Show Notes
Wes Anderson's ornate heartfelt caper, THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME, is our bonus feature presentation this week. Although both of the fellas are huge Wes Anderson fans, this new offering has Chad saying Wes Anderson just isn't for him anymore. What went wrong with the film? They wonder if Wes Anderson's actors are held back by his style, and how the filmmaker could shake up his career. Oh, that old style over substance argument is brought up, and much more! We also talk some current movie news with budgets, what current writers are lacking, and more.
