Late answer, but cool list! Taxi Driver, El Topo, Pierrot Le Fou, Possession and Persona would probably be on my top 10. Quote:
Yeah, I can see what you mean. I already have a couple of his films on the computer I haven't seen, La Notte and L'avventura, so I'll simply dig into his other stuff and eventually return to The Red Desert. Quote:
Care to develop that part? I've always been under the impression that Twin Peaks mainly was Lynch's baby, that it was born out of his ideas and that Mark Frost mostly helped structuring things up and turning it into a working television series (which is no small feat, obviously, but I don't consider that to be the genius behind the show). All the best episodes are directed by Lynch. Frost was obviously a big part of the project, but for me it's mostly Lynch's touch that makes me love it. And uhm, yeah, I obviously don't agree with all this Lynch bashing. He's done Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks, The Straight Story and Mulholland Drive for christ sake! |

Most of Lynch's movies have the same meaning for me, just like dreams themselves, which is NOTHING WHATSOEVER

Don't me wrong, Mulholland Drive is one of my top ten favourite movies. I just thought Inland Empire was pile of excessive Lynch masturbation.
![]() Fucking fantastic! Released in 1985.. just don't make classics like this anymore. Kurosawa starting become of my favourite directors! I think I liked Drunken Angel a little bit more. The actors were astounding. Will watch again! 10/10 |

I liked Inland. It's not his best. But I liked it.

Mark Frost created the show, most of the ideas, the characters and the storylines. Lynch directed like 4 of the episodes, got funding because of his name being attached, and collaborated with the "feel" of the show. I'd say both were indispensable in getting the show to be what it is, but Mark Frost was the reason the show exists; Lynch was busy making his films. Anyway, if you look over the years, most of the in interviews/articles with any real, concrete information about the show was directed at Mark Frost. And the problem with Frost being the main dude is that he also gets the blame for season 2's downfall, and he hasn't really done anything since of note (a shame, since he did the excellent Storyville). Of course, the reason a lot of season 2 sucks ass has to do with studio interference... why the fuck would their network want to reveal the killer? That's the reason most people watched the show! Now, on the other hand, Fire Walk With Me -- which is surely Lynch's best film next to Straight Story -- is more Lynch's baby... well... it's a bit more complicated than that, of course... but basically, Lynch shot, oh, 6 hours of footage for FWWM and what we're left with -- after all the various talented individuals who messed with it, like Mary Sweeney -- is kind of something more in the "director" vision of what Lynch usually aspires to do. All I was saying in my rant is that Lynch is no genius, he just works closely with talented people, and there's no better evidence to this fact than Inland Empire + recent short's messy, incoherent, ugly, loose, shakey structure (since Lynch hasn't worked with anyone except himself for most of that stuff ). But the same could be said for tons of directors; there aren't many true auteurs out there. |

...also, if you read Mark Frost interview from around the time his book "The List of Seven" was coming out, it reveals that even the supernatural/mystical aspects of the show were created by Frost, not Lynch! The look and sound of the show is really all Lynch (rather, his collaborators) had to do with it, THOUGH I agree he directed the best episodes. And apparently he collaborated quite closely on the VERY BEGINNING and VERY END of season 2. The best thing about Lynch's involvement with Twin Peaks is that he threw out a lot of the writing for the finale of season 2 -- which had been written to set up season 3. I guess Lynch probably knew more than anyone else, because he decided to kill off characters and just completely destroy plotlines, which angered Frost and the writers, but ultimately - -since it was cancelled -- it was for the best.
Oh, I want to clarify something, I said Frost hasn't done anything "Noteworthy"... well, he co-wrote the Fantastic Four movie, which made, who knows, a GAZILLION dollars, but I would hardly consider that noteworthy. I am taking a wild guess he's sitting around in his mansion making obscene phone calls to Sherilynn Fenn every night. |

Oh yeah
![]() 8/10 This movie is brilliant, though I can see how it might (did it?) upset some fans. Strange that Bato isn't on the cover. |

I saw "Ghost in the Shell 2" just about a month ago for the first time, even though I'd been wanting and meaning to see it since it was released. I really liked even if it can get pretty crazy with all the talk about machines and spirits. It gets a little hard to follow it all, but its still great.

I loved Innocence! I don't see how this movie would upset some fans? Its a solid update, although wish they didn't reboot Major's character's looks. All sexed up with purple hair, I preferred the plain, homely looking original Motoko. There is version with Batou on cover, but it think they changed it because the quality looked pretty shitty. I prefer the version with Batou's dog and the cyborg. Oh wait.. there is another version with Batou on the cover and it looks decent. ![]() this is the one i was talking about ![]() Still prefer the first one with Batou's dog. |
