So I watched I Want to Believe (2008) last night, and I hated it. Absolutely hated it. The storyline was all over the place and didn't make much sense. Don't get me started on the plotline of Scully (re)finding her faith through a pedophile Catholic ex-priest grrrr. And there was barely any cutey, domestic moments between Mulder and Scully when they freaking LIVE TOGETHER. Instead, they spent most of the movie separated and/or fighting and just generally making me sad.

And the moment the mother of the sick boy said to Scully "if you were a mother, you'd understand," I nearly wept. Scully my love!

#i will say gillian anderson looked incredible in this movie #5/5 loved her #we didn't enough bearded mulder #i loved it when skinner showed up and was all 'mulder will get to a phone and call' and then scully gave him that LOOK #the cute msr moments we got were nice so maybe i will just ignore everything else and focus on the kissy and curled up in bed them #the x files #i want to believe #my heart goes out to anyone who watched this in the movie theater after a seven year drought #it just felt like a extended bad episode #which is like fun whatever #not every episode slaps #BUT THE MOVIES SHOULD #okay rant over please ignore me now

being a movie nerd is so embarrassing because i've recently rewatched fantastic mr. fox and now it is literally the only thing i am physically capable of talking about. we start chatting and before you know it i'm telling you about all the symbolisms and hidden details in that movie (you haven't even watched it and you have no idea what i'm talking about)

#and you will never understand how much that movie means to me bc its literally my childhood #we had it on cd when i was like seven and at one point i watched it like every weekend for like three months #I WAS OBSESSED #and watching it now noticing all the things i couldn't see as a kid #just makes me love it even more i know its not an underground niche movie or anything its by one of the biggest drievtors in the industry #but still i have a different kind of connection to that thing i swear no one gets it like i do #AND THE MUSIC IS LIKE SO GOOD WTF #AND THE OVERALL AESTHETIC #AND THE FUCKING CHARACTERS #ASH WAS SO PERSONAL TO ME WHEN I WAS SEVEN #i love fantastic mr. fox i love stop motion i love the weird hand gestures and stuff they do i love the weird ass dialogue #fantastic mr. fox #fantastic mr fox #wes anderson #stop motion #animation #animated movies #nostalgic #i talk films

Eventually there will be a Wes Anderson movie where Wes Anderson just comes to your house, makes you dress up in a corduroy suit and then reads to you from a pop-up book the story of your own life, as interpreted by Wes Anderson.

#every wes anderson movie is more wes anderson than the one before #i don't know how he keeps distilling it past Grand Budapest levels

Hey Sophie, I've never seen a Wes Anderson movie! Any suggestions on what to start with?

Hey! Oooo, yeah, I think I'd say to start either with Fantastic Mr. Fox or The Royal Tenenbaums?

The latter was my entry point to Wes Anderson and is definitely the one of his I've rewatched the most. The cast is amazing, but I think it encapsulates a lot of what I love about his work at its purest which is stylisation and comedy for the sake of emphasising genuinely human moments, and emotional truths that just rip a hole in you. If I was to ever make a list of my top fifty movies, I think The Royal Tenanbaums would be on it (Ben Stiller's line deliver of I've had a rough year, dad is genuinely iconic to me).

Fantastic Mr. Fox I think though is just both good and pretty accessible? His style of writing/direction/filmmaking lends itself well to stop motion, and he's a bit of a dream match for Roald Dahl adaptations tbh. It's a great movie and a great story anyway, and particularly if you feel inclined / know you like animation, I think Fantastic Mr. Fox is a very good place to start.

