Fantastic Mr. Fox is surprisingly good and original. Little Freed and I enjoyed it thouroughly.

Had you seen any Wes Anderson movies before you saw it? Rushmore, Royal Tennenbaums, Life Aquatic, etc...?

Royal Tennenbaums - need to see. Have seen Darjeeling Limited. Lost in Translation -not sure what his role was. I notice he uses Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, in about all of his work.

Darjeeling Limited and Mr Fox - totally different - but I can see the signature.

Ah, Lost in Translation wasn't him. But you nailed it on troupe. Anjelica Huston is another one that's in a lot of his films. He's got a ton of recurring themes that are in abundance in Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Wes Anderson is pretty hit or miss for me, but I enjoyed Fox quite a bit.

"fantastic mr. fox" - was my fav from last year.. big time..
that and "moon"

the others were all great "inglorious basterds" etc.. but i really
enjoyed "fox" and "moon"

I was surprised that it was so well-received. I enjoyed it, but I really figured that the off-kilter pacing that Wes Anderson always employs would turn off the vast majority of viewers.

I really want to see Moon

It's very good. Sam Rockwell is amazing.

I just saw The Assassination of Jess James... and he steals a couple scenes there. Casey was great but Brad wasn't too sharp, in my opinion. Maybe it was just Brad Pitt getting in the way of Jesse James, which is crazy to think about. One celeb being too big for another celeb. I wonder if each of them had similar popularity? I know that JJ was HUGE in his day.

That was a huge point of the movie. It's a statement movie about celebrity worship, and that's why Pitt was so perfect (at least in name) for that role.

I thought that was Pitt's best & a well-cast role for him. He did a good job of gradually amping up his paranoia as the show went on.
