This just means we are one step closer to getting every Adam Sandler movie ranked video
we need THIS
Don’t kill him please.
The torture that he'll have to face is unbearable
Don't force him to watch Jack & Jill, please
Unfortunately yes
I think I speak for a lot of people when I say we would love to see you do this for more directors!
YOU DO NOT REPRESENT ME!!!!
but also i agree
he’s making a Spielberg one, so stay tuned
Christopher Nolan would be a difficulty one ❤
Uwe Bol! Uwe Bol!
You do
You griped about Mrs. Fox not doing any thing in FMF, but she does! She uses her talent of painting landscapes to plan and coordinate the assault. Also, it makes sense that she would not want to go into the fray because, as we find out at the end, she is pregnant. The central point fo her character is that she puts the well-being of her children first. That is why Fox was supposed to quit thieving in the first place.
“CON-_TACT_ !”
@@connor48880that alone proves this comments point lol
@@connor48880 Forgot about that, and yep that's certainly true.
@@connor48880this 😩🔥
THATS WHAT I ThOUGHT
Can we all appreciate the fact that this is the very first ranking video where Schaff doesn't rant or loses his mind, and is just happy through and through?
The fact that this man has yet to win an Oscar just says everything you need about the Academy. What an amazing, visionary director. (edit) This has aged poorly, thankfully, but the Academy seriously undervalues this man's work in general.
For real
The first time I heard of be a winner in the game of life
Instead of disappointment in the game life
i wish i liked wes anderson as much as other people do. his style, while interesting and unique, just never hits for me like it does other people. i definitely see why people love him, i'm just not one of those people.
It’s not like he’s lacking though. The Academy loves him; he’s been nominated SEVEN TIMES. Compare that to other incredible visionaries like Brian de Palma, Paul Verhoeven, or David Cronenberg, who don’t even have one to their name (not counting Verhoeven’s Foreign Language Film recognition which for some reason doesn’t count). Sometimes it’s a honor to just be nominated, although he’ll probably win Live-Action Short for Henry Sugar pretty soon.
I think the total of academy nominations he has total is around 14 or 15 over the years.
The best part about Wes is that he's only 54. The man has DECADES of filmmaking ahead of him, and they're all practically guaranteed to be bangers.
He's 54???? I feel like he's been 35 in my mind for the past 10 years somehow
Assuming something doesn’t go wrong.
@@zeltzamer4010 why would you say this
idk but it’s kinda realistic, right?
accidents happen and sometimes cancer can happen
but I feel like we’ll discover that Wes is actually immortal at some point so we should be good
@@connor48880jesus christ dude wtf.
"Willem DaFriend" made me laugh way harder than it should have.
Hey, about Darjeeling, the movie taking place in India wasn't just a backdrop, it's his way to pay homage to Indian cinema, which strongly influenced his directing style
Yeah, it’s done beautifully. My wife is Indian and this is her favourite Anderson film in large part due to the way it respects and represents India as a setting.
You can see influence from Indian filmmaking in a lot of his films
Honestly, Wes Anderson & Roald Dahl fit so perfectly together; they've both got such a knack for treating the extraordinary with deadpan "this is totally ordinary what are you talking about" delivery that I've always found just so charming. Kinda wanna see what a Wes Anderson adaptation of Lemony Snicket would look like, since his writing style has a very similar charm to it. They fit in the same category in my head, at least.
Oh absolutely! I would love to see that...
Ooh, maybe Wes could do an adaptation of All the Wrong Questions!
Now I want a Wes Anderson adaptation of The Twits, omg it would be perfect
@@RainbowMan9407 Yessssssssssssssss, the writing of that book is so Wes Anderson. "I was almost 14 and I was wrong, I was wrong about all of it. I asked four wrong questions, more or less, this is the account of the ______" The characters are so Wes Anderson, the setting, the plots, ugh now that's all I'm going to think about for the next three days.
literally as i read you compare Wes Anderson and Roald Dahl i was about to comment about Lemony Snicket but realised you beat me to it too, absolutely true!!
I'm glad Schaff is expanding into director filmography rankings, and this was a great way to start. Ever since I first saw _Fantastic Mr. Fox,_ I've absolutely adored Wes Anderson's signature style. The deadpan humor, the bright colors, and intricate camera work are incredible. This man goes all out in everything he does, and every one of his films are enjoyable and inspiring. Mr. Fox is still my favorite, though.
