In the early part of this century, Lynch spent a lot of time putting together his website David Lynch.com. Embracing the internet and the opportunities his own website afforded him, Lynch would make his own shorts available via this medium as well as the weird sitcom Rabbits and animated series Dumbland. Lynch also branched out [...]
For his next trick David Lynch changed tack and shifted gears completely to tell the true story of Alvin Straight, a man who travelled across America to visit his estranged and ailing brother…on a lawnmower. The film was made independently based on a screenplay from Lynch’s frequent collaborator Mary Sweeney and even filmed chronologically along [...]
Perhaps the thing that David Lynch is best known for in the mainstream is the television series Twin Peaks which ran from summer 1990 until spring 1991. When it debuted the series was huge, I mean huge. It infected all areas of popular culture and was like the Lost of its day with people hotly [...]

Lynch then next had the opportunity to direct Return of the Jedi but famously [...]

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not averse to a bit of romance, but like most things, everything in moderation! So for [...]
With so many deals available online we’ve taken the liberty of picking through the bargain bin and pulling out the choicest offers we could find. This week we have an excellent sci-fi film, a famous graphic novel and the latest outing for one of the most popular gaming characters out there. If there’s a deal [...]
This sort of thing can rapidly turn into a vanity project, so I will have to watch my step a little. Laudable as it is to try to bring to people’s attention some splendid films which they may not have seen, it can swiftly deteriorate into, “oh gosh, you haven’t seen Cube: Zero, what kind [...]
Batman trilogy filmmaker Christopher Nolan made his mark on the 70mm IMAX screen in London on Wednesday with studio Warner Bros showing the first six minutes of the new Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises, out in July 2012.

Over the past few months, we here at HeyUGuys have offered up a number of arguments in defense of underestimated filmmakers, their flawed films and the trends that haunt Hollywood even to this day. Never, however, has a property been more deserving of a rebuttal than George Lucas’ Star Wars prequel trilogy – an alleged [...]
This year sees the release of yet another plethora of comic book adaptations, most recently topped by the arrival of X-Men: First Class in cinemas.

Picture the scene. Christmas Day, sometime after lunch. All the presents have been opened, the Christmas dinner has been eaten, the Queen’s speech has been, er, ignored, and now it’s time for the family to sit down on a day of yuletide joy and watch a film together. What should it be? Why of course! [...]
With the snow thick on the ground and the holiday season well and truly upon us you may be thinking of what movies to watch over Christmas. Do you go for old classics like White Christmas, one of the many takes on Dickens’ A Christmas Carol or one of the more modern movies that crop [...]

I was having a conversation with one of my HeyUGuys colleagues on Twitter recently about how I haven’t yet seen The Shawshank Redemption. After the shock of my confession subsided, he had mentioned how great it was going to be for me to experience it for the first time. We then talked about a couple [...]
