Songs For An Imaginary Wes Anderson Movie
Music Buzz NPR recently did a feature on how the “Moonrise Kingdom” director develops his amazing, moody soundtracks. The “Wes Anderson sound” is impossible to nail down to one era or genre alone, although a healthy dose of forgotten or under-appreciated '60s-'70s rockers is a requirement… Mostly, though, all of his soundtracks share a certain, specific je ne sais quoi that I wanted to try to recreate for my fantasy soundtrack.

What If Wes Anderson Directed The Movie "Battleship"?
Movie Buzz Apparently, there is an even dumber way to do a film adaptation of Battleship. On the plus side, this would have a way better soundtrack I guess.

Wes Anderson's “Moonrise Kingdom”
Movie Buzz The first trailer for Anderson's latest film is online. In addition to all of the standard Anderson touches (muted color palette, Jason Schwartzman, deadpan, and Bill Murray), the film also has Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, and Tilda Swinton. It takes place at camp. It looks like a fun time.

The Royal Tenenbaums’ House
Culture Buzz The A.V. Club traveled to the Royal Tenenbaums' brownstone located in Harlem and created a short but interesting travel doc to go along with their visit. I also included a Google Map to the Wes Anderson fan's equivalent of Graceland as well in case you wanted to make a visit.

Link: Did Max Fischer Write The Life Aquatic?
http://maxwrotelifeaquatic.tumblr.com/
![[link]](http://s3-ak.buzzfed.com/static/images/public/icons/external-link2.png)
This Tumblr argues that Max Fischer is actually the author of The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Are they onto something or is it just a crazy theory?

Image: If Bill Murray Played Every Character In Wes Anderson’s Films
It would probably look something like this. These are Casey Weldon's paintings for the upcoming ‘Bad Dads’ art tribute to the films of Wes Anderson. She based her paintings on the notion, “What if it could be all Murray, all the time?” Visit Casey’s blog for larger versions of each painting.

Video: Wes Anderson-Y Save The Date
Hayden and Sean are getting married next April, and instead of putting their faces on a magnet, they made this video. The cat wrangling at the end is pretty impressive.

Wes Anderson’s Undergrad Short Story from 1989
Culture Buzz It's called the “Ballad of Reading Milton.” I'm just now realizing he looks exactly like a cross between Thurston Moore and Tilda Swinton.

Video: Wes Anderson’s Stella Artois Commercial
It has more swagger than usual, for a Wes (and Roman Coppola) thing. Still heavily reliant on short pants and a a warm palette, though. p.s. Does anyone else think WA ghost-directed this Target commercial?

Video: Wes Anderson Trailer
For a film-school project, Alex Cornell and Phil Mills made this promo for a (fictional) Wes Anderson film festival in the style of The Royal Tenenbaums. I think they totally nailed it, from the quirky, upbeat tone of the voiceover right down to the multiple quick pans and the distinctive title font. (Via Kottke.)

Video: Famous Sketches Retold By Famous Directors
The internet will not stop until everything has been Wes Anderson-ified, but these are still pretty amusing. The Quentin Tarantino at the end is the best, I think, so persevere.
