A lot of theater companies (like AMC) are hosting marathons of The Dark Knight trilogy on Friday, starting with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, and then leading up to the midnight premiere of The Dark Knight Rises.

Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby has a lot of big names so far. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Jay Gatsby alongside Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire, Joel Edgerton, and Isla Fisher. The role of Myrtle’s (Fisher) husband has now been filled by Jason Clarke (The Wettest County in the World). He looks like a perfect fit: character [...]
