Since they directed their movies, fucktard

By the way, AWS isn't surreal enough to be directed by david lynch, but Mystery and Alfred Hitchcock made me chuckle

the experimental sensibilities of AWS are more in tune with Stan Brakage:

Mothlight - Stan Brakhage (1963) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jaezt80Sm1A#)

I was thinking on that one too, but they change stylistically movie to movie.

I would guess he's probably basing that on Tree of Life. Werner Herzog - Habitat would work for me.

LE - Danny Leiner

Heroin - Gregg Araki

I take back what I said now. When watching that I felt like it was an intro to an AWS video.

And I see Plan B as George Lucas, original films (team) was groundbreaking, now the star wars prequels etc (current team) not on the same level.
