Year: 2004
Director: Wes Anderson
Plot: The first effort from director Wes Anderson since his critically beloved The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou finds the filmmaker re-teaming with a number of familiar faces, including Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Anjelica Huston, and Seymour Cassel. Murray plays Steve Zissou, an eccentric and renowned oceanographer who has decided to seek out and enact mortal revenge on a shark that ate one of the men on his team. Along for the ride is Ned Plimpton (Owen Wilson), a young man who has joined Zissou's crew after showing up claiming to be the seaman's long-lost son and Zissou's co-producer (and estranged wife), Eleanor Angelica Huston. As the expedition ensues, the two bond and Plimpton falls for a female journalist (Cate Blanchett) who is writing a piece on Zissou. The crew meets a host of obstacles on their journey, including pirates, kidnapping, and bankruptcy. Adding a flair of whimsy to the film's aesthetic, the sea creatures and underwater scenes in the film have been created using stop-motion animation under the direction of Henry Selick, the man behind The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach. The ensemble cast also includes Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Michael Gambon, Noah Taylor, and Bud Cort. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide

Body: Please reference this thread for the rules of this group. Again it's kind of an arbitrary comparison I know, but I still thought it was interesting how many Andersons there were as famous directors. I know Roy Andersson has an extra "s" in it, but as far as I know it's pronounced the same. Please vote only once in each poll. Some of the movies from these directors: Lindsay Anderson - This Sporting Life, If...., O Lucky Man! Paul Thomas Anderson - Boogie Nights, Magnolia, There Will Be Blood Paul W.S. Anderson - Event Horizon, Resident Evil, AVP: Alien vs. Predator Wes Anderson - Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou Roy Andersson - A Swedish Love Story, Songs from the Second Floor, You, the Living

Rushmore Max: The secret, I don't know... I guess you've just gotta find something you love to do and then... do it for the rest of your life. For me, it's going to Rushmore. Royal Tenenbaums Royal: This is my adopted daughter, Margot Tenenbaum. Life Aquatic Klaus: Who the shit is Kingsley Zissou?

