 | damn, I've watched the TV-series, but still haven't seen the movie.
 It's cheap to (DVD), so maybe I should buy it. I do want the
 first season to.
 Lynch is the man.

 | Lynch's movies are great as long as one doesn't make the mistake of thinking that he is glorifying the darkness
 portrayed in his movies, because I really think it is meant
 to be commentary rather than glorification.  If one is
 mature enough to watch them in that light, that is great,
 although when I first got into Lynch I thought of it more as
 something weird and messed up to watch while I was on drugs.
 For that reason I won't recommend his movies to everyone,
 but for someone who is mature and capable of discernment
 they are wonderful films.

 | dune is the only film of his that i dont like, no one mentioned the straight story, thats a great more obviously
 straight forward film, but excellent nonetheless, whats with
 people saying they just rented eraserhead? isnt it banned
 everywhere? ive never seen it in any video store ever in the
 usa that ive been to. i still need to pick up the dvd of
 that and the short films.
 
 also, anyone own the lumiere dvd? i saw it used for $10 and
 was wondering if its worth since theres like 80 short films
 on it total.

 | I liked them all, bar Blue Velvet (I think it COULD have 
 been great, but truely piss- poor acting by the lead
 character and some really dodgey script put me off)
 
 
 Ah haha hahha haa haaa haaa
 
 I pity the fool. I do.

 | Perhaps FLUX, you should read over what I said AFTERWARDS instead of picking on my initial mistake.
 
 On a side note: Why the hell is Eraserhead an 18, or banned?
 I mean, it's dark and weird, but there is hardly any sex, no
 swearing, no "violence" as such...hmm..

 | I caught "The Elephant Man" the other night too.. I really liked it, I thought there was some great cinematography of
 industry accompanied by some great dark atmospheric sounds.
 (was Badalamenti responsibe for that score like many other
 Lynch projects?)

 | I think so, but I've also heard Lynch has some involvement in the soundtracks of his films too (especially his earlier
 ones)

 i think it's just too independant looking for videostores

 | neither of those films are banned in the UK - eraserhead never was, and clockwork orange was retired by the director.

 | no, it's not Badalamenti. Badalamenti only entered first on Blue Velvet.
 
 the score for The Elephant Man is done by John Morris and is
 excellent.

 | "didnt he write a lot of julee cruise's lyrics too??"
 
 Lynch wrote all of Cruise's lyrics for her two albums
 Floating Into The Night and The Voice of Love, while
 Badalamenti did all the music.
 
 She was just a puppet ;)
