I find it wierd sometimes that I love Wes Anderson's work Rushmore and beyond but didn't really like Bottle Rocket that much. The latter three are, as jjacob already said, just so detailed with the shots and the scenery and the acting so dry and funny. But Bottle Rocket, while awesome for a debut effort, compared to his other movies just seems amateurish (which might be its appeal).
I dislike how much of a cult figure Anderson is these days. Discredits his name, for me. The teenage cult movie culture at my school singlehandedly ruined Quentin Tarantino, Donnie Darko, Napoleon Dynamite, and A Clockwork Orange for me.
