+S&S Pictures Missed the point, people tend to dehumanize - children, kind of like the opposite of how we anthropomorphize animals and even objects. Yes they are children, but children are developing humans with developing emotions and a lack of experience. Their feelings aren't any less valid, they're just contained in a person learning how to deal with them. Many adults tend to dismiss this and unwittingly cause harm.

I swear I watched this movie like 800 times
When we watch a Wes Anderson movie, we are inside his head. When we listen to a Wes Anderson interview we are watching a man outside his head no longer in his comfort zone.
Whatever Wes turns his attention to turns into magic
There are films that leave the watcher feeling entertained, and then there are others that leave the watcher simply feeling. This one is in the latter category.
I could listen to Wes Anderson talking about film-making all day.
Watched many of his movies. This is the first time I've heard him speak. My respect only grows.
They say you can't go back. But for those of us who grew up with Sam and Suzy, this story is absolutely heart wrenchingly spot on. Makes me homesick every time I see it, but it's one heck of a trip.

It could mean that in some cases, but in other cases it just means they are bad at speaking or are in fact less intelligent (it's not like you are more eloquent the dumber you are). There are a lot of really intelligent people that say intelligent things without stuttering. Some people have a really high verbal intelligence and are able to speak quickly while also thinking about what they are saying at the same time
@samaraisnt

Stutters are actually proven to be from over correction as a child. Ask any speech therapist. In Wes' case his father was very overbearing and considered him a disappointment....interestingly, Owen Wilson had a parallel upbringing but speaks famously well. Both are intelligent and wrote brilliant films together. I think it's a sign of a sensitive child. Sensitive children grow into stmpathetic, thoughtful adults. "Intelligent" is too simple a word in my opinion.

I have seen all Wes Anderson films and I get why Bill Murray says yes blindly when Wes asks Bill to be in his movie. Wes Anderson is a true master of cinema.
This film is so accurate. It represents child romance so perfectly, true and heartfelt but unknowing and awkward. It represents rebellion against parents and the system perfectly.
This movie is worth it for Ed Norton in a scout uniform alone. It's a beautiful world to get lost in, including the stories that Suzy reads out loud 🥰
I loved Moonrise Kingdom. And most recently, the Isle of Dogs. Wes Anderson is probably one of the most original film makers working today. It's his sense of humor and originality that separate his films from what Hollywood puts out. It's too bad we don't have more original film makers out there. The Hollywood machine seems incapable of doing anything more than remakes. It's sad really.

What an amazing movie Moonrise Kingdom is. Perfect story, amazing characters, beautiful music and cinematography. Wes Anderson is a genius.
despite its success moonrise kingdome is way underrated. its timeless!
If I see a Wes Anderson scene for the first time before seeing the movie, I am then obsessed with a desire to see the movie. If I see a Wes Anderson scene after seeing the movie, I want to see the movie again. Stock standard movies are rarely that to the people who create them. They're not just gigs, or projects. They can be massive enterprises, the pressure to succeed largely commensurate with the huge amounts of money being invested by studios. But with that said, audiences view actioners, rom-coms or buddy movies as stock standard, because they play to a formula. You'll perhaps be entertained for the full two hours, but then you're done. With auteurs' movies, one viewing is never enough, not just they may have an established record of being an auteur. If you watch a Coen Brothers movie, the script often demands a second look, purely to take in all the nuance. With Wes Anderson, you can also build in the richness of the art direction and design. These people create new universes, not with CGI, but with story and detail.
This movie is AWSOME!!

You can say that of any filmaker ever, the difference is the consistency and uniqueness of Wes's work. Maybe all his films are similar, but who cares? no one does films like Wes Anderson.
there is also a theme in the movie that everyone misses. how adults are still children just with more responsibilities.
His movies strengthen my heart
one of my favorites
Still my favorite movie, rewatching it as you read this.
Man I love Wes Anderson so much
I Adore all his movies!! I live vicariously through them..
I just realized how Godard-esque that pen pal segment of Moonrise Kingdom is! I think Wes did it a little better than Godard actually.. but maybe I just fail to understand the point behind it when Godard does it.

Thank you Wes Anderson. I know exactly what you mean about the yellow tent. It would be nice to have every movie be its own unique chocolate with a different flavor in a chocolate box, but sometimes certain flavors just work better than others.
you know the quote from gone girl (2014) that says "i picture cracking her lovely skull, unspooling her brain, trying to get answers" ? because that is exactly how i feel about wes anderson. god knows what goes on in his head. he only shows so much of his genius in his films, and it would be so other-worldly to see what else he imagines.

Wes Anderson's movies are like the good comedy Woody Allen movies of the past. Anderson is the new Woody Allen. Now when you want to see a good, lighthearted and funny movie, Anderson's movies are the ones you see. I saw Rushmore and liked it somewhat and saw 2 other Anderson movies that I got bored with and there are others that I have yet to see. But this one, to me is my favorite. The story reminds me of what it was like for me when I was the same age as the 2 main characters in this great movie. That the 2 young actors were not professionals really worked for this movie. I only saw this for the first time a couple of days ago and I watched it a few more times since. Great movie.

So true about 12 year old romance.. it really is that way, you still have an underdeveloped brain but understand that you are feeling something so it turns into this fantasy like a cartoon or ferry tale. Thats why its important for parents to not let kids act on those emotions until they are much older. I dated the same girl from 13 to 19... it took me until i was 30 years old to get over that because my brain developed in a relationship with her. FUcked me up big time.