Very much agreed
The man is an icon.
That's my favorite too.
This film has soooo much soul! Totally agree!
I feel like you should go through Tim Burton's filmography next. Such a varied director, with a huge number of projects throughout the years.
Number 1 is Ed Wood for me. A film that did not deserve to bomb.
Quentin Tarantino movies, ranking. The early 2000’s were crazy
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy would be an amazing story for him to adapt. It’s absurd humor and deadpan and imaginative and quirky word building would be the perfect match
i second this
I've been recently doing this actually. I very much agree with this comment! (The fact Danny Elfman has only been excluded from 3 of his movies is wild btw. Like damn, Tim, give Dan a break lmao)
Isle of Dogs will always hold a special place cause it was the movie that introduced me to his filmography. But after objectively looking at the rest of his films, it's safe to say that placing it towards the bottom of the list isn't unjustified.
Same, I hold this one close to my heart but it’s not the best one he’s done
It's probably the best one for kids.
@@treytison1444 Fantastic Mr Fox is awsome for kids as well
I still rewatch the ending of The Grand Budapest Hotel often. Just the way the movie zooms out from the story of the hotel, to the story being told, to that story being written down, to that story being read in the present day, just makes the tragic ending so much more effective, telling you that this was several decades ago, and its legacy is basically gone, and we’re viewing the last scraps of its memory. What an incredible movie.
Great interpretation. I hadn't thought about it that way before. Everything indeed is lost to the passage of time.
The things that stood out for me are the small details which resemble the real Budapest and Hungary, despite that the movie not officially takes place in Hungary. That tram/lift thing that goes up to the hotel are looks like the real ones, but in reality there is not a Hotel on top but the Buda Castle which was the Capital Building of the Country for a few hundred years, and from this direction, it's actually somehow a resemblance to what actually happened to the Country in the second world war, not even speaking about that "Border Control" which could be in any invaded country but in the end I like to pretend that in the background the movie actually takes place in Hungary.
but maybe it just me who wants to see more into the movie that actually in it
"there are still glimmers of civilization in this barbaric slaughterhouse house that was once known as humanity. That's what we provide in our humble, modest insignificant.....ah fuck it" - literally the theme of the movie, and the ending shot with your comment is just the cherry on top.
Who agrees that Schaff needs to make SO MANY more of these director rankings videos? Scorsese, Tarantino, Nolan, Fincher, Damien Chazelle, Bong Joon-ho, Denis Villeneuve, etc. He could make so many of these rankings and they would never get old!
Spielberg, Coppola, Van Sant.
Yes, please to all of them!
Bong Joon-Ho and Apichatpong Weerasethakul please!
Come on people, give him a REAL challenge. Like Edgar Wright.
I would certainly be interested on most of those. 99% guaranteed view from me.

Unless its a joke I missed, it's the Darjeeling Limited, not Unlimited.
I love the [SQUARESPACE] timecard addition.
I can remember the first time I decided (quite randomly, I might add) to watch The Grand Budapest Hotel, while having no real introduction to We Anderson before (I think technically I'd seen Fantastic Mr. Fox first, but didn't know it was the same director until later) - I was absolutely FLOORED by the visuals. His right-angle sweeps and head-on and symmetrical shots are so unique (if only because you're not strictly supposed to do that) that I was immediately enamored. Also the colors and the story sort of slowly 'filled my cup' as well over the course of the film, and I left the experience in awe that no one had tried to do something similar before (aside from Wes himself, of course). He is definitely one of the most visionary *artists* of film of all time.
i had a very similar experience, as well :) my siblings and i snuck into the theater and we missed the first couple scenes but we were still all blown away
I've watched Fantastic Mr Fox days ago and i've gotta say that this, was an very unique experience.
Everything in this movie is perfect, the voice acting, the humor, the story, the characters, EVERYTHING. And i never stop rewatching this movie.
It's that Fantastic.
The book is charming as well. But the movie has more changes that work
Apparently Dumbledore is Bean in the movie
Roald Dahl's novels puts a lot of whimsical vibe to it, but Wes Anderson improves the story (in the book, Bean and the gang just waited the entire time to hunt Mr. Fox while their food got taken away without batting an eye, while in the movie, Bean was given a larger role to face off against Mr. Fox and his family and friends.)
