But yea, if you want to take a walk down THE ROAD, the book is recommended, although the film may play better if you've not read the book, which is indeed one of the best of the decade (at least out of the books I've read lately..) dan don’t go by the trailer, it is hogwash and not representative of the film.

I really enjoyed Fantastic Mr. Fox as well. Truthfully, I was beginning to grow weary of Wes Anderson movies. I didn't hate The Darjeeling Limited, but the narcissistic characters, covert ethnocentrism, and patented Wes Anderson style kind of rubbed me the wrong way. However, I thought his aesthetic worked like gangbusters in Mr. Fox. I reveled in the composition of each frame, the crazy amount of detail like you guys mentioned. Loved all the Wes Anderson fast pans, the majority all at straight angles, and side scrolling shots, which lent the movie such a retro/quaint/classic feel that simultaneously felt fresh amongst the glut of CGI features being released. The score kicked ass also, and I dug the scaled-back soundtrack choices. Haven't seen The Road yet (probably will this week), but from your discussion I'm tempted to skip the flick and just pick up the book. For some reason I haven't been too excited to see The Road, and I'm all about post-apocalyptic stories. The kid in the trailer seems too blonde or too precious or something. Nice show, fellers.

Feels like a bit of a weird year this year. Guess we'll get a better sense once the Globes are announced.
