    Moonrise Kingdom

    [YOUTUBE]7N8wkVA4_8s&feature=player_embedded[/YOUTUBE][/QUOTE]

    Looks like it will be released towards the end of May.



    Set on an island off the coast of New England in the 1960s, as a young boy and girl fall in love they are moved to run away together. Various factions of the town mobilize to search for them and the town is turned upside down -- which might not be such a bad thing.

    Director:
    Wes Anderson
    Writers:
    Wes Anderson, Roman Coppola
    I'm QUITE looking forward to this. The trailer looks fantastic, it has an amazing cast and it's written/directed by Anderson. SOLD :T

    For me, Wes Anderson was an aquired taste. I've found that I have to watch his films more than once to really appreciate what he does, with The Royal Tenenbaums being a good example. On the other hand, The Life Aquatic hooked me on the first viewing and I have watched this film several times. So I'll definitely be interested in his latest effort. Love the lineup of talent, too: Bruce Willis, Bill Murray, Edward Norton, etc. :T

      Looks interesting but its definitely a rental for me. I agree with George the cast looks great and I see some potential but Wes has always been hit or miss with me. Sometimes I find his pacing agonizingly slow.

        Finally watched it last night and thoroughly enjoyed :T

        Yes, you certainly have to be in an Anderson "mood" to enjoy his stuff. It's certainly not your generic Hollywood, that's for sure :lol:

          We loved this movie as well, It was great and witty and just different but also amazingly fun. It's probably one of the better movies we've watched recently.

            I agree...have had some misses recently with the likes of Sucker Punch (WTF was that?!?! :blink: ) and Never Let Me Go... So this was a pleasant "hit" (along with Best Exotic Marigold Hotel).

              Rented It.

              This is definetly a Wes Anderson style film, so if you didn't like The Royal Tenenbaums, you will absolutely hate this one. Even though I loved The Royal Tenenbaums (It's in my favorite 50 or better), I wasn't too big on The Life Aquatic.

              The cast, acting, soundtrack...

              "Cast-able" music streamer for home use?
              by technodanvan
              I'm not sure really what it is I need, but here is the situation. I'm turning part of my office into a music room of sorts, with my desk at one end of the room and the hifi stuff at the other end - I'm guessing the room is around 20x12 or so. I have a cheap set of speakers for my computer that I intend...

              Audio opinions needed on Krell CAST & Current Mode technology
              by ShadowZA
              I'm looking for any opinions (based on personal experience) out there on audio comparatives on Krell systems between utilising Krell's CAST & Current Mode technologies and not using them (and rather going with balanced connections).

              For information purposes, the following information...
