Ironically, just last year my opinion of Lynch softened a bit, because he didn't butcher Dune nearly as badly as Villeneuve did. Now I'll never watch another one of that prick's movies, either.

He was just the wrong match for the material.
He’s made some truly bizarre but great stuff
Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Twins Peaks, Wild at Heart, lost highway, Mullholland Drive
And then his normal G rated movie The Straight Story was really great too.
He was one of a kind. RIP…
