'Logical' Downpour During Gatsby Red Carpet in Cannes
15 May 2013 3:41 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
The Great Gatsby Cannes 2013: Leonardo DiCaprio on logically soggy red carpet Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby opened the 2013 Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday evening. The Gatsby red carpet looked like a cross between the Academy Awards (Steven Spielberg, Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire) and Dancing with Stars (loud music, with a handful of dancers performing in ’20s-costumes). (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio on the 2013 Cannes Film Festival’s The Great Gatsby red carpet.) On the Cannes Film Festival’s video of the Great Gatsby red carpet, you can watch Carey Mulligan getting nearly decapitated by a take-no-prisoners umbrella; Leonardo DiCaprio telling an interviewer, "I can’t hear a word you’re saying," and then walking on as if said journalist was invisible; and Tobey Maguire getting called, "Eh, Tobee!" But what do we learn from those brief interviews? That being in Cannes is "exciting" (DiCaprio, Maguire) and "meaningful" (Luhrmann, »

Gatsby Opening Weekend B.O.: Ahead or Behind Titanic?
13 May 2013 7:02 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Leonardo DiCaprio The Great Gatsby movie box office: DiCaprio’s second biggest opening ever — but trailing Titanic in ticket sales The Great Gatsby movie adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel earned $50.08m at the North American box office this past weekend, including $3.25 million from late Thursday night showings, according to weekend box-office actuals found at Box Office Mojo. Despite mostly poor reviews — The Great Gatsby has a 32% approval rating and 5.6/10 average among Rotten Tomatoes‘ top critics — the Baz Luhrmann-directed take on the love story between Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jay Gatsby and Carey Mulligan’s Daisy Buchanan far surpassed the expectations of both distributor Warner Bros. and box-office pundits. In fact, The Great Gatsby trailed only Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man 3, which collected $72.52 million at the domestic box office this past weekend. (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby.) Partly thanks to 3D surcharges and a strong female contingent of ticket-buyers, »

Gatsby to Become DiCaprio's Second Biggest Debut Weekend Ever?
11 May 2013 8:51 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Leonardo DiCaprio The Great Gatsby movie weekend box office: DiCaprio’s second biggest opening ever? (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby, with Carey Mulligan) Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Jay Gatsby in Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby movie adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic 1920s novel. A risky move? Well, if so, it has clearly paid off. Although The Great Gatsby will not top the North American box office this weekend, it’ll land in a remarkably (and surprisingly) strong second slot. (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby movie adaptation, with Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan.) Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man 3 will easily lead the domestic box-office charge with approximately $65-70m, after plummeting 71% on Friday, compared to the previous week. True, opening-day Friday also included the box-office take from Thursday late night showings, but, for comparison’s sake, The Avengers was down 64% during that same time frame. »

Luhrmann's Glitzy Gatsby Adaptation Way Overperforming at Us/Canada box office?
11 May 2013 1:55 AM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
The Great Gatsby 2013 movie box office: Way overperforming? (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby) The Great Gatsby 2013 movie adaptation directed by Baz Luhrmann, and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan will not top the North American box office this weekend. That’s the not-so-good news. But then again, no one was expecting The Great Gatsby to soar past Robert Downey Jr’s special-effects-laden Iron Man 3. True, both movies are in 3D, but … maybe if Jay Gatsby’s hair gel were capable of blowing up all of New England or something, then it’d have had a chance. (Updated The Great Gatsby weekend box office estimate.) Now, the (really) good news: The Great Gatsby, with the assistance of 3D surcharges and a large percentage of female ticket-buyers, may open north of $50m at 3,525 North American locations, according to early, rough estimates found at Deadline.com. As per Deadline’s "sources, »

The Weinstein Co. Secures International Rights To Kite Starring Samuel L. Jackson And India Eisley
11 May 2013 12:20 AM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
For those of you that had Kite release before your time, it's an incredibly violent, gory, graphic, sexual (hentai) anime that debuted back in 1998 which followed teenage school girl Sawa and her attempts to unravel the mystery of her parent's murder. Fate brings her together with two detectives who train her to become a ruthless killing machine under the pretense of finding the killer of her mother and father. But that's only the beginning of the story and things take a very atypical (and far worse) turn once Sawa's tragic backstory is established. The live-action film stars nineteen-year-old India Eisley (Underworld: Awakening, Maleficent) as Sawa, sixty-four-year-old Samuel L. Jackson (The Avengers, Captain America: The Winter Soldier) as Karl Aker (Akai) and eighteen-year-old Callan McAuliffe (The Great Gatsby) as Oburi. If you've seen the original anime, you know why the ages are important here. Filming just »
Gatsby Review Pt.2: DiCaprio as the Next Grant?
10 May 2013 10:24 AM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
The Great Gatsby Movie: Leonardo DiCaprio: ‘Heir apparent to Cary Grant’ (photo: Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan in The Great Gatsby) [See previous post: "The Great Gatsby 2013: Leonardo DiCaprio, Baz Luhrmann Shine; Story Essence Lost."] The role of the enigmatic, larger-than-life Gatsby would seem a difficult one to cast in an age when movie stars have been replaced by whatever pre-digested superhero is easiest to market and promote. Consider us lucky that one of the only movie stars left in American film makes a terrific Gatsby. There are moments when Leonardo DiCaprio, who previously worked with Luhrmann in 1996’s Romeo + Juliet, looks the heir apparent to Cary Grant. Our first head-on shot of Gatsby shows the character as the very embodiment of America’s unbridled optimism. His reputation as a good-time Charlie is surpassed only by his opacity. To the hundreds of guests who excitedly converge upon his bedazzled mansion, he’s a glamorous riddle, a thrower of epic house parties who might have »

Last Lap: Don’t Expect Gwyneth Paltrow At Next Year’s Met Gala
9 May 2013 3:43 PM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »
Penn Badgley opens up about life after Blake Lively, Kate Moss bares all, and fans meet Leonardo DiCaprio’s younger counterpart in The Great Gatsby.
Despite the dazzling fashion and glamour, Gwyneth Paltrow is so over the Met Gala. She complained that this year’s star-studded affair was too hot and too crowded. Well, if she’s forfeiting future invitations, there are quite a few (thousand) people who’d gladly go in her place. [USA Today] Gossip Girl co-stars Blake Lively and Penn Badgley remained professional on set after their breakup, but Badgley implies there was an underlying unease following their three-year romance. He also admits that he didn’t send Lively a wedding gift when she married Ryan Reynolds last year.

Weekend Box Office Ahead: Great Gatsby overshadowed by Iron Man 3
9 May 2013 11:01 AM, PDT | Upcoming-Movies.com | See recent Upcoming-Movies.com news »
Warner Bros. Pictures' The Great Gatsby opens in 3,535 theaters this weekend, and could turn in anywhere north of $35-$40 million from its debut weekend. Of course, Disney distributed Marvel big boy Iron Man 3 is definitely topping the box office charts, and should gross over $75 million on its second weekend run. Baz Luhrmann directs Gatsby's very-talented cast of Leonard DiCaprio, Cary Mulligan, Tobey Maguire, Joel Edgerton, Isla Fisher and Elizabeth Debicki. The film is not an easy project to make, by any means, and not one to receive remarkable reviews for the most part. In fact, Upcoming Movies' Steve Ramos gave it a slightly above-average score, while Anders Wright posted a below par rating in his review. The film's holding a 44% "Rotten" score at Rottentomatoes.com. Luhrmann and Craig Pearce adapt the novel from F. Scott Fitzgerald for the screen. The cast also includes Gemma Ward, Callan McAuliffe, Amitabh Bachchan, »
