i am confused

So I just rewatched INLAND EMPIRE via netflix streaming, and one of the key phrases I noted in my lj entry after watching it in the theater the first time -- "you can lead a horse to the well but you can't make it drink" -- was nowhere to be found. Did I just imagine it? Or did Lynch edit the movie before it was released on DVD? Maybe he thought

ROTFL!! You have no idea how much I'm laughing right now. One, Nin and I just had a long fic related Tony discussion, and two, I'm remembering how I moaned about her making me go see another comic book movie. Oh, if I only knew. Also related, someone recced my very first IM fic a few days back, and I was reading the comments on that first, and you and me are denying we might actually be hooked [g]

I'll stop now.

ahahha. I remember insisting this wasn't going to be a thing. Uh-uh.

heh.

AHAHAHAHAHA. AHAHAHAHAH. WEIRD ROBOTIC VOICE. AND WITTY QUIPS. AND IRAQI INSURGENTS.

ilu, Amy. And yeah, my expectations for the Iron Man movie! Pretty much non-existent.

[amonitrate]

That was the most amazing part of the experience: having such low expectations and being completely mind-blown.

All the way back when you were normal, hey?

See, this is why knowing the future is A Bad Idea. Because otherwise, if we knew now what we will know then, we're run screaming for the hills and never be seen again

What you say about David Lynch's films - maybe he's working with expressing how we really remember/experience things, rather than how books/movies portray it, because in reality humans don't have a neat linear experience

Yep! I started talking about this very thing in my most recent LJ entry:)
