Part II: Short dictionary of anecdotes, signs and wonders
Brechtian in nature and objectives, the second part of Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn is a 26-minute encyclopedia of 70 seemingly haphazardly selected, but alphabetically organized, terms, ideas and events ("anecdotes, signs and wonders"), particularly such pertaining to Romanian history and contemporary Romanian politics. All of them In the opinion of film critic Martin Tsai, Jude's technique here resembles the use of title cards by Gaspar Noé in his 1998 art film I Stand Alone, and challenges dictionary definitions and the status quo alike. Seemingly unconnected, many of these ideas and events – both implicitly and explicitly – are called upon (and even come to the fore) in the film's third part.

Reception
In the statement of the jury of the 71st Berlinale – composed of six previous winners of the Golden Bear (Ildikó Enyedi (Hungary), Nadav Lapid (Israel), Adina Pintilie (Romania), Mohammad Rasoulof (Iran), Gianfranco Rosi (Italy) and Jasmila Žbanić (Bosnia and Herzegovina)) – Bad Luck Banging, or Loony Porn was judged to be "an elaborated film, as well as a wild one, clever and childish, geometrical and vibrant, imprecise in the best way [...one that] attacks the spectator, evokes disagreement, but leaves no one with a safety distance." The jury also commended the film's ability to simultaneously capture on screen "the values and the raw flesh of our present moment in time" and provoke them, by slapping it, by challenging it to a duel. And while doing that, it also challenges this present moment in cinema, shaking, with the same camera movement, our social and our cinematic conventions.