Fantastic Mr. Fox and The Grand Hotel Budapest are Wes Anderson’s best work imo.
I remember going to see that movie with my family when it came out in theaters. I was 9, and I really enjoyed it then and still love it now.
After seeing Schaff rank the Roald Dahl shorts, I would love to see him do an Aardman ranking which includes all of the 30 minute Wallace and Gromit films
Heck Yes. Especially now that Chicken Run 2 is coming out.
Wes Anderson is one of the better directors in recent history. His unique style, consistent casting, immaculate colouring, interestingly intriguing sets and explainations, and dry humour that can go from whimsicalpy silly to down right cruel and dark
While studying design in Rome I got to show my work to the costume designer for Grand Budapest hotel. She immediately picked out my love of wes Anderson from my styles and choices, and meeting someone who supports his style so well made my entire year.
Wes Anderson is the biggest example of a director whose work can be imitated, but never duplicated. AI videos can seriously attest to that.
Honestly love it when Schaffrillas talks about movies that aren't just animated movies. More of this, please!
Well you have the Spielberg ranking
Imagine seeing him rank Martin Scorsese's films.
Love some variety 👍
Animation is something Schaffrillas has strong opinions on, thought he still prefers live action.
And remember, this ranking is just the beginning of him doing various writers and directors
I kinda wish to see schaffrillas make a laika animated movie ranking vid, but heck, you're completely right for wanting more variety, thats nice too 👍👍👍
I'll always have a certain fondness for Isle of Dogs, if only because of my memorable theatre experience. There were dogs literally everywhere in the theater. Loud rottweilers, little bouncy terriers, golden retrievers that looked like big living teddy bears, they were the cutest things. When the main dog, Chief, called the other dog "you son of a bitch", all the humans were like "oh 😲" and all the dogs barked. Definitely one of my favorite movie viewing experiences.
Fantastic Mr. Fox is phenomenal. The details were visually incredible. I also love the way they push the curse word barrier haha
Wes Anderson's iconic symmetrical camera angles is what makes him unique as a director. Every frame feels like an odd theatrical play or a picture book that makes the world feels larger-than-life to tell the story.
Finally someone liked French Dispatch as much as I do! It’s such a delight. Wes actually wins when working on smaller scale. All shorts stories are relatively bolder in style and decisions than his “full” films. It’s just nice to see him go all out and know that you still have a bit more of the same, but different experience ahead of you in a nice ribbon tight package. Grand Budapest is also my favourite movie of his, but damn French Dispatch is just so charming.
I was blown away by both of those movies. The animated chase scene was when I knew the French Dispatch had knocked it out of the park.
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou is my favorite. It was the first Wes Anderson movie I enjoyed and made me re-watch his others.
I think Bill Murray's disconnected performance is perfect for the character and his story.
I just watched it for the first time and sobbed at the ending. I’m watching Wes’s films chronologically and it’s definitely my favourite so far
@@danclayton9551
It's such a good mix of funny and emotional. And it definitely throws you curves.
I got happier and happier every time French Dispatch didn’t show up on the list. It’s a great example of how a truly great movie starts after the ending. One of my favorites.
Hell. YES. CinemaWins once said if he could describe Wes Anderson films in one word, it would be "whimsy". I'm inclined to agree! And I'm stoked to see your take on them!
Verified creator with no replies, lemme fix that
I liked Asteroid City, I thought of the main theme being Existentialism and the frustration of life. My older sister saw it as a representation of Wes’ frustration with the Covid 19 pandemic and being stuck in one place without being able to leave, and what being stuck with your thoughts does.
I loved all the meta touches to it, like how the son character was played not by the play's regular actor, but by the understudy. Also, that friggin' cowboy song by that kid in the class is one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen.
My senior quote was “if what I think is happening is happening it better not be.” From Fantastic Mr. Fox. My family and I love that movie so much
Darjeeling Limited is actually my favorite Wes Anderson film. It has a great mix of his witty style, very funny moments, and really investing characters with great character arcs, and an emotional story about dealing with grief.
I think it would be cool if you did a Don Bluth movie ranking. It would be like a good combination of a director ranking and an animation studio ranking.
