Cinemecca's Most Anticipated Films of 2012

By Paco McCullough

A quick note before I begin- this list is based off of films for which I can get information easily, i.e. primarily Hollywood films. This is not a bias against Indie films, it's just that they generally fly under the radar until closer to their release.

Cult Films: The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)

By Jason Haskins

Texas native Wes Anderson came onto the scene with his directorial debut, Bottle Rocket, in 1996, which introduced the world to a younger Owen Wilson. His next feature boosted his reputation and is still a cult classic today--you might know it as Rushmore, starring Jason Schwartzman. It was in 2001 that he caught my attention with his magnum opus, The Royal Tenenbaums. All of the quirky qualities of his first two films remained and came together perfectly in this film. With an all-star cast he made one of the best films ever made--this is literally my favorite movie of all time.
