Yes, I like both of those, even though his version of Fantastic Mr Fox is more Anderson than Dahl. But I do think Moonrise Kingdom and The Grand Budapest Hotel have a bit of poignancy to them too. However, much of the rest of his work I find too arch and smug, and here he's definitely crossed the line. :)
