IT DID WORK OUT PRETTY WELL FOR TRENT REZNOR:  Jay-Z will be scoring Baz Luhrmann's upcoming The Great Gatsby, following a first trailer prominently featuring "No Church In The Wild" off Watch The Throne.  This solidifies my initial impression that the movie is almost certainly a contender for "Hottest Mess of 2013."

  1. So far, either that or Oz for me.

  2. Oz doesn't have the aspiration to be anything more than just a reasonably fun time at the movies. Gatsby, on the other hand, seems to be desperately trying to Say Something Important, which, IMHO, makes it more of a hot mess.

  3. Oh, I don't know; the Oz trailers seem to be weirdly self-important for a Raimi movie. If I had to rank them, Car Chase Gatsby would be ahead, but I think Oz has potential for this.

    Guys it looks insane, but possibly in a delightfully over the top insane sort of way. I'm looking forward to it.
