On and off the wagon


My Wes Anderson experience

Part 1

For years I refused to watch films such as “The Royal Tenenbaums”, “Rushmore” and “The Life Aquatic” due to the name alone. Recently I noticed on a co-workers personal page a shrine to such films. So in my usual fashion of not knowing any better I went over to him and basically attacked him. Talking such shit without knowing what I was saying, for instance “those movies suck”, “who watches that shit?”, “that is the stupidest movie ever”. Well then he began to plead his case that I didn’t understand the movies that is why I didn’t like them. So he was attacking my character and knowledge at the same time, so I figured I needed some more information to back myself up on this one.

So I tracked down someone who had the movies, I am not cheap in any way, in fact I have been told that I am the richest mother fucker most people know, but I was not going to spend my hard earned cash on movies that I was so sure were going to suck major balls. So I got my hands on “Tenenbaums” and “Rushmore”, made myself a copy and sat down to watch……..
