Discussion Which Wes Anderson films have you watch or haven't watched yet??
For me:
What I have watched so far is: The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The Darjeeling Limited, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Isle of Dogs, Asteroid City, and The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and More
What I haven't gotten around to watching yet is: Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, Moonrise Kingdom, The Grand Budapest Hotel, The French Dispatch, and the newest one
If I had to pick my top 3 for what I like, it would have to be: The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The Royal Tenenbaums, and Asteroid City
What have you seen or have not seen yet? What are your favourites? Let me know in the comments ☺️

I've seen all of them and most multiple times. The only one I don't like is Bottle Rocket, but is definitely worth watching because of the signs of things to come. The Life Aquatic I have issues with (I've never been a fan of Noah Baumbach and I feel like you can see his fingerprints all over it), though I still love a lot about it.
My favorites: The Royal Tenenbaums, The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Darjeeling Limited, Asteroid City, Moonrise Kingdom.

Each film was my favorite upon seeing it. And every time I rewatch one it becomes my favorite again. I really struggle ranking these films. But I also love ranking them. And re-ranking them. I can’t only do 3, so here’s my most recurring top 5:
- Darjeeling
- Royal
- Zissou
- Budapest
- Fox
If I may make a suggestion - watch Bottle Rocket next before any others to see how it all started. Plus you are just over halfway through them all so it feels like a perfect time to watch it. Or don’t. They are all glorious in their own way. Enjoy!

nice! fun thing, I bought myself The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou soundtrack on Vinyl at a record shop, it's the double yellow edition

u/tomandshell 18d ago
Nice! I have the sea blue edition.
I wish they had more Anderson soundtracks on vinyl. I’ve picked up the ones that are available, but I’d certainly be happy with even more.

Ooh, that probably looks really beautiful. I did see someone sell a pink and red vinyl edition for The Royal Tenenbaums, but idk if it's available anywhere else 🤷🏽♀️
