The important in lesson Leonardo Di Caprio taught us: do not date girls who are names after flowers, or you will end up at the bottom of some form of water.

FIRST OF ALL, That pink suit slays.

“The way he looked at her, the way all girls want to be looked at..” “By Leonardo DiCaprio?” Yes 🥴

4:49 “rich girls don’t marry poor boys” comes from the author, fitzgerald’s, personal life. it wasn’t in the book but i loved that they included it in the movie

On behalf of all High School Juniors, we thank you

The call wasn't from Daisy, but Nick. That's why the sence is so sad, he died happy thinking Dasiy loved him...when it was just Nick. In the end Nick was the only one that loved him, his only real friend. I also don't feel you completely understand Great Gatsby and that why you "sined" some parts.

9:20 one of the greatest paragraphs in modern American literature: "He took out a pile of shirts and began throwing them, one by one, before us, shirts of sheer linen and thick silk and fine flannel, which lost their folds as they fell and covered the table in many-colored disarray. While we admired he brought more and the soft rich heap mounted higher - shirts with stripes and scrolls and plaids in coral and apple-green and lavender and faint orange, and monograms of Indian blue. Suddenly, with a strained sound, Daisy bent her head into the shirts and began to cry stormily."

this movie made nick so in love with gatsby it literally could be a gay romance drama.

Tobey McGuire was basically his Peter Parker character in The Great Gatsby.

Damn, I actuallly really liked that movie, am I the only one?

Daisy was not the person calling at the end of the film! It was clearly reveiled to be Nick calling Gatsby's line from Wall street while he was at work that day. It's an interesting twist because Gatsby's last ever thought was that Daisy had finally called him, when in fact she never did! It was Nick!

Gatsby is a very hopeful person, every party he made and every time he looked at the green light he was hopeful that daisy would come to him one day, and what I loved as well was that when he died from the shot he was "hopeful" that it was daisy. But what really saddened me was that instead it was Nick, the only one that actually cared, we find out that daisy did love Gatsby but was too much of a coward to care. I'm quite angry though that nick is SO OVERLOOKED he is like the gem of the movie except the story isn't really about him he is behind the scenes seeing what's happening writing the biography about it in his head. I really really REALLY LOVE the way this movie feels like a dream, while watching the movie to me I was trying to figure out what was happening but at the same time I knew what was happening, the film had a feeling of it being too good to be true if that makes sence, the backgrounds, the clothes, the camera views and even the language they spoken. This to me is a very well made movie that stands out with the book, btw the cover of the book is fabulous Thanks for coming to my ted talk and have a ghost hug if you read all of it (you can't feel it but its there :) )

Me: wow, leo sounds alot like Tobey Maguire in this narration *Cuts to Tobey* Me: oh

5:20 lmao I wrote an essay in my English class on Nick possibly being a closet gay with love for Gatsby i got a 97 on it

"Are things about to get Erotic up in here?'Cause I could MURDER some Gatsby/Carraway fan fic". *This man knows,he knows* We can see it.

I know this is supposed to be funny, but majority of the “issues” of the movie are part of the book’s plot.

The sins were fair but this is the type of movie that gives me a magical feeling with the scenery and soundtrack so anything wrong with this movie is highly overlooked

It was very telling that Jay-Z was an executive producer on this. No joke.

Quick note: they don't seem to explain or allude to it much in the movie, but Nick actually grew up fairly well off, in terms of other families. He was also Daisy's cousin, which probably helped with finances (not to mention his obviously strong friendship with Gatsby, even if it were just to meet Daisy again.)

I know it had some problems, but what I liked most about the movie was that it was almost perfectly accurate to the book, complete with directly quoted dialogue and narration. It’s so rare to find those kinds of movies

#1: Why didn't Gatsby, someone of extreme wealth, have any guards at his estate?

You could say gatsby’s car was a HIT with the ladies!

"Light the candles one by one, then we snuff them, because it's fun. By the time of morning sun, if we are lucky, we'll be done." I couldn't stop laughing at that part. XD

These are my favorite parts "Asking another dudes wife to dance is just rude and if you ask my wife to dance at a public event, I will shove a nearby large object up the hole from which you pee ". "LOUD NOISES" "What, never? No,never! What, never...? Well, hardly everrrrrrrr!" *DEAD*

10:13 "Light the candles one by one, then we snuff them, because it's fun. By the time of morning sun, if we are lucky, we'll be done." This right here shows that Cinenasins is pure comedy XD

I love how this is not a typical CinemaSins stale and cynical narration. The excitement in his voice when he is talking about the pillows is pure gold.

I was getting suspicious when they hardly sinned “old sport” but I realised that they would have to do a bonus round.

9:53 to 10:20. The funniest nearly 30 seconds this channel has had. I watched and rewound it bout 5 times. God bless you cinemasins

You forgot that its 170 sins in 1922 (event of the film), so if you calculate inflation rate in 2019 it will be 2557.85 sins.

