Appreciated but I'll wait til I can get the full experience of watching it on a 4K TV with a 4K player and with an uncompressed 4K disc (this will probably never happen.)
industrial symphony no 1 More Things That Happened Lynch (two)
basically IS#1 and then any of the bonus features from the Inland Empire dvd. Wish criterion would snag that one, especially if they can get the bonus features

more things that happened is definitely worth a watch, although i've never found a very good rip. last i checked it was up on youtube in full and about as good quality as any torrent i could find. it was included in the initial dvd release i guess but not the blu ray?
this tweet just made me laugh out loud, good timing on the bump
I can’t get enough of this
The UC Berkeley expert I spoke with described your approach to boarding -- posting things without knowing whether they’re true in order to juice engagement -- as “sociopathic.” Do you have a response to that?
I'm hiking in the Black Hills for a few days, and my 1% desire to go to Mt. Rushmore is based solely on the possibility of doing the faces of stone line (to myself)

I could be wrong but didn't generic do a bunch of side by side comparisons between the DVD release and high definition releases and there was little fundamental difference?
i think for IE the blu is brighter so there's a bit more detail cause of that, but it doesn't seem much higher res
IE is the one Lynch I just have digitally cause the DVD is OOP and at this point I'm not gonna buy that German blu or whatever so I'll just wait til criterion or shout gets it or whatever

So was Leland Palmer in control most of the time and BOB just came out at certain points or as it just BOB all day every day

feel like there's a pretty vast range of opinions there!
imo FWWM moves culpability more towards Leland, and this may be Lynch's view. I tend to be on the "accept the mystery" side, where I land on BOB being mostly in control (if we take the events/dialogue in leland's death scene as truth, this seems to be more the case in the text imo), but also can kinda accept the former view and BOB almost more as a symbol of all this trauma that gets passed down or whatever.

oh maybe i misread it. i think leland is running the ship for like, day-to-day stuff (i don't remember where but i feel like it's established that he [not bob] kills Jacques?)

I think BOB is there to feed, heightening the terrible impulses and the trauma that then feeds the impluses in a feedback loop of delicious corn Leland was groomed but is still a monster, I definitely don't like letting him off the hook
Slartisfgh is never mentioned in The Bible, but it is here, during one of the early battles, that Matthew spontaneously became liquid. Radiation trace: negligible
yeah i had changed my wording but didn't re-do this part, but i definitely don't view leaning towards BOB-in-control as letting leland off the hook or whatever, just that it's a weird supernatural situation! like if BOB is kinda more representative, then like, saying EVIL is in control would still make leland culpable.
but the haziness is part of why it works so well imo, and isn't just a copout "no one did it!" thing nor quite as boring as just "her dad did it!

I tend to go with "accept the mystery" too, like the source of evil isn't simple enough to explain without metaphors or contradictions, and Dale's failed attempt to reduce it to a solvable simple problem at the end of the series illustrates that. My tentative understanding is that Bob is a symbol of the trauma Leland suffered as a child and reenacted on Laura - his death speech indicates that he was abused as a child and I think that he saw the perpetrator as Bob? (it's been awhile since I watched any of this so the details are fuzzy). Leland in turn abused Laura but was able to see Leland in addition to Bob, is that related to her decision to die and not become another host/perpetrator? She believed she was lost/worthless as a result of the abuse and didn't see any other way out? I just don't think I'm comfortable coming down 100% on either side: Leland's definitely responsible in my mind for his actions; but he's also a victim both in the specific sense of the abuse he went through and more generally of the evil that permeates our like fallen society; and he's a soul deserving of the grace Cooper offers in his last moments?
This is kind of the central question of the series to me, and I find Cooper's treatment of the dying Leland incredibly moving even as I'm disgusted by Leland at the same time. Maybe that's Cooper's most enlightened/useful moment as a person/spirit; I forget what he goes through between there and the end of season 2 but does he ever get it as right again as he does in that scene?
leland's got a passenger who sometimes takes over, but when this happens it's still very much leland i accept the mystery

I figured that was BOB due to Jacoby smelling the burning oil when it happens, which Maddie also smells before BOB kills her.
I watched M by fritz Lang recently and was surprised how similar his depiction of a “mentally-ill” serial killer in Weimar Germany was to Lynch’s character of Bob, just reinterpreted on a basis of pseudo-spirituality...
