[QUOTE="Ickles, post: 822, member: 8"] As Janus rolls out the new INLAND EMPIRE 4K restoration to theaters across the US ([URL="https://inlandempire.official.film/"]Buy Tickets | Inland Empire[/URL]) I thought having a thread open for folks to post their thoughts if they take in a screening and want to share might be a good idea. I caught a screening last night. The film itself is, of course, still amazing. I've lost count of the times I've seen the film itself (at least 20) but the new 4K does look and especially sound a bit better. I've honestly always loved the way the film looks, even though the "ugly" video quality turns some people off, but I think for the story and world Lynch is building in it the video quality works beautifully. The crowd in attendance on the other hand...I felt like I was witnessing a middle school field trip. There are some genuinely funny moments in the film that warrant laughter (Harry Dean Stanton's shtick about borrowing money, the Bucky light scene, etc.) but it was a case of a group of people not knowing how to feel vulnerable in a crowded theater so things that were truly fucked up and terrifying elicited uncomfortable laughter. To each their own, I suppose, but it was definitely distracting (sold out show) and kind of brought me out of the world a bit from time to time. Generally though I highly recommend seeing it if it's playing near you soon. I know some folks here are more Twin Peaks people and maybe less inclined to enjoy something as dense and "pure heroin Lynch" as IE but it's a tremendous artistic achievement and the restoration is great.
