https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Y7LpMraIncYou know in retrospect this scene really opens up more on rewatch. Considering the ending. Who really was the mystery man and how was he in both places at the same time? What was the implication of him only being where he's invited? At first I was thinking he's a vampire or something, but I feel like he's probably a more spiritual being. In defiance of the concept of space and time, it feels like he exists above the meta of the story being a weird sort of loop. I think he represents the malevolence of Fred after finding out about his wife's infidelity and that's why he says that Fred invited him, and why at the end when Fred's taking out Dick he's tagging along despite supposedly having been working for Dick in the Pete fiction. They
have met before at Fred's house. Where he loses himself in rage and kills his wife for her infidelity.
Although it only makes sense when you understand the motivation behind the killing why it happened. The Fred in the beginning is not the Fred that went through all that and found out about the cheating, or is he? How long has that loop been going on and where did it start? It seems like with the opening, it starts off just how it ends with the highway chase (though it's not shown to be the chase at the start).

Decided that I'll be streaming Eraserhead at 8pm EST, so about 4 hours from now.
Made a poll for it too
>>>/poll/5538 No.137572
Well, the poll says yukkuri, but I dunno if vern will be awake to turn on the kissu stream... So might be forced to go Giko if he's not back within the next hour.
For precaution's sake. We'll be initially gathering in the Underground Drunker's bar on

Kinda still processing it myself. Can definitely see why people say it's a film expressing Lynch's fears of parenthood. The radiator lady I'm still not sure about. Was she recommending heaven for him, or for the baby? Going by the way she would stomp on the sperms in a disgusted manner, I feel that she didn't represent something too sympathetic towards their plight. And maybe "heaven" didn't need to necessarily refer to the afterlife either, but rather a world free of that creature assigned to him as his child, which could be why he goes to 'heaven' right after killing it. Overall the tone of the movie conveyed an extreme sense of oppression in all avenues, so I think some sort of escape was a desire for Henry, as he seemed to see taking care of the baby as killing him.

Missed Eraserhead. I do not want to miss True Romance or Mulholland Drive.

>>137638And here's a reminder that it'll be in 5 hours!
Probably over on the anon bar in giko again because that seems like a nice atmosphere for lynch.

I watched MD maaany years ago, but my life experience was too shallow at the time to make sense of anything.
Would love to try again with more perspective, but I am a bit busy tonight.
I will come along for some of it anyways.

I joined but the quality was pretty bad and it kept lagskipping and I'm not hearing impaired and the layout of the giko windows is not great. Maybe I'll watch these on my own to join the discussion.

I kept getting zapped with sleepy spells during all the exciting bits and missed most of it. Lynched.
