wow! David Lynch= Crazy but Genius

[TinfishUK]

In this powerful movie Lynch mixes dreams with nightmares and murder with karmic consequences. These alternating themes are constantly shifting leaving only one NON-changing element - which is you - the viewer.

Inland Empire will expand your mental horizons and your pre-concieved concepts of "reality" - unless of course you block the entire process by adding your own mental ideas of how you think the movie SHOULD have been made.

Gotta be Lynch's best movie!

@wetfett

Very...VERY TRUE. So since that's the case, fuck Michael Bay. LA's the place where ideas and dreams come to die.

And Fear and Loathing was a good movie :P

@punkofdeath Its something to get lost in, and find your way out of the darkness. Maybe the roads you take do lead nowhere, and maybe they lead everywhere at once. The films physical settings put it on opposite sides of the globe, in two parallel worlds, with parallel characters acting out simultaneous parallel lives. There are many interpretations, and no real answer. You can make your own if you care enough to put some real thought into it.

@punkofdeath The movie works on the concept of dreams, how they seem familiar and alien at the same time. In a dream, you wouldn't care if the hamburglar leaped out of your fridge and started screaming at you in Vietnamese, simply because its a dream. But I digress-the point is that this film is not something to blink at. It isnt something to halfheartedly throw in the dvd player on a saturday night. Its a whale. Its a monolith. It functions more like a web than a yarn.

@punkofdeath Its not pointless, its a metaphor. The meaning of "Inland" and "Empire" as words are not to be taken literally. In the movie, the female character cannot distinguish between her movie self and her real self, because her mental state grows increasingly unstable. The title both references Hollywood, and the idea of a fragile mind as a result of it (that needs to be kept together, like an empire). The movie doesnt make sense, but this doesnt mean it is a bad movie.

@mundanewarrior its a pointless name like when an artist names a song after one line of lyrics that has nothing to do with the meaning intended of the song as a whole i just read the plot and its says "A mafia-like organization discusses one of their captives, remarking that the man claimed he was from "Inland Empire". looks like a vary odd movie that goes nowhere like fear and loathing in las vegas

[punkofdeath]

@mundanewarrior what the it that happends in cali??? to be kept track of?? what are you talking about "The mind is the Inland Empire"? how dose this make any sense? Inland means just what it says (in the land or not by the water) and an empire is a large powerful well.... anything i guess state, government, business, group of people. so what?? Deep inside a large powerful mind is what ur getting at? I have not seen the movie but that sounds far fetched to the meaning of the title.

[mundanewarrior]

@punkofdeath It happens (or at least part of it does) in California. Also, the term "Inland Empire" not only refers to a geological location, but something that needs to be kept track of and held together, like an empire or a mind. The mind is the Inland Empire, that fractures and splits into multiple perspectives, in the way this movie does.

wtf is this dose this movie have anything to do with the IE
