gatsby delay article below , they claim that two Gatsby production sources told them the delay is due to needing more time to finish 3D/soundtrack finishing Leonardo DiCaprio's Great Gatsby film delayed to 2013 Tobey Maguire, Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan star in The Great Gatsby Baz Luhrmann's 3D adaptation of The Great Gatsby will not be released until next summer, Warner Bros has announced. The film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan, had been due for release on Christmas Day in the US and the day after in the UK. However Warner Bros said it was pushing the film back to ensure it "reaches the largest audience possible". The release date puts the film, based on F Scott Fitzgerald's novel, out of contention for next year's Oscars. A Christmas release would have pitted the film against other highly anticipated movies including Les Miserables, Tom Cruise's Jack Reacher and the first instalment of The Hobbit trilogy. It will now battle against summer blockbusters like Iron Man 3, Star Trek 2, Monsters University and new Superman film Man of Steel. A summer release also makes Luhrmann's film a much less-favoured contender for the 2014 awards season. Film studios generally line up Oscar contenders for December and January, which is when Academy voters receive their ballot papers. Warner Bros gave no explanation for the delay of The Great Gatsby, simply saying it wanted to make sure "this unique film reaches the largest audience possible". However, two unnamed sources close to the production told the LA Times that the extra time would allow Luhrmann "more time to finish its extensive 3D effects and a planned all-star soundtrack". "Based on what we've seen, Baz Luhrmann's incredible work is all we anticipated and so much more," Dan Fellman, Warner Bros's president of domestic distribution, said in a statement. "It truly brings Fitzgerald's American classic to life in a completely immersive, visually stunning and exciting way. "We think moviegoers of all ages are going to embrace it." International distribution president Veronika Kwan Vandenberg added: "The responses we've had to some of the early sneak peeks have been phenomenal, and we think The Great Gatsby will be the perfect summer movie around the world." Tobey Maguire and Isla Fisher also star in Luhrmann's adaptation of the F Scott Fitzgerald novel.
August 7, 201212 yr Thanks Nanda for the article, even though the girl just put all the tweets in article form And thanks Francis for the pic! And thanks Ox for the Gatsby article! I hope the real reasons for the movie being pushed back are due to him perfecting the 3-d ect, as usually pushing movies back means a bad thing. But I'm no industry insider, so I have no clue But Moulin Rouge was a summer movie, and still gained oscar recognition, and I actaully really liked the film, so we'll see. Eonlines take.. The Great Gatsby Oscar Shake-Up: Leonardo DiCaprio's Loss, Christian Bale's Gain? Christian Bale could be moving up because Leonardo DiCaprio is moving out. That's one of the possible Oscar-season implications in the unexpected retreat of DiCaprio's The Great Gatsby from its planned Christmas Day release. "It's a major shakeup," veteran awards-show watcher Tom O'Neil of GoldDerby.com said Monday There was no official explanation for the moving of Gatsby from December to an unspecified summer 2013 date, but Scott Feinberg, lead awards-season blogger and analyst for the Hollywood Reporter, saw potential box-office benefits—and potential Oscar pitfalls. The summer launch could mean the film, lavish and 3-D though it may be, gets buried, Feinberg said, and with it the performances of its lead actors, DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan, who, at this stage in the game for the 2013 Oscars show, looked like top contenders for Best Actor and Best Actress, respectively. "She's basically right there, hitting her stride," Feinberg said on Mulligan. "It was potentially her moment. [Now] it's either delayed or not going to happen." And then there's DiCaprio, still looking for his first Academy Award after a career of big hits and three previous nominations. "It could be cheating Leonardo DiCaprio out of his long overdue Oscar," O'Neil said. By Monday afternoon, the prediction charts at GoldDerby had already scrubbed The Great Gatsby from its ranks of contenders. O'Neil saw Mulligan's absence from the Best Actress race as potentially benefiting former winners Marion Cotillard (Rust and Bone) and Helen Hunt (The Sessions) and the elementary school-aged Quvenzhané Wallis, of the art-house and possible Best