yeah.
i've seen the names 'jake gyllenhaall' and 'shia labouef' in the news, although i can't place the controversies, but i don't actually know who they are in terms of being able to reference their career (that is, i know them solely through the scandal-related media), and i otherwise can't place a single one of these people.
i'd do much better with a list of musicians.

when i say i tuned out from the medium after the x-files, i'm really not exaggerating.
there's maybe an argument that this was in some sense the climax of television, altogether. for me, it was the grand finale.
and, i remember it as clearly as i do because it's so very true. this was really the end - not just of the show, but of the idea of television, altogether.
there just wasn't anything left to watch after this.

i just have essentially no use for film as a medium. with all of the things i could be doing, i find it almost impossible to justify sitting down and wasting time trying to relate to fictional characters on a screen. i'm almost like a child, in that sense: i don't have the attention span. but, i think the kids are right, here, and the adults are stupid. the adults should go play outside...
i haven't seen a david lynch film in something like 20 years.
and, i actually don't remember the last time i sat down and watched a movie out of my own free will. i've been at bars, or parties, or emergency rooms, where there's something on, but, excluding that? it was probably around 2003 or 2004.
there's an entire generation (perhaps even two, given that i wasn't exactly a movie buff in the 90s, either) of film that i'm completely ignorant of. so, i don't have the context, and don't really have the interest to learn it.
i might still go. but, i know i'd have a better time in a room full of people that are legitimately interested in the music. and, i'm not entirely sure how long i'd last in front of a projection; i could see myself getting up and going over to phog.

i was considering hitting this as my end of the summer show tonight but, as before, i'm not the happiest about going outside today. and, i suspect i won't really like the crowd assembled there very much.
see, these are apparently written for david lynch shorts, meaning they're a kind of unauthorized rescoring, which strikes me as a pretty much debased form of art. like, he's literally touring with somebody else's backing tapes. lynch could probably sue him for everything he has, which i suspect is not much, if he wanted to.
on first contact, i just thought he was an electronic musician, and if you separate the music from the visuals, it does come off as relatively interesting on first listen - until you start to notice the heavy sampling from hit singles by van halen and seminal pieces by philip glass. so, he's not just recycling the backing tapes, he's recycling the music, too.
but, what that means is that i'm going to be walking into a room full of snobby film school grads, or film school grad wannabes which is even worse, and that's not exactly my idea of a good time. i mean, am i going to have to sit and watch the lynch shorts? is that the idea? this was more appealing to me when it was pure sound.
i'm going to eat soon and make a final choice, but as of right now i'm leaning on a skip. if i go, it's going to be more to check out the new bar than anything else.
