Rate The Last Movie you Watched
Bottle Rocket (1996). Finished my quest to watch all of Wes Anderson’s films with his debut feature. Luke and Owen Wilson play a pair of loser friends trying to become master criminals. Life happens instead. Anderson’s least Andersony-movie. But you can still tell who’s the director five minutes in. Owen Wilson co-wrote this and he clearly knew that his strength is playing annoying fuck ups early on. ⅗ stars.
Homegrove The Phoenician Scheme looks like the end of the road for Wes Anderson - the trailer is just all too much. I don’t think I can bear to watch it.
I struggle with Wes Anderson these days as well. Can’t bring myself to hit play on asteroid city or any of those shorts on netflix. Have been tempted to rewatch darjeeling and moonrise kingdom.
Not really gonna beat TGBH is he?
Never really liked any Wes Anderson film tbh. Fantastic Mr Fox was ok I suppose.
I liked The Life Aquatic with Steve Zizzou.
Cheers!
Snr absolutely hates The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Cheers!
Moonrise Kingdom, Royal Tennenbaums, The Grand Hotel Budapest are all excellent - French Dispatch was the beginning of the end for me

If I’m being honest, he kinda lost me with Grand Budapest and just can’t bring myself to rewatch to prove myself wrong.
Isle of Dogs was great, so was Fantastic Mr. Fox. Nothing touches The Royal Tennenbaums, that movie is GOAT.
I’m very sorru for your loss. Your mother was a terribly attractive woman.

Attack the Block (2011). Aliens attack a council estate in South London. Bunch of kids who start the movie by mugging Jodie Whitekar fight back.
I loved this. Laughed a lot. The aliens look like shit, but I feel like this had the budget of the director’s credit card so I’m willing to forgive them for lack of funds for proper CGI. At least the design is original.
“Well, ’ere, lads, you’ve discovered a species hitherto unknown to science, quite possibly non-terrestrial in origin, and you kicked its fuckin’ head in!”
Dick Van Dyke was in it?!
There Will Be Blood finally re released in the cinemas this week, gold class as well. Been waiting too long for a PTA joint on the big screen.
Going tomorrow with the missus, might go again on Sunday night.
