this is what a comment by a dumb person would look like^

loved the score

I just can't get past Wes Anderson's style. Its gotten so overbearing with every passing film. Its self parody at this point. I guess its one of those you're either with it or not kinda thing.

cro what does this mean

False

If you like Wes Anderson then you should check out Drowning By Numbers

Imma have to peep this tonight

This movie has gripped me

can soemone explain to me the imporatntce of the end scene with margot robbie ? still dont see why wes said its the most important scene in the movie

And you say

“All my pictures come out”

Love it for that

The different levels of the story all come together in that conversation

my favorite wes in ages.

the emotional beats are nothing new for a wes movie, but he's gotten so good at executing them. the margot scene was just perfect

copied this from somewhere else, absolutely insane scene

The climactic balcony scene between Jason Schwartzman and Margot Robbie is absolutely stunning. It takes place between two characters, both taking a break from playing two other characters. They discuss a scene they had together that got cut, their discussion serves the purpose of depicting the scene, and it works to staggering effect.

It's one of the greatest flexes I've ever seen a filmmaker pull off. Wes manages to break the fourth wall of the story he's telling, only to pull us back into that very story and give us an emotional close to one of the characters' arcs. That character then returns to his play and our movie, and we understand he's learned something. More than that, we choose to buy the story despite the overt artifice, it's comforting and it makes sense. It feels at once like a triumph of storytelling and a celebration of its very power.

Stories make sense of our world, even when it's a world within a world within a world. The labyrinthian form of Asteroid City doesn't just feel like a choice of form, it's like an experiment that dares to prove that a sincere and earnestly told story can cut through any layer of artifice and make it your heart, because that's what makes us human. I don't know if that's exactly what Asteroid City is "about", but I love that it made me think about it.

Just masterful work from everyone involved

i love how personal this felt to wes as a creator.

it felt like there was a lot of self examining in both his role as an artist, especially as a director when schwartzman runs to brody and asks if he's doing the character correctly as well as the style he's built

Wes' most pretentious film, I can appreciate the film's message but the beautiful set designs and great performances can't distract from the flat writing, stale direction & strange sequencing. The Alien landing & balcony scene were incredible tho.

not sure if I commented already, but this looks boring af

i get the movie

and wow
