>/tv/ tells you a movie is good
>it's not
Fucking hell this is the most tedious movie I've ever watched. Explain why I should have liked this.
For context I like Lynch and think Elephant Man, Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive are all very good films, but I dislike Eraserhead. Everything else in his catalogue ranges from ok to good.

If you enjoyed Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive, Inland Empire should have been right up your alley because of the similar dream/nightmare experience, sorry that you didn't like it.
I don't really see why didn't you like it because I loved Inland Empire for almost all the same reasons I loved Lost Highway/Mulholland Drive.
The only difference is Inland Empire had a smaller budget, but it's 110% David Lynch. An actual film experience.

so Dune is ok but you didn't like Eraserhead or Inland Empire, you fucking troll? Fuck off
I've liked everything Lynch has done so far except Mulholland Drive, Inland Empire, and his music. Also his wacky TM lectures and "methods"

Actually forgot about Dune, that would actually be his worst. I just try to forget it exists.
If I had to rate them Dune would be a 2/10, Eraserhead and Inland Empire would be 4/10

This is what I was expecting and I actually enjoyed the first half or so quite a bit. It was about 10 minutes after the "dream sequence" portion that starts when she's in bed with Justin Theroux that I started to feel the tedium and I never rally got back into it.
I didn't get the plot at all outside of the basics, so maybe that's my fault for not paying attention enough? Though I feel like that isn't too important since this obviously isn't a traditional narrative.

IE was awesome for tying in Rabbits, but honestly I'd rather watch Rabbits than IE

Nope, all of Lynch films are more like experiences, not puzzles with singular universal answers which you have to put together in a certain kind of way to "get" them.
You could see the entirety of Inland Empire like a dream, there is no clear starting point, you just get thrown into other scenes and places just like in dreams. I
I would even say you have to not "pay attention" in a manual overanalyzing sense and just experience it.
You didn't like it or get anyting from it and that's okay, but that alone doesn't make the film bad, you just didn't connect with it.

Dune is just a bunch of faceless characters existing in an endless flurry of exposition that I don't care about. Some of the set design is nice but that movie is the farthest thing from fun.

This is what I figured since I got the same thing out of Lost Highway and to a lesser extent Mulholland Drive

Even Lynch himself thinks that his Dune is a total failure:
