Moonrise Kingdom - 7,5/10
Typical Anderson's movie with the warped humour, absurd characters and really unique direction. It's like a picturesque ride, very charming and definitely not for everyone.

I think he is talking about that guy that always tries to push himself into the camera image whenever there is a live tv stream. |

mars needs moms
speed racer 8.5/10
i fucking love this movie, i honestly do. i remember clearly panning the fuck out of it when i first saw the images from the film and thought it looked tacky and shitty, but was quite happy to say i was totally and utterly wrong when i first saw it... and ive seen it many times since, and I just love it more every time.
its the complete antithesis of most movies we get today that are dry, reasonably realistic, 'gritty', dark, and gray/brown and serious...
this movie chucks all of that out the window. realism? fuck that. physics? eh, only when convenient. nothing is even remotely practical, reasonable, realistic, and everything is driven by magic... and i fucking love it. none of those muted colours as you usually see in films, this is a bright sugar rush of a film, everything is full of bright loud neon colour.
the watchachahchawkolwisokskis were called visionaries in the past, but it wasnt until i saw this movie that i agreed with that label. I know its a very unpopular film, and i know people hate it and think its dumb and has shitty visuals and whatever else, but i appreciated the style they chose and they brought it to the screen like no one else could...
Its kinda sad the film failed so badly there will never be a sequel, but on the other hand, if they would have tried to homogenise it and mainstream it so that it would have been easier to attract people to watch it and thus make more money to justify a sequel, the film would never have been as loud or as fun as it was...
Also loved how this was a rare case of a movie where the 'final battle' at the end, was worthy and satisfying. too often movies dont know how to handle a climactic fight between the good and bad guys, but this was satisfying and of a proper length.. not to mention all the action sequences were fantastic, and they were plentiful enough and of satisfying quality.
the ONLY failing in the film for me, was that kid and his monkey, that were 80% of the time, pretty annoying.
fucking love it, i feel like watching it again. and i think i might just do that.

Some recent commentary by them:
| Quote: | LANA WACHOWSKI: We knew the movie was dangerous because where the movie came from was we’re very visual thinking artists, were often drawn to ideas that stimulate our imagination visually, and unfortunately we live in one of the most rigid, or we work in a medium that is one of the most rigid aesthetically. So if you go to an art gallery, particularly a modern art gallery or art museum, or any art museum, you will experience an unbelievable range of aesthetic possibilities, and in cinema pretty much every movie looks exactly the same. I mean maybe you’ll make one a little greener, or maybe one will be a little more dark, but essentially they all look pretty identical.
ANDY WACHOWSKI: Particularly around the language of editing.
LANA WACHOWSKI: Yeah, we have always thought that it’s interesting that no one has really done much with the cinematic language of editing. Editing is this very straightforward grammar; it’s like a sentence it begins with a capital letter ends with a period. Every cut is a period. And we thought, well because of computers we actually have the ability to transcend this older language and try something more postmodern the way Joyce and other postmodern writers like Rick Moody have tried to extend the grammar of literature to reflect more the way that we experience the world. We don’t experience the world in sentences and capitols and periods. We experience the world in this like rushing stream of consciousness and connections. And we thought wouldn’t it be amazing to create sequences in a film that are just rushing montages that simulate the way that we actually experience the world. Particularly in like a race or a sports event where its swirling historical memory experience strategy conflict all woven without constructed, falsely constructed sentences. And then that led into a whole discussion of well because we make things in computers we don’t need all of these sort of primitive aesthetics that are slaves to cameras because we don’t rely on cameras anymore to make the image so we can do whatever we want in terms of focal claims or in terms of what is even in the grain of the out of focusness, what is in the-
ANDY WACHOWSKI: Lens flairs
LANA WACHOWSKI: Lens flair; all of these things can be redesigned to an aesthetic choice instead of connected to just what the technology can produce and then as we talked about all this, we had this moment that we were talking about cubism and the way that cubism offers this construction of art based on the imagination of perspective. And we’re like “wow, we could make the first cubist film because we could do edits that have the back of someone’s head and the front of their face on the screen at the same time.” But we knew, we knew just as the way Picasso was hunted and rocks were hurled at him when he first released or when he first-
ANDY WACHOWSKI: Unveiled-
LANA WACHOWSKI: -unveiled Guernica, I mean he was like literally hounded by a mob out of the city. We knew that adults cannot accept challenges to their conventional aesthetic, the aesthetic that they are bonded to, adults, if you sort of assault that aesthetic they will really rage in this primitive way. So we thought maybe we can make it for kids because kids are much more open aesthetically than kids are.
ANDY WACHOWSKI: But it just didn’t work out. [Laughs]
LANA WACHOWSKI: We don’t know why.
ANDY WACHOWSKI: We don’t know why.
LANA WACHOWSKI: We were just running from the mob like Picasso.
ANDY WACHOWSKI: But we love it. |
| Quote: | | "We had that exact conversation so many times. The whole impetus for 'Speed Racer' came out of the fact that we are visually-thinking people. We go to art galleries and art museums all the time. We go into the Art Institute and every room there, there are paintings that look completely and utterly different from the other rooms. But in cinema, everything looks the same. And it's a really aggressive straight-jacket, aesthetically. We started talking about cubism, for instance, and we started talking about could you make a cubist film? And we realized that if you try to make a cubist film for adults, you will end up like Picasso, running from the angry mob when he first showed Guernica. They wanted to kill him. Literally. It's because adults… they reject change, and an aesthetic change is too aggressive a death for them. Every generation experiences aesthetic death, and when you really assault an aesthetic, people freak out. But we said that kids are okay with aesthetic change." |
| Quote: | Lana agreed, saying, "Editing is a really interesting topic too because it's also aesthetic based. It is essentially the grammar of cinema, the sentence of cinema. And pretty much every movie since I was nine was, you know, from a capital letter to a period. Scenes progress through a series of cuts, and maybe you throw in a dissolve, which is more of an ellipse, you know, instead of a period. But we were sick of that, too. And if you read post-modern fiction, something like Rick Moody's Purple America or James Joyce's Ulysses, you see these authors trying to transcend the boundaries of conventional grammar, trying to get your brain to think about language differently."
One thing I've noticed about Lana Wachowski in conversation is that when she gets rolling with an idea, she gets excited by the idea, and it's like a feedback loop of enthusiasm. "And so we started trying to do that same thing with 'Speed Racer.' We said, 'Okay, we are going to assault every single modern aesthetic with this film.' And we said, 'Why do you have to use cuts? We want to do sequences that are like run-on sentences, stream-of-consciousness sentences that don't just start and end with the conventional cut, that are just montaged collages and flow the way'… you know, what Joyce was looking for was the way that his brain experiences the world. Joyce said, 'I want to try to demonstrate the way my mind works as I'm getting all of this input and it doesn't cut things and it doesn't order things and it doesn't always make sentences.' There were moments in 'Speed Racer,' like the races, where we just wanted them to feel like this experiential flowing thing that was was transcending normal simple linear narrative." |
I love them and I love Speed Racer. Can't wait for their new film. 
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
