Yeah I mean, I can tell obviously they weren't going for humor, but the randomness and absurdity of the mouth moving as it floated away just hit me right on the funnybone.

How did you feel about FWWM and Lynch's later work like Inland Empire and Muholland Drive?

That's your answer.

'Funny' as in: laughably lovely like all of the SFX in this new season as Lynch tries to spend as little as possible of the networks money on the actual show so he can pocket the rest for his retirement.

"But no, it's supposed to look like utter poo poo because Lynch is a genius because other people say he is and i'm a complete loving moron. Who wants to hear my fanfic about what the show is really about?" said most TVIV Goons.

Windom Earle and Dick Tremayne are two of my favourite characters from Season 2. They're both fun and absolutely steal any scene they're in.

I think my favorite part of Dick Tremayne is that instead of a bunch of episodes about him and Andy being romantic rivals, they go off on a whole separate adventure to find out if Little Nicky is the devil.

These dentures won't stop me from tearing out jugulars in Thunderdome.



Watching the original series again and noticed something interesting: in episode 16, when Cooper is interrogating Mike, he says that when he and Bob were killing together, they formed a "golden circle" of appetite and satisfaction.

Not sure if that has anything to do with the golden circle we see in the new episodes or if it's just a coincidence, but I figured I'd mention it.

He sounds like someone who, against their expectations, never became nearly as financially successful or even stable as they expected when they were younger and resents anyone who is. Legit sorry, spuds. Being financially insecure is stressful as hell.

Just for some clarity here, do you at least like Blue Velvet? On the attempt to roast the experimental surreal stuff, I'll just say it's not true to say his fans will like anything. I can't say I'll see Inland Empire a second time (his fully experimental unscripted movie). But overall he's my favorite filmmaker.

Do you like Cronenberg? How about Repo Man or River's Edge? What's the most off-kilter movie or TV that you do enjoy?

Has anyone brought up the possibility that BoB might be behind the Hastings murder? Him saying that he dreamed being there but wasn't actually there sounds a lot like Leland's behavior. Plus, it was a very bizarre crime scene... one that was definitely intended to send some message, like letters under fingernails.

I think with a bit of can do attitude, we can get this guy into Lynch. Finer arts posters having a rock talk. He ain't heavy. He's my brother.

But yeah, I don't get the idea that a Lynch fan would like anything he makes. But it's a common idea for detractors, the main page IMDb review for Inland Empire says something about 3 hours of traffic cam footage saying A David Lynch Film would get good reviews. I just don't think that's true, don't get that approach.

But, I don't like some Kurosawa movies, thought Ran was boring, everybody has different takes on things. I don't get the vehement anti-Lynch thing though, I'm just curious how much Lynch they've tried. And this kind of genre in general.

/Micheal Cera intentionally performs an absolutely dogshit piece of acting for the gently caress of it because he showed up on set that day and agreed not be paid because he would get to be in the Twin Peaks revival and the guy in charge doesn't give a gently caress one way or the other.

We get the fact you don't like the show. Your crusade against us "rubes with the wrong opinions" won't get you anywhere, so why don't you gently caress off over to the GBS thread where hating poo poo is par for the course?

That was the very first thing that crossed my mind. He's supposedly an upstanding, well-respected member of the community just like Leland, too. But then his wife said they were having an affair, so I have no idea what to believe anymore.

I am offended on Michael's behalf, highly offended, but we can agree Billy Zane is often quite entertaining. It would be a hoot if that character returned, I don't remember him being on the cast list. Oddly enough both Matthew Lilard and Billy Zane gave very funny performances in Uwe Boll movies.

Saw an interesting theory on Reddit that Wally might be a paid actor by Truman to help Lucy and Andy cope with the fact their son died years ago. Her obsession with the thermostat and the fact she was terrified by Truman walking in with the cellphone indicates she's kinda "stuck" in the past because of the trauma, and Wally's decision to let them make the room a study was part of some sort of coping method. Probably complete bullshit, but this show lends itself well to wild speculation.

Fake edit: would also possibly explain why the family photo had the awkwardly prominent faces pasted to it.
