I know it's childish and I shouldn't be irritated by such things but couldn't he have found one English actor to be one of the good guys instead of using them just for the bad guys? I say we go back to using German accents to denote evil.

That trailer is horrible. Not surprised, as Anderson hasn't been worthwhile as a director for nearly a decade.

disagree that anderson hasn't been worthwhile as I think Darjeeling is his best film. but this doesn't look very appealing to me, in fact it looks annoying

Not everyone could muster a magnanimous word for Anderson's M.O. -- especially his on-set absence. "I think he's a little sociopathic," cinematographer Oliver said. "I think he's a little O.C.D. Contact with people disturbs him. This way, he can spend an entire day locked inside an empty room with a computer. He's a bit like the Wizard of Oz. Behind the curtain."
Informed of Oliver's discontent, Anderson said: "I would say that kind of crosses the line for what's appropriate for the director of photography to say behind the director's back while he's working on the movie. So I don't even want to respond to it."
ha
tbh i don't think it's that big a deal for a director to not be on-set for a stop-motion film, because (a doy) it's not being made in real time, and there's no benefit in his responding in real time

btw the people who work on film crews are usually infinitely more dbaggy than the directors and actors, in my experience

not knowing about the situation, to me publicly bitching about the guy to the papers is way worse than being a little distant and controlling... as a movie director
― fleetwood (max), Sunday, 11 October 2009 21:00 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah, I wouldn't really call myself a big fan and I don't think I'll like this movie very much, on the other hand, he was the director of the film, not the director of photography or the cinematographer or a variety of other more hands-on important tasks, which unfortunately aren't often given the credit in culture that "director" is given. That's too bad, but with something that takes as long to make as this, I see no reason why he would have to be on site every day for three years, that's preposterous. Architects aren't onsite on construction projects every day all day either.
― akm, Sunday, 11 October 2009 21:03 (fifteen years ago) link
actors and directors are often a little distant and weird but not actively awful. DPs, PAs, assistant directors, editors, mid-level producers, grips....those people are really doing Important Work and they don't want to hear about it, they're Fucking Busy Right Now.

Woody's output over the last decade has been far worse but it at least there's some unpredictability there, some hopping around into different genres, different approaches to storytelling, casting, etc. Wes is just headlong down this echo chamber where even the 'quirks' and details of each movie feel increasingly plucked from this readymade kit of stock Wes Anderson characters, actors, storylines, camera angles, music cues, etc.

watched the Criterion blu-ray of this the other night, it was an Xmas gift for our 7-yr old. He loved it, I thought it was better than it was the first time I saw it. completely entertaining throughout and there were more details i picked up on this screening. and the visuals are the best of any Anderson film I've seen, it's just a very beautiful looking fall colors kind of movie. love the wolf bit near the end too. I think WA's aesthetic really works for this film, and unlike some of his more recent films (most of which i actually do enjoy a lot despite saying this!) it makes his aesthetic seem fresh.
