Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox is great. Still only in limited release, Anderson’s sixth feature officially ends his frustrating creative downturn. His career came storming out of the gate, with the one-two-three punch of Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, and The Royal Tenenbaums. But then he stopped writing with Owen Wilson, and his next two features (The Life Aquatic and The Darjeeling Limited)...
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...
Something aobut stop-motion animation, Roald Dahl and Wes Anderson seems like a perfect collision in aesthetics, sensibilities and quirk. Everything that's grown to annoy me about Anderson's old money-Owen Wilson-Bill Murray movies (Darjeeling, Life Aquatic) fades into memory with his...

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....

Justin Theroux has been hired to pen a draft of the astronaut romantic comedy Space Invader. Theroux is an actor turned screenwriter whose writing credits include Tropic Thunder and the upcoming Iron Man 2. Mike Lisbe and Nate Reger sold the project to 20th Century Fox and penned the original draft. The concept is actually kind of funny, and has nothing to do with the famous retro video game (alien...
