I am excited to see dogs in a Wes Anderson movie that (presumably) don't meet an untimely end.

Any Wes Anderson is good Wes Anderson, and I loved Fantastic Mr. Fox, but I too feel a smidge of disappointment that we'll have to wait for another live-action film from him. Of course, my disappointment is almost entirely because I want him to work on a feature-length film with Darius Khondji already.

I had no idea you were that turned on by waffles.

I don't think I've laughed harder at a Coens movie than I did at Brad Pitt's demise (and that brilliantly goofy "okay, ya got me" look right before) in Burn After Reading.

Have you seen the Coens' short "World Cinema"? It's basically "Llewelyn Moss goes to the movies", and Brolin really nails it.

I know, right? That alone has me super-excited for this (not that Deakins' work on digital wasn't/isn't crazypants amazing).

"What do you keep looking at me for? No hablas ingles, remember?"

To be fair, Hail Caesar comes out in February. Also, we should talk about the Hail Caesar trailer instead of this.

Oh man, I just realized/was told that the movie studio at the center of this is the same one that was in Barton Fink. Hopefully the writer is still king at Capitol Pictures.

My frequent visits to the movie's Wikipedia page sadly means that I've figured out who the Future are. Of course, I don't think anyone has walked out of a Coen brothers comedy thinking "Oh man, the plot to that movie was so good!" (that's not a complaint, by the way), so I think I can manage.

There is nothing about that that I don't want to see immediately. The Coens, Roger Deakins working in 35mm again, Bigfoot Bjornsen, George Clooney playing a dummy, ScarJo doing the same Hepburn impression Jennifer Jason Leigh did in The Hudsucker Proxy, Chan-fried Po-Taters basically playing Gene Kelly (in a sailor

I admit, I clicked on this solely to see if he mentioned A Serious Man. What a great, great movie that is, and he is great in it.

See, I get what he's saying. Other than the moment when Riggan sending the vase against the wall goes into him being interviewed (I may be forgetting something), most of the transitions between days are just time-lapse shots, which don't really make it seem like "one long blur of a day" and seem, to me (and to Mike,

I'm not sure books and music would be his media either ("Oh great, another track change, now they've moved the equipment around!").

Not to mention another tour of del Toro's memorabilia-filled estate.

Oh shit, this jeopardizes my chances of getting free tickets to The Revenant. I'M SORRY AGI I LOVE YOUR MOVIE PLEASE FORGIVE MY SNAPPING AT YOUR ANNOYING INTERNET ALTER EGOS

Can't help you there, I adore The Master.

I'm not going to lie, these comments almost make me want to hate Birdman out of spite.

…That they're also opinions?
