A step, yes, but I'm not sure I'd call it a huge step. It's Lynch's Wizard of Oz and I find it equally endearing, bonkers, and terrifying.

There are some cool building blocks here, but halfway through it hasn't grabbed me. I can tell because I keep checking to see how much time is left.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Early Lynch > later Lynch, IMO.