#i do genuinely love wes anderson's films overall but i don't love all his work which is okay! #my most controversial opinion is i don't like moonrise kingdom #and i don't reaaaally like life aquatic either #funnily enough i took my mum #a Known Wes Anderson Hater #haha #to asteroid city this week and she (and i) loved it a lot #she was like hmmm maybe you can reintroduce me to wes anderson movies as we were leaving the cinema hahaha #she's only ever otherwise seen life aquatic and darjeeling limited and LOOK #i do get why you wouldn't like him if those were your only exposure to him #he can sometimes lean a bit style over substance #because his work IS so highly stylised #but it's why when he strikes the right balance his stuff just sings y'know? #film asks #welcome to my ama #i also had a couple of weeks off but am now BACK to seeing movies every tuesday at the cinema and it's genuinely the best

[simblrd]

the vibes, right?

#backstory: i saw asteroid city the other day bc i have to watch every wes anderson movie or i will die #so i booted up 2 bc i was reading someones story and it got me itching to play 2 real bad and i created a desert city #a ton of my sims have gotten burgled in the last round so i felt it would be fitting if i made a little old west jailhouse

[mvxximvs]

just saw asteroid city and I think I have a new favorite movie

#this is the first wes Anderson movie I've seen but if their all this weirdly existential sign me up #idk what it meant or what it was about but I loved every second #asteroid city #wes anderson #also it makes me laugh how many people didn't like it just bc they didn't understand #you don't need to understand something for it to be good #although if you just point blank didn't think it was good that's a different and completely valid story

Rewatching the Resident Evil films now that they're all available on streaming without needing to rent/purchase. I forgot how depressing they were. Alice was a badass(thanks to Mila's fine ass), but damn every time she got out or helped people the umbrella corporation was right there. Them mfs was ten steps ahead every time. Ain't no escaping.

#i swear every time paul wes anderson was like 'another movie?' mila was like 'aight!' #sis was getting that bag #resident evil films #mila jovovich #netflix #resident evil

watched the darjeeling limited and the verdict is it could’ve been worse, but I’m tired of art films that rely on people being quirky and rude why can’t we have more characters that are just nice kind people

Also the only redeeming character was adrien brody’s but my enjoyment of him only lasted until a minute after the end of the movie which was when I learned he is tragically a creep and I took back everything nice I said about him

#I think we need to take away every award he’s ever earned and just give them all to halle berry #this is also the only wes anderson movie I’ve seen and I know it’s his least popular but I can’t imagine the others are much more enjoyable #max goes to the movies #this is the only movie review I’m kind of nervous about sharing I feel like the movie snobs get up in arms about this guys movies #so this is a disclaimer that my favorite types of movies are shitty westerns and early 00s xmen movies so take my opinions w lots of salt

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Three More (2024) dir. Wes Anderson

#The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar #The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Three More #Wes Anderson #After years of people saying that he just does the same thing for every movie he pushes his style to its breaking point here #Really gripping stuff - ultimately just the actors and the text

I'm feeling like a dangerous woman today: Wes Anderson movies are pretentious and annoying as fuck, right?

#personal #meant to incite serious yet mature discussion #I might be labelled as severely uncultured and borderline illiterate but this is i #not those things but just not liking his movies #i WANT to #because their cool n differentedness is quirky and I feel like liking stuff like that makes someone pretty interesting #but i feel perthonally that they characters just blow a lot of hot air out of their mouths without sayin much #i know there are layers and themes and devices but guess what even marvel uses those #it doesn't make a piece of media better if it uses like #allegory #what if the rest of it is insufferable susan? #what if the whole time i'm watching a wed anderson movie i'm thinking what the fuck is she going on about in this moment? #call me uncouth but sometimes it's ok if a movie uses a modicum of exposition and like #plot linearity #to make sure their film isn't completely intelligible #unintelligible i mean #it's a little lazy if the we the viewer have to infer subjective meaning from every second of the movie??? #i just got off work i thought you wanted to tell ME something about how you see the world through stories? #i am not being paid for this #they look pretty though his movies #should i tag this wes anderson #nooooo i won't i feel like some people on here might actually lop my head off #marvel is pretty insufferable for the opposite reason #but where are the movies in the middle who balance engaging our brains a bit as an audience but not spoon feeding it to us?

