No Troma film directed by Lloyd Kaufman has ever or will ever be directed in DV. He hates it. A lot of Japanese films are shot on DV and look great. Inland Empire, for whatever artistic merits it has, looks pretty .. soap operaish.. for a lot of it. Doesn't really effect the movie itself,I just hate that look. And yeah I did !@#$%!, howdjaknow? |

i looked at the time between your last 2 posts in this thread.
anyway not all digital video is created equal. the one called DV" is an SD format with low bandwidth (25Mbps or about 13GB/h) and about 5:1 compression, it's ok for documentaries and guerrilla filmmaking but it's bad quality for blowing up in a big screen. HDV is a gimmicky shit kind of format that creates "high def" images (highly compressed) at a similar bandwidth- to me, it's a fucked up codec. anyway, things get nicer & nicer as you move up the money chain, and there's raw uncompressed high definition video shot with cinema lenses these days, not bad at all. if you wanna see great cinematography shot in video, check out "before the devil knows you're dead". holy fuck. it's good. |

Video in itself isn't a bad look, but Lynch's look of Inland Empire sucks. The actual film is a pretty good little mess, but god.. I dunno... the more soap opera-looking shitty scenes are awful. I dunno what camera he used, but...

It's pretty decent for the most part. Probably a 6/10

I think it had at least an hour and a half of GREAT stuff in it. And way more than that that's bullshit -- and it was originally an extra hour long! His worst film ever (not counting Dune since he doesn't even acknowledge it anymore).

I dnt know why I thought Lloyd used DV recently. I thought in one of his 2 books he mentioned how they were really affordable. I read them both like 5 years ago, though so it's been a while.
I know Troma has put out DV-shot releases, though. Not meaning in-house films. |

No it doesn't. But it doesn't suck either. It's definitely the worst film in Lynch's filmography, but that's not his fault. He needed the film to be 2 films, and he couldn't do that so it got all cut up and fucked up. |

it still rules. for it's time it was extremely odd and weird and crazy.
but I hate most Lynch films, finding them lacking in story, and overwhelmed by his "dreamlogic" bullshit.

I love Dune. I love the book and the movie.
The Sci-Fi channel TV show sucked.

I dont know why, but when I watched Ichi I didnt like it much.
I was kind of distracted, but from what I got it wasnt that radical or shocking and it was kind of confusing. It just didn't live up tot he hype for me. I probably need to give it a better, honest watch though.
