Any thoughts?
As for me, I guess Tobey and Dicaprio will make a great duet.
Also I heard this is actually a book, but I never heard of it before. Anyone has read it?

It's required reading in a lot of states.

You never heard of it before? The book is pretty much required reading for most high school English classes in America.

I'm excited for it. Leo is a great actor. Christmas is a bit far away from now, though.

It's one of my favorite books. Also this:

6 Year-Old on The Great Gatsby Wrote:I think it's a book about a haunted theme park and it stars a magical magic guy and he's good and evil and he's trying to get rid of the ghosts. And I think at the end, since it's haunted by a ghost, he tried to make the park go on fire and it did.

But I don't live in the US. Guess I forgot to said that.
I think I'll just go and read it before this comes out. I guess it'll give a better boost to the hype.

Loved the book. The casting seems a bit weird to me, but it looks like they'll do a good job with it.

Required reading in Ontario as well. Well, it's one of the books on the grade 11 book list.

Why do you guys keep thinking I'm from North America? Well yeah, I'm from North American Continent, but I'm a beaner as fúck.
The only books they required us to read in Middle School was Pedro Páramo and El Llano en Llamas.

I was just adding my knowledge, you have no flag so I don't assume where you're from.

I loathe George Orwell. 1984 and Animal Farm... ugh.
I really enjoyed Gatsby, but wow. It's pretty dang sad.

At least Tobey Maguire will have the brooding, existential role down. He was quite aloof in the Spiderman movies.

I Sparknoted the book once (NO IT WASN'T REQUIRED READING FOR HOMEWORK, I DID IT TO STUDY FOR THE AP LIT EXAM SINCE I NEVER READ IT).

I guess I should read it, but...damm I already know the plot.
