Today was windy. Trees were freaking out. One even snapped. Would you believe me if I said a windtorn tree was the highlight of my day?
Lets move on. I think I had a pretty large shift in my movie world. This weekend I re-watched two Wes Anderson favorites, Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums. I have always considered Rushmore the better of the two, most likely because I felt like I could relate better to Max and his high school life. But after this weekend I would honestly have to say that The Royal Tenenbaums has inched its way up past Rushmore. I was pretty astounded when I made I came to this conclusion but it only has good meanings. As for all of the other Wes Anderson movies, they all are at a very high level of appreciation that makes it hard to distinguish one over the other. However as it stands now, Tenenbaums reign superior.
I think you want me to steal some Where the Wild Things Are pictures from another website.
it's probably the best thing coming out this fall(that we know of so far) along with The Road.
Funny thing too is I'll be 20 years old when I go see this.
I very much enjoy my refined sense of childish desires/actions.
I can explain that further if needed.
(also I took a food break while writing this thing...in case you were wondering.)
And go buy some stocks, the arrows are all green. Something about houses and banks getting government something. Why wait!? you only live once.
The Royal Tenenbaums is an awesome movie. Not only does it have a great story, it started Herman ("He sees you when you're sleeping, He knows when you're awake" - Thanks Greg).
ReplyDeleteas for your stock advice....eh. It's like saying walmart is recession proof.
Henry Sherman was a great accountant too!
ReplyDeleteyou wouldnt be saying that if you had some wal-mart stock!
but then again we all know the DOW is just a "short-twitch numerical representation of a bunch of guesses about other peoples assumptions of the financial well being of an arbitrarily chosen group of thirty out of tens of thousands of possible companies."
must love stewart!
Wow, I just re-watched The Royal Tenenbaums last weekend, too.
ReplyDeleteTwenty years old...that's a scary thought. Those pictures are looking pretty awesome though!
