I love me some Wes Anderson but 'The French Dispatch' was a pain to get through!

2024-09-28 17:22:49 +0000 UTCIt was a parental recommendation, I forget whose.

2024-09-28 06:19:45 +0000 UTCI can't remember, did Burn After Reading win a poll? Or did they just pick it from the Coen filmography? If they're working through the non-poll winners in order, Barton Fink should be next up actually.

2024-09-28 05:00:02 +0000 UTCI think my ranking is just about the same, but I'd probably notch Life Aquatic over Isle of Dogs.

2024-09-28 04:57:57 +0000 UTCYou should just watch all of them in order to see his progression, they're all worth watching

2024-09-28 04:51:56 +0000 UTCWhile Rushmore is my personal favorite, going with my second fave here, The Royal Tenenbaums. Think it will be better for a reaction. Great movie and stacked cast. Haven’t seen Astroid City yet. The only WA movie I don’t like is Bottle Rocket. Have watched it probably 4 times TRYING to like it, but .. it just doesn’t work for me. Don’t know why. French Dispatch was just ok. The rest are all gold.

2024-09-28 04:44:11 +0000 UTCAlso, if it helps, Butch Cassidy is winning the Duos poll!
Tyler Foster
2024-09-27 21:07:07 +0000 UTCWhile I doubt we'll get an older director's filmography, it would be nice to get a pre-1970 poll every couple of months. Even if they're less popular, six pre-1970s movies a year shouldn't be too hard on the channel's metrics.

2024-09-27 21:05:58 +0000 UTCHenry Sugar is part of an anthology of four shorts Anderson made for Netflix. The poll references the full title: The Wonderful World of Henry Sugar and Three More. The stories together run just under 90m.

2024-09-27 21:04:40 +0000 UTCThe best Wes Anderson movies are the Paddington films ;-)

2024-09-27 18:29:44 +0000 UTCStart with Bottle Rocket (his first movie) and then build from there.

2024-09-27 18:16:14 +0000 UTCGBH will always be my favorite Wes Anderson but soooo many 10/10 movies here, he has such a wonderful filmography My ranking after GBH: The Royal Tenenbaums Moonrise Kingdom Rushmore Fantastic Mr. Fox Isle of Dogs Life Aquatic --- the rest Excited for you both to get into these!

2024-09-27 18:03:35 +0000 UTCWeird how Royal Tenenbaums is beating The Life Aquatic
Odd Thomas
2024-09-27 17:51:19 +0000 UTCA quick FYI, Henry Sugar is only around 40 minutes or so long

2024-09-27 17:47:48 +0000 UTCI suggested a poll for some classic directors when they did a Scorsese poll I think. Sadly, don't think there's much interest, most classic film polls get a lot less votes than other polls. There are a lot of patrons who likely have never seen a Billy Wilder or Howard Hawks or John Ford film(based on some of the comments in past classic film polls - "I've never heard of any of these films etc") and the fact that Young Guns got more votes than The Searchers and The Wild Bunch combined in a western poll.

2024-09-27 17:43:12 +0000 UTCAll of these are worth seeing and i had to change my number of votes from 3 to 5 with this one
Smooticus
2024-09-27 17:40:37 +0000 UTCI completely agree, but I should add there are a couple I haven't seen. And speaking of the Coen Brothers, it will make my day when someone out there reacts to Barton Fink.

2024-09-27 17:15:24 +0000 UTCThose are all excellent choices. Billy Wilder is a special favorite of mine.

2024-09-27 17:11:55 +0000 UTCBottle Rocket is great.

2024-09-27 16:56:34 +0000 UTCI picked Steve Zissou because it's my favorite Wes Anderson but Asteroid City almost got my vote.
Antmovies
2024-09-27 16:22:24 +0000 UTCClassic Directors Howard Hawks , George Stevens and John Huston !! I knew I would think of more to add to my list from earlier comments !
Keith Brown
2024-09-27 16:20:40 +0000 UTCYou do a great job covering current directors please look into classic Hollywood directors ! You have found a few of Hitchcock's movies but there is also John Ford, William Wyler, Billy Wilder, Frank Capra, Anthony Mann and others I will think of later. Most everyone have seen most of Stanley Kubrick's which is why I did not list him.

2024-09-27 15:30:43 +0000 UTCIt’s gotta be a vote for Fox!

2024-09-27 15:25:12 +0000 UTCNo clue who that even is 🤷 only heard of mr fox 🦊 so voting for that 👍
Ian
2024-09-27 15:22:19 +0000 UTCIt's a little bit heart breaking that the earlier movies aren't doing well (Bottle Rocket, Rushmore). But Royal Tenenbaums is fantastic too and it's kicking arse so far.
Tostito Buddy
2024-09-27 15:20:43 +0000 UTCGiven there's already a poll it's sort of too late but honestly I think Anderson deserves the chronological complete filmography treatment like Tarantino (and hopefully The Coen Brothers).
Tyler Foster
2024-09-27 15:19:37 +0000 UTC"Life Aquatic", please.
Thomas Yanez
2024-09-27 15:18:09 +0000 UTCAnd then see Mr Fox as a treat.
Paul Cox
2024-09-27 15:14:46 +0000 UTCThe trifecta is Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, and The Grand Budapest Hotel. Best experience is to watch his style progress in chronological order.