Daisy was the OG THOT

man, he should’ve took a sin off at 4:53. THAT WAS THE GREATEST MOMENT IN THE MOVIE!

The sin about the guy putting out the candles snapping had me slapping my knee. Had to edit this comment because this is the funniest EWW ever. "Gatsby made her blossom like a flower" - Awwhhhhhhheeeewwwwww

9:53 Freaking lost it with the commentary about the excess pillows and candles 😂

"I see Bill Cosby's grandmother grew up on Long Island." OMFG I died.

I love it when a book is translated almost verbatim. Visually stunning. I love it!

16:21 Inaccurate sin? It shows him in his office answering a phone call at the start of the movie. He works in the bond business. It says this at the beginning.

Based on the book, there is a theory that Nick is gay. Because when he's drunk he briefly mentions a naked guy in his bed. Nothing to do with the video, just something that I thought was interesting.

The candle-snuffing dude's mantra might be your best work yet lmao

No-one ever seems to ask whether Daisy is even worthy of the devotion shown her...she's not fyi. There's your high school essay topic, don't use the movie btw

correction, it’s Nick who calls at the end of the movie, not Daisy!

The "tale as old as time" part had me WHEEZING

In the book Great Gatsby it takes like a week for Nick to meet jay

I actually really enjoyed reading Gatsby so I do have a deep love for this movie in my heart, even if parts aren’t completely accurate or exciting

“He looked at her the way all girls want to be looked at” “By Leonardo DiCaprio?” Yes

"i could murder some Gatsby/Carraway fan fic" Yeah you and me both. If ya need the link to a really good one Jeremy I'll hook you up.

OOOH WEEE! HAVEN'T HAD A BONUS ROUND IN A MINUTE. GOOD SHOW JEREMY, YOU OLD SPORT!

the yelling scene is important because it indicated Gatsby's status. A gentleman will never lose his temper, even at the worst times. However, Gatsby went haywire after being pushed, showing Daisy that he is only a commoner, and despite his money, will never be a noble. Daisy was only in love with Gatsby because he was everything she dreamed he was: noble, handsome, in love with her. But when the charade faded, she came to, and realized the truth. That's why she left.

F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote one of the most beautiful passages I've ever read: "Sleep - real sleep, the dear, the cherished one, the lullaby. So deep and warm the bed and the pillow enfolding me, letting me sink into peace, nothingness - my dreams now, after the catharsis of the dark hours, are of young and lovely people doing young, lovely things, the girls I once knew, with big brown eyes, real yellow hair. In the fall of '16 in the cool of the afternoon I met Caroline under a white moon. There was an orchestra - Bingo-Bango Playing for us to dance the tango And the people clapped as we arose For her sweet face and my new clothes. Life was like that, after all; my spirit soars in the moment of its oblivion; then down, down deep into the pillow..."

“Candles were like hold my beer”😂😂😂. Fave sins vid so far

I knew the 'Old Sport Bonus Round' was coming.

1:08 Leo explained it. Adding hip hop to this movie was a key to let the viewers relate and feel closer to the film. I think it was a great idea, I really enjoyed it. In my opinion it suits the movie well.

favorite line: “and the candles were like “hold my beer”.”

feels like a long time since we got a "bonus round"... I've missed them!

don't forget that they were having a conversation and decided to drive to a another location just to continue the conversation

The rich girls don’t marry poor boys thing comes from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s own life. Nice reference

I love this movie, idc what anyone says. I know how to appreciate the art style the director was going for, the symbolism, and the music I think was great. The party scene is absolutely spectacular. Also Leonardo DiCaprio is my favorite actor and Tobey is one of my favorites (Mainly because of Spider-Man) so that just makes the movie even better.

“Also, one of the reasons this movie is 2 hours and 22 minutes long is that it takes 30 minutes for the title character to show up.” AT LEAST THAT’S TRUE TO THE BOOK. JAY GATSBY DIDN’T SHOW UP FOR LIKE....FIVE CHAPTERS OF THE BOOK. (And one of them was just name dropping and it was insufferable) Also that comment about the Gatsby/Carraway fanfic made me laugh. And if there isn’t an “Old Sport” bonus round, I will be sad.

"Will you still love me when I'm no longer Young and Beautiful"🎤💖

Fair but the narration is actually really important to understanding nick as a character and a fundamental part of understanding the book and the story. the film missed out a lot of Nick being overly judgemental as well which was also important in the book as he stated at the start that he was basically not judgmental and totally honest

In the book it takes like 2 chapters for Gatsby to make a real appearance. He makes a VERY SMALL appearance in Chapter 1 where Nick sees him for a split second then Gatsby just vanishes

“You obviously never met the dog from Up.” Edit: You obviously never met any dog ever.

