MOVIE DISCUSSION:
Kathryn joins Melvin to discuss Bottle Rocket, Wes Anderson's first feature-length film! The vibes are cozy and the dramedy is light, and the two get into discussions about classism (go figure!), easy-to-watch films, and what it is about Wes Anderson that makes him so mainstream.
Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 23-minutes discussing Darren Aronofsky's AI-Slop studio "Primordial Soup" which specializes in producing "stories" and "art" through AI programs (LLMs and AGIs a la Chat-GPT and Midjourney) and how this endeavor is actually anti-art. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- Kathryn has stated that Bottle Rocket is her favorite Wes Anderson movie. Is this still true?
- It's nice to watch a Wes Anderson movie where he isn't overly controlling everything.
- Talking classism, adulthood, maturity, & empathy.
- Melvin isn't so sure he likes Wes Anderson's movies as much as everyone else, and he spends some time thinking what it is others see in them.
- Talking about Dignan, Anthony, and the unique characters therein.
- The climax of the film feels like a great representation of what Wes Anderson does best.
