He may love his fans a little too much, but still...he loves them!

:waiting for Lynch fans to start posting theories as to the possible meaning of the panties-in-mouth symbolism:

I don't even think I know who that is ...

Um...I wouldn't expect anything less from him.

Genius.

I think I read once that John Waters autographed someone's used tampon.

And Werner Herzog was giving a TV interview outdoors in a park and he actually GOT SHOT by someone at random, and he kept on giving the interview!

I love film directors who give until it hurts.

Lnych is fucked up! i always thought he has a strange speech pattern

OzlemUcucu said:

i love the way he talks - he sounds like he stepped out of a 1953 hygiene filmstrip.

Anxiety said:

True, what is that film about mullholland drive - i still dont understand the controversy? Can you explain if you are in the know!

OzlemUcucu said:

it was controversial??

well, i know it was initially intended to be a tv series, but the network refused it, so david lynch decided to cobble it into a movie. is that what you're talking about?

Anxiety said:

I have no clue what his real intentions were, but the movie is controversial, there are hundreds of theories about the plot etc - Í wanna know what it is that makes mulhoulland drive so popular?

OzlemUcucu said:

well, if you look into any of his movies, you're going to find lots of theories about what they mean. i think his latest one, "inland empire" is even more of a puzzle than "mulholland dr." generally, though, i think it's part of the fun of enjoying david lynch films. after you watch them, you get to try to figure out what you just saw.

OzlemUcucu said:

two stories, many interpretations.....

the whole movie changes after the box is opened!

as for intentions.....I don't think you should look for Lynch' intentions, it will fuck you up!

Still have to see Inland Empire.....

Anxiety said:

I like Lynch and all, but I'd eat her panties and any other parts she wanted to put in my mouth.

Hey Bierman, I was checking earlier if you are around. Good to see you again! I know there are many interpretations about Mullhoulland Drive - but there are fanboards arguing months and months about those damn controversies - and i dont understand anything! I fucking dont! What is the underlying theme of the film?

OzlemUcucu said:

Oh, this you can go on and on about..... The cool thing is that Lynch himself won't comment on it..... Everytime you see this movie again, you'll make something different of it...

Let's just say this: Betty is Diane's projection of a happier life.
I think you should try to keep it as simple as possible (which is kinda hard!).

this should help (or not):

I am trying to send an orgnote to both of you!

Yes kids:

abierman said:

i love that david lynch doesn't explain his movies. he assumes his audiences are smart and imaginative enough to take things away from his films, and he doesn't insult us by holding our hands through everything, even though some people might want him to. well, tough!

i watched the documentary about him recently, and i think it sheds a lot of light on his scriptwriting that lynch is a big fan of transcendental meditation. a lot of his movies blur the physical world with the dream world and ask the question: is one more important or valid or "real" than the other?

i think that's the crux of what ALL his films are about.

Anxiety said:

Yes, i agree on that! I saw behind the scenes on m-drive. He seems so relaxed to work with, a bizarre unsual guy. Is he not underrated?

OzlemUcucu said:

he seems to be a very friendly person who has a great sense of humor, but you can tell there's a very angry dark side bubbling under the surface.

Anxiety said:

i totally agree with you. i wonder if he is a difficult guy, people who worked with him seem to love him - his assistants etc - i am kinda intrigued by this guy!

OzlemUcucu said:

laura dern worked with him way back in the early 90s on "wild at heart", and she went so far as to co-produce "inland empire" so she could work with him again, even if she was putting her own money into it. so at least ONE person thinks he's great to work with!

Anxiety said:

You are talking about co-producers, i was referring to lower staff i.e. his inner circle helpers, they love him too i think, i heard he gives them good credit, but is he not underrated?

OzlemUcucu said:

oh, i see. i think it was a couple of crew members/interns who filmed the documentary about him that was released within the last year, no?

and yes, i think he's criminally underrated. then again, i'm a fan so i'm biased.

i don't necessarily need him eating my underpants, though.

abierman said:

i LOVE this.

"get real!"

Yes, i think that is what i am referring to - the video. I watched another video of him in a press conference - he is totally fucked up, that speech pattern is very specific. He is so not hollywood like to me. If you are fan, you should now about those Mullh-drive controversies,those fanboards are full with those.

OzlemUcucu said:

oh, sure. i just never thought of it as a "controversy" i think of it more like a puzzle, or like conspiracy theories or something.
