Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox is great. Still only in limited release, Anderson’s sixth feature officially ends his frustrating creative downturn.

I picked up the Criterion edition of The Royal Tenenbaums for The Husband because I had heard it was a good comedy but didn't give it to him because, as I read a bit about it, it just didn't seem to be his "type" of comedy -too much tragedy in the midst of it all, maybe. I ended up putting it in the stack with all the other to-be-watched DVDs, and the Younger Son picked it tonight. We liked...

So, I’m all excited about Wes Anderson’s 6th film, Fantastic Mr. Fox . I mean, I’ve already seen it, but am still super stoked about it. It’s totally awesome and will easily win the statue for best animated film. It’s occurred to me though that maybe some people aren’t as familiar with the writer/director as they should be. So, i thought I’d remind you. This...

Jeez, I haven't seen the original Bottle Rocket short in 15 or 16 years. L.M.Kit Carson, who helped Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson with the funding to complete it (and who got it into Sundance and showed the short to Polly Platt, etc.) showed me a tape of it, as I recall. And this isn't even the whole thing....

Fantastic Mr Fox It's Dahl Good Trailers & Mo | Official Website Post- Royal Tenenbaums , Wes Anderson kept trying to make something different, but basically kept making baum clones, one on the high seas and the other in India. It pained us to do so, but after the limited Darjeeling Limited we had purty much given up on the cutesy world of WA. Enuff was certainly enuff (esp the overuse of Owen...
