GATSB ads were prominent on the MuchMusic & AUX Channels. It features many of today's hot artists. Add in the fancy dresses, fancy cars & fancy places. Oh yeah - the chicks love Leo (you did notice who his girlfriends have been, no).
last minute gutcheck - the OW's that is- Both short.

Maybe $54.415M. :-) That was Ted, the #13 OW of 2012. Redford's Gatsby was #13 overall in 1974. :-) {nm}

One word - Who? (Seriously, I think he's a rapper, otherwise no idea - but then I probably couldn't name many other current artists)

Jay-Z produced the soundtrack for GATSB. Canadian Ads featured the music heavily. MuchMusic & AUX.

Not all chicks. Fancy Dress and Cars do nothing for me. The movie looks like all style and no substance. And I have no idea who Leo's

Jay-Z on the music side, Tobey Maguire helps (first big movie since the Spideys), Luhrmann helps (a lot of people loved Moulin Rouge). {nm}

Gatsby 1974 was a period piece THEN. :-) Redford was a big deal with women, Leo's like that today. {nm}

Now that analogy I get. Drooled over Redford then.

Not Gatsby movie, but the actor in general. The Sting - still one of my favorite movies of all time - and that's a soundtrack!!

The Sting would probably be on my Top 20 at least, maybe Top 10. {nm}

Long on Leo. Short on 'Weeple-Peeple-Eaters'. Nothing for 'Stuck \In The Mud'.

Holding fast with my predict of $48 to $50 for Gatsby, although things are looking much higher regarding Gatsby.

Was gonna say, Hell with the rest, but FWIW I'll go ahead and say that Mud goes up 40% to 5M, & Peeples makes it to $10M. $12M maybe.

Gatsby is a classic HSX undersell: highly commercial, but not appealing to most core HSX players. {nm}
