I saw Thor on the same day and it sucks that big "sets" are now just lifeless CGI rather than something tangible. Also saw Dune in Blu which might make a large difference.
2) Feeling that Fire Walk With Me is top tier of movies seems to be standard among Lynch fans. They go gaga for it over in The Lounge. I meant FWWM in that last sentence, not Dune, in case that wasn't clear.

Of course. I don't know if there's been a show since that was as huge a pop culture sensation, so it has mainstream appeal as well (for the first 7-18 episodes at least).