Picture favorite Beasts of the Southern Wild. In the DiCaprio-free Best Actor category, O'Neil saw improved odds perhaps for The Dark Knight Rises' Bale and Jamie Foxx, who has the title role in Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained. DiCaprio could still make out this coming awards season but in the Best Supporting Actor category, Feinberg said, for his turn in Django Unchained. Perhaps owing to its top-flight cast and Great American Novel pedigree, Gatsby was one of the Top 10 Best Picture contenders, per the earliest odds from the gaming sites. It was right up there with Anna Karenina and running ahead of The Dark Knight Rises, Django and extreme long shot The Avengers. Now it's 2014's problem. Eonline
August 7, 201212 yr Sorry if this is a repost, I missed a little bit when I was on vacay Leonardo DiCaprio's 'The Beach' to Be Turned Into TV Series FOX is developing a new TV series based on 2000's movie "The Beach" starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Deadline reports that the network has scored the drama project which has "The Secret Circle" writer Andrew Miller penning the script."It's about a group of young people feeling disconnected and disenchanted from society who try to start over in paradise but discover that while creating the perfect world is hard, protecting it is even harder," Canadian actor/scribe/director Miller says of the plotline.The original movie itself is directed by Danny Boyle and based on Alex Garland's 1996 novel of the same title. It follows DiCaprio's Richard, an American student who leads a group of travelers to find a beach paradise on a secret island but once they find it, they learn that things are not as idyllic as they seem.http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00052872.html
August 7, 201212 yr Which Magazines Are the Most Screwed by Gatsby Switch?The highly-anticipated Great Gatsby re-boot (or whatever!) was to be released this Christmas, but it’s avoiding the Anna Karenina/Django Unchained/Hobbit pile-up with a move to next summer. Totally speculating here: this throws the editorial calendars of several top magazines into chaos. Herewith, our deeply un-educated guesses on the stories and cover lines editors are stuck with:Leonardo DiCaprio (Gatsby), Vanity Fair, December 2012Headline: “YES, LEO’S BACK! Hollywood’s Ultimate Bad Boy Goes Back to the Roaring Twenties–and Aims At Oscar”Editorial Concept: Leo plays with a baby tiger cub, smokes a cigar by a pool, walks through a hedge maze.Source (plus more info on the other cast members covers, etc)
August 7, 201212 yr Terence Winter On Wolf Of Wall Street Shooting starts tomorrow for Scorsese There isn't a whole lot of news in this snippet from Terence Winter, screenwriter of The Wolf Of Wall Street, who spoke to our Joe Cunningham recently about Boardwalk Empire. But he does give us a tiny bit of news, which is that Martin Scorsese's new film starts shooting tomorrow. "The Wolf of Wall Street, we’re actually very deep into prep on that and it starts shooting in New York on the 8th of August." He continued, "It’s the true story of a guy named Jordan Belfort, based on his memoir. Jordan was an extremely successful stock broker in the mid-'90s, when he was in his early 20s, making upwards of $50 million a year. He had his own brokerage firm; he sort of skirted some of the security laws and ended up going to jail, had a rollercoaster ride of a life. He got into just about every drug on the planet, just unbelievable. It’s the comic, tragic, at times horrifying story of this rise and fall of a Wall Street whizz kid, and it’s just not like any other movie involving that subject matter and it’s going to be terrific. "Leonardo DiCaprio stars in the film as Jordan. It was just an incredible book. I read it five or six years ago in less than 24 hours and I couldn’t put it down; the story is just unbelievable. It was a really fun script to write and I think it will be a terrific movie." Is now the perfect time to make it, we asked him? "Yes, there’s certainly a lot going on in the world. If you think the mid-'90s were corrupt, hold that up to what’s going on now or what’s been going on since then." http://www.empireonl...y.asp?NID=34819

August 7, 201212 yr Kat Tks for magazine article If their speculations have any truth to them, and there was a planned Leo/Vanity Fair /Dec issue, it could easily instead just focus on Django, as Leo does still have a December film release , and in it he does play a very bad, bad boy Also, tks, for information about Beach/tv show; I wasn't on any vacay, and I missed that news if it appeared earlier
