i havent seen life aquatic - it didnt appeal to me - and i havent watched my copy of lost in translation yet ...
i agree on The Royal Tannenbaums though.
i'd just seen so many of these quirky little films that i wasnt
in the mood for this one ..
(I heart Huckabees was an exception - it was more unique than the others)
when hal hartly, jim jarmuch, and a couple of other filmmakers started making these types of character films they were fresh and new - but after seeing a bunch of them - they get tiresome ..
quirky for the sake of quirky is like anything else ..when it seems contrived and too aware of itself it stops working.
