My first film was Bottoms and my last film was Love Me Tomorrow lmao. I fell hard into Spider-Man this year so my top actor was Mahershala Ali bc I watched Spider-Verse like 5 times and my top director was Yorgos Lanthimos even tho I don't even like his movies that much 😭

Ur 1 icelandic film being Smoke Sauna Sisterhood is so funny bc it's actually about Estonian women

Mulholland Drive is hands down one of my top 5 favorite movies of all time.

sorry to bother you is not obscure!!!

Joker 2 gets wayyyyy toooo much hate. It reminds me a lot of Fight Club 2. A great critique on the first movie and all the stuff that people misunderstood about it

My all time favorite director, his passing is such a big loss for humanity. I just released a tribute video to David Lynch on my channel 😢💔 I can’t wait to read Room to Dream.

This is sick I would love to see this weekly

Wow northerlions reach is far and wide I would have never expected you to watch him 😂

I've been waiting for this

nooo you cant skip dune, its a masterpiece.

sorry but the Sicario sunset shot is the shot of the decade.

Love this new series!

Give us more of this I love it

Your rating is 1055… that’s bad lol this isn’t your game

please do more of this

RDJ is in chef?

Excellent!!! Beautiful words. I've long wanted to meet the Great Man, myself. *We love you and thank you, David Lynch.* 🙏🏾💓

"I was very late to the game on both David Lynch and film in general... It wasn't until film school that I actually dove in and got familiar [with Lynch]" Are you suggesting that (presumably) early-20s is "late" to watching David Lynch? As if most people are going through Lynch's filmography at age 15? Most of the *grown adults* I know are unfamiliar with David Lynch! No offense but this was such a "film school" thing to say lol

As far as any of his films can even be considered so, and I ask this as someone who’s only seen a few, wouldn’t “The Elephant Man” be considered more accessible than “Blue Velvet”?

I’ve found my people at the intersection of Karsten and NL.

If there's a heaven or some form of an afterlife I would really love to have a chat with him, me and a very long list of fans. This is one of those times the death of someone you didn't know touches you like you knew them for a lifetime. Really thought I'd see him make at least one more movie after Twin Peaks: The Return or just continue Twin Peaks or just another series, was thinking if I just live long enough he'll eventually work on something new but that's not gonna happen now, it kinda feels like a dream, like he was incapable of dying.

Twin Peaks had such an impact on me at 13 years of age. The art was that he scared the life out of. me yet compelled me to warch more. He created his work for the watcher to draw their own conclusions. He let the audience apply meaning to the nothingness that meant something different to every one of them. Whatever this world was or is, he was in it.

Oh hell yeah, I could watch hours of this

My heart sank when I saw this video pop up. Talk about a creative. His work has always been so inspiring to me. He made media that allowed me to sit and really think about it.

I've always said the world is david lynchs dream, and we're just living in it. Now that he's gone, i know that's not true, and it hurts.

David Lynch passing is not what I expected in 2025 😢

Hereditary IS the most scary movie of them all.

“There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high - powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.” -Hunter Thompson R.I.P David Lynch

Agree on that 4 hour Twin Peaks rant... It's interesting to be so invested in a project but also at the same time not understand the point of the work. Eraserhead, Fire Walk with Me and The Return is his trifecta, they're the most uncompromising while also having a strange beauty.

I was having my own David Lynch discovery moment just one day before his death, I watched Rabbits on yt, I recall reading some articles about him wanting to create a movie but not finding the funding which made me so sad, how could someone as big as him not find proper funding for his art? the news of his death made this even more heartbreaking. RIP

