Love...Love...Love the Wilson Bros

I am pretty positive that I could spend an entire weekend renting movies that the Wilson Brothers have been in. There are so many winners and fantastically odd characters in every single one of them. I think that for the most part, these guys have done a great job of picking movies and creating characters that are funny, weird, human, mis-understood and memorable. I love the independent films they have done and if you have not had a chance to take in any of the movies below, please do so immediately. You will not be disappointed. These movies make me so happy!


The Life Aquatic is Fantastic and has such an incredible cast! One of my favorites.
The Royal Tenenbaums is another quirky, funny movie with a winner of a cast. The charecters are so odd, yet you fall in love with all of them. I love that Luke is a washed up tennis champ and still dresses the part. Who ever developed these characters is radical. They are so out there.
I am not sure if many people have seen this one. Darjeeling was awsome. If you have not seen this, go out and rent it straight away. Put it on your Netflix que. This is a classic movie filled with odd moments that made me smile. Good STUFF!

Marley and Me was a movie that took me by surprise. I did not read the book so I had no idea what I was in for when I rented it one evening. It is such a good life movie. I laughed all throughout the movie and then I think I cried for 20 minutes straight at the end.




This is a fantastic movie! If you have not seen Bottle Rocket, go out and rent it immediately! It was an Indy film made in the 90's with the Wilsons. This movie introduced them to me and I absolutely fell in love with their quirky personalities.


Meet the Parents. One of my favorite lines in this movie is [On who inspired him to be a wood worker] "I'd have to say Jesus. He was a carpenter and I figured if you're going to follow in somebody's footsteps, why not the steps of our lord and savior"?



Old School has to be one of the funniest movies put out in the last 15 years. From ear muffs to Blue to the Wedding Singer, there is so much good stuff in this movie.
