Apparently crazy is a very subjective term

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 4 points 3 months ago

Pretty much.

Really? No dream scenario? Do you even Nicolas Cage?

(It's literally a film where the rest of the world dreams about his character.)

I feel like The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent should be somewhere on the list

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 6 points 3 months ago

No Drive Angry or prisoners of Ghosttland?

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 5 points 3 months ago

Renfield was so good ! It's definitely missing Dream scenario though

[–] skeld@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

No 8mm? Guess I'm not sure what crazy means.

[–] WamGams@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

Wild at Heart should be higher, based on the fact that it is Lynch at his peak, and its Cage's best performance.

I really do not understand why people love longlegs so much. I was mostly bored and having my immersion broken by the terrible SFX.
