"In contrast, it's clear people are still willing to see movies as Asteroid City just had the best opening weekend of any Wes Anderson movie yet."
"He genuinely hasn't missed. Every time I think all this cutesy twee shit is gonna be too much and every time he pulls it off. The most recent one definitely has some major flaws and is far from his best, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it and had a better time in the theater than pretty much everythi"
"I like him. Dude has his own style that was imitated endlessly for like ten years but he still just does his thing and makes nice little movies."
"I'm not a big film guy but the twee ostentatiousness of Wes Anderson's movies always annnoyed me."
"He's an artist for sure but the fast dialogue and quirky bullshit is getting on my nerves. Very look at me I'm smart and quirky. Little depth. Little time to reflect. Never let's the audience take a breather. His style is honed in, but it's immature. It feels cheep. Targeted towards high-school stud"
"Two movies post Covid, what a champ. R/ RSP What did you think of the French dispatch and the new asteroid trailer"
"even more auter type stuff like wes anderson, scorcese or tarantino has become more formuliac to just giving you another film in this guy's style"
"The recent talking point I keep seeing people regurgitate is how only white people like his movies because they're about rich white people"
"people love to post on here like 'you're not special because you watch wes anderson and listen to radiohead' you lose all impact when my retired suburbanite mom would understand your references."
"I don't even like Wes Anderson, I just like seeing references to Truffaut on the big screen"
"Obv most of the credit goes to R Dahl but Wes so clearly loves the language: he should write a novel. Grand Budapest was amazing too for how he wrote the voice of the author."
"This movie is like a shitty knock off Wes Anderson film."
"I just saw it and thought it was very good. I wish it came together just a little more, but I'm sure it was intentional. Did anyone see it? I love Wes Anderson and am completely unashamed of it."
"you lose all impact when my retired suburbanite mom would understand your references"
"I like pretty basic 'good' movies. The Deer Hunter, No Country for Old Men, Lost In Translation, a few wes anderson movies etc. Kubrick."
"This movie is like a shitty knock off Wes Anderson film."
"I've gone off Wes Anderson besides Bottle Rocket"
