I've only seen Fantastic Mr. Fox when I was a child. But I just finished watching the trailer for Asteroid City and it felt like 5 hours have gone by and I found myself sighing in irritation frequently

If I found out that most of his films began as sets & set pieces he wanted, and the plots were backwards engineered to connect those, I would :10000-com: % believe it. Like an action movie but not.
Wes Anderson is like dumb David Lynch, but his movies are very pretty and the basic story is enough to make them enjoyable (if you vibe with the slideshow/quick cut aesthetic).
David Lynch isn't even that much of a genius, but at least he's able to bake some sort of deeper message/morality into his nonsense scripts.
(I say this as someone who very much enjoys Lynch and Anderson films lol)
