It sounds like every member of the old Ghostbusters team will be accounted for when the second sequel is finally released. Bill Murray has been the most vague about his involvement with Ghostbusters 3, and has become the focal point of many rumors. Over on the UK site Mail Online, they have a recent interview with the actor and he spills the beans on what he’ll bring to the table this third time around.
Wes Anderson is a very unique individual and a talented director. Unfortunately, the man behind Fantastic Mr. Fox was trashed a few weeks ago by the film’s cinematographer Tristan Oliver, for his unconventional directing methods. According to the NYDailyNews, Fox co-star Bill Murray had a few things to say in defense of Mr. Anderson.
It’s been almost 40 year’s since the classic children’s book, Fantastic Mr. Fox hit shelves in America and the U.K. to the delight of kids everywhere. Author Roald Dahl told a simple story about a fox and his attempts to outwit and for lack of a better word “outfox” three of the richest men around. The story is brought to life on the silver screen by director Wes Anderson, using stop motion animation that literally makes you feel like you’re a kid again. His feature version is charming and stays true to the source material, while keeping it fresh for younger viewers.

A few weeks ago the London Film Festival began its first press conference of the festival with the Opening Film, Fantastic Mr Fox. On the panel was the writer/director, Wes Anderson and the stars, George Clooney, Bill Murray, Jason Schwartzman, Eric Anderson, Jarvis Cocker and Wallace Wolodarsky. What follows was a really funny press conference; Bill Murray was the standout, with some fantastic one-liners and rants. The only problem with the press conference was the fact that most of the questions were to George Clooney and half of them was about his personal life, which seem out of place, but George Clooney was on top form and dodged the gossip news bullets aimed at him (for those quotes check out our Why Press Conference Suck story). Hope you enjoy.
Note from the Editor: Straight from London, comes one our latest addition to the team Ben McCarthy with his first response to Fantastic Mr. Fox at The London Film Festival. At the festival I had some issues making the film because, well, London traffic rivals the best in the world. Luckily, I met Ben who I thought had a rather interesting opiniong of the film. Check out his thoughts below…
You know you’re watching a Wes Anderson film when you see a dysfunctional families, quirky characters, and 70’s style clothing, look at The Royal Tenenbaums, The Darjeeling Limited and now his adaption of Roald Dahl’s book, Fantastic Mr Fox. The film tells the story of Mr. Fox (voiced by George Clooney) trying to out wit 3 farmers named Bean, Boggis and Bunce to gain more food for his family. I was nervous about the film after watching the trailers, but Anderson has pulled it off and I was deeply impressed with the look of the film.
According to Firsthowing, there has been another development regarding the Ghostbusters 3 film. This information apparently, comes from a reliable source who states that the director of the first two films, Ivan Reitman, is seriously considering directing the third installment. The actors from the previous movies including, Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, Sigourney Weaver, Ernie Hudson, and Rick Moranis are already attached to reprise their roles in the new film.
I love Fantastic Mr. Fox! The upcoming Wes Anderson film adaptation is one of my top must sees for the fall. Mr. Fox pairs old school stop motion animation, with the voices of Oscar winners George Clooney and Meryl Streep. Earlier this week, we brought you a wonderful behind the scenes featurette, and now Fox Searchlight has decided to release the first official poster promoting the film.
I can’t keep you in suspense any longer…
Wes Anderson fans rejoice! A trailer has been released for his highly anticipated film, Fantastic Mr. Fox. The film has an all star cast featuring Oscar winners George Clooney and Meryl Streep as Mr. and Mrs. Fox and a supporting cast that includes Bill Murray and Owen Wilson.
Just watching this video makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. The feature centers on Mr. Fox as he deals with the selfish behavior of three grumpy old men whom he steals food from to feed his family.
Check out the trailer after the jump!
New photos keep coming for Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox.
