We finally get to the David Cronenberg section of The Life Aquatic coverage. Willem Dafoe worked with Mr. Cronenberg on the film eXistenZ and delivered a creepy performance. Creepy performances in films like Shadow of the Vampire, Auto Focus and Wild at Heart seem to be Dafoes stock in trade but for Wes Andersons The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou he trades all that in...

Im not sure what to say about Owen Wilson. Ever since I first saw him in Bottle Rocket I have thought he was hilarious and brilliant. His movies with Ben Stiller like Zoolander and Meet the Parents are some of my favorite films of all time. Its good to see him put aside that smarmy knowing persona that he has perfected in numerous movies over...

Should I be lusting after Angelica Huston, a woman thats almost twice my age? I dont know if its a holdover from when she used to glide across the room as Morticia Addams but she is wicked sexy. Plus now that she is an intimate part of the Wes Anderson oeuvre it makes her even sexier. She has a serious lock on the loving ice...

I first heard of Wes Anderson when watching the 1996 MTV Movie Awards. They announced that the Best New Filmmaker was going to Wes Anderson for the movie Bottle Rocket. When that tall lanky dude with the coke bottle glasses accepted the award I still had no idea what movie they were talking about. Later that year I rented Bottle Rocket and was blown away...

Wes Anderson is my favourite director, and Life Aquatic is my favourite of his films

That man is the reason I became a film maker, He is just a genius. This has made my day. Good work SG.
No one comedian has had more influence on my life than Bill Murray, both personally and professionally. I have seen many of the movies that Bill Murray starred in the 1980s, such as Caddyshack, Stripes and Ghostbusters, a minimum of 50 times apiece, probably a lot more. Much of the way I crack jokes, the way I move my face to emphasize something and even...

will you need to have any surgery? i am sure i will develop it eventually, as much as i type. i didn't make it up there with enough time to do anything, i think i was there like 14 hours or something. i am planning on coming back as soon as i can. when are you getting married? i know it's soon, i hope everything is moving smoothly. catch me on AIM sometime, we can talk about some of that stuff...you know, that guy. lol.
Whether he likes it or not because of the movies hes written, 25th Hour and Troy, David Benioff is a hot Hollywood screenwriter. But of course like all novelists hes got to eventually go back to his roots and for Benioff its his short stories. Eight of his best shorts have been collected into the book When The Nines Roll Over. Just as a small...

interesting guy. i loved 25th hour, and at least his love of the comics should make for a decent wolverine flick. i'm a bit wary of comic book adaptations recently, i think catwoman has scarred me. 
Don Cheadle is a very well known and brilliant supporting actor in such films as Out of Sight, Boogie Nights and Devil in a Blue Dress but he has yet to have that lead role that will truly launch him, until now. Cheadle is now starring in Hotel Rwanda the true life story of Paul Rusesabagina who housed thousands of refugees during the civil War...

Here's some good books if anyone is interested in reading more about the genocide in Rwanda:
"The Rwanda Crisis" by Gerard Prunier
"Shake Hands with the Devil" by Romeo Dalliere (UN commander)
"Season of Blood" by Fergal Keane (BBC reporter)
"Leave None to Tell the Story" by Alison Des Forges (Human Rights Watch)
"The Key to My Neighbor's House" by Elizabeth Neuffer (Boston Globe Reporter)
"We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families" by Philip Gourevitch (New Yorker reporter)
I would also recommend the two documentaries PBS's Frontline produced, one is called "Ghosts of Rwanda" which aired last year and there is another (I forget the title) which aired seven or eight years ago.

John Waters is the legendary director of Pink Flamingos, Hairspray and Cecil B. DeMented. His latest film is the NC-17 rated A Dirty Shame which pits a sex crazed cult versus the upright neuters in Baltimore.

I love John Waters Tooo!!! He is the only man I drool over...yeah that's right I want him...I own ALL of his films and the best IMO is Desperate Living. Pink Flamingos, Polyester, Mulitple Maniacs, Mondo Trasho...all great but Desperate Living takes the cake. 
I love this man!!

It' scary hearing a nice guy like Freaks & Geeks creator Paul Feig get all bitter but thats what happens when you work in Hollywood. After spending three years developing, writing and directing the feature film I Am David but its only in a limited release in the United States. But if you Midwestern Feig fans want the movie to go wider, go buy some...

man i loved freaks and geeks! the dvd is awesome. i signed that petition and bought it the first day it was available! great stuff!

Paul Feig is probably one of the coolest guys ever. You people should buy tickets to his show in the midwest even if you don't live there! Buy it online. Anyways, he's getting constantly screwed by Hollywood, so help the man out because he produces some of the best stuff ever.
The French Kicks features Washington D.C. natives Matt Stinchcomb and Josh Wise who are the guitarists/vocalists, bassist Jamie Krents, and drummer/vocalist Nick Stumpf. They are an excellent band that is getting a lot of press due to their rabid fanbase and easy attitudes. Their newest album is Trial of the Century.
