RIP David Lynch

[jellodog]

I loved that guy. His films and shows have been a fixture of my life since a teenager.

If you've never watched David Lynch cooking Quinoa, and you've nothing better to do, then here it is:





I can't fully explain why I like it, but I do enjoy it so. I suppose it's got something to do with the everyday aspect of it, mixed with odd details and of course just hanging out with Lynch himself and his unique way of speaking.

Damn, that’s a bummer for sure. RIP!

Also a fan. I was really into Lynch when i was young. Such a great man.

Just saw that. Definitely a bummer. I love his films.

RIP indeed. Always a bit too weird for my tastes overall but Blue Velvet and Wild At Heart always struck a chord with me \m/

Yeah, Blue Velvet was the first movie of his that I saw. Suffice to say that at that tender age... it was a bit of an eye-opener!

This is a huge bummer, one of my favorite directors

That was a WILD one! I need to rewatch it!

Hopper is genuinely disturbing in that. Still creeps me out just thinking about it!

DON'T YOU FUCKING LOOK AT ME!

 

[jellodog]

DON'T YOU FUCKING LOOK AT ME!

Well now I have to go change my pants.

Again.

Lynch is a huge inspiration for me, not just his films but his whole view on life and creativity. It’s so telling how many musicians resonate with his work. Hard to pick my favourite, and in many ways there are common threads that tie them together.

One of a kind human being.

Irreplacable. Vale Mr Lynch.

My dad loves Twin peaks. I didn't watch it because I don't like horror.

I am a fan of the soundtrack though.

I really loved Mulholland drive. I skipped through the violent parts. It's themes not only apply to show Business but also life in general. The way they depicted Naomi Watts' character in the movie, everyone will have a crush on her and also pity her at the same time.

TBF I think mullholand drive is more “horror”y than twin peaks…. Twin peaks is more like a bizarre soap opera/drama/procedural on acid

 

[spawnofthesith]

Lost highway is probably the most “horror”ish of the whole “California trilogy”!(lost highway/mullholand/inland empire) and calling them a trilogy isn’t really accurate since they’re independent from each other but still kind of an overal grouping

 

[spawnofthesith]

Inland empire is dense AF and possibly the weirdest of all of them lol

More sad news.
He was a brilliant film maker.
Twin Peaks was on one night and repeated on another every week in the UK and I used to record it on VHS .
I still never understood what the hell was going on
I didn’t know he did the Elephant man with Mel Brooks until it was on the news .
I always thought it was just Mel.
