Enter a caption (optional)For the stop-motion animated "Isle of Dogs," director Wes Anderson's fairly insane demand that all sets (and even effects like smoke, fire, water) be created practically provided the production designers with a serious challenge.

Have any of you actually seen the movie, by the way? And if so was it any good? (No spoilers please.) I know I could just read a review, but I want to know what the designers among you thought of it.

I thought the movie was cinematically beautiful and delightfully quirky, but it was a bit slow and tiresome and lazy solutions to plot challenges at crucial moments detracted from an otherwise enjoyable concept.
I haven't seen it yet. I hope they put out like a 2-hour long behind the scene video because this is just way too fast.
Yes! I actually thought the practical effects were very important in communicating the story. Personally, I tend to over-rationalize film plots so the stylized sets and characters helped me get over that and appreciate it at face value.
