I dressed up as Ben from Blue Velvet for a Lynch tribute night and did the "Candy Colored Clown" lipsynch. Still waiting for phone footage of the lipsync but in the meantime this:

I thought the lady who shot it this video was taking photos not a video. she calls me Kevin in the description. That's not my name.

I'm ready for it. I wonder if it will have any decent special features.
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Friday, 5 April 2019 17:53 (six years ago)
Sweet!

Apparently an announcement about special features is forthcoming.

It would be awesome if the dialog in the early scenes were a bit more audible. I always have to crank the volume to make sense of it, and then I get slammed by that fucking maniacal sax solo.

I’ve had LH on blu for, like, 6 years. Has it not been available some places?
― an incoherent crustacean (MatthewK), Saturday, 6 April 2019 01:19 (six years ago)
not region 1. saw some people complaining about the current blu transfer, said the movie's "never been graded correctly," though of course it's hard to get it right with such a (literally) dark movie

#LostHighway upcoming US Blu-ray release is rumored to have the following special features:Audio commentary with Film Historian Tim LucasOne-hour interview with #DavidLynch Booklet Essay by Film Critic Nick PinkertonAnimated Image Gallery Trailer— Ivan (@underthefan113) April 17, 2019
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 18 April 2019 02:00 (six years ago)
Saw on a different board that at the very least the Lucas interview had been dropped according to Lynch's longstanding stance on commentary tracks and that the only extra would be the trailer :/ Can't confirm, of course, but it wouldn't be the first time.

honorary Oscar this fall

That makes me nervous
― flappy bird, Friday, 7 June 2019 17:38 (six years ago)
because...?
― a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Friday, 7 June 2019 17:48 (six years ago)
Presumably because it's like a first draft epitaph.
Is fall a normal time for the awarding of honorary Oscars? Is there any reason they couldn't give him props on the telecast?
― Try Oscar Mayer and Hellmann's new Bolognnaise! (Old Lunch), Friday, 7 June 2019 18:14 (six years ago)
They stopped giving honorary Oscars roughly around the same time they decided they needed 10 best picture nominees.

The oscars are bad not good and nobody should pay the slightest attention but these “honorary” ones can be quite funny

Geena Davis (humanitarian), Wes Studi, and Lina Wertmuller also getting em, and i think you can connect the dots

Yeah, the epitaph aspect. I’m just thinking of Altman getting one months before he died.

Why do you even need to go on living when you’ve achieved the artistic pinnacle that is the begrudging acknowledgment award

True. Did Hitchcock get his after Family Plot?

It frustrates me that a lot of Lynch fans I know IRL dont rate this movie because its not grotesque enough (though they'd never admit that's the reason)
― One Eye Open, Friday, 21 June 2019 19:52 (six years ago)
I love it but it's such an outlier even I sometimes forget about it.
― Chris L, Friday, 21 June 2019 20:08 (six years ago)
except in the ways that it's not an outlier (detailed by Nayman).

The Straight Story is his most Lynchian film wtf
Dunno if I’d say that but it is way lynchian for sure

If I define his ethos, broadly, as, "unearthing the unexpected in the most banal of surfaces," then TSS is at the top of the triumphs.

I think a lot of ppl would say a certain type of dread is a necessary component (but tss isn’t even completely free of that!)
― shhh / let peaceful like things (wins), Friday, 21 June 2019 20:51 (six years ago)
The most Lynchian is definitely a stretch, especially now that we have the all-you-can-eat Lynch buffet that is Twin Peaks season 3.
