perhaps if you are complaining about "the Jewish mob," people might not be entirely off based labeling you as a "Nazi"? just a thought.

despite massive public demand, he was arbitrarily labeled a Nazi,

this sentence is a wonder

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 26 April 2016 18:57 (eight years ago) link

on top of all that, only recently found out he isn't even really a dwarf, the lying little shit

I did hear that there was some huge dustup on his FB page at some point; these days it seems to be all Sanders stuff. maybe he posted anti-israel stuff and people got mad, no idea.

Erse Máire Paddy (wins), Tuesday, 26 April 2016 19:10 (eight years ago) link

circa1916, Tuesday, 26 April 2016 19:22 (eight years ago) link

yeah I don't think he's joking

Holly Kariya I remember that and then the next day was 9/11 and the story just went away.

maybe a conspiracy minded lefty, but not seeing evidence of raging anti-antisemitism. that bio just read like some 4-chan style internet graffiti to me but i'm not exactly looking to do this research at work.

circa1916, Tuesday, 26 April 2016 20:09 (eight years ago) link

oooh, i see that bio is on his FB page and not like wikipedia or something. n/m, walking away from that one.

The zionists are not what they seem.

Regardless of his politics, TP without The Man from Another Place is surely a hugely diminished thing.

Mr. Hathaway. (jed_), Tuesday, 26 April 2016 23:56 (eight years ago) link

'hugely'?

wizzz! (amateurist), Wednesday, 27 April 2016 12:16 (eight years ago) link

I'd be okay with them substituting The Mystery Man from The Lost Highway as some kind of unholy hybrid between the man from another place and Bob.

Mr. Hathaway. (jed_), Wednesday, 27 April 2016 22:01 (eight years ago) link

Bob and the Man From Another Place both being gone seems kind of fitting. Maybe Al Strobel will appear restored, with both arms lol

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 27 April 2016 22:09 (eight years ago) link

There were other spirits, remember. Perhaps freaky high top fade dude will take center stage this time.

haha I don't remember that one is that from FWWM

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 27 April 2016 22:32 (eight years ago) link

Yeah, while Bowie is recounting his adventures above the convenience store.

Your Ass Is Grass And I Will Mow It With My Face (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 27 April 2016 22:38 (eight years ago) link

the actor who played that guy is back

Outic haven't you seen FWWM??

akm, Wednesday, 27 April 2016 22:41 (eight years ago) link

a bunch of times but come on there's a ton of random shit in there I can't remember everything!

For real?! I mean, I'm happy the creep will be there (I've been considering that Halloween costume for years), but if anyone could've easily been recast... Kudos to Lynch's loyalty to his original cast!

Your Ass Is Grass And I Will Mow It With My Face (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 27 April 2016 23:06 (eight years ago) link

don't diminish the jumping talents of Carlton Lee Russell

akm, Thursday, 28 April 2016 00:25 (eight years ago) link

anyway I'm in the process of acquiring the fan edit of FWWM with the missing pieces scenes edited back in. Wonder if Lynch will ever do this himself. The Bowie scene and the 'above the convenience store' scene make way more sense in the Missing Pieces.

akm, Thursday, 28 April 2016 00:44 (eight years ago) link

That seems to have been Lynch's 'thing' back then, extracting bits until the narrative doesn't quite make sense. I was fairly disappointed after watching the deleted Wild At Heart scenes in the Lime Green box, as I realized that the story was initially much more linear and straightforward (relatively speaking, of course) and seemed to have been deliberately weirded up after the fact.

Your Ass Is Grass And I Will Mow It With My Face (Old Lunch), Thursday, 28 April 2016 02:05 (eight years ago) link

the version of TP:FWWM that's in the full script is annoyingly straightforward by comparison with the finished film. i'm glad he left it as it is.

wizzz! (amateurist), Thursday, 28 April 2016 16:43 (eight years ago) link

wild at heart would probably be lynch's worst film in any iteration.

wizzz! (amateurist), Thursday, 28 April 2016 16:43 (eight years ago) link

yeah it's easily his worst

Οὖτις, Thursday, 28 April 2016 16:44 (eight years ago) link

it's the closet thing to lynch self-parody. i guess he was overextending himself in the early 1990s.

wizzz! (amateurist), Thursday, 28 April 2016 16:46 (eight years ago) link

er, closest

wizzz! (amateurist), Thursday, 28 April 2016 16:46 (eight years ago) link

it's probably his worst but i still like it *shrugs*

someday i hope there's a tell-all exposé on the making of Duran Duran: Unstaged

I look forward to hearing from you shortly, (Karl Malone), Thursday, 28 April 2016 16:48 (eight years ago) link

I think it's some combination of hubris, over-work and Barry Gifford being a shitty writing partner

Οὖτις, Thursday, 28 April 2016 16:53 (eight years ago) link

I'd probably take Wild at Heart over Lost Highway, Dune, and a Fire Walk With Me. ~controversial ilx opinions~

circa1916, Thursday, 28 April 2016 17:01 (eight years ago) link

Lost Highway is like 2/3rds of a good movie (I have serious objections to the way Richard Pryor was used), Dune is fantastic, FWWM has plenty redeeming qualities. WAH is just a mess, it has no center, it's just a bunch of empty gestures.

Οὖτις, Thursday, 28 April 2016 17:02 (eight years ago) link

I love a lot of things about Wild at Heart (Laura Dern, the use of color, the jarring transitions between scenes), but it goes very far into mannerism.

one way street, Thursday, 28 April 2016 17:05 (eight years ago) link

IDK how Lost Highway, Dune, or FWWM are in any way LESS of a mess.

Anyway, won't derail. Definitely talked about this on another thread.

circa1916, Thursday, 28 April 2016 17:06 (eight years ago) link

FWWM is still one of the glories of Lynch's work, however desperately bleak it is.

one way street, Thursday, 28 April 2016 17:07 (eight years ago) link

The wild at heart extra scenes made me like it a lot more actually! Not really arguing for their inclusion, the film as it is is already fairly narratively straightahead, it really doesn't need another hour and also I still don't really like it

Gifford is not good, I read all the sailor & lula books recently & bleh, but lost highway is great

Fwwm is brilliant, the missing pieces are also great but I really don't understand the desire to watch a "fan edit" that mashes them together
