Regarding Wes Anderson, I was a huge fan of his from the start. I rented Bottle Rocket from Blockbuster before Rushmore came out, and loved it and thus saw Rushmore in theaters as soon as it was released, and I've been a big fan ever since. However, his last two movies have left me kinda flat. They still look like Wes Anderson movies, almost to the point of self parody, but they don't seem like they have much to offer beyond his trademark aesthetic. I fear Wes Anderson is beginning to remind me a bit in that way of Tim Burton, who was once a great filmmaker with a wholly recognizable style and look, but who also made great movies in addition to having that Burtonesque look to them. However, in more recent years his films still look like Tim Burton films, but just aren't very good, like they have nothing much to offer beyond great art direction. IMO Wes Anderson needs to stop focusing everything on the look of his movies and deliver something else as well, even if it's just more humor.

I highly recommend you check out the Headblade Moto, which you can find on Amazon for about $15. I just shave my head in the shower using nothing but soap and it takes only 2-3 minutes (if that), is zero hassle, is incredibly easy to do, and leaves you with a much closer shave. You'll find you don't have to shave as often that way, and it's very easy to tell if you miss a patch. Check it out, you won't look back.
