To commemorate the losing of my M-vatar (apparently me and @MasterofthePwn had the same color). I’m honored to have my one of a kind, hand drawn depiction of Eli Cash as the new Conman-vatar.
For those that don’t know, from the movie The Royal Tenanbaums:
everyone knows that Custer died at the battle of little big horn. What this book presupposes is…maybe he didn’t
That line never fails to crack me up. Owen Wilson.
The French Dispatch, the next movie by Wes Anderson, also with Bill Murray (and many others, incl Owen Wilson) in it, was supposed to come out a while ago, but delayed because of covid.
Wes Anderson is so weird. I don’t like full Wes Anderson. Didn’t care for Rushmore which might as well be 0 on the scale of Wes Anderson. 10 is The French Dispatch
French Dispatch is coming, but if this isn’t 10/10 Wes Anderson I don’t know what is.
How about the movie that came out 4 or 5 years ago about an Indian kid working as a bellhop at some old, fancy hotel. I liked that one, was it a Wes Anderson?
Have not seen Bottle Rocket but will check it out based on your recommendation. Loved both of the others and also enjoyed Moonrise Kingdom and The Life Aquatic.
Grand Budapest Hotel may be my favorite of all of his movies, though. F. Murray Abraham left me feeling just the right amount of sad at the end.
I think The Royal Tenenbaums and Rushmore are a notch above the rest. I don’t want to oversell Bottle Rockets. And it was the first Wes Anderson movie I saw, and I saw it when it came out 24 years ago.
But the best Wes Anderson is in the TV show “Catastrophe”
Chris: Right! What we seeing?
Rob: Oh, so I got us tickets to The Emancipation of Flyburton Crisp.
Chris: What?
Rob: It’s the new Wes Anderson.
Chris: No.
Rob: No? Just no?
Chris: Just no. What else?
Rob: Well, we could see that Adam Sandler movie, it starts at 8:10.
Chris (intensely): Let’s go
