I love how Plex lists The Life Aquatic and Fantastic Mr. Fox as "related movies"
I don't know who ended up with the actual statuette, incidentally. Most of us just got certificates, suitable for framing, and I know the statuette was living at the office for a while and there was some debate about who should receive it since it's supposed to go to individuals, not organizations, but the thing in question didn't really have any specific central creator.
Hollywood politics are weird.
@fluffy what a thing to just casually drop lmao
@ChlorideCull it's one of my favorite things to do. http://beesbuzz.biz/comics/journal/good_things/882-October-2017-Never-gets-old
@fluffy amazing
@fluffy should've passed it around, everyone gets to have it a week at a time
alternatively, should've taken out a hacksaw and given everyone an equal slice
@ChlorideCull ah, the King Solomon approach
Yes? Wes Anderson is practically a genre in himself, no matter the subject matter.
@Cerulean sure, but it's a weird thing to recommend his movies as 'related' to American Psycho
Ah. I hadn't picked up on that context, I thought it was about relating them to each other.
@Cerulean ah yeah I see how my toot could read that way out of context
@fluffy Are they not made by the same person? And if the comedy of the one tickles you, you should enjoy the other. I certainly love them both.
@StrangeMouse you are not the first person to read this toot without the context of the previous toot
@fluffy Ohhhhhh. Ok, that *is* strange.
@fluffy They're kind of related in terms of absurdist motif
@raantuva to American Psycho?
@fluffy Yes. I read the thread. There's an undercurrent of pure nonsense and wildness in all three.
@raantuva also I guess Fantastic Mr Fox does involve dismemberment as part of its main plot too
@fluffy I'm not talking details, I'm speaking to the broader philosophy in all of them. I do find it strange they compared it to two Wes Anderson films. They ALL have that same undercurrent. Why not Moonrise Kingdom or Bottle Rocket instead. Kinda weird.
@raantuva why not those two movies is because I don’t have them on my plex server
But I have way more absurdist horror that would have made much more sensible suggestions
@fluffy Ohhhh lol
I mean I guess they're related in that they're on the same hard drive but uh
