Well, so much for that rumor!

 

Facts can be so misleading, where rumors, true or false, are often revealing!

 

I'm experiencing rumor mill burnout. First a year (or more?) of Wisteria/Unrecorded Night posts that led to nothing, now this (though the lack of a Q&A post press-conference today was intriguing as questions around Lynch would have been asked). This could still get announced as a late addition but if he has a feature (which I think is absolutely possible that he shot one on the quiet; Lost Highway's first act was filmed in one of his three LA places and he managed to shoot INLAND EMPIRE on the quiet for the longest time) I now think it more likely that it goes to Venice, especially if it was funded by Netflix. Lynch sounded a bit irritated when he denied the feature rumour again in his weather report. I would actually welcome it if as a result, him and Sabrina tell the entire team and cast to shut the fuck up (ditto the Wisteria stuff) and the official announcement of any new film or show is the first anyone outside of that team hears about it.
