I don't quit watching movie's halfway through very often, but then again I don't fall asleep in the middle of movies very often. I cancelled plans with friends to watch this in hopes that it would be good. After about the first hour of this no sense making boredom on film I fell asleep. Now I've wasted the evening and am pissed. |

Lost Highway was better but I mean, didn't you wake up for the lesbians? |

humm |

i quite liked this movie. you gotta watch it at least twice, let alone once to thoroughly enjoy it. well, i had to anyway. |
||||||||

you're stupid |
||||||||

i'm only fond of the score playing at the end of the film. other than that, on a scale of 1-10, i give it SHIT. however, lesbians are good. and a crying woman fingering herself is worth a laugh. |

lol the trick is to try and figure out which part is a dream, and sometimes there are dreams IN dreams. that is the only way to sort it ouy. Watch it with a friend, and try to figure out your own ending. It's a lot of fun that way, otherwise, yeah, you just get frustrated. |

"If lesbian sex is the only thing that makes me watch a David Lynch movie, i'd rather watch porn" - Junktion '03 |

Honestly, everyone on this fucking page is an idiot except BlatantEcho, and tibbar. Anyone into art, I don't care what form, should at least give this movie a chance. Music, storyline, characters interacting with eachother, camera work. All of it is styled in an arty way. You must remember that it was originally going to be a television show but got canned half way so of course there will be some random shit in there. It sucks that in this day in age nobody wants to think about anything. They just want everything handed to them. All you have to do is use your brain every once and a while. If you want something to watch and waste your time one Saturday night go and watch Legally Blonde. At least you can jack off over Reese Witherspoon. |

What type of porn do you watch? |

oh please, we expressed our opinions, so now it makes us idiots? just because it's "art" doesn't mean it can't be shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hallooooooo it's not because I don't like the way the movie is shot or how Lynch does these movies...they're just not me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
All I'm saying is that Lynch is a player. Always has been, always will be. You gotta give him some respect as an artist no matter if you or the rest of the world might think that it is shit. True, I myself could shit on a plate and call it "art" in this day in age, however if having a huge cult following and tons of awards is not a good true artist, you can go get a big black vibrator and shove it in my ass because I'm obviously the faggot here. |

about david lynch: http://maddox.xmission.com/david_lynch.html (no i dont know the damn link thingy, i'm sure someone here can make one for me though) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no matter how many times i read it, i still think to myself "man, im so glad that i can enjoy this stuff". i mean seriously, is "the matrix" or "x-men" as deep as some people wanna get? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm more into stuff like Darren Aronofsky's work. That's deep for me... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aranofsky is good.... i wont deny that. and im dying to see him do this batman movie, if it ever actually happens. me personally, i just FEEl lynch... i know what he's trying to say because i've thought of the same things, i think i see things a similar way. it just clicks with me. plus, the fact that SO many people hate his stuff is just annoying, and its the same with kubricks stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like mullholland drive but its not the only type of movie i watch personally i like lynch because it makes you think more. the plot isnt force fed and the imagery and atmosphere brings it along quite nicely. i like mindless comedic films and action films. but i think its lame to limit yourself only to those. yeah lynch just sort of clicks with me too. just feels right when watching it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
then please explain to me what the fuck the flipmode in the middle of Mulholland means??? And what about that ugly guys behind the fastfood-joint? To me it's like he always try's to make a "there's a devil that can control everything"-connection in every movie... Please explain your point of view, cuz I would actually be happy if I understood these movies |
||||||||
|

Mulholland Dr is a masterpiece. If you understood it at all, I doubt you would be bored. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But I wasnt bored, untill that fucked up silence-circus, and that fucked up flipmode. I understood everything untill then. And then it was like "what the fuck is this??" ...I just need someone to explain, then I promise I will go home and watch it again and understand. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this movie had classic Lynch humor - that keeps me going... but my favorite element is when the blond girl starts to actually act at the audition much better than so far into the movie and then carries it out for the rest of said movie I should watch all of Twin Peaks again... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IMHO Mulholland Drive is one of the best films to be released from hollywood in a looong time. The thing is, this film is not about plot, it's about atmosphere and suspense. I thoroughly enjoyed the film even if I didn't understand fuck all about what was going on. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what was the very first show after the beginning? its a short shot, and alot of people think its meaningless. think about it again. think about the character roles and how the diner plays into it. the waitress diane, betty, dude... they even explain the thrust of the film at winkies. you yourself even said it. the lesbianinsm in this film has been SO blown out of porportion that it seems no one understands the idea behind it. character reversal, dude. rita becomes betty. she steals betty's life. but even all of this is imaginary. this is concocted in her mind. "time to wake up, pretty girl" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there is no orchestra.... there is no conspiracy against betty... it is all a dream. there are 2 kinds of dreams: sureal subconscious fears and goals living out in a fake life, and a real world based upon thos things. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but....then the "plot" is not real...and I feel like I have got 2 hours of my life stolen... I NEED a plot.... but hey, the movie was a beauty and a lot of people likes it, so fuck it. I can't digest it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
damn. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean by a plot? like Terminator 3 - w/ the Terminatrix that was enuff plot to choke a louse |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the plot is that its a REAL story, in the sense that it happens in a less dramatic way in most peoples lives. the plot? what, you need a villian to identify? in life, there really IS someone behind that dumpster, though most are too sceptical to imagine that when they peer into the dark, that something looks back. THERE is your plot. good vs evil. same as every other lynch film. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is the crux by which all modern (i use that loosely) literature and film is based. because it is the most obvious and real idea there is: the struggle for happiness. the struggle to find love. the struggle to win over forces that suppress us. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the thing that makes this movie work is that it is a WORST CASE SCENARIO. and hollywood HATES that with a passion. yet this movie is aBOUT hollywood, as a personaification of what is eveil in humanity. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I must give Lynch some credit for one thing though; He made me feel like waking up after a dream that turned into nightmare, where you want to know what happened in the good part of the dream. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Lynch is one of the greats - like Kubrik fuck it Blue Velver ruled. Twin Peakers ruled. Lost Highway had Richard Pryor in it. that shits ruled/// |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what i can respect about the movie: the score the film itself, as in what it was shot on, the black plastic frames that recorded everything. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
then he suceeded in making you feel what those characters were feeling, to some degree. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Dude...i'm pretty much easy to do that... After I saw Memento I had trouble remembering... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dude the pink paint in the jewelry! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahahahaha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
After falling asleep to this I'd be kept awake pondering the fact that I need my art spoon-fed. |
||||||||

Junktion: that "silence-circus and that fucked up flipmode" is where most of the answers are... as much as I hate doing this, read these, then see the film again: http://dir.salon.com/ent/movies/feature/2001/10/23/mulholla nd_drive_analysis/index.html http://dir.salon.com/ent/movies/feature/2001/11/07/mulholla nd_dream/index.html |

tibbar knows where its at :) You sound like me trying to explain to my friends. My favorite short answer: MD is about rejection and subjective reality. |
||||||||

|

i saw it like 5 times. first time i thought it was really shitty compared to lost highway, but then i saw it a second time, it was better, and i also saw a documentary on the secret meanings of some parts of the movie... now i see it as a very good movie thats it the best scene is the guy scared of the strange man hidden behind the fast food |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The MC has just told us "its all a recording", and when the woman comes onstage and starts singing her heart out, we STILL believe it's real... until she passes out and the recording continues. How beautifully fucking demonstrated. Amazing what we can sell ourselves on when we want to believe. |

but i hate the concept... |

love it! best film in ages... |