Body: Criterion, who had already shown the Wes Anderson love with their Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums and The Life Aquatic discs, announced back in 2007 that they were going to be putting out an edition of Bottle Rocket. This was met with much joy, especially because the previously released version, which came out back in 1996, was about as bare bones as you could get. The only real special feature it could claim was widescreen on one side of the disc, and full screen on the other. Big whoop. The new version, which just came out in late 2008 has a ton of features, and is available in both standard and Blu-ray editions. But it also contains one of the single most sour notes ever hit in an Anderson DVD. It’s so extremely painful that it makes the package almost worth avoiding. Just to be fair, here’s a list of everything the new edition of Bottle Rocket includes: a new digital transfer, approved by Wes Anderson and director of photography Robert Yeoman DTS HD 5.1 soundtrack Commentary track from Owen Wilson and Wes Anderson The Making of Bottle Rocket documentary with interviews from the actors, director, and producer James L. Brooks, directed by Barry Braverman The original 13 minute Bottle Rocket short film Eleven deleted scenes Storyboards and location photos Photographs by Laura Wilson The Shafrazi Lectures, No 1: Bottle Rocket, a sort of scholarly lecture about the movie Murita Cycles a 1978 short film from Barry Braverman Altogether, that’s a lot of Bottle Rocketry for anyone. But the biggest draw for most people will be the new transfer, and the commentary from Wilson and Anderson, who also wrote the film. You think they’d have some interesting insights into the making of this film. After all, Wilson and Anderson have known each other since college, and have collaborated on several films together. Instead what you get is a sleepy commentary from Wilson, with Anderson constantly prodding him and desperately trying to add some value to the track. At one point Anderson asks Wilson if he got the suggested questions or topics that were sent to him, in case they ran into long silences on the commentary, to which Wilson replies, “No. What questions?” Unfortunately, it ends up sounding like someone from Criterion called them that morning, and said “Oh, we need to record you guys in about two hours.” Both Wilson and Anderson sound pretty much bored by the entire process, and there are several moments where vast expanses of silence pass by like icebergs in the night. Even if they ran out of stuff to talk about from Bottle Rocket, couldn’t they just shoot the breeze? No funny stories from the set? No anecdotes about all the Wilson brothers? No, instead you get stuff like Wilson saying to Anderson, “Hey, isn’t that your hair in that shot?” Why not just feature Anderson by himself? He did a great solo job on The Royal Tenenbaums commentary. I don’t know much about the history of DVD authoring, so I’m not sure if there’s ever been a time when a DVD producer has gone back to the talent to say “I’m sorry, this just isn’t usable. Can you guys try that again?” The only commentary that comes to mind that is this inexplicably bad is from The Goonies, when Sean Astin has to leave in the middle because he had to attend a dinner with Joe Pantoliano. No kidding. The other extras on the disc almost make up for this, particularly the eleven deleted scenes. There’s a scene called “Temple Nash Jr.” where Dignan, Bob, and Anthony are asking all kinds of gun questions of a redneck gun nut. It’s hilarious enough to be a standalone short film. Most directors comment on deleted scenes, but sadly Anderson doesn’t chime in on why these were cut. I’m assuming it must have been for time. The Wilsons’ mother Laura, a professional photographer, took photos during the making of the short film and during its Sundance run, and also documented the crew’s initial meetings at Columbia Studios. These are shot in black and white, and they look terrific. There’s something about young Wes Anderson with his shock of Eraserhead hair that smacks of an Ivy League prep school, even though he was born and raised in Texas. Plus, seeing the pure joy on both Anderson and Wilson’s faces as they jump Toyota-commercial style off of the Columbia steps is a treat. The only bad thing about the doc The Making of Bottle Rocket is that it’s only 26 minutes long. Filmmaker and longtime friend of the Wilson/Anderson set Barry Braverman gets pretty much everyone involved in the film on camera, and the best quote comes from James Caan, who says about his experience working on the movie, “Well, it was like three days. It was like being in the left hand corner of the Hollywood Squares or something.” There are some great remembrances in this that aren’t in the commentary track, and it’s also been shot in high-def widescreen as well. It’s too bad they couldn’t have made this feature length. Also included on the disc is a short film from Braverman, this one made in 1978. It’s called Murita Cycles, and is about Braverman’s father who ran a bicycle shop on Staten Island for years, and Wilson and Anderson both said it was one of their inspirations for the Bottle Rocket short. It’s a touching look at an eccentric guy who goes from normal father to packrat kook and is documented and interviewed by his son. The Shafrazi Lectures, No 1: Bottle Rocket is an 11-minute, very strange discussion of the film from Tony Shafrazi, the owner of the Shafrazi Gallery in New York. He’s the artist who spray painted “KILL LIES ALL” on top of Picasso’s “Guernica” in the Museum of Modern Art in 1974. It’s a near-incoherent praise of the film, and he compares it to films like East of Eden and Breathless, while displaying scenes on sheets of paper that he’s holding up in a dark room. It’s hard to decide if it’s sincere or not, since they including fake Charlie Rose style interviews from “The Peter Bradley Show” on the Tenenbaums disc. It’s almost worth watching just for the sheer bizarre factor. “I don’t like all this serious stuff,” Shafrazi remarks at one point. There’s one other special feature nearly as painful as the commentary, but for different reasons. That’s an anamorphic test scene that was shot when they considered shooting the movie in the widescreen Panavision format. It looks completely gorgeous, and would have made Bottle Rocket even prettier than it already is. Granted, it’s a fairly perfect movie by my standards, but the movie geek in me yearns for a non-existent widescreen version of this to get unearthed sometime. Maybe in an alternate universe. DVD booklets are not always worth remarking on, but this one includes Dignan’s complete 75-Year Plan along with essays from James L. Brooks and Martin Scorsese, all done in Dignan’s handwriting, which I assume is from illustrator Ian Dingman. If I admit that I’m giving serious consideration to scanning and framing the 75-Year Plan, then at least I’m on the first step to recovery from Anderson addiction. Originally posted on:SpoutBlog

