He was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for The Royal Tenenbaums in 2001 and Moonrise Kingdom in 2012, and for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature for Fantastic Mr. Fox but this is what we take away from his movies.

1. Hotel Chevalier

A short epilogue of one heartbreaking history of love and the prologue of the travel told in The Darjeeling Limited.

This movie is all about how shitty Relationships can get.

Ex-girlfriend: I love you. I never hurt you on purpose.

Jack: I don't care.

2. The Darjeerling Limited

The Darjeeling Limited is about three brothers who, at the insistence of the oldest, take a train ride through India together in order to strengthen their bond.

This one is about a journey to find things about oneself..

Jack: I wonder if the three of us would've been friends in real life. Not as brothers, but as people.

3. The Royal Tenenbaums

An estranged family of former child prodigies reunites when one of their member announces he has a terminal illness.

The Royal Tenenbaums is about complex relationships.

Eli: I wish you'd've done this for me when I was a kid.

Richie: But you didn't have a drug problem then.

Eli: Yeah, but it still would've meant a lot to me.

4. The life aquatic with Steve Zissou

Steve Zissou, an eccentric and renowned oceanographer who has decided to seek out and enact mortal revenge on a shark that ate one of the men on his team.

This one is about completing something and not giving up even if its powered by revenge.

Jane Winslett-Richardson: Are we - are we safe in here?

Steve Zissou: I doubt it.

Klaus Daimler: Do you still want to blow him up?

Steve Zissou: No, we're out of dynamite anyway.

Eleanor Zissou: It is beautiful Steve.

Steve Zissou: Yea, it's pretty good isn't it... I wonder if it remembers me...

5. Rushmore

The king of Rushmore prep school is put on academic probation.

Rushmore is about the idealistic part of love.

Max Fischer: The truth is, neither one of us has the slightest idea where this relationship is going. We can't predict the future.

Rosemary Cross: We don't have a relationship.

Max Fischer: But we're friends.

Rosemary Cross: Yes, and that's all we're *going* to be. Well, yes...

Max Fischer: That's all I meant by "relationship." You want me to grab a dictionary?

6. Bottle Rocket

Focusing on a trio of friends and their elaborate plan to pull off a simple robbery and go on the run.

Bottle rocket is a gem.. Nuff said!

Anthony: Grace thinks I'm a failure.

Dignan: What? What has she ever accomplished in her life that's so great?

7. Moonrise Kingdom

A pair of young lovers flee their New England town, which causes a local search party to fan out and find them.

Moonrise is about what we are willing to do and how far we could go for who or what we want.

Sam: I admit we knew we'd get in trouble. That part's true. We knew people would be worried, and we still ran away, anyway. But something also happened, which we didn't do on purpose. When we first met each other, something happened to us.

Captain Sharp: That's very eloquent. I can't argue against anything you're saying. But then again, I don't have to, 'cause you're 12 years old. Look, let's face it, you're probably a much more intelligent person than I am. In fact, I guarantee it. But even smart kids stick they're finger in electrical sockets sometimes. It takes time to figure things out. It's been proven by history. All mankind makes mistakes. It's our job to try to protect you from making the dangerous ones, if we can. We want a slug?

8. Fantastic Mr. Fox

An urbane fox cannot resist returning to his farm raiding ways and then must help his community survive the farmers' retaliation.

Fantastic Mr. Fox is all about growing up.

Mr. Fox: Honey, I am seven fox years old. My father died at seven and a half. I don't want to live in a hole anymore, and I'm going to do something about it.

9. The Grand Budapest Hotel as a bonus!
