Disco Stu 15,495 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Wes Anderson's Isle of Dogs General consensus online seems to be "this looks really bad." Which I'm ok with. I was more comfortable 10 years ago when critics were real down on Wes Anderson; it feels weird when everyone likes him. I like and will like and will always like everything he does. It feels good to have at least one artist you feel that way about. "Literally no matter what this artist does, I am on board." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Really digging the trailer for the Wes Anderson film. But where are you getting you getting this supposed "negative consensus" from Stu? From what little I've read, people are generally pumped for it.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I guess I looked at the wrong critics? I'm not on Twitter on anymore, but I perused the feeds of a few critics I used to follow and saw generally negative comments. I'd be ok with being wrong on the consensus!

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 In Anderson's defense, he cast all Japanese actors to play Japanese human characters. His universe he created for this seems to be that dogs speak American English even in Japan and they can't understand Japanese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 The whole thing feels kind of Arrival-ish, but probably more out there. I don't like the CG look, and the way the light is used in some of the shots. But I enjoyed Ex Machina, so I'm looking forward to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like with Ex Machina, might be best to go into this knowing as little as possible. But here's the short synopsis from Wiki: Quote A biologist's husband disappears. She puts her name forward for an expedition into an environmental disaster zone, but does not quite find what she's expecting. The expedition team is made up of the biologist, an anthropologist, a psychologist, and a surveyor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,355 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Well, it probably didn't say that because he did not direct those films. 28 Days Later was directed by Danny Boyle and Dredd was directed by Pete Travis Bilbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