Working with David Lynch on the tv series of Twin Peaks 1989 was amazing. I have learned so much in such a short time on the first season. Working on the first season of Twin Peaks was an extraordinary experience. The entire season was shot in a warehouse in Van Nuys, CA. All the sets were built and pre-lit right there in the warehouse. The first time I walked through those sets, it felt like walking through the mind of David Lynch himself. I worked as the first assistant cameraman on Twin Peaks, and the series was shot on 35mm film. The cinematographer, Frank Byers, was someone who I had worked with before and he was wonderful to work with. We used an ARRI 35 BL camera and added Coral filters to the front of the lens to create a warm tone. Nearly every shot had some sort of camera movement, which added to the cinematic quality of the series. The entire crew was deeply engaged with the storyline. The strange situations, like Nadine’s obsession with cotton balls and her silent curtain invention, or Kyle MacLachlan’s cowlick after waking up, were bizarre yet so uniquely Twin Peaks. "Often, it was difficult to hold back your laughter." The characters and personalities were eccentric and surreal. Working with Ray Wise was incredible; he brought so much depth to the set. Years later, we reunited on another project and reminisced about the wonderful times we had working on Twin Peaks. Kyle MacLachlan was equally fantastic-an exceptionally kind and professional person to work with. From early on, the crew sensed this show was going to be unlike anything on television at that time. Its look and feel were more like a feature film than a TV series. During breaks, we’d joke about the show’s quirky lines, like, “A damn fine cup of coffee” or “There’s a fish in the percolator.” The crew knew when David would arrive on the set - the first assistant director would announce, “Mr. Lynch is on the set!” David Lynch was a joy to work with. Each episode was shot over seven days: five days for interiors and two for exterior scenes. At the end of the season, every crew member received a special jacket to commemorate our work. I even received a phone call from a fan offering $1,000 for my jacket-but I’ve held onto it. After the episodes aired, some of us crew members gathered to watch them together, sharing memories and marveling at the show’s impact. If you’d like to see some behind-the-scenes images, feel free to visit my website, Workshop Lighting. In the Hollywood section, you’ll find them at the bottom of the page. Unfortunately, I can’t share a direct link here, but there it ends in .com.

You’re insufferable, our guy would puke if he saw this

I've seen just about all his work, even though I was never particularly a fan (agree on Straight Story - though nothing special (in fact, its his most conventional movie), but surprisingly at least pleasant - I found it one of his most tolerable efforts). First movie of his I saw was Blue Velvet (think I watched it first when I was 13). Still do not much like it, but I love Dennis Hopper's unhinged monologue. Really, his only two truly great ones were Eraserhead and Elephant Man. Still, even though I basically hated the rest of his movies, he himself always seemed pretty cool. It's feels super weird that he's dead. 😐

Tennessee Williams wrote that the artist dies two deaths: the artist and his art. This is not entirely true and the art will live long after the person has passed away. This will certainly be true in the case of David Lynch. He was an iconoclastic figure in whatever he did. I first read about Eraserhead in the first volume of Cult Movies by Danny Peary and then a longer segment in Midnight Movies by Stuart Samuels but at the time these films were not readily available. I finally saw Eraserhead on a poor quality VHS copy I rented at a local video store. It wasn't the best format for such a dark film. It was only decades later when he offered the film on his own website that I got to see it properly and was seeing all the little details he spent to bring thi s world to life. It blew my mind and I eagerly awaited any new project. I was swept away by the Twin Peaks phenomenon and the first season was amazing, but sadly the second was very hit and miss. But I have to be honest and the appeal started to fade from Wild At Heart onwards, with the exception being the stunningly beautiful Straight Story. I still regret missing a lecture he gave on creativity and meditation in New Haven, Connecticut. It would have a once-in-a-lifetime experience to see him in person. Martin Short does a hilarious impression of him in the film Jiminy Glick in Lalaland. Not perfect but pretty damn close.

I can’t believe you passed up the opportunity to play Greenberg off Ben Stiller

Candy is a nice obscure Heath Ledger to keep in your pocket

Fire Walk With Me changed me and my perception of horror. Nothing will be the same without him.

Too fun to watch omg

This is Fortnite for cinephiles. Be careful about gamifying your hobby (of course for KZbinrs like Karsten and NL this is a job that requires content so they’ll love this regardless). Just remember to keep enjoying movies and not use Letterboxd like a study guide.

I wonder if there is any pro wrestling fans here? Because I always thought Bray Wyatt was heavily inspired by this man they almost had a similar creative spirit. Rest in peace both legends.

bro lost on Iron Man

The amount of media attention around David's death has been nothing short of amazing to me. It was truly moving to hear the intro to Twin Peaks on national radio here in Sweden yesternight, I'm sure everyone tuning in experienced yet another surreal Lynch moment right there and then. Thanks for everything David, we miss you

"they should spread the wealth at awards shows for different shows and movies, unless it's a show or movie that i love the most"

shoutout NL baby!

You did not mention "The Substance"

I only just watched Blue velvet this last Saturday, and it was my first lynch film. I just started getting into him, and yesterday when it happened, I was planning and did watch the Twin Peaks pilot.

Watched Inland Empire for the first time Wednesday night, then woke up the next day to the news which was a surreal but fitting feeling. There will never be another David Lynch. I'm so grateful for everything he's given us.

Close enough, welcome back Ryan

Rest in Peace David Lynch. I loved his film called Rabbits.God Bless.
