Great recipe...except you DON'T boil spaghetti for 25 minutes you neanderthal...8-10 minutes more al dente...and also steam the dogs...not boil...

You need to STFU.

The 25 minute part is the key to this recipe.

If you're going to call someone a moron at least spell it right

Funnier than the GET A BRAIN MORANS meme is that crash -crash-motherfucking-course - is correcting anyone on spelling or grammar.

Now, THAT is comedy.

THE LIFE AQUATIC (2004)
d. Wes Anderson
Starring: Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Cate Blanchett, Angelica Huston, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum

I've seen every Wes Anderson movie released before 2015 at this point and this is my least favorite. This is everything that Wes Anderson haters loathe about his movies. It's quirky for the sake of being quirky and just plain weird. It's a bizarre parody of Jacques Cousteau made some 15 years after Jacques Cousteau was relevant. When Jeff Goldblum or Willem Dafoe are around, they're kind of funny, but most of your time is spent exploring the father/son relationship between Bill Murray and Owen Wilson, and neither of them really are. It's TOO deadpan for it's own good.

If someone had never seen a Wes Anderson film I would probably tell them to watch anything BUT this one first

See how many ABC tv stars you can recognize in this bonkers, incredibly corny, promo commercial from 1980

THE DARJEELING LIMITED (2007)
d. Wes Anderson
Starring: Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman, Amara Karan, Angelica Huston

Owen Wilson invites his estranged brothers to join him on a "spiritual journey" through India on a train ride in the wake of their father's death.

Of all Wes Anderson's movies prior to about 2015, this was the only one I had not seen a second of and knew practically nothing about. I found myself enjoying it more than I expected and without a doubt more than the better known Life Aquatic. That might be because the cast is scaled down way more than the previous film. Only the three brothers are really around in all three acts with the train basically being abandoned midway through. Even though they're quirky Wes Anderson characters I think the relationship between the three of them comes off as more real and genuine than most of these movies.

I'd recommend it just because I think this might be the least watched of his better known films. It's better than I was expecting and if you hate the large cast/wacky deadpan character films you might like this more. It appears to have been genuinely shot in India for large portions and doesn't feature many of the deliberately artificial sets many of his movies use.

Re-upped my T-Mobile. I get free NetFlix with them and they had a promo for a free year of Paramount +.

Paramount + has a series called “Strange New Worlds.” It’s a prequel to the original series with Captain Christopher Pike at the helm. It is pretty good if you are a fan of TOS.
