The cast in this... Penciling this in. Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: K9 on October 17, 2013, 03:54:16 PM Aha, I was just looking for a trailer for this yesterday. It looks rather good doesn't it?
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: sickrubik on October 17, 2013, 04:17:44 PM I'm an incredibly easy mark for Wes Anderson, bit this.... this looks fantastic. If it holds up, it could really be the defining point of refining his style. Going to be very hard to beat Moonrise Kingdom, but... this looks good.
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Brofellos on October 20, 2013, 07:05:12 AM So fucking excited, but understatedly so
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Shannow on October 28, 2013, 11:23:05 AM SNL's Wes Anderson trailer (http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/new-horror-trailer/n42349/)
This was pretty darn good (except for Edward Norton's Owen Wilson impersonation which sounded more like Woody Allen). Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Ingmar on October 28, 2013, 01:46:24 PM Not such a stretch, given Woody Allen cast Owen Wilson in the Woody Allen role in Midnight in Paris.
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Threash on October 28, 2013, 01:55:06 PM The cast in this... ...is the same cast as every Wes Anderson movie? so yeah, a must watch. Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Zetor on October 28, 2013, 11:55:16 PM As a Budapest resident, I have to raise an objection about this completely unrealistic depiction of Glorious Hungary. :why_so_serious:
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Ingmar on May 25, 2014, 08:54:14 PM Just got around to seeing this before it finally left local theaters; thought it was fantastic basically top to bottom. The performances, costumes, camera work, miniatures, and especially the soundtrack - everything was pretty much great. Recommended.
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Ozzu on July 11, 2014, 03:36:12 AM I saw this a few days back and came away really happy. I already have a great love for Wes Anderson movies, but this one might be his best to date. I also think it might be his most accessible movie for those who haven't been able to get into his movies in the past.
In summary: Do you like Wes Anderson movies? Watch it. Do you dislike Wes Anderson movies? Go ahead and watch it. Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Surlyboi on July 11, 2014, 10:13:33 PM The wife hated it, thought it was boring.
We disagreed. Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Nebu on July 14, 2014, 08:02:45 AM SNL's Wes Anderson trailer (http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/new-horror-trailer/n42349/) This was pretty darn good (except for Edward Norton's Owen Wilson impersonation which sounded more like Woody Allen). That was pretty hilarious. Watched this movie on Friday and really enjoyed it. The movie was gorgeous, the story was fun, and the characters were well done. Rushmore may still be my fav, but this one was close. Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Thrawn on July 14, 2014, 11:46:11 AM Watched this with my wife, both didn't care for it. I enjoyed Moonrise Kingdom more. Grand Budapest just felt like a Wes Anderson circle jerk to me. Everything was so over the top that style that it felt like a parody of itself and it was just boring to me.

I liked it, though I don't think it is as good as *Moonrise Kingdom* was. Mrs. Naum was not impressed, however, as it was all just too quirky for her. Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Teleku on July 15, 2014, 12:41:55 AM Saw it, loved it. One of the most enjoyable films I've seen in a long time. First Wes Anderson movie I've seen as well, so now I'm tempted to finally watch some of the others. The trailers for Moonrise Kingdom made it look like a borning wierd circle jerk of a movie, but if its anything like this, I'll give it a go.
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Ruvaldt on July 18, 2014, 06:32:56 AM If you liked it, you'll probably like the rest of Wes Anderson's movies. It is pretty indicative of his style. Don't limit yourself just to Moonrise Kingdom though. He's got a great body of work.

The trailers for Moonrise Kingdom made it look like a borning wierd circle jerk of a movie, but if its anything like this, I'll give it a go. All of his movies are weird circlejerks. But the writing and acting makes up for it. Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: lamaros on July 20, 2014, 10:04:27 PM Yeah I thought this one was ergh. Only film I've really liked is Life Acquatic.
Title: Re: The Grand Budapest Hotel Post by: Brofellos on July 22, 2014, 06:53:37 AM Life aquatic is my favorite movie, so I always judge his films against that standard, which may be a mistake. This one was a little too...I dunno, overdone.
