I've never seen an iphone yet. Closest thing I have is flip video. Flip video has zero low end. I once played a bass guitar with one and couldn't here a thing. And I don't speak or comprehend German! My feeling is that a film seen in a dark theater takes a viewer into another dimension that David is well tuned to deliver. I like how pissed off he seems about the questions. Thanks for posting these.
This is a theory, if David Lynch created a film with the thought in mind, that it's final screening would be on an iphone, it wouldn't resemble his theatrical productions. It's be much more intimate. David and the viewer,... one on one movie. Much like the video art of the 60's/70's 80's not meant for mass consumption. Some one told me a while back that David is working with video cameras "only" for the next feature. If this is true one can see that he is not afraid to use new technology. Digital video technology "allegedly" is advanced enough and people are used to it to the point where it doesn't matter much whether a movie is made on film or video. Shoot on video and dump the pixels onto film. Screening on iphone is like looking at a Rembrant postage stamp. These postage stamps are not bad. You can't lick 'em, they're self adhesive. I seem to have lost the subject.
