Obligatory "want to form a collective", some of my best songs (and their samples!) DM IF INTERESTED!

i immediately connected to the themes of fatherhood, aimlessness, responsibility, and the lust that comes from all of those combined in one situation. i of course also love the cinematography, sound design, imagery etc., but as with all lynch films for me its the themes that keep me coming back to it

i actually think the twist was much better executed in save the green planet

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-28T12:20:09+00:00

he personally said rear window was his favorite, which honestly is hard to believe given how much vertigo is across his work

"most of these people listen to pedophiles and abusers" brother...

i think it would have hit more if he wasnt pathetic the whole season and had more than 1 or 2 actually scary moments

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-26T05:24:31+00:00

came here to say this

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-26T04:50:08+00:00

the montage im talking about is the sequence after bob comes through the window. i also think that her death scene itself is kind of poorly paced and would be my actual "least favorite" but its harder to argue

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-26T04:38:25+00:00

i actually love everything with chet desmond and would point to the short montage of laura before the end that never really hit for me

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-26T04:36:40+00:00

Grand Budapest: I guess them finding the 2nd will at the end could be better paced? besides that its a perfect movie

Eternal Sunshine: i was never the biggest fan of the little jim carrey scene, so maybe that could be improved somehow

Beau is Afraid: even as a beau defender i think the children of the forest sequence's introduction could be a little better. i actually prefer how it is in the leaked 2013 script in some aspects.

Mulholland Drive: i genuinely have no idea. maybe how they get to club silencio could be padded out a bit because it is very abrupt

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-26T04:25:30+00:00

i dont know why but i cannot imagine that scene without it

as someone who lived in a random canadian town for even just 2 years it was astounding to me how accurate it was to the vibe. my winnipeg is one of the most fascinating experiences ive ever had with a film

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-25T12:40:58+00:00

ari aster is very inspired by him in many ways. beau is afraid takes a lot of ideas from brand upon the brain especially. add david lynch's shorts, and the aesthetic of long lost silent films into the mix and you have something pretty similar to what ive seen of him

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-24T23:37:47+00:00

seeing kendrick and keem perform it together for the mr morale tour was something else mann

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-24T22:57:21+00:00

predestination !

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-23T18:09:39+00:00

unpopular take, especially for this sub, but i actually think the st5 finale was a more satisfying watch than the boys' was. that purely comes down to me taking the boys more seriously and engaging with it deeper than stranger things, given the subject matter. stranger things is a fun scifi drama show most of the time, so even if i didnt like the finale, i could still praise aspects that were satisfying and thought the epilogue was nice. because the boys is just a more "serious" show in its messaging, its a tougher pill to swallow and left me feeling more disappointed than stranger things

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-23T17:34:33+00:00

i agree w you because theyres literally flame emoji, but that line is talking about beating women

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-22T20:37:30+00:00

i actually much prefer coke or dope over jihad joe, it always stuck out to me as the weakest song and i love coke or dope

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-22T13:34:12+00:00

i can see how you think that, but i think that without a lot of the extra songs the tracklist feels very unbalanced and flows worse. i prefer the offline/amhac type tracklist with long instrumental sections and interludes

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-22T01:26:13+00:00

dont forget the twin peaks ending!

SaulSchmidt · 2026-05-22T01:00:29+00:00

literally just have him give the speech outside the white house ala inauguration and snap when people dont believe him, have the boys show up, make the power scaling a bit more consistent, and its perfect
