Hey, Michael, thanks for sending over these storyboards, we're
super psyched to have you on board for
The Great Gatsby. We did have a couple of issues. Nothing major, just some... Well, let's just get right into it.
OPENING SCENE

Really spectacular opening. I suppose the original might be a tad dated, at this point. Now, instead of Gatsby and Daisy being separated from the general population by their considerable wealth, they'll be separated as a byproduct of them being the only property owners in an apocalyptic desert wasteland. And instead of having that fancy, eye-catching car, it looks like Tom will own a rocket-equipped school bus, which is equally memorable. Really great stuff.
MEETING DAISY

OK, this is really interesting. I get that you're trying to make Daisy seem like the most desirable woman ever, to justify the lengths to which Gatsby goes to win her affection, it just seems like you may be taking it a little too far. I worry because you've made Daisy such a strong, independent woman, it makes me wonder why she would need Tom to begin with. Also, is Tom Buchanan
in this movie? He's kind of a pretty big part of the book. I noticed that Daisy has a robot named "Tom-E." That can't be Tom, right?
Also, just for future reference, you don't... you don't really need a word bubble
