The Criterion Collection (1 Viewer)

I think I like a fair amount of Wes Anderson, like I said I liked The French Dispatch and The Grand Bupdapest but there's a suprising amount of stuff I haven't seen or don't remember seeing. I just browse topics sometimes and I saw kps post and found it curious but that makes a lot of sense. Though I'm bombarded with trailers, if I'm watching youtube and sometimes streaming services you'll see a bunch but when I look up a movie I don't watch the trailer, I'll read the little blurb about it and glance at the score since tha't's what I care about.

Further proof we might not be able to be movie friends. ;)

Who needs you when I have these wonderful movie friends

He's a tough one as I've really liked some (Grand Budapest Hotel, Moonrise Kingdom) and hated others (French Dispatch).
1 out of 2 ain't bad
I enjoyed The French Dispatch quite a bit.

I am with you, I am team Wes Anderson. Not a total fanboy, I didn't care for Royal Tenenbaums which many consider his best film. But Grand Budapest Hotel, French Dispatch, Moonlight Kingdom, Bottle Rocket, Rushmore and Asteroid City are all just delightfully weird movies that I really like to love.

I noticed that you cut of the part of the quote where @rockaction tells you he doesn't even watch many movies. You gonna trust that guy??!! ;) j/k, rock!

But that is the beauty of all this - there are movies for anybody. One thing you will never hear me say is that Wes is untalented or his movies aren't well directed and look great. Also, I haven't tried any of his after Grand Budapest Hotel, and have probably only seen 4-5 of them. Maybe I am off here, but his weirdness I code in my head as quirky and cute - where I lean more dark and sarcastic. Looking at his cast of actors that he is frequent collaborators with and it is also largely people I don't seem to click with in other movies, so it's a bit of a double whammy - Tilda Swinton is a reason I haven't tried some of the newer ones, for example. I seem to have a pretty strong dislike of her for some reason.
