neutral · AI labelView post →Hang on Was the title "Isle of Dogs" a phonetic pun? Did Wes Anderson make a dog movie with a title that sounds like "I love dogs?" Because if so that's kind of brilliant
neutral · AI labelView post →The Criterion Collection has announced that Isle of Dogs will be joining the collection as a standalone and will also be part of a box set with Wes Anderson's first ten films on September 30th. Very hyped to see this get a release cause I adore this film.

Every single film he’s worked on has turned out great. And there’s not many people you can say that statement about! #dop #cinematography #isleofdogs #fantasticmrfox

neutral · AI labelView post →I watched every Wes Anderson movie in order last year after years of dismissing them, and I think very highly of him as a filmmaker now. That said, Isle of Dogs is irredeemable horseshit
negative · AI labelView post →Also adds another film to Criterion's shockingly low # of animated titles: - three films from Karel Zeman (box-set) - Fantastic Mr. Fox - Fantastic Planet - Flow - GDT's Pinocchio - Isle of Dogs - WALL-E - Watership Down

neutral · AI labelView post →Gonna rewatch ISLE OF DOGS, my first viewing since it came out. The only Wes Anderson movie I simply didn't like when I first saw it.
negative · AI labelView post →Ohhhhh Isle of Dogs is on Disney+ Iconic furry film
neutral · AI labelView post →This is my most cancellable take as a furry You cannot convince me that Fantastic Mr Fox or Isle of Dogs were good movies. This qualified opinion brought to you by someone who's favorite movie is Sunshine and who's furry awakening was Bolt.
negative · AI labelView post →Watched Isle of Dogs with my kids last night. Still a very good movie. Fun because my littlest (age 9) was only 3 when we watched it last so he didn’t remember it, but he really likes making stop motion animation now so the movie really hit.

neutral · AI labelView post →@tarable.bsky.social and I went to a special showing of Isle of Dogs shortly before it was properly released where people were encouraged to bring their dogs to the movie. When the lights went down, there was a brief smattering of surprised barking, and then they were all totally quiet.
neutral · AI labelView post →Isle of Dogs (2018) This movie was interesting. I don't know if "artsy" is the best descriptor, but I'll go with that. Didn't "wow!" me, but it was thoroughly enjoyable and I liked the stop-motion animation. Will be checking out Wes Anderson's other stop-motion film, Fantastic Mr. Fox, soon. 4/5
positive · AI labelView post →finally watching Isle of Dogs, hey this movie is pretty good!

neutral · AI labelView post →Isle of Dogs lol. Only movie I came close to walking out on
negative · AI labelView post →Asteroid City is the best film Wes Anderson has made to date. Grand Budapest is number 2. Isle of Dogs is incredible underrated. Thank you for your attention in this matter.
positive · AI labelView post →"ISLE OF DOGS" is now streaming on HBO Max!
neutral · AI labelView post →My roommate and I went and saw The Phoenician Scheme last night. I thought it was really enjoyable--probably his best film since Isle of Dogs (but if you want his BEST recent work, you'll need to check out his collection of Roald Dahl shorts on Netflix).
neutral · AI labelView post →My parents taught me that the point of a movie is to be ENTERTAINING. I can watch something artsy like Isle of Dogs, something serious like The Batman, and something dumb with no plot like Jackass. They’re all entertaining to me.

positive · AI labelView post →Tonight’s movie was Isle of Dogs by Wes Anderson. Tow things: 1/ I love stop motion always, 2/Wes Anderson should make more. While I think this film is a bit long, i absolutely love it. Great flick.

positive · AI labelView post →It's certainly been a while since I last watched The Simpsons Movie, Triplets of Belleville, Isle of Dogs, and The Boy and the Heron.
neutral · AI labelView post →Grand Budapest Hotel is a very good movie (and so is Isle of Dogs) but it’s around that time when Wes Anderson became too much style over substance imo and OP wanted to avoid „tacky” which I would say those are.

neutral · AI labelView post →10.) I’m massively obsessed w/Wes Anderson films! They’re probably my second biggest interest after Jim Henson properties 😁💖 My favorite film of his is Isle Of Dogs tbh~
positive · AI labelView post →because I always gotta be a weirdo I like his movies better the more stage-y and affected and non-realistic they are. My favorite movie of his might be (the highly problematic oh well) Isle of Dogs, and I kinda loved his Dahl adaptations. When he has more fully rounded human characters I hate them.
positive · AI labelView post →The Grand Budapest Hotel, or really any Wes Anderson film with Goldblum in it (which includes The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Isle of Dogs, and Asteroid City).
neutral · AI labelView post →I love Anderson movies but I was struggling with asteroid city as well. Isle of Dogs, Grand Budapest, and fantastic mr fox are his top movies for me.
positive · AI labelView post →Filmed, believe it or not, at the Isle Of Dogs and Beckton Gas Works in East London, UK. Stanley preferred to film in the UK.

positive · AI labelView post →Just watched Isle of Dogs for the first time. Brilliant film. Does anyone know if it was brought over to Japan though, and if so, was it redubbed at all? Having trouble finding this info, but I'm extremely curious.
positive · AI labelView post →Movies I deeply enjoy (no order) -Everything Everywhere all at Once -Poor Things -Princess Mononoke -Godzilla Minus One -Summer Wars -Over the Garden Wall (counting as a movie shut up) -Phoenician Scheme -Isle of Dogs -Wolf Children
positive · AI labelView post →What I like about Life Aquatic is that’s his last movie where things are allowed to get chaotic. There’s some hand held shots in that movie and some improvisation. My least favorite are probably Darjeeling and Isle of Dogs.

positive · AI labelView post →78. Isle of Dogs (2018) Weird to think this is almost a decade old now already We're due for another stop-motion film from Wes soon, I think. Anyway this is still really good. You can tell he feels really at home in this medium especially and it always evolves his style to come afterwards.
positive · AI labelView post →If you haven’t seen the movie, Isle of Dogs, do yourself a favour and make time for it. Here’s a small introductory trailer. youtu.be/dt__kig8PVU?...

neutral · AI labelView post →I revisited Wes Anderson’s “Isle of Dogs” last night for the first time in many years. Like many of Anderson’s film I was a bit mixed on it the first time round, but this time it really clicked with me and I had a great time with it. So many nice little details in the film. A joy.
