The world has lost a true visionary.
Nooooo
He was a fun part of the internet in the 2000s
If you know, you know
What the hell, this one caught me off guard. He was another one I thought would live forever.
I’m incredibly thankful that he put his mark on the world.
Incredibly happy I got season 3 of Twin Peaks.
You were a gem, David.
He had emphysema… they didn’t specifically connect it, but I would be shocked if the fires had no effect on his health. Ash causing strokes and heart failure are some of the specific things they warn about in the air quality warnings. There’s still ash everywhere because it hasn’t rained and they don’t expect it to for at least another week, probably longer. So every time a car goes by in the street it’s kicking up ash that people are breathing in.
In the 2020 Oregon fires, everything was coated in ash even though we were 20-30 miles away. I used a respirator while working outside and it didn’t take long for the filters to get all sooty. You’d come outside in the morning and your car would be covered in it as if we’d had fresh snowfall. I have no doubt that it caused problems for someone with emphysema.
Eraserhead is killer. It should be required viewing in schools.
This man truly enjoyed a good cup of coffee.
Damn fine cup of coffee.
This hit hard.
Damn this one is a bummer. I always found his work interesting at the very least.
That jump scare in Mulholland Drive gets me every time still.
May he have beautiful blue skies and golden sunshine, all along the way.
Dang
RIP legend. Lynch was an artist almost beyond comparison.
I’ve always been vaguely bewildered by people getting upset at the deaths of people they’d never met and didn’t know. Now I know better. I’m just glad our time on this planet coincided and I got to experience the work of a unique mind.
I didn’t see a single work of his that I didn’t walk away regretting that time spent. I know a lot of people fawn over his creations, but they weren’t for me.
Would’ve been interesting to see Mulholland drive as a television series, as a movie there was too much concept into too little space, but I honestly think he preferred it that way.
I watched Lost Highway which I found to be a confusing mess. To this day, I still have no idea what the hell it was about…
While Lost Highway is probably my least favorite Lynch film, it does have one of my favorite scenes of his
Completely agree. Everyone loves to credit lynch for twin peaks success but it was frost who would let lynch off the leash in season 1. But halfway through season 2, lynch gives you both barrels and it sucks.
He’s done some good things, but in my opinion, at the end of the day lynch is just another artist who doesn’t always tell a complete story and pretends like this inability is some sort of gift to the viewer.
He’s like the Papa Murphy’s of storytellers. Here’s the ingredients, now you figure it out. And you’re welcome.
I’d never heard of him until today. I looked him up on IMDB and the only thing I recognized was Twin Peaks. I tried watching that years ago but got a few episodes in and decided it wasn’t for me.
Still sad to lose someone that a lot of people respected and enjoyed.
