i am a coomer and did some investigating. Scarlett Johansson basically said she was fine with doing it, but Wes Anderson was too nervous to talk to her about it. He did the same shit with Lea Seydoux and had to make a cartoon showing her what to do.
They make reference in the movie to having a "nude stunt double", and there is a stunt double actress credited. I looked her up, and she has a similar body to Scarlett in Under The Skin. Great casting.
she had a moment that got a good laugh out of me but it's literally it. they're showing the government doing tests on everyone after being "exposed" to the alien. They're holding up rorschach cards to her and everything she says is something like >an alien walking a dog >an alien making food >an alien flying a kite

My theater was packed by the way, we had to move over to make space for more people.
I’m glad I saw it in the theater, better than that shit by James Mangold.
>It’s a double, confirmed by Anderson and here:
Nonsense. Scarlett says it was her and the body being anatomically equal (height, hips etc) to the one in Under the Skin confirms that.
The double thing is nonsense and Wes never "confirmed" they used one
Wes said it in a AMA when someone directly asked if it was a double. Scarlett directly said she was game for it but ultimately Wes was too uncomfortable.
They even mention using a “body double” in the movie. Pic related is the actress credited as “body double”, who is a model
>Wes said it in a AMA when someone directly asked if it was a double.
Source. This makes zero sense marketwise and considering the extensive Lea nude scenes from French Dispatch.
It was on IG or some shit but i'll try to find a recording of it. I think Wes and Scarlett just said frick it because it was such a brief moment. Lea's absolutely wouldn't work with a double at all.
From what I recall, the fan said something like >i know you might not want to answer something like this, but they mention body doubles in the film. Was that a comment on Scarlett using one for her scene?
and he said >yeah, i'll answer that. Yes, it was a double.

Yeah, Lea Seydoux said that he basically was terrified to talk about her nude scene and had to make an animation that she could watch of how it will go down. I don't even know if he was on set for it. Not sure why he's so autistic about it.

To be fair, I haven't watched Forrest Gump in like 20 years. I remember interpreting the scene as he couldn't register/comprehend her nudity and was freaking out, but maybe it was what you said.

I thought he was good in it, same with Brody even though his part was small. Honestly I disagree with everything that anon said besides Hanks being miscast. He even brought his wife along for a minor role
Murray was actually supposed to play Steve Carrell's character, but I thought he did a great job. Honestly was one of my favorite non-regulars along with Matt Dillon.

Pretty sure Tom Hanks was supposed to more like Gene Hackman in Royal Tenenbaums. Idk, either way I don’t think it was a good performance for the character.
sure, he acted similar to Gene Hackman but I was just saying that Murray was supposed to play Steve Carrell's character and was never to play the father
I realized after making my ranking that I enjoy the ones that make me laugh the most:
The Royal Tenenbaums
Rushmore
Bottle Rocket
The Life Aquatic
Grand Budapest Hotel
Fantastic Mr. Fox
Asteroid City
Darjeeling Limited
The French Dispatch
Moonrise Kingdom
Isle of Dogs
I liked it alot. It's surprisingly anti authoritarian and I'm surprised not too many people are commenting on the anti lockdown stuff. It's full of heart and charm too, but the first act was incredibly slow to get started. Based selection of music though
Shit has been stuck in my head since I saw it in theaters. The alien song by the kid is great too. I mostly chuckled but that made me burst out laughing it was so good
maybe if she doesn't have an autistic director but she's pushing 40 and has had two kids now. when I looked that up I realized she's now had three husbands, wtf
>Michael Bay turned down Scarlett's offer to film a scene topless >Wes Anderson was too uncomfortable to film Scarlett naked
WILL SOME FRICKING DIRECTOR MAN UP AND SHOW ME THIS WOMAN'S breasts IN A WELL LIT SCENE ALREADY?
Thus the "well lit" part. Yes, but the best nudity in that film takes place when it's super dark and you've gotten brighten the scene and it's all grainy and shit. Just give Scarlett a proper well lit nude scene already.
if he were a true coombrain he would have known about it by now. also her thick thighs when she is stealing clothing off a woman in the void is pure KINO
>coombrain
You don't think it's weird that one of the most gorgeous women alive today has tried to get naked on camera twice and both times the director has responded with "N-no, th-that's okay, you don't h-have to..."?
Michael Bay wanted a pg-13 rating to get more money. I think Wes is just autistic about talking to women about anything sexual. To be fair, Lea Seydoux would make me nervous as frick too
Carrell probably because he was out in the desert where obviously a lot of stick ups happened. No clue about Hanks.
Hanks is just an extremely rich guy living on a golf course around the 50s/60s. He probably carries it to scare off the hippies and shoot at crows after a few pulls of whiskey.
the song in the credits flat out explains it if you didnt piece it together.
You can't wake up if you don't fall asleep
You can't fall in love and land on your feet
You won't smell the roses if you never plant a seed
And you can't wake up if you don't fall asleep
You can't make an entrance if you keep missing your cue
You won't pick a winner till you learn how to choose
You never find a treasure unless you dig deep
And you can't wake up if you don't fall asleep
Oh, you'll never have memories worth keepin'
Oh, you'll never find the truth you are seekin'
While you are sleepin'
But you can't wake up if you don't fall asleep
So go live your dreams and live them real deep
There is some countin' money and there's some countin' sheep
Oh, you can't wake up if you don't fall asleep
If you don't fall asleep
You can dig into what the thematic meaning of the phrase is, but I think the whole point of that scene is just to depict a surreal breakdown of the two stories due the playwright dying.
Earp was looking for something to get people up from their dream. Until getting stuck in Asteroid City Auggie was about to drop the kids off and not come back. He "wakes up" in Asteroid City and realizes he has to take care of them and meets Midge Campbell. One way to see him burning his hand is realizing he's about to fall asleep in another dream (staying with Midge) and it can't work.

