The Phoenician Scheme

2025

★★★★ Liked Watched

I just refuse to buy into the concept that all of Wes Anderson’s movies are the same. They all work for me in their own ways and I think his later works have been some of his most philosophical. Overstays its welcome just a bit in the end but I enjoyed the journey to get there.

Mia Threapleton is a star and I hope Michael Cera is inducted into the Wes crew now because he fits in so perfectly here.

There are multiple points in this where Del Toro’s voiceover sounded exactly like in Hackman in Tenenbaums and it felt like home!

Lilo & Stitch

2025

★★★ Watched

Certainly not the worst live action Disney remake but it doesn’t come close to capturing the magic of the original. I’ve always found I just loved the character of Stitch maybe more than the movie and this just solidified that. He’s kind of the only thing that actually works here? He’s still cute and hits me in the feelings but everything else around him in this movie is bland? It’s set in one of the most beautiful places on Earth…
