How to write a Wes Anderson movie in five easy steps!

[Batutta]

1. A passionate eccentric--

2. Leads his kooky family and friends --

3. On a series of oddball adventures--

4. Gets his friends in trouble and alienates them--

5. But wins them back with one last crazy scheme--

 

[Chris Messineo]

I love his movies and I hope he keeps following the same formula.

Rushmore is one of my favorite movies, but after watching Fantastic Mr. Fox, which I enjoyed more than his previous few films, it's clear Wes only knows how to tell one story.

You forgot daddy issues.

I really liked a couple of his films.

Then I read this LA Times article.

Making it difficult for your crew, not cool.

Don't forget about his rampant fetish for Futura (the font):

I have no idea what that means, but I did think it sounded a bit UK-ish and sure enough. Still have no idea.

All I can think of now is that song '[SIZE=+2]Wee Deoch an Doris [/SIZE] '

Yep, I still have the record and can still hear that song... "A wee Deoch and Doris, a wee doech that's all, a wee deoch an doris, before we ga tae war...."

Stereotypical I know. But no more than 'Thai winkle-blowers' about'. hehe

Winkle Blowers? Did you say Winkle Blowers? lol. :beer:

//oops. I stand corrected...

Chorus
Just a wee deoch an doris, just a wee drop, that's all.
Just a wee deoch an doris afore ye gang awa.
There's a wee wifie waitin' in a wee but an ben.
If you can say, "It's a braw bricht moonlicht nicht",
Then yer a'richt, ye ken.

And just to be toally off topic...

not eh fan, brilliant.

i like rushmore and fantastic fox for art reasons but he's really never did anything im like WOW about.

people around here think he's a god.

 

[Sad Max]

*shrug* I don't know about the god-bit. I just enjoy his films for themselves. I guess his idiosyncrasies appeal to me.

 

[Ryan Patrick O'Hara]

I love his films. They balance humor, drama, and sometimes action to a proportion of really enjoyable cinema experience.

 

[spidey]

i mean where i live at. everyday some people i know just quote life aquatic or fantastic fox ... like in every convo.

 

[Drew Ott]

I love Wes Anderson. The Life Aquatic is one of my favorite films.

This scene is one of my favorites ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZ8U9t4MgN8
