Fantastic Mr. Fox over 3 years ago

Personally, much like David said, Wes has yet to fail me. I enjoy all of his movies.
But i’m interested to see him do a stop motion movie. I just want to see how it will look. A trailer or something, you know?

Remake? over 3 years ago

Original oldboy was great. I’ve never read the manga but I’ve heard some of the crazy horrifying things in the movie weren’t in the manga, so maybe no incest?

Eagle vs shark? whats that?
And yes, No one can do Wes.

Oh and is it just me, but did you notice the special edition of Juno looks like the Eric Anderson art from Wes Anderson’s movies?
Maybe it’s just me.

Fantastic Mr. Fox over 3 years ago

adam-
personally, i enjoy the flight of the conchords. but i looked the movie up. Doesn’t look very good, man. So i’ll just take your advice, not watch it.

And yeah, when i saw it i was a little perplexed.
I wondered if Eric Anderson did it.
He didn’t…right? i doubt it. but you never know.

favourite scene from any film over 3 years ago

1. “The Royal Tenenbaums” When Richie kills himself and Needle in the Hay by Elliot Smith is played. By far one of the most intense (albeit depressing) scenes of any movie I’ve ever seen.
2. The beginning of fucking Lion king.