This!! None of my favourite tv/film analysis CZcamsrs have done Don Bluth yet 😭
A Troll in Central Park would be an obvious “Disappointment in the Game of Life!”
@@what_memes_are_these9824 I have a weird soft spot for it because that was one of the only videos my grandma had so I watched it a lot as a kid, but it's definitely one of the weakest 😂
If you want to see a Don Bluth ranking, watch “Just Stop”’s video analyzing and ranking every Don Bluth film!
What about a double ranking on Ralph Bakshi and Bluth?
Wes Anderson is probably one of the most unique directors ever....his movies are always top presentation but honestly his stop motion movies are absolute bangers
I really love seeing how you've grown and evolved so much as a content creator! Seeing Scahff begin to cover films outside of animation with just as much attention to detail and humor as always? Sign me up! Plus this means I'm one step closer to getting a Every Lars Von Trier Movie Ranked!
Finally someone who ranks the french dispatch higher
Fantastic Mr Fox, is Legitimately one of the best animated films of the 2000s. Even more impressive that it came out so close to that decades end.
Wes Anderson is def one of the most talented Hollywood directors ever! His vision makes wonder and daze in an amazing way
Edgar Wright next????
Also, I love this ranking. Totally valid critiques and well placed rankings. Glad to see someone enjoys The French Dispatch as much as me.

Why did you do it in that order?
@@landonwyndham979it's the order the movies were released
didnt realise it was in order of release at first and was shocked by some of the rankings lol
I'm happy to see the French Dispatch so high, its my favourite of his and one of my favourite films of all time. I think the anthology format helps focus Wes for each story to make them feel unique, with their own music, themes and energy, it keeps me hooked for each story. They're like fireworks of story.
Agreed. I wish Schaff would've mentioned the Owen Wilson segment, though. Granted, it's shorter, but it totally fits the local-flavor feel that also belongs in a magazine.
Honestly to me Asteroid City is probably my favorite and I think one part of that is if you unravel the plotlines I feel it ultimately is MORE about trying to understand your purpose in the universe and coming to the conclusion that there isn't one so you have to make it yourself. Like realizing the wifes death didn't have much meaning but that doesn't make her life less important is kinda the point of that plot.
Also I will mention they actually state that the climax of the asteroid city plot is actually the same as the play plot! In the actual plot of the play the guy has a meeting with his dead wife where she helps him understand stuff, which is mirrored by him running into the woman who was going to play his wife who metaphorically died by going to a different production. They're actually even running through the dialogue that was supposed to be in that scene
I've found Life Aquatic becomes stronger with each rewatch. I think Murray's performance is perfect for this character and the odd, dysfunctional world that has been created around him. I find the film's overall strangeness and unpredictable tonal shifts to be endearing, making it a top 3 Anderson for me. Anyway, thanks for doing this ranking!
Absolutely! I love that movie, it's extremely stunning and way more character-focused focused which makes its story all the more interesting.
(plus Sigur Rós)
I like it less each time, not to say I dislike it. Wes Anderson hasn’t made a bad film
Thank you for speaking on the Roald Dahl shorts, all of them are so damn good. I was legit glued to my screen watching them.
As someone who grew up in the alps and because the stories my grandmother told me about her work in gastro-service, The Grand Budapest Hotel is by far my favourite movie by him. He really captured it perfectly.
Wes is truly a miracle of a director. Truly a man that can do no wrong. From direction to characters to writing, it’s all so indescribable flawless.
I wholeheartedly second this.
So Asteroid City is my 3rd favorite Wes film (after French Dispatch and Grand Budapest like yourself) because I read the main theme as being soley about deriving meaning from art but in this case more from the perspective as being a part of it. Jason Schwartzmans actor character can’t fully deliver on the play character’s grief precisely because he doesn’t understand it either and has to take his own artistic risks to bring it to life. To me, one of the lessons of the film is that art is created by everyone involved in the process and not just a single figurehead. That plays into also why the playwright wasn’t so worried about his own intent as well, he trusted everyone else to help him along the way. Still I’m just glad to find another French Dispatch lover
Yeah, I think this rings extremely true. The fact that there are so many characters, and that the stories feel unfinished is kinda part of the point of the film.
