7/17/2009 11:50:44 AM

I like Roald Dahl. I like Wes Anderson. But all I can think about is fucking Starfox.

7/17/2009 1:15:00 PM

Looks great though!

7/17/2009 1:47:48 PM

I'm gonna hurt you real bad when we get inside.

I am so excited about this

7/18/2009 2:40:08 PM

Holy shit. It's like he took his brother's drawings and made them into backgrounds for puppets.

"I don't have a bandit hat, but I modified this tube sock."

7/31/2009 5:21:23 AM

you look good.

yeah, i do.

7/31/2009 7:35:56 AM

apparently they're saying "we look good", my bad guys.

7/31/2009 9:22:00 AM

that entire trailer had me smiling

7/31/2009 9:33:17 AM

sort of underwhelming apart from the tube sock line

7/31/2009 1:33:28 PM

Protect Slippy!

Press Z or R to do a barrel roll!

7/31/2009 4:32:47 PM

I bet the Furries can barely constrain there excitement.

Harry Knowles calls this the best pre-release featurette he's ever seen:

Sadly this does not look very good.

What doesn't look good about it? It looks thrown together but is obviously very meticulously constructed...like a Pixies song.

9/14/2009 5:47:52 PM

the stop-motion animation is too stop-motion-y

9/14/2009 6:25:26 PM

^^I dunno? Just the trailer I saw like a month ago was not very funny or interesting looking to me =/

I'll watch it again.

9/14/2009 6:34:18 PM

the foxes look creepy

9/14/2009 7:16:17 PM

i remain cautiously optimistic.

i've really adored wes' entire oeuvre so far.

9/14/2009 8:00:59 PM

I saw this just now.

I enjoyed it, a lot.

Love the M*A*S*H reference. Jason Schwartzmnn was great.

Not really a kids movie.

wes anderson was on fresh air last night, it this sounds pretty interesting. i'm a little concerned with his choice to use a lot of disney songs though.

11/24/2009 9:34:37 PM

Disney songs?

11/24/2009 9:36:16 PM

RULED

songwriting line ftw

11/27/2009 10:46:09 PM

I liked it a good bit.

"I didn't get it," said my mom.

11/28/2009 12:00:08 AM

saw it tonight, and i enjoyed it.

11/28/2009 12:22:27 AM

I adored everything involving eyeballs.

11/28/2009 12:56:38 AM

I loved this movie. I saw Moon a few months ago, loved it, and didn't think another movie from this year could top it in my mind. However, I definitely think this movie has beat it.

11/28/2009 1:56:26 AM

loved it

the soundtrack was fabulous too

Who did Anjelica Huston play? I don't see her listed for this on IMDB

11/28/2009 3:39:36 PM

No one, apparently.

11/28/2009 5:39:15 PM

I thought it was ok.

Might have to see it again, just b/c I tend to like Wes Anderson's movies after a revisit.

12/1/2009 11:29:37 AM

Loved it.

12/1/2009 12:22:14 PM

Davey Crocket's Ballad is Disney is it not?

12/1/2009 12:28:41 PM

DVDSCR is out.

1/11/2010 11:14:24 AM

Meh...was okay.

I can see why people loved it...but still a little slow for me. Not enough moments brought the funny for me. And Jason Schwartzman delivers...I think he's hilarious...but I think he sucked in this one.

1/11/2010 12:41:13 PM

How can he deliver and suck in the same movie

1/11/2010 5:42:36 PM

Left out the word "when".

1/11/2010 9:40:18 PM

and this:



to the wolf

1/13/2010 1:32:25 PM

saw it this weekend. it was just okay.

1/18/2010 10:46:40 PM

you're just okay

1/19/2010 12:57:15 AM

Saw it tonight and we LOVED it!

Especially ^^^ the wolf!

1/22/2010 10:12:26 PM

easily one of my favorite movies of 2009...i love wes anderson but wasn't sure how he'd show himself with the animation. i was pleasantly surprised
