It's Frank Whaley trying to support Jennifer Connely's massive, massive rack and failing. You know who's also got a massive, massive rack? Linda Blair on the cover of the rerelease of Savage Streets.  Yes, this is from The Dude Designs, the same guy who made the Hobo With A Shotgun poster.

While there are a couple that I dig, I'm not a big fan of most of Wes Anderson's movies, and this one looks like it uses the same "HEY LOOK AT THIS ISN'T THIS QUIRKY?!?!?!" style as a lot of his movies. Not to mention that part of it is filmed in 4:3 You have become the Irish Joe of Cinema Discusso.

The way it looked in the trailer at least, everything in the frame isn't given the proper amount of space needed by using that ratio and everything seemed crammed together. I get that its an aesthetic choice and he's trying to make a point about the way things used to look or whatever, but that doesn't mean it looks good. The first few scenes of Oz The Great And Powerful were in 4:3, but that was alright because the way it was shot didn't make it look forced like this does.

The aspect change in Oz the Great and Powerful was an allusion to the color change in Wizard of Oz. It was thoughtful and intentional. It was not done because "look at this so quirky look." Wes Andersen has forfeit his ability to be intentional or thoughtful or purposed in his filmmaking.

Especially considering the Grand Budapest Hotel was shot in 3 different aspect ratios depending on the timeline of the film, I'm pretty sure Anderson's reasoning was a little more than just about looking quirky or whatever. But Rageaholic Monkey did say he didn't like any of Wes Anderson's other movies, so it's not very surprising that he doesn't like this one either. I like the majority of Anderson's stuff and I didn't think the 4:3 looked forced or bad or whatever.

I think he manages to hold his own for the most part, but there are some points where he is definitely out-acted to a noticeable degree (which isn't the worst thing considering the experience he has compared to the actors he was working with, Paul has zero formal training as well) and there are a handful of scenes in the final season where he's supposed to be really angry and he just way overacts it and it's not convincing. He does sad and broken really well, though, and even with the weak spots I think he plays the character in a way that probably couldn't be duplicated even by a "better" actor. I do think his career will probably fizzle out though because I think he gets a lot of credit that should go to the writing and direction on Breaking Bad.

You really shouldn't make blanket statements about a completed show/actor before you finish the show, dude.

Yeah Aaron Paul was fantastic on Breaking Bad, but in no way, shape or form did he ever top Cranston. No one on that show topped Cranston. Not Giancarlo Esposito either.

The hell does that even mean? I mean, if I was forced to I'd say Cranston is better than Paul, but Aaron Paul is loving incredible in that show. His monologue in "Problem Dog" is one of the best things in the entire series. EDIT: Speaking of Breaking Bad they always killed it with their posters:

Paul's peaks rival Cranston's, but there's not nearly as many of them. Cranston also was much more surefooted overall... you never saw him make a wrong choice, while playing a more complex character with a greater range of expression. There's no question which achievement was more impressive, which is no knock on Paul's work at all. There's no shame in coming in 2nd to Cranston.
