Watch Eraserhead if you haven't already, that movie screwed up with my brain a bit.

Rewatched this classic, one of the best dog movies ever for sure:

 

Eraserhead is awesome. I was a big fan of Lynch who had somehow skipped over Twin Peaks. Think I watched a few minutes as a teenager and found it depressing. I also dismissed Mulholland Drive as a youngster, might have just been stupid, now I need to go back and watch that one as well. 

SO excited to begin Season 3. So glad it's happening.

Watched Lynch's Dune today. I think I should have read the book first?

Yes! I haven't seen the movie yet but Dune is much more than a simple sci-fi story set in a desert planet... in a way it's a step by step guide on how to awaken our own innate psychic powers. It's a looong haul but totally worth it!

Just watched it. Found the plot kind of weird but was able to follow it. Some of the sets were cool. Overall not a great film but lots of cool ideas and parts.

I'd agree with this. Some of the effects were corny as fuck but that seems pretty much a lynch staple :D

Just watched Fire Walk With Me, ok, I think Lynch is a genius

Well when you watch other stuff like Mulholland Drive you might just scratch your head :/

Oh this is on my list! Put it just because of the name and synopsis… gotta say the weird trailer is a bit off-putting ?

watched Despicable Me 3 last week and also The Goonies for the first time – was expecting a bit more from the latter as its such a famous movie. Now You See Me 2 was a sequence of nonsense last night, bah. Wish my gf wasn't suffering the hay fever and we played Lego Batman instead

Damn right it is. Still love it as an adult too! 

Oh hell yeah. I just meant it as being a great adventure with kids in the lead :)

I watched it 2 years ago for it's 30th year anniversary. Still hasn't lost any of it's charm. Timeless classic.

Not saying I didn't like it @Sprony @Beck, just that I was expecting a bit more… I guess pacing, more adventure, because all the hype I got about it.

I guess my rationale got the best of it and found a bit jarring the portrayal of a North American town with a Spanish treasure ship (when there were no Spanish in those areas).

Dunno if the mastering for digital streaming wasn't great but I didn't understand who left the hints for the treasure as well.

Is definitely a great kids adventure movie, still probably enjoyable for kids today and their parents :)
