Baz Luhrmann to direct The Great Gatsby?

Uh, I dunno, Baz. I mean... no one's been able to do a good movie version of it until now, what makes you so sure you can do it? Please stick to your batshit crazy musicals!

(Yes, I still need to see Australia, but judging by the attention it's getting this awards season/the reviews, maybe not so much)
