Voice and The Auteur Theory

I decided to watch 3 Wes Anderson films due to the fact that i had already seen a few. Anderson, unfortunately, is one of my least favorite directors. I really dont like his work.
Some of the key features that I noticed throughout his work are:
-He makes obsessive and comedic use of rostrum camera insert shots
-He ended all of his films with a slow motion shot
-He likes to shoot with extremely wide-angle anamorphic lenses with barrel distortion
-Frequently uses a take/double take technique
-His films often focus around a broken or unorthodox family
-At least one of his characters is usually a grown man seeking the approval of a parent or parent figure.
-All of the titles are in yellow
-Themes of white middle-class and upper-class issues
-Many straight on shots
