    Duuuuh, I know.

    But I saw the free prequel movie I downloaded on iTunes and saw the movie today.

    Visually stunning, well done. I'd put it behind RUSHMORE and TENENBAUMS. I know a lot of people are love/hate with Wes Anderson, but I walked away happy.

    Count me among those who enjoyed The Life Aquatic.

    I didn't like it the first time I saw it, but upon the second and third times viewing I thought it was a great movie.

    Loved Zissou. I've been stoked about Darjeeling since I saw the preview.

    Anderson's humor is one-of-a-kind, and his soundtrack choices are impeccable.

    And how can you not like the guy after watching this?

    I didn't care for Bottle Rocket, but I love the rest of Anderson's movies.

    Love that Wes ad, but I'll call you with a Marty:

    Didn't like Tenenbaums and wasn't wild about Bottle Rocket, but Rushmore and Zissou are two of my absolute favorites.

    Can't wait to see Darjeeling.

    Loved Life Aquatic. Bought a Team Zissou t-shirt the other day.

    Tenenbaums is still my favorite of his movies, though.

    I thought Life Aquatic was great. I hated Rushmore on first viewing, but I've learned to tolerate.

    Interesting director.

    I thought Tenenbaums was unwatchable.