The iconic logo of the lady holding the torch that you currently see at the beginning of every Columbia Pictures movie was born in the apartment of Pulitzer Prize-winning New Orleans photographer Kathy Anderson in 1991.

The final version is a painting, but few people know that it was based on a photo of the photographer’s colleague, captured during a portrait shoot in a small space using very simple props.

“During the shoot, Jenny asked if she could sit down for a minute,” says the photographer. “I shot one frame of her seated, which may be my favorite image from the shoot. But after chatting for a minute, she confided that she was pregnant. After congratulating her, we resumed shooting, but I was worried about her standing on the box.”

Peter Anderson: Hi, my name is Peter Anderson. I'm from Peter Anderson Studio and we created the title sequence to Good Omens Season Two. So this scene is quite literally a continuation from Season One.

An interesting detail with this scene is the fly. The fly is significant because it stores Gabriel's memory.

Gabriel is hidden in every scene. This is the first time we see it.

This goat is half bird, half goat, representing a mistake in a moment of transformation.

In the pickled herring barrel, we have literally red herrings sticking out.

A lot of the gravestones have hidden engravings, easter eggs, all written by Neil.

[This one says: HERE LIES THE FORMER SHELL OF BEELZEBUB referncing Beelzebub having a new face in S2 :), another ones are: EVERYDAY, JANE AUSTEN, Here lies ADAM (the Adam from Adam and Eve is meant)]

Another hidden Gabriel.

Our same character that was trying to escape Hell in Season One titles is also trying to escape here, moving in the opposite direction to the rest of the procession. Except this time he's apprehended and dragged back into the procession.

Our Hell spider from episode four makes a little appearance in the background here.

Can you tell where the bus is going? Director Douglas McKinnon selected Powell and Pressburger's Stairway to Heaven to put on the billboard.

Another thing to note here is the type is all handmade specifically for Good Omens. The Alphabet only exists within the show.

The big floating turnip is a nod to Azirafel's magic tricks.

The Ladies of Camelot poster we pulled from the show.

We added plaques to the back of the chairs and Neil chose who to honour.

[There are: A TALE OF TWO CITIES by CHARLES DICKENS, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE by JANE AUSTEN, THE CROW ROAD by IAIN BANKS (twice!) and GOOD OMENS by TERRY PRATCHETT (Neil missing for some reason :) <3)]

Saraqael made an appearance from Heaven.

Our Space is back from Season One. Aziraphale and Crowley are having a little dance here. A moment of flirtation. There's a tiny planet in the middle that comes into existence at this moment.

Our Scottish tartan hills make an appearance here.

The aeroplane and the airline is a little bit of a clue here.

[THY KINGDOM AIRWAYS 👀]

It's raining love hearts in reference to Aziraphale's attempt at making Maggie and Nina fall in love.

Here are elevators to Heaven and Hell. A wee thing to spot. Here is Gabriel in the lift arriving from Heaven.

We've updated our flags to reference some of the plotlines in Season Two. For example, The Second Coming.

The movie poster artwork changes every week, representing the episode plotlines and the minisodes. We made the posters to look like the time period and in this case we've got a Good Omens version of Buddy Holly.

[The posters are:]

In the snack bar some of our popcorn is actually communion wafers.

There are specific characters from Season One in the boxes watching the movie as the procession goes by. This includes some of our original concept art from Season One.

The duck playing the accordion is from a newspaper headline that someone is reading in The Dirty Donkey from one of the episodes.

[this is also from the Good Omens book :): "Daily Mail. 'Letter From America.' Um, August the third," said Newt. "Just after the story about the woman in Worms, Nebraska, who taught her duck to play the accordion."]

Each episode is showing a new movie on the screen, each one selected by Douglas, and has clues about what's to come.

The season one phone box tumbles in the background.

The big mountain is made of all the ingredients from Season Two and a couple of remnants from Season One. We are heading towards the biggest Easter Egg, which is the lift. We're heading towards the Second Coming..
