Fall Movie Excitement! Fantastic Mr. Fox

Release: November 25th

I've never been one to verbally ess the dee of director Wes Anderson, but I do enjoy those movies of his that I have seen (which I'm sorry Rod is not quite all of them) and think that his style is unforgettable and infinitely recognizable in the best way. So that The Fantastic Mr. Fox is being directed by him has me a little bit more excited than if it were being directed by some newber, but the real thrill for me will be to see a film done in traditional stop-motion animation. The look and feel of Mr. Fox that you get from the trailer is perfect so imagining the large scale stop-motion assault of the full length movie has me pretty charged up.

Following Clooney on the IMDb credits is a list 10 actors long of names you may recognize: Meryl Streep, Owen Wilson, Brian Cox, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, the list goes on and on. With Mr. Fox basically bursting at the seams with talent it's impossible to not be mad pumped to see what Wes will do this time.

Fall Movie Excitement! The Men Who Stare At Goats

Release: November 6th

Comedy.

Read as 'Comedy, Period'. The cast is laden with comedy gold in the form of George Clooney, Ewan McGregpaddle, and the Dude himself Jeff Bridges who appears to even be channeling his Dudeness for his hippied out military role in The Men Who Stare At Goats. 

Based on a true story, the movie is about an elite group of "psychic" warriors, one of which may actually be able to do some damage. That sounds like the plot of a bad sci-fi movie, but in this case with Clooney and Ewan teaming up it's promising hilarity at every turn.

Didn't realize how little I had to say about this movie other than "Wow, this looks awesome and hilarious" so I'll leave it at that.