Like, idk, I find it weird that most of the criticism surrounding the film are literally just people pointing out the same problems the actors do, despite the film being all about those criticisms and how art is not always going to be finished or complete, or have its purpose be revealed to you.
I always told myself that if I ever live my dream and become an actor, I’d work with Wes Anderson nonstop
Fun fact: in Jim Jarmusch's film Paterson, the kids from Moonrise Kingdom make a cameo as themselves, a few years older, riding on a bus. It made me a little weepy when I first saw it. Definitely check that movie out if you have time!
Oh wow, this is like the first time I've ever seen anyone bring up Paterson ever! Absolutely wonderful and super underrated film ♡
I would honestly love if he reviewed all of Don Bluth's movies. Maybe not even just the ones he directed, but also all the sequels to his movies for some variety.
Buddy that video would have to be two parts for Land Before Time alone
If sequels were included, half of it would be Land Before Time.
That would be awesome as well. I think that my favorite Don Bluth movie is between Anastasia and Titan AE.
@@gabbyhaynes5394 Jenny Nicholson already took that bullet for us
Saberspark barely survived watching all of the land before time movies.
Dont give the crab any ideas
I think Schaff should make a Tim Burton ranking.
The man has made many great movies and also stinkers so it would be interesting to see a ranking of his filmography
I’m just shocked to learn that there are more lyrics to “Disappointment in the game of life”
You know it’s a good day when Schaffrillas uploads a video raking the works of a popular property or person.
Eh Yeah
Wes' style of movies is a weird yet lovable treat to watch almost each and every time.
One that you look at and go "wtf" but you try it and it's A LOT better then expected.
Loved this ranking!! seeing you talk so positively about movies that didn't actively make you want to bang your head against the wall was super fun and enjoyable :D
I've watched the Grand Budapest with my parents and we absolutely LOVED it. I was delighted to see it ranked that high and I would love to see you make a full video all about the movie.
This ranking is just a huge reminder that i really need to watch more Wes Anderson flicks(so far I’ve only watched 3, those being Fantastic Mr fox, isle of dogs, and Asteroid city ).
I couldn’t agree with you more, the French dispatch and the grand Budapest hotel are both masterpieces that deserves to be at the top.
5:30 missed opportunity to say “the Wes Anderson Gang, doin’ the Wes Anderson thang.”
Literally as soon as I saw Grand Budapest Hotel was #1, I dropped everything, went and watched it, and came back. I did it because I recognized the movie from one of YMS's Top Ten movies of whatever year this movie came out videos, where he showed one of the clips that immediately came to my mind when this video started. You did it, Schaff.
You did it James! A ranking video that doesn’t start with "Disappointment in the Game of Life"!! 😂😂😂

@@gleam6370ur kidding
This is a great new direction for this type of series! Super excited for more videos like this!
I watched the Royal Tennenbaums ages ago and was a little too young to fully appreciate it, but watching this video made me realize how much the music stuck with me. Subconsciously whenever I heard the Police and Thieves and Me and Julio I associated it with that movie and that speaks volumes to how well Wes Anderson scored it
Seeing Dev Patel appear in a Wes Anderson project after seeing him in the live action Avatar Last Airbender is amazing.
"HONEEEEYYY!! Schaffrillas has dropped a video!"
"Coming!"
I really liked this video. Like, adored it. I have only seen 1 or 2 Wes Anderson films but it’s clear that Schaff had a blast making this. Please don’t ever stop making positive reviews/rankings, they are so fun to watch :D
He’s honestly my favorite director and always has been. I’m so happy to see him get the love he deserves
“I’ve had a rough year dad” is probably the scene that describes everything amazing about Wes. Probably second to Charlie Kaufman for my favorite filmmaker. I only agreed with you on a single spot numerically (Bottlerocket) but I also agreed with most of what you said.
@@T.extmeSchaffrillasProductions bots are getting lazy now, no emoji’s?
Fantastic Mr. Fox is truly *FANTASTIC* and whatnot. It's a shame it's no longer on Disney+
It’s on Netflix
It's on Max and Hulu
Aaaar mateeey
@@skullkid-kazooie8277correct answer
Yes it is. At least in Europe.