Body: I did a little research on Campari to ease my curiosity, and stumbled across a helpful Wikipedia article on it. [quote user="Wikipedia.org"] Campari is an alcoholic (alcohol 20.5%, 21%, 25% and even 28% depending on which country it is purchased) aperitif obtained from the infusion of sixty ingredients, combined and macerated in a blend of distilled water and alcohol. Campari is a type of bitters. Campari was invented by Gaspare Campari between 1862 and 1867. Today the product is still composed of the same original ingredients, thanks to a formula which has remained a secret for almost 150 years. Campari is obtained from the infusion of bitter and aromatic herbs, plants and fruit in alcohol and water. [/quote] Sounds a lot like my favorite liquer (not liquor), Chartreuse, which lent its name to the shade of green we all know. [quote user="Wikipedia.org"] Chartreuse is a French liqueur composed of distilled alcohol flavored with 130 herbal extracts. The liqueur is named after the Grande Chartreuse monastery where it was formerly produced, located in the Chartreuse Mountains. The liquor is nowadays produced in a factory in the nearby town of Voiron under the supervision of monks from the monastery. [/quote] I'm guessing I'd like Campari... I know of a bar around here that has a lot of off-beat old world liquors, so I'll have to see if they have some Campari on hand. Now, back to quotes! :-) [quote user="mercurial"] Campari . . . ICK! I remember when The Life Aquatic come out on DVD I went out and spent a decent chunk of change on a couple bottles of Campari and some sushi to have a little themed viewing party with some friends. Little did I know that only Steve Zissou is crazy enough to drink Campari on the rocks (I had absolutely no mixers in my apt.) and the night turned into a hilarious "I'll take a shot if you take a shot" with lots of accompanying photos of distorted faces after taking a swig of the ungodly tasting redish orange liquor. But it has been a number of years since then. Maybe I should try it again. As for a memorable quote from the film: "I'll order you a red cap and a speedo." [/quote]
]]>Wed, 17 Dec 2008 19:40:24 GMTseelyBest movie quotes12/17/2008 2:40:24 PMI did a little research on Campari to ease my curiosity, and stumbled across a helpful Wikipedia article on it. [quote user="Wikipedia.org"] Campari is an alcoholic (alcohol 20.5%, 21%, 25% and even 28% depending on which country it is purchased) aperitif obtained from the infusion of sixty ingredients, combined and macerated in a blend of distilled water and alcohol. Campari is a type of bitters. Campari was invented by Gaspare Campari between 1862 and 1867. Today the product is still composed of the same original ingredients, thanks to a formula which has remained a secret for almost 150 years. Campari is obtained from the infusion of bitter and aromatic herbs, plants and fruit in alcohol and water. [/quote] Sounds a lot like my favorite liquer (not liquor), Chartreuse, which lent its name to the shade of green we all know. [quote user="Wikipedia.org"] Chartreuse is a French liqueur composed of distilled alcohol flavored with 130 herbal extracts. The liqueur is named after the Grande Chartreuse monastery where it was formerly produced, located in the Chartreuse Mountains. The liquor is nowadays produced in a factory in the nearby town of Voiron under the supervision of monks from the monastery. [/quote] I'm guessing I'd like Campari...

Good summer drink. [/quote] [/quote] Not many people know. I discovered it at a bar I would go to, and I think I'm the only person who EVER ordered it there.

Body: [quote user="rjsprague"] If you don't know who Wes Anderson is, perhaps you know his movies. Bottle Rocket Rushmoore Royal Tenenbaums Life Aquatic Darjeeling Limited I wanted to compile a collection of everyone's favorite quotes from Wes Anderson's movies. I'll start off with one of my favorites from Royal Tenenbaums by Bill Murray's character when Margot (Gwenyth) tells him she's not sure if she wants to be with him anymore and he says in a monotone voice: "Well I wanna die." What's your favorite Wes Anderson quote? [/quote] Bottle Rocket: My name is Digman, man. Rushmore: O. R. they. The Royal Tennenbaums: That's jsut dog blood. The Life Aqutic: Do the interns get glocks? The Darjeeling Limited: How does a train get lost? It's on rails.
