    2:11 right when I skip this commercial my water pump went out in my pond. I'm pretty sure it's the circuit breaker though because I plug my cell phone charger into a main outlet and it's not charging so. 7:11 I'm going to look into that and get back to you #RobertLustcalled 🐯 if I have an electrical problem that would be upsetting and it quite the coincidence considering someone just tried to sell me insurance on my electrical systems through a new energy supplier out of Dublin Ohio. 0:42 that's the answer to everything according to the AI computer from #hitchhikersguidetothegalaxy I actually hear a generator running so I'm pretty sure that my power is out again. That happens here all the time I'm starting to think that AEP is responsible. 4:04 irresponsible is what I meant because there's no reason my power should go out this often at my house. ##BuuRN I'm going to write the paper about this and y'all are going to get fired. The energy supplier actually isn't in charge of the line that is handled by AP. I said AEP I live in Columbus Ohio on the Southside.

This is why so often untrained artists become the next big thing, because they are able to ignore the trappings of the rules of generations before. It's interesting to see how in the first few years of the 60's the musical establishment hated the Beatles with a passion - before their style cemented itself as the cornerstone of popular music in the 20th century, and then they all suddenly saw the genius. Whatever Wes does, it clearly works for his viewers. Calling his viewers dumb or uneducated in 'style' just kind of negates the purpose of cinema, to be enjoyable.

    I like that Wes's movies are like a child's version of very adult ideas and concepts. It just takes the complicated nature out and shows how how simple things can be. My favorite is probably Moonrise Kingdom, which is both a coming of age story and a sad adults trying to make sense of their lives story. Not much else beyond that, in my opinion, since he does keep things simple to keep things moving. But I think his stuff is fun.

    I know it's been 2 years but wth... I'm not sure what you mean by keeping things simple. In Darjeeling LTD and the royal tenenbaums he portrays many complex and layered emotions/problems with the lives of the characters. I guess you could say he makes them kinda obvious about the characters, in other words, simple to recognize. I just felt like that wasn't a fair distillation of his work.

    The Grand Budapest Hotel is probably my favorite film, and Wes Anderson by far my favorite director. His films are not just stunningly beautiful for aesthetic purposes, but the style of the world itself feels like a character. It is like a modern day fairy tale. The characters are absurd and over the top, and yet believable and relatable. It is insane to blow up a shark with dynamite, but we can all relate to the pain of losing someone important. I for one would do anything to get back together with the girl I love, even though I know it would destroy me. This lost love was like the love the characters in Moonrise Kingdom felt. Enchanting. And yet is was as toxic in the end as the dynamic of the Tenenbaum's. I know, like Zero and M. Gustave do, that this time has past but I too am unable to let go of the memories of better days. It hurts me to see her with someone else, and it makes me as crazy as Max in Rushmore. I hope that I will soon let go of the past and move on like the brothers did in the Darjeeling Limited. Like a fairy tale Anderson's films make clear that this story is not real life. No effort is made to hide the camera movement or make the color palet look like what I see when I peek outside my window. But that's the point. We are looking at a film, a piece of art. Nobody really believes a wolf blew away a house with 3 little pigs in it, but the moral of the story can be just as true. The themes of friendship, redemption and loss hit home because Anderson is an absolute master of his craft. The unique visual style and expert writing work in harmony to create a visceral experience that creeps in unnoticed through the jokes, gags and silliness. On first viewing I often have this weird feeling. Why am I crying over a silly caricature of a sailor pondering if the huge shark that killed his friend still remembers him? I can't really place it, and that shows how good Anderson is at his craft. He knows exactly what he is doing, playing with our subconscious rather than trying to explain everything. Show don't tell. I wish I was as good in my profession as Wes.

    The podcast Unspooled framed it in a way that made me appreciate his films more (I already enjoyed them): He's basically making movie versions of dioramas, like Margo in The Royal Tennenbaums. You're always looking in from the outside from one angle (like you mentioned with his flat camera work), and everything is picture perfect and of one style that fits together. I see complaints about his movies like someone complaining that dioramas or miniature landscapes or doll houses, etc., are too kitschy or not realistic. That's the point, and maybe it's not the style you like, but it's silly to complain about things that are obviously very intentional choices. It's not like he's suddenly going to change things.

    Wes Anderson is also known for taking inspiration from some excellent sources, always applying his own trademark into new perspectives and scenarios. The man isn't a vain edgy hipster who alludes to false interest; he is truly well-read, and his films have real nuance. Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums: the novels and short stories of J.D. Salinger The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou: the documentaries of Jacques-Yves Cousteau The Darjeeling Limited: the films of Satyajit Ray Fantastic Mr. Fox: the book by Roald Dahl The Grand Budapest Hotel: everything Stefan Zweig ever wrote and his own life story. I'd say Fantastic Mr. Fox is the film that first proved his craft could truly meet his vision.

    I know the cinematography of Anderson's films is constant throughout all of his films, as well as his often times blunt dialogue. But I think each film has a different atmosphere despite having many of the fundamental Anderson traits. Grand Budapest is one of the most hilarious comedies I've ever seen and is probably his best work. Life Aquatic is a really good film if you just want to watch what life is like from the perspective of someone in love with his boat and the sea. Also, it's one of those rare films where I feel like I don't need to jump around from location to location. I can just take it all in. But if I had to compare the two films, I'd say the former feels like a love letter to 1920's silent films and the latter feels like one to those strangely mature children's books we used to grow up reading. Two completely different tones, but done with a lot of the same tools. I think Anderson's innovation, in that way, is the reason why he's such a magnificent director.

    Dope....serious...and thoughtful analysis. A long-time Wes Anderson fan...I bought Bottle Rocket on DVD before most of these others came out, kind of fan... But I have wondered....what this video is questioning. Do I merely love some stylistic tricks...or is there a deeper reason I love his films? Yes, I love the style. It is as aesthetically pleasing as a Marlboro box...by scientific design. Thirds galore, to the photographer or cinematographer. Color palette-wise, unknown tricks to me, but they draw me in. The deadpan humor...absolutely delightful. The melancholy melodrama mixed with a peak of crisis...obviously a good tactic if you think about it...albeit we may not have been aware of a formulaic convention until the 4th or 5th movie, or the 2nd or 3rd if you're extremely arrogant and cocky that you are a savant mensa material. Please tell me if I'm wrong. I'm not trying to be cool or advanced, I'm not trained in film structure or technique..I'm just being honest.

    I’m going to continue enjoying his work. I never remember what his movies are about if you ask me a few months later… I just retain a memory of something delicious and nostalgic. Like candy I remember from my childhood, even if I didn’t know what it was made of. His messages are universal, uncontroversial, repetitive, beautifully wrapped in visuals that you want to keep afterwards. I enjoy it and I forget what exactly it was, but I’m always glad to see he made a new one and I’m going to watch it, too - to the same effect, I assume. It’s okay to just enjoy things, you know. Whether they are dumb or deep. Joy is rare.

    I'm glad someone was able to stay awake through them and provide meaningful feedback. The shots may be well laid out but they all seem so similar that you stop paying attention. The nonstop use of the deadpan monotone deliveries helps lull you to sleep. Even during these violent scenes you are in that half asleep coma hoping that at some point you discover the deeper meaning behind everything. Was this deep or dumb? is often the question you are asking yourself after viewing 20 minutes of one of his films. It seems like it should deliver a message, make a statement, or have some profound resolution in the end. If you understand the use of his the medium you will view him as deep. Those who walk away thinking this is 2 hours they will never get back will say dumb.
