Rageaholic Monkey posted:I plan on marathoning the entire season once it gets released on Blu-Ray like I did with 1 and 2. It'll be interesting to see how difficult all the tons of information/little quirks and throwaway lines will be to keep track of at a rapid-fire pace like that, even if I'm already familiar with all of it. How much are you willing to bet that Lynch messed around with LSD before he became a family man?

Hahahahaha Jesus Christ, David Lynch's own father told him he should never have children after David showed him some of his art/science projects he was working on in his basement and his dad thought he was insane and should probably be institutionalized. David Lynch now has 4 children.

Now that we're seeing all these other lodge creatures and Mother, I wonder if we'll ever find out what Mike saw that he describes as "the face of God" before he parted ways with Bob and cut off The Arm.

Or they could be the exact same character. Reading into credits is really weird to may, I'd take it all with a grain of salt.

Lanz posted:Catching back up on the thread has me thinking about the scenes with Frank and his wife again. Before the reveal about their son's suicide, they obviously come across as a cliched "husband who's just putting up with a stereotypical nagging wife" type deal. However, introducing the knowledge of the suicide, I wonder if that changes the reading? Yeah, I went back and watched the earlier scene and got a similar impression. The first time I saw it (the first scene with Truman and Doris) I thought he was just dealing with someone who wasn't reasonable. I've known people like that, and I thought he was just being stoic. But after the explanation about their son, it puts a whole new understanding about their relationship. I sort of feel like the exchange between the swtichboard cop and Chad is aimed at the viewer. Like, did you, as an audience, think she was being ridiculous? Did you consider there was some trauma? Well there was. How do you feel about how you viewed her the first time? I felt bad.

The important part is not making you feel bad for your lack of information about the first time you viewed their interactions, it's the new light that is shed on their interactions and how it tints your view of it in hindsight- and thus, how you react to finding the information out. Chad reacts in the wrong way. Never ever identify with Chad. edit: I honestly don't really get what the point of Chad as a character is. He's like the one element of the show so far that has stuck out as really hokey and cliche.

Chad turns out to be on the take for Red. He's out doin' some drug deal in the woods, wearing something that helps obscure who he is, when one of Bobby's cameras picks him up. Bobby goes out to investigate, Chad draws on him, Bobby draws again and Chad's down before he can level the gun. Bobby looks around flabbergasted, realizing it's the same clearing he shot where he Cliff back in '89. Lanz fucked around with this message at 06:46 on Jul 3, 2017 |

One thing I liked about the original Twin Peaks is that there wasn't a stereotypical "all of this is bullshit harUMPH im just such a wet blanket on all the good times you characters are having" character. And I'm glad Chad exists in some strange way so that I can dislike him, but I also wish he did not. edit: vvvv I too would like Chad to get shot!

Just finished episode 6. Not sure I want to bother with the rest of this series. Is there a plot at this point? Does anything of interest happen? The kid getting run over by the truck and the 10 minutes of the entire town acting sad. What the gently caress? Everything about Doug E. Him scribbling and circling for 10 minutes. What the gently caress? Why am I subjecting myself to this poo poo. I feel like everyone who claims to enjoy Lynch's "art" is part of a giant inside joke where the punchline is that they don't actually watch what lynch puts out, they just get a laugh at the reactions of anyone who would actually try to watch something made by Lynch and actually try to understand it or enjoy it. It's all random self congratulatory, masturbatory, "surrealist" bull poo poo.

Are you actually having a hard time finding a plot here? Outside of the dreamy lodge sequences and most of Episode 8, it's pretty straightforward imo. Slow, non-standard pacing, but still very easy to follow.

Oh my loving god, I just finished rewatching Blue Velvet and now I'm watching the making-of documentary on the Blu-Ray, and Fred Caruso (producer) is telling this story about how Lynch would take Polaroids with his son of chickens with their limbs chopped off and switched around  David Lynch sounds like the best dad

She works in a diner and serves people coffee. She falls for a guy who's tied up in criminal activity and drives a vehicle for a living. She is often shown wearing 50's era clothing in black and white.

I rewatched the first two episodes of season 3 last night, and something I picked up on was while Bad Cooper is talking to "Phillip Jeffries" in the hotel, Jeffries says "Missed you in New York" to which Bad Cooper says "Couldn't be helped." I never picked up on that before, which makes me think that Bad Cooper has actually met in person with whoever he thinks is Jeffries, and not just someone he's talking to on the phone. And perhaps Jeffries has something to do with the glass box in NY that we haven't revisited.Rageaholic Monkey posted:lol I should be keeping count of how many times we've had this exact same gimmick in this thread so far.

But to not like and assume that everyone who does likes it is pretending is just dumb. Its ok that you dont get it, no need to pretend that nobody gets it to make you feel better edit: dumb theory time: I just finished S2 yesterday, and here's my take on Bad Cooper: Windom Earle asks for Cooper soul and Cooper accepts. But then Bob comes and says Earle cant take Cooper soul, so he will take Earle soul. After that, he torments him, he becomes catatonic, Cooper flees, Bad Cooper appears. What if Earle actually took Cooper soul (or at least part of it), than Bob took Earle soul (which contained Cooper soul now), and made Bad Cooper out of it? So Bad Cooper would be Earle mixed with Coop and possessed by Bob. Or something Elias_Maluco fucked around with this message at 14:41 on Jul 3, 2017 |

Because it's fuuuuuuuuun. It's nice to have something to watch that isn't like - "ooh I wonder what's going to happen next week, I bet Detective Handsome is going to have a showdown with Titsgirl and I bet that gun he got given by a character called Checkov will somehow be important".

I get the impression you're watching this for the wrong reasons. It's not like anything else on tv, so acting like it's supposed to be Breaking Bad or something is actively impeding your enjoyment of the show.

I enjoyed most of season 1 until the murder mystery was over. Season 2 was so bad that I mostly just left it on in the background until the final handful of episodes where all the black lodge stuff started ramping up. Season 3 so far feels far more like season 2 than 1. It's the same dead pointless screen time filler and "wacky zany" lynch characters turned up to 1000% wackiness that got the show cancelled during it's 2nd season 26 years ago. Season 3 is a new spin on everything that was bad about and didn't work for Twin Peaks during it's first run.

You know what's odd? if Janey-E Jones did not have that weird E at the end of her first name, then her digits would add up at 118, just like Laura Palmer. But she's not Janey Jones, she's Janey-E Jones so her number is 123. But that is crazy and uh, kinda hard to think that's all a complete and utter coincidence.