“All style no substance” best 4 words to describe this film.

"There hasn't been ONE shot of Nick being gainfully employed in this whole thing!" -- unless you wanna count all three of the scenes of Nick being gainfully employed in his stockbrokers office.

This was the most I laughed at a cinema sins. I have an English test tomorrow on this book..

*Another Thursaday and another CinemaSins video that is not Shawshank Redemption.* *Accept the challenge!*

This was one of the funniest CinemaSins that I have watched! Please never stop! "God Damn the Pillows I cannot stress enough how many there are way too many - HOLY HELL LOOK AT ALL THOSE CANDLES!!!!!!!

Oops- someone forgot to mention the ‘sax’ player didn’t have his hands in the right spot while ‘playing’ it at the party daisy went to. I’ve played sax for 6 years so that was a pretty big deal to me 😂 He had his right hand at the top and his left hand was somewhere I hope lol

I didn't mind this film. The vintage take on the opening logos was a nice touch and the techno-style music along with Gatsby's supercharged car gave the movie a dieselpunk feel. I don't think many people actually understood the artistic statement being made in those small details.

12:53 Jordan says in her tea discussion with Nick that Gatsby's parties were thrown in hopes that Daisy would notice and/or would show up randomly one night.

Read this book in class this year. Watched this movie too Everyone kept saying this was bull cuz Nick and Gatsby are clearly gay for each other Ya know who was the strongest supporter of this theory? The teacher

9:53 I just lost it. As soon as I heard "Screw all these-" I saw the excessive candles and was like "yea ik where this is going" Then it took a turn and he said pillows and I was taken aback but I knew to wait. It was coming. At that sin, I died of laughter.

Last year, this book made up a major portion of my AP class test. I didn’t read it, but I watched this video, and passed with a B.

You missed a sin for one of the only era-appropriate songs played being Let's Misbehave - a song that didn't exist until 1928/29, despite the film being set in 1922. Oh, since I'm here - sin The Prestige.

Does this mean that you are going to do Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet?

10:03 *And the candles were like "hold my beer"!!!!*

This movie is actually really good and based off of the book. I could dissect why every sin isn't actually a sin

The dog from "Up" has no other opponent for being "the single most hopeful person, he's in a category all to himself!😂🐕

Jeremy, YOU are responsible for me saying "Hibbidy hoobidie da lala foo!" every time there's a lapse in the conversation, and you owe my family an apology.

“Let’s all drunk-drive to Manhattan and get a hotel room so we can have the exact same conversation we’re having right now- and I’m starting to think this isn’t a very good book” -Peter Griffin

It's obvious that you weren't looking at the underlining themes. Reading then watching this in class while having discussions GREATLY changes how you view it. Everyone in my class absolutely loved this book and the movie. You're missing out if you hate on this story. The reason why the scenes and dialogue is so choppy is because of the book. That was just the writing style of the time lol.

Every thing wrong with The Great Gatsby Old sport

I was just waiting for the old sport montage and it made me so happy when it finally came

9:24 I'm so glad you felt the same way about that scene as I did. That scene is simply beautiful.

I was half expecting Nick to pop over to Gatsby’s house with food and say “Pizza Time”

Prediction for next week: The Nun and Mary Poppins Returns

GASP HEAVY BREATHING LONGING PINING PANTING

“It takes 30 minutes for the title character to show up” Someone hasn’t read the book…. Gatsby shows up midway through Chapter 3

I LOVE this movie, but this has got to be the funniest Cinema Sins I’ve seen yet! 😂

Sins guy is into Hamilton. Couldn't have scripted it better myself

Dear Lord that's a lot of "old sports" lmao

I don't know if CinemaSins has done the Leo DiCapprio version of "Romeo and Juliet", but then again every single shot in that movie is a sin.

Had the producer read the book, he'd know that the saying was "Old SPICE." (F. Scott Fitzgerald, working in an ad agency, had written The Great Gatsby as a shaving commercial giveaway).

the movie takes place in 1922. Rhapsody in blue came out in 1924, and yet we hear it during the party.

Nobody: Gatsby: oLd SpOrT!

Finally watched this. And let me say, I've been imagining Nick and Jay together for decades now, ever since I read the book. It coulda been awesome.

I would be lying if I said I didn't squeal at the Hamilton reference

I like how "Old sport" gradually becomes "Gold spore" through the bonus round.

So you're saying you want Gatsby x Nick fanfics? Y'know what, I'm not gonna look that up

Leo really showed us how much he loves bodies of water being super symbolic in a movie where he dies for love, and we just let him get away with it.

Although, I didn’t enjoy the book as much. This was a brilliant movie. Leonardo and Carey Mulligan were amazing in this. It’s a movie I could watch over and over, much like Lord of the Rings. The ending is one of the most heartbreaking to me.