If you have to ask then you're beyond help but you should pick the new Wes Anderson movie. Have you seen the woman in the new Indiana Jones? Someone (probably a female) thought that was acceptable.
I unironically believe that you think that but what if I don't agree with your assessment? Is that allowed? Maybe everyone loves her and it's just me that doesn't. I dislike most women so it could be a me problem. If that anon I replied to likes the Indiana Jones woman then he can watch the movie.
I love Wes Anderson's film style, but this whole movie is a visual nightmare; it is too bright, and unrelentingly so. Like movies that are too dark throughout it's simply uncomfortable to watch.
The alien scene was fricking kino
I agree
>ScarJo breasts and pusy
Worth to watch it just for that?
Not really, it's kind of out of focus (mirror reflection) and only lasts a second
probably a double anyway.
It's the same breasts as Under The Skin, so I'm sure it's actually her
i am a coomer and did some investigating. Scarlett Johansson basically said she was fine with doing it, but Wes Anderson was too nervous to talk to her about it. He did the same shit with Lea Seydoux and had to make a cartoon showing her what to do.

i'm sure they let Scarlett pick who she wants to model as her nude body
No. They were floppy like a beagle's ears.
Just watch Under the Skin.
Hated it. It's like a pastiche of Anderson's style. He isn't even trying anymore.
It's weird to me that all his other movies have straightforward plots and this one just doesn't.
That was my favorite part about it. It was like a Norman Rockwell kafka dream
He is literally parodying himself at this point, I'm not going to watch his movies in theater anymore.
i know soph had barely any screen time but was she good?
she had a moment that got a good laugh out of me but it's literally it. they're showing the government doing tests on everyone after being "exposed" to the alien. They're holding up rorschach cards to her and everything she says is something like
>an alien walking a dog
>an alien making food
>an alien flying a kite
She was cute that's all that matters.
she’s always cute, i never need to ask about that. she has a really dry wit though and i feel it’s being underutilized.
She looks like a little boy, and that's just not attractive.
She was pretty cute, but yeah, not a lot of lines.
More like Reddit City
Good one
>Saw ScarJo breasts and pusy
Good enough, I'm sold
It’s a double, confirmed by Anderson and here:
Just not my favorite actor.
My theater was packed by the way, we had to move over to make space for more people.
I’m glad I saw it in the theater, better than that shit by James Mangold.
i had the theater completely to myself. That hasn't happened since I saw Hereditary at like 1pm on a Monday.
If you want it to happen again go watch Indiana Jones 5 sometime this week

So just a regular Tom Hanks role then.
As with all Wes Anderson movies, there is nothing to get.
Wes Anderson movies are like prostitutes, pretty to look at but have no substance.
Scarlett's kid looked like pic related to me
Uma thurmans daughter was so cute I'm sad she fricked the douche bag cowboy
You talk shit about Rupert Friend on my board again and I'll have you killed.
Why was the cowboy a douchebag?
He got to frick the school teacher
Scarlett walled years ago around the time she had the ass implants in
she never had ass implants and this is the first time i've heard anyone say that
Film was based as frick for showing characters praying and doing STEM activities
>Favorite Gags
I chuckled at the recurring police chase and the real estate vending machine.
The vending machine gag was just kinda strange, it was just there and never really paid off.
Nothing in the movie paid off. It almost feels unfinished.
The street shitter from spiderman bothers me I was hoping he wouldn't speak in the film but then got a few lines towards the end
pretty colors, but that's not enough to get me to watch a movie.
I don't like capeshit.

They must be terrible to behold if all these men refuse to show her knockers. Maybe they are googly eyed and gray?
she had leaks and was nude in under the skin, dope.
I choose not to believe you. I think her breasts are busted like the ones in Breast Men
Why were Steve Carell and Tom Hanks carrying handguns?
Carrell probably because he was out in the desert where obviously a lot of stick ups happened. No clue about Hanks.
Hanks is just an extremely rich guy living on a golf course around the 50s/60s. He probably carries it to scare off the hippies and shoot at crows after a few pulls of whiskey.
