Great Scott Leonardo DiCaprio! You make the roaring 20's seem so... sexy/vapid!
Wunderbar.
We are BUZZING with energetic amore after seeing all the wickedness that is Baz Luhrman's The Great Gatsby!
The stylized flick based on F. Scott Fitzgerald's venerated classic seems stuffed with visual delights, super-talented actors (Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire, and The Cap) and will hopefully be JUST as pleasing as Romeo and Juliet.
Join the endless, boozy party (above)! And Check out the gilded promo poster (below)!
But, before you go see the movie, read the book! It's a life changer...

Back in April of this year we heard that Aussie film director Baz Luhrman was planning to work his magic on an adaptation of The Great Gatsby. Baz is known for his tackling of literary classics, he famously made a film version of Romeo + Juliet with Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes back in the 90′s and of course, most of you will remember his post modern version of Moulin Rouge. Today we have the first view of his latest work on the classic American novel. This lavish production stars Leo DiCaprio as the titular great one, Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway, Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan and Joel Edgerton as her husband, Tom. If this trailer is anything to go by, this movie is going to be a whole lot of fun and NOTHING like your high school teacher’s rendition of the great American novel.

Mr Luhrman is definitely known for adaptations and reworks of classics, this is his thing, so what a perfect classic to work off. I LOVE the novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, as I’m sure many of you do too, so you may be a little nervous to see what reworking and (Read more...)
Looking for the ULTIMATE summer at the beach?
For just $75,000 a month, you can stay at Leonardo DiCaprio's seven-bedroom, six-bathroom Malibu beach house!
We can think of a million better ways to spend $75,000, but we know some DiCaprio die hard is totally going to bite on this "deal".
We're not sure WHY he's renting it out, but clearly he's not going to be there and would rather make some easy money off of it.
As you'll see in pictures (below), the home features LOTS of natural sunlight, along with a backyard deck that leads right to the ocean.
We'd be pretty stoked to sleep in the same bed as DiCaprio (preferably with him in it! LOLz), but not for $75K! Would U shell out that much for a summer in Malibu?

Phew! We were really getting worried there for a sec!
Nick Stahl has been freaking everyone out ever since his estranged wife reported him missing.
Though some sources didn't think it was that big of a deal, others were fearing his new residence on Skid Row.
We were actually hoping for the best -- imagining he had gone all Leonardo DiCaprio a la The Beach.
But nope! He's just on his way to rehab... or so an email sent from his account says...
He promises friends he's only getting treatment and will be out of commission for the next 30 days. Some of those friends are still skeptical, though... hmmm....
By the way, his wife was NOT on that email chain, ha!

Festival de Cannes is finally underway and there are a TON of intriguing independent films for sale.
Harvey Weinstein purchased the last two Best Picture winners (The King’s Speech and The Artist) in Cannes and you can be sure he’s on the lookout for more!!
Martin Scorcese’s The Wolf of Wall Street is one of the biggest titles out there, with Leo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill helping tell the true story of a party-boy stockbroker who spent 22 months in jail.
Hmmm... Sounds fun!
There are a bunch of depressing period pieces, including Jennifer Lawrence’s Serena which sounds like a Hunger Games spin-off in North Carolina and also the Jeremy Renner flick American Dream, about Polish immigrant prostitutes in the '20s and the magicians who love them.
We aren't making this stuff up!
Hawkeye isn’t the only Avenger represented. Captain America Chris Evans stars in The Iceman, the true story of a notorious contract killer. The Hulk Mark Ruffalo stars next to Keira Knightley in the NYC set Can A Song Save Your Life?
And we’re TOTES excited to see ScarJo in Under the Skin, a Species rip-off about a murderous alien disguised as the (Read more...)
Oh no!
We were looking forward to seeing Sacha Baron Cohen take on a serious role in Quentin Tarantino's latest flim, but his press commitments for The Dictator created scheduling conflicts.
Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx and Christoph Waltz have been filming the epic western for months, but Cohen was not able to make his planned cameo appearance.
Total bummer, but his role is reportedly easily replaceable or perhaps unnecessary all together.
Even worse for the production is the news that Kurt Russell dropped out. No word on why the Escape From New York actor quit, but his role seemed like it was much more significant than Cohen's cameo. The film's synopsis names him as Ace Woody, the trainer who grooms slaves to battle each other for sport.
Who wouldn't want to be in a Tarantino movie? Russell's reasons must be pret-ty good for him to drop out of this high profile project.
What actor do U think should replace him?
