I can’t believe I’ve never drawn anything Bottle Rocket related but I finally got around to it. I have so much love and appreciation for this weird little movie.
Hello Wes Anderson fans, you guys definitely should not have access to this google drive that absolutely doesn't have every Wes Anderson movie plus all short films on it. Especially not if you live in Australia like I do and don't want to support Disney +. And especially especially not if you want to watch Bottle Rocket and can't find it on any streaming services. (I am a massive physical media fan and you should absolutely buy DVDs if you can, but uhh, just putting this here just in case)
To the Scott pilgrim fans that tend to come across my very Wes Anderson based blog because I draw Jason Schwartzman every now and then: thank you, you are seen, and you are appreciated.
HOW AM I ONLY NOW CHECKING MY INBOX, MY BIRTHDAY WAS 24 DAYS AGO. I AM SO SORRY USER icantthinkofaname6575. Also you are insanely based for the Hermes pfp, I adore that.

I’ll bite the hand that feeds me.” and Kate Bush wrote “The hounds of love are hunting. I’ve always been a coward.” and Anne Sexton wrote “You are not brave. You are alone like a dog in a kennel.” and Car Seat Headrest wrote “She said ‘what’s with this dog motif?’ and I said, ‘do you have something against dogs?’”
