I never would have expected a Wes Anderson film to lead off a Trailer Watch week.

Moonrise Kingdom

Rating: None
Commentary: Poster was a placeholder at the time this post was written.
Rating: B+
Commentary: I’m not a huge Wes Anderson fan. Fantastic Mr. Fox is probably the only film of theirs I’ve seen that really ignites my imagination. However, unlike many of his recent projects, this one looks like it might be so quirky that it’s fun. And for a trailer, it makes the film look like a modernized version of something Jean-Luc Godard might have directed.
Preview Link: CLICK HERE for link to the trailer, more posters (if available) and other commentary not featured here.
Oscar Chances: Anderson has never been an Oscar magnet and while the film could end up on some Original Screenplay prediction lists, I don’t think the film’s going to make it all the way to the Oscars.