If you want to expand your entertainment rankings a bit further, doing rankings of stage performances (plays and musicals) would be amazing to see. Id love to hear your thoughts on a ranked Sondheim list
i grew up with The Grand Budapest Hotel. Every chance we could borrow the dvd from our library we did. I always loved the colors and the way everything was shot, showing how Wes Anderson’s cinematography could reach all audiences. the two leads were the most hilarious things to me, especially zero. so glad you love this movie as much as I do.
Been a die hard Wes stan for about 6 years now, Darjeeling is my favorite film ever. Working on my ranking video at the moment lol.
I finally managed to see Grand Budapest a few weeks ago. I’ve seen about half of Wes’ filmography, and I was absolutely blown away by the scale of the movie. It really does feel like he is firing on all cylinders. Nothing else stood a chance on what is his magnum opus.
Also, Wes is from Houston, and as someone who is also from Houston, I’m really glad to see that we have two great directors (the other being Richard Linklater) to represent us.
I love this! Excited to hear you talk more about different directors
Would definitely love to see more director driven lists from you
I remember watching Fantastic Mr. Fox on DVD as a kid with my family, and after the movie was over we found out my sister’s one-eyed guinea pig named Pirate passed away while we were watching it
Suffice to say, it’s been a while since I last watched it
We eating good today
Who’s here after Wes Anderson won his first Academy Award for The Wonderful Story Of Henry Sugar?
Okay, first of all, amazing video. I'd love to see you do this with more directors.
However, I would also like to see you rank your Top 20 Favorite Movies of All Time.
I love the French Dispatch. My favourite character is the one writer who isn't named, has no dialogue, and never published a single article for the magazine. He genuinely adds so much to the scenes he's in.
All watching Asteroid City in theaters had taught me the following: I really need to see more of Wes Anderson's films besides Fantastic Mr. Fox which I had seen years ago and really liked it
I think what I love the most about Wes Anderson is his style of filmmaking. I've only five of his eleven movies (this video was how I found out his filmography was that small, I used to think he had like thirty under his belt...), but I just adore how he makes every shot feel like it's taking place on a literal stage. Like if you zoomed out and viewed the shot from afar, it'd be taking place on a theater stage, with an entire audience watching it all unfold in front of them. It's such an unorthrodox, yet unique style that I just can't help but gaze at and adore.
Definitely going to check out/rewatch some of his stuff in the future. I'm really feeling the mood for his stuff and some more Studio Ghibli content too.
Pls do Alvin and the chipmunks review
Fantastic Mr. Fox and Isle of Dogs are revolutionary.
This is unexpected, but it is indeed a very nice surprise
The fact that we might finally get to hear him talk about Jaws and Jurassic Park on his channel is very exciting.
Great video! If you're going to be making future rankings based off directors, then I'd LOVE to see you rank all DON BLUTH films! He's one of my favorite, and most inspirational, animators.
Wes Anderson has mastered the pinnacle of quirky art
Not this goofy bot💀😭
Wes literally made movies that nobody else can.
I don't know why but Isle of Dogs it´s just a simple movie that warms my heart. And the oriental theme is awsome.
I have watched it as the same time as Kubo and the Magic Strings. Are top tier stop motions for me
Damn, Wes Anderson is such an underrated director, filmed some of my favourite movies including Fantastic Mr. Fox and Isle Of Dogs. Nice to see he's getting some love!
Would love to see more of this kind of content! I do not always agree with your rankings but I still like hearing your perspective. You are very good at communicating your thoughts which makes your videos very enjoyable. Great job, keep it up! :)
It’s pretty cool to see Schaffrillas do a director’s filmography ranking. Always love the detail he puts into ever list.
As someone who was forced to watch nearly every significant Hitchcock movie for a class, I desperately hope he’s somewhere on your list for this series 😅😂 excited to see you branch out!
I really get your critique of asteroid city and Jason schwartzman’s character, but I really adore the character. His overly analytical view, combined with the grief and depression he’s struggling with, all really hit home with me.
I LOVED French Dispatch, im glad that you gave it a fair shake. Probably my personal favorite. The stories were so impactful to me, I cant explain why. It just felt so moving to watch, the experience in the theater was just spectacular
Do Steven Spielberg. The video would be like 9 hours long but it’d be awesome.
He already logged all the Spielberg movies on letterboxd it will probably be out before the end of the year
Nice video bro, now lets wait for the pikmin 4 review :)
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
