I saw it, I think Julianne Moore deserves and Oscar, but not for that.

I agree. I like Jualianne's performance, but I wouldn't give it an oscar.

[Moniker Jones]

Does anyone remember who Emma Thompson is?

yeah

but she read Duck Sauce's advice, and is now waiting 3 years between films

[Pastor Parsley]

New Details Emerge Concerning Wes Anderson's New Film

As pre-production on Anderson's new film The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou continues in America and Italy, more details about the film are coming out. The film, which will star Bill Murray and Owen Wilson, follows the relationship of a famous oceanographer and his estranged son, while they and the father's motley crew embark on a series of wild adventures.

The Life Aquatic will mark the first time in Anderson's career that he has not collaborated with Owen Wilson on the screenplay. Anderson's writing partner this time is writer/director Noah Baumbach, whose film The Squid and The Whale Anderson has signed on as producer.

In the Anderson tradition, Zissou's crew will include a number of quirky characters. Pele, a Brazilian man in his late 20s or early 30s, will bear a resemblance to the famed soccer player Pele. His character likes to play guitar and is a fantastic singer. Twentysomething Anne-Marie Sakowitz is young, tough, sharp, thin, boyish, smart, determined. Possibly is of European or Israeli background, Anne-Marie often walks around the ship topless, although she is not voluptuous. Wolodarsky, in his thirties, is both a physicist and a composer, with an offbeat, mad scientist quality. He is definately an eccentric, interesting presence on the ship. Bobby Ogata, in his mid twenties, hails from Japan. Bobby is athletic and a bit of an innocent. The currently unnamed teenaged Intern will be smart, charming, aggressive and earnest.

Shooting is scheduled to being at Rome's famed Cinecitta Studios, home to many of Federico Fellini's movies, this August. Disney will distribute the film in the fall of 2004.

hmmmmmmm........I believe I'm in

one of the few cinematic experiences I'm looking forward to

[Ghostboy]

Wolodarsky must be named after Wally Wolodarsky, who Wes mentioned in the RT commentary as being the original choice for Bill Murray's young case study, unitl he got a job directing a movie himself. The title of the movie was not mentioned, but it was...Sorority Boys.

It's going to be animated? Or the guy that's doing the set design just happens to be an animator? I don't get any of that. What the hell is stop motion animation anyway?

Glad to hear about Goldblum and Bud Cort and Angelica Huston though, this is going to be cool as hell unless it's animation.
