25. I loved it.
I laughed my ass off. I think VV is great. He'a actually funnier than Owen Wilson in Wedding Crashers, IMHO.

4. They do not have the same mother or the same father
but they grew up together in the same Schering-Plough facility, and bunked in the same pod.

22. " A coupla doofii came into a bar..."
"We met some real doofii at the ______, yuck!"

It's a word whose time has come.

I also advocate the use of Bimbii.

7. "I'm in but you gotta get me one of these yellow suits"
Bottle Rocket is a Classic!

"Damn it Bob! Don't touch the gun. Touch it again and you're out."
<Bob slowly moves fingers to fiddle with the gun>

"That's it. No gang."

12. I think you'll like it.
I just watched "The Life Aquatic" tonight. I really liked it. And Owen Wilson was so different from anything he's done since "Bottle Rocket." Cool movie.

16. Owen co-wrote all the Wes Anderson movies
Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 12:13 PM by Tyrone Slothrop
excpet for The Life Aquatic.

Wes went to high school with the Wilson's (IIRC).

Apparently, Wes comes up with the main script idea and writes it and then Owen goes through and tightens up the ideas and punches it up with jokes.

Pretty good system so far.

Let's you, me and the rest of Brigagier Pudding go for a bite some time.

17. Bottle Rocket also features the thrid Wilson brother
He plays Bob's older brother, Future Man.

He has a small role in Rushmore too.

24. Yes. Owen is Luke's Father.
But you don't get to learn that until the last movie.
