the comparioson you make is not apt. Lynch's movies have plots. that is not what I HATE about them. I hate his fucking "weirdness" for no other reason than to be weird, which he suffuses innto all his latest movies. pointlessness. I cannot stand pointlessness in a movie. if I am going to waste 2 hours or more of my life on a film (and yes, I pretty much consider movies a waste of time) then I want first and foremost to be entertained, which his movies do not do, and secondly I want to b given the tools IN the movie itself to understand the movie itself.
Lynch's movies are like a book that you read, and cannot understand, until you read a book detailing why the author did wht he did. I find that masturbatory and self-flaggelating.
Lynch will be forgotten as a self-cock-stroking asshole. my prediction for the next 50 years.
