Heist planning notebook
While the notes are a bit juvenile, it looks like they contain a plan to lift an immunity idol from a future challenge. You just have to put some tape on your nose, then while participating in the upcoming Train Brawl challenge, find time to sneak off and post in your confessional once during each round of the battle. During the first round, you have to break into where the idol is located. Post "BREAK IN" into your submission thread. You need to do this before the round ends, or it'll be too late. During the second round, you'll need to grab the goods. Type "GRAB IDOL" in your confessional during round 2. Finally, during round three you need to get away with the goods. Type "ESCAPE" into your confessional during round 3.

Team Zissou rings
First off, you're going to want to put one of these bad boys on immediately. Team Zissou! Okay, now, at the time of your choosing, you may offer the other ring to any other player. Just post in your confessional when you decide to give it to someone. They'll need to post that they're accepting the ring in theirs. Then you're both members of Team Zissou, which means you cannot vote for one another. This will be true up through and including the final five.

Offer the Team Zissou ring to Young Writer

Done!

Young Writer has accepted the Team Zissou ring, so you both will be unable to vote for one another up through and including the final five Tribal Council. Welcome to Team Zissou!

ESCAPE

Wes Anderson · « **Reply #9 on:** September 08, 2021, 09:00:31 am »

Success! You have escaped from the melee with a Bandit hat. When worn, the bandit hat allows the wearer to evade any votes sent in their direction. Hat works up through and including the final 5.

Richie, although we were able to secure your release from the pirates into Rushmore Academy custody, the ransom cost us a pretty penny. I’m afraid this is going to set back production on your film.

Richie, we’re going to have to let one actor go. Who should we fire?

Am I making this decision for the Rushmore cast or th Ivanhoe cast?

Wes Anderson · « **Reply #13 on:** September 13, 2021, 09:06:39 am »

For you only! Meaning from the cast in the top post of this thread. This will alter your cast only.

Richie Tenenbaum · « **Reply #14 on:** September 13, 2021, 09:22:16 am »

Ah! Cut Saoirse Ronan.

Wes Anderson · « **Reply #15 on:** September 13, 2021, 09:24:04 am »

Saoirse Ronan has been fired from your picture.

For my movie soundtrack please use Needle in the Hay by Elliot Smith

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pyBB7y8fDU

If that is not considered classic rock please use She Smiled Sweetly by The Rolling Stones

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGhOnEmqEsk

Wes Anderson · « **Reply #17 on:** September 16, 2021, 09:24:22 am »

Both are fine! I will clarify though, you are creating a new movie with me in this flavor, so it doesn’t have to be a song already used in a Wes Anderson movie.

Richie Tenenbaum · « **Reply #18 on:** September 16, 2021, 09:25:32 am »

Understood, but they're both meaningful to me personally. I chose Richie as my character for a reason. Let's go with Needle in the Hay.

Wes Anderson · « **Reply #19 on:** September 20, 2021, 04:12:59 am »

Royal Tenenbaum has sent you some items!

Binoculars
These provide a great view down the Darjeeling tracks. You stand at mile marker 20. Looks like everything proceeds straight ahead until mile marker 14, at which point a second line comes in and there's a switch in the tracks. Also, looks like there's a small station at mile marker 16. Down at mile marker 12 the two tracks merge into one. That's about as far as you can see.

Team Zissou rings
First off, you're going to want to put one of these bad boys on immediately. Team Zissou! Okay, now, at the time of your choosing, you may offer the other ring to any other player. Just post in your confessional when you decide to give it to someone. They'll need to post that they're accepting the ring in theirs. Then you're both members of Team Zissou, which means you cannot vote for one another. This will be true up through and including the final five.

Mod note: At this time we are probably going to say you cannot activate a second set of Zissou rings while the first is still active. We will discuss a bit more before coming to a final ruling.

What in the world are those binoculars about?

Offer the Team Zissou ring to Madame D.

Wes Anderson · « **Reply #22 on:** September 23, 2021, 06:23:10 am »

Madame D. has accepted the Team Zissou ring.

Film Project title: This Closeness to Death

From Royal's dialogue in The Royal Tenenbaums, this is the comic moment when Richie responds to his father, "Dad, you were never dying" and Royal exclaims, "But I'm going to live!"

Premise/plot summary:

The first direct sequel in the Wes Anderson film catalogue, This Closeness to Death follows Luke Wilson returning to play a middle aged Richie Tenenbaum as an inpatient at a mental asylum. Imagine elements of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest interpreted in the classic Wes Anderson style. When he learns that the house at 111 Archer Avenue is being sold, Richie fakes a terminal cancer diagnosis out of a desire to get back one more time before the Tenenbaum family vacates the premises. Frances McDormand co-stars in the role of the nurse overseeing the psych ward. Jeff Goldblum and Willem Dafoe feature in supporting roles as fellow mental patients. In a cameo appearance utilizing stock footage from the original film the late Kumar Pallana reprises his role as Pagoda to assure the family once again that, "He has the cancer."

Congratulations…
