Your films are poseurtastic wannabe middle brow shite, the cinematic equivalent of Catcher In The Cunting Rye, please fuck off and die.

Discuss.

Oh come on, Rushmore and Royal Tenenbaums were decent.
Are you trying to be like Jack in this thread?

No, Jack probably like's his shite.

Seriously I fucking detest the smug cunts ohh so 'subtle dry humour' which isn't as clever as the prick thinks and the contrived quirkiness of his films gets my back up.

Rushmore was alright but Royal Tenenbaums and Bottle Rocket left me utterly cold.

Good attack. I'm going to use this whenever someone doesn't like something I like.

Thing is I don't even "like" this Anderson lad, I just don't care and the two films of his I have seen were pretty good.
I don't doubt he's a wanker though, but aren't most people?

When we first came to Belfast weren't you obsessed with Royal Tennebaums?

"Turn off Alan Partridge Jack, Ed and Gav, I hate that shit, we should watch Royal Tennebaums by this amazing director Wes Anderson."

I can prove that's true, because Conor heard it too.

Not only did I hear Revol say those exact words but i have it recorded and anyone who wants to hear it when they meet me can listen to the playback via my Revol voice.

Fuck he was so buzzing the whole week after you guys were over
"Ah Conor, wasn't it amazing when Jack and Ed and Gav were over and we were smoking drugs and getting the munchies and everything. That was the best. I love those guys"

But only to act as proof to his assertion that he was, infact, Dr Greenthumb.

Whatever else it may have been it was a decision steeped in logic.

Fuck you.

A PGCE and half way through a funded PhD, seriously, suck my chopper, I'm in a job that bores me shitless, with no prospects of moving elsewhere, stuck in the IT sector that I know fuck all about and am not qualified in.

Altho to be fair, I was far, far lower than you were 3 years ago. grin

okay then what's your views on Wes Anderson's movies then, I mean since you are soo upset about this thread being derailed into a Jack and xConorx nostalgia trip.

not upset at all, just commenting. i'm actually rather fond of both jack and xconorx. re wes anderson - i could take them or leave them. entertaining, but nothing to get excited over. he does look like a prick though.
