      Just believe, you are a rocket, so what if you are in a bottle?

      I like, no, I've loved Wes Anderson for a long time, but it was only yesterday that I finally watched his debut, 1996's "Bottle Rocket." Although this debut is slightly green and immature, the distinctive temperament that belongs to Wes Anderson has already begun to emerge in this film.

      Three big idiots. Color (pool, skydiving suit, van, factory railing, clerk uniform), pattern (Dignan's shirt and Anthony's wallpaper, curtains) preference can be seen a little bit. The police chased into the freezer and shouted "FREEZE!!" Thinking of Quentin's "KETCHUP!!", Dignan's personality and clothes were very similar to Ash in the fox. Three-pieced gang from his debut, Wei Dao is a punk! The last sentence is a little more moving.

      Wes has been Anderson ever since. But hey, at least his cinematographer wasn't a total robot back then.

    • Kumar: Man, I blew it. I blew it, man.

      Anthony: Kumar, what were you doing in the freezer?

      Kumar: I don't know, man, I lose my touch, man.

      Dignan: Did you ever have a touch to lose, man?

    • Dignan: We'll get him. We'll get him. Man, dont worry about that, we'll get him. And when we do, we'll blow up his car, do something. I can guarantee you that. What makes me furious is thinking about the look on Bob's fat face, thinking he pulled one over on us. I tell you another thing. If our paths cross again, you're gonna see a side of Dignan that you havent seen before. A sick, sadistic side, cause I'm furious at Bob.
