This is a link post 7 (More) Abandoned Wonders of America (W/Pics)
Imagine entire islands and vast building complexes eerily abandoned virtually in your own back yard. This seemingly far-fetched scenario might be more real than you realize. Complexes of more than 150 buildings and even small islands are located near the heart of major cities such as Houston and Washington DC. From insane asylums to military bases, hotels to theme parks and seminaries to silos here are 7 more abandoned wonders of the USA.

This is a normal post While I am a big Lynch fan
I mean I love "Lost Highway" for gods sake, I'm currently watching "Twin Peaks" on the lovely new DVD set etc... he is way off base here IMO. Remember the Father Ted bit with Ted explaining "Close... Very far away" to Dougal?

My TV is 20". It's crap. Having my iPod Touch a few inches from my eyes gives, in regards to size, a better experience than staring at my piece of shit TV on the other side of the room. Yet we don't hear Lynch bitching about shit televisions.

I would never buy a movie in an iPhone exclusive format, but clearly Mister Lynch, bless the mad old fucker, needs a lesson in scale and perception.

This is a normal post but...
Perspective dosnt take compression into account, hes referring to all of the tiny details you would miss. Set design, subtle glances, changes of background scenery, all very important when making a film.

It dosnt matter how close you hold it to your face

a. your gonna look like an eedjot with iphone goggles

b. quality diminishes the closer you hold it


of course im not having a go or anything, each to there own and all that, its just the arty film-maker in me being pedantic, i do apologise. id watch t.v programmes on one but never a film.

This is a normal post but
Its about immersion into an art form. Sure ytou can get away with watching anchorman or something but blade runner? schindlers list? your missing so much of the film at that size and compression and its no longer the vision the director had. Its like putting the mona lisa on a stamp and saying thats just as good as the original if you hold it fright up to your face :D
