One of the coolest closing crawls ever. THE LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU paid homage to THE ADVENTURES OF BUCKAROO BANZAI, which was neat, but I like the BANZAI bit better because the Banzai March kicks so much ass.
I do like the Bowie tune too. I also think BANZAI is a better film than ZISSOU, although I like both. Really, ZISSOU is the only Wes Anderson movie I really like, to date.
I think every movie that Jeff Goldblum is in should end like this. JURASIC PARK, FAY GRIM, THE FLY...
ReplyDeleteOh, and if you're looking for a Banzai sequel, check out the 3-issue miniseries from Moonstone comics that came out last year. It's based on the script written by BANZAI creator Earl Mac Rauch when he was developing the film into a series for FOX a few years back.
ReplyDeleteI always thought it was strange how Perfect Tommy's ensemble changed mid-march. But that's Perfect Tommy for you.
