I was "meh" until the last sentence. That made the whole clip.

This is already in the YouTube thread.
A for effort though.

Lynch's hatred of women is way smaller on my iPhone!

Let's not get all picky about threads, my friend.

I mean, we don't want this to turn into AST again!

No mere YouTube thread can hold this impending discussion!

Lynch hates women?

NEIN, I say, and I'm guessing most of the women who've worked with him would answer just as resoundingly.  An actual woman asked him about this at the Inland Empire Q&A I attended and first he assured her he doesn't have a problem, which got a laugh.  Then he said something about how his characters have to suffer to reach some other place in the story, and I guess that all inevitably gets tied in with his feelings about boobies and stuff.  The Woman then thanked him for exploring "the shadow side" of the female species.  "Bless your heart," said Lynch, and it all turned into a slightly weird feel-good moment.

I don't know, I was sold on Mulholland Drive, but I'd be lying if I said that there weren't moments of concern for me in Lost Highway and Inland Empire.  Maybe that's cause I saw them on small screens.  But, you know, mostly I was just trying to make a joke.  I love David Lynch.  He's probably my favorite director ever.

Me too! I was afraid I was subliminally buying into some creepy mysogynism that I was not aware of. Thanks for putting my mind at rest.

The only quote on the back of the new Twin Peaks definitive gold boxed set:

"I think this is a great definitive Twin Peaks gold set" -David Lynch

I just got "Catching the Big Fish" on cd, read by the author himself. Highly entertaining and inspiring even if you don't go in for trans med.

The stuff he is hawking on his web site is just embarrassing.  Coffee?

Some of the stuff he's been doing recently is the lowest-fi, most poorly shot garbage I've ever seen.  Have you seen Boat, or the rest of the drek on the Dynamic:01 DVD?  It's awful, awful, awful.  He wants to use some digital camera he bought at Walgreens, and then criticize other people's use of technology? 

Dumbland is pretty hilarious, though.

Long as he keeps making films like Inland Empire, I don't care what he does on the side.

Since when is reasonably priced, fair trade organic coffee a bad thing?
