Every time I see a Wes Anderson movie trailer - Tenenbaums, Zissou, Rushmore, Fox, Darjeeling, and this one - I think, "That looks like a movie I'd really enjoy," yet I've never actually managed to see a single one of them.
I'd plan a Wes movie night, but I suspect that characteristic flavor might get a little stale by the end of a binge.


Do Rushmore at least. Great flick, very bittersweet and a lot of fun... to me it tastes a bit "Harold and Maude"-ish.

Oh god I'm looking forward to this now. Please be better than Darjeeling (and Zizou too, kinda) !!

Wes Anderson hasn't really made a decent film sine The Royal Tenenbaums, which is now 11 years ago! Hopefully this will be a return to form. When his movies are good, they're very good, but his output is pretty uneven.

Really? I'll admit that I'm pretty much alone in thinking that The Life Aquatic is a masterpiece (it's my favourite of Anderson's films), but The Darjeeling Limited was pretty well regarded and quite enjoyable, and Fantastic Mr. Fox was absolutely delightful. You didn't even like that one?


No, you are NOT alone!!! There are a handful of films that I will watch on a pretty regular basis and Life Aquatic is one of them. It's everything from hilarious awkwardness, to the settings, the sets, the odd dialog, the Portuguese Bowie covers, Bill Murray in general, the MILF quality of Anjelica Houston, and Michael Gambon's small part is just PERFECT. PERFECT I TELL YOU.

Esteban!! Esteban!! Esteban!!

I enjoyed Fox and it was better than either Darjeeling or Zissou. Whereas I saw Darjeeling in the cinema, and then entirely forgot it existed within a week, there was something about Zissou that stayed with me even though Tannenbaums and Rushmore are head and shoulders above it. (Rushmore is my favourite btw)

"made popular by Nico of Velvet Underground" wtf? I didn't even know that version existed. Jackson Browne's own is my favorite.


yeah, it was made popular through its use in a movie.. The Royal Tenenbaums I think? But same here, I like the original version best. TMOE did a pretty good job here though.

You're so welcome. The original is probably my favourite moment in cinema

I think the girl Tenenbaum was adopted.

I'm sorry to hear you hated it, ponce.

I thought that, in the end, it was a pretty up-lifting film.

The father saved his family, and that's what he wanted most.
