    No need to make an argument for it for me - it's one of my favorite movies. I always cry at the end.

    I had no idea that people didn't like the Life Aquatic, I can understand how some people might not like Wes Anderson's style as a whole, but to pick out a single movie out of his excellent lineup to dislike seems bizarre to me

    • @BREADSWORD
      @BREADSWORD  6 років тому +76

      IT'S SERIOUSLY CRAZY TO ME DUDE I HAD TO CUT IT FROM THE SCRIPT AS A MENTION BUT IT'S GENUINELY BIZARRE TO ME THAT ITS CRITICAL AGGREGATE SCORE IS BENEATH 60%

      @sgamerxbox360 6 років тому +32

      Really? It's in my top 3 Wes Anderson films and at least in my top 20 favourite films of all time. I don't see how it is so badly received from a critical standpoint.

    • @Alistoriv
      @Alistoriv 6 років тому +7

      Same! I like it more than any other Wes Anderson movie I've seen and loved it the first time I saw it. I was astounded when I saw that it was so widely disliked. I'm really thankful that youtube recommended me this video

    • @Alistoriv
      @Alistoriv 5 років тому +8

      Iis Arman It's interesting that ralphthemoviemaker would say that because I've always felt kinda similarly about some of his other movies, i.e. that they get caught up in their own quirkiness.

    • @Jamesp1972

    I love how Ned starts with an N. And Zissou starts with a Z. They are kindred spirits, and it doesn’t matter if Ned was his biological son or not, because they shared a love from afar they got to express on their journey. Ned got to go on an adventure with his idol. And Steve Zissou got his spark back

      while I'm not 100% sure if it's my favorite (it's definitely up there on an unranked top 10 if I were to make one) it DOES feel like if any film on the planet were made specifically for an audience of me, it'd be this one

  • @wosso3342
    @wosso3342 3 роки тому +14

    I see such a big connection between Steve Zissou and Bojack Horseman. Both characters are on the surface awful human beings but both characters drag so much grief and history with them that you know they could be better, you know how they became the person they are now and you know that they can still come back from it. Two of the most emotionally powerful characters ever created and both were misunderstood when people first saw them.

    People say that when someone says something like that, it's because they're jealous. But it still hurts. It hurts bad.

      *throws earring* *holds out hand to receive it, after his son picks it up, without looking or saying thank you* classic Zissou.

  • @lucidexistance1
    @lucidexistance1 6 років тому +85

    This is the movie that made me start paying attention to Wes Anderson. It's still my favorite honestly. It's certainly one of the films I've watched well over 20 times in my life. It's been a good while now though.

  • @nighteyes5683
    @nighteyes5683 6 років тому +37

    Even in an analysis video, devoid of context, I started tearing up at the jaguar-shark/everybody-hold-out-a-hand-and-touch-Zissou scene. Not crying, mind you. But definitely feeling it. God, such a good movie.
    And (in my opinion) Anderson's funniest, too.

      I think it must’ve been jarring for people, it was his first big steps into a world of hyper reality. Now with so many animation credits under his belt, if this came out more recently, it would be much better received I think.

  • @JoJoJoker
    @JoJoJoker 3 роки тому +5

    Life Aquatic is a fantastic film I’ve watched countless times. It was misunderstood at the time. A beautifully shot, acted, and written movie. A perfect companion for The Tenenbaums. film.
    Wes Anderson was unfairly accused of relying upon a budget to replace creativity as if it were the cinematic version of The Doors’ Soft Parade.

  • @dildonius
    @dildonius 3 роки тому +16

    I wasn't aware that _The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou_ NEEDED someone to make an "argument for" it. I was under the impression that it was universally considered to be an all around classic of cinema and one of Wes Anderson's absolute BEST - quite possibly his BEST EVER. _PERIOD._
    Even if it got shit from critics when it first came out, it has been vindicated since coming out by basically EVERYBODY. Including most of, maybe even ALL of, the people who shat on it when it first came out...

  • @ColeRees
    @ColeRees 5 років тому +10

    Great review! This movie is so fantastic. My personal favorite of any film out there :) I saw another person talking about the path of Eleanore, specifically when they buried Ned at sea. Do you believe she was mourning the death of her wish-it-could-have-been-hers child?
    To me it felt like her decision to come rejoin the team and fund the rest of their mission was her telling Ned that she was ready to be his new mother and Steve the father. I believe that the reason she left in the first place was not just because of the argument they had but because she wasn’t sure of herself in being ready for a maternal role. That’s why she needed breathing room. When Ned’s casket floated down, she was watching and mourning with no one around her. She felt alone in the world. But she also wanted the privilege of seeing her son last.
    Let me know what you think!

    • @jlonzoy
      @jlonzoy Рік тому +2

      Totally agree... it was the same thing I thought. Even, when she tells Jane that Steve was infertile, it was clear that, more than a statement, it was a lie that she had told herself to explain why Steve did not want to have a child with her...

  • @protectioncircle8696
    @protectioncircle8696 4 роки тому

    That you for making these videos. They speak of an old nostalgia for people in their twenty or thirty something's, remembering nights as children looking out the windows of a car at night with the hum of a radio in the background and the tired expectation that maybe something fun might happen before bed, before inevitably passing out. It's the feeling of being at a slumber party wanting to stay up late, yet still sleeping despite that. It's old and friendly. And I miss it.

  • @snerdterguson
    @snerdterguson Місяць тому

    Wes Anderson for me created the greatest prologue in film history with the first 10 or so minutes of Royal Tenenbaums, the most unexpected and beautifully emotional scene in history with the Jaguar Shark scene in Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, "Do you think he remembers me" gets me every damn time. He's one of, if not the only directors where you can pull any screenshot from basically any of their films and you instantly know it is from a Wes Anderson film. Such a completely unique feel, aesthetic and mood. I've yet to see one of his films I didn't like. He is probably my favorite filmmaker ever.
    He is nearly unparalleled in soundtrack selections. And because of his films, I am now an appreciative of classical pieces like Claire De Lune and the Gymnopedeis, non English renditions of Bowie and have a deeper appreciation for artists I already enjoyed like The Faces, John Lennon, The Kinks, etc. His casting is beyond reproach. Is there a single casting choice that wasn't basically perfect? Actors I love have their best work with him, Murray, Hackman, Huston. Actors I was never particularly a fan of put in great performances like Ben Stilled and Gwyneth Paltrow.
    Every time I learn there's a new Wes Anderson film coming, I get a sense of joy and wonder at the thought of what weird little troupe of characters we will get to peek in at this time.
    Already said it, but damn. The guys got basically a perfect record.

    I didn't expect this and I am so glad. I've seen most Wes Anderson movies but I really need to check this one out now. Keep up the good work dude.
