I've definitely grown to enjoy and appreciate the Dougie/Mr. C stuff, and other new parts of the show, and letting go a little bit of "our" Cooper. What don't you like about the Norma/Ed relationship? He was watching her during that entire business meeting from the background and I was paying more attention to him than the business guy.

Man I'm so confused about that post. A lot of it sounds like it's being super positive about the new series, talking nicely about so many of the character scenes, but then it comes to the conclusion that it's bad?

norma is 70!? get the gently caress outta here. also, the red mist poo poo and dodgy gun fire effects are all part of that lynch DV cheapo magic that just adds the charm.

Someone asked earlier if it was true that Lynch kept adding onto the "finished" script while Frost wrote the book, and apparently it's true. Sabrina Sutherland answered a bunch of questions at the Twin Peaks Fest, here's a rundown from reddit:quote:David and Mark obviously co-wrote the series... to a point. Around the time they handed things over to Showtime, things changed a bit. Mark went off to write The Secret History of Twin Peaks and David directed the whole thing, but the interesting thing to note here is that, as you all may recall, the series Showtime announced was going to be 8 or 9 episodes. There was that whole drama where David announced he quit, Showtime caved, and now we have 18 episodes. This was NOT a case of the existing material simply being stretched out. According to Sabrina, David actually continued to write. So this seems to have shifted the level of writing involvement more heavily to Lynch than Frost. EDIT: For clarity, it's not that David wrote nine more episodes. It's more like he wrote more scenes interspersed throughout the existing material. Lots more details from the cast interviews and such here: https://www.reddit.com/r/twinpeaks/comments/6s5f7g/s3e18_twin_peaks_fest_rundown_details_about_the/

Y'all are shocked about Peggy being 70 but I'm more shocked that Naomi Watts is nearly 50. She looks drat good for that age. If I didn't know better, I'd have guessed she was in her mid-30s. Dougie-Coop is a lucky guy.

So I'm watching the series for the first time right now, and I'm still in season 2, so I won't be sticking around because of spoilers and such. I just wanted to say that this is my favorite line in the entire series, and I crack up every time I think of the delivery. The world doesn't deserve Jack Nance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwywzgXu5_Q

People that were already good looking tend to still look good even when older. Especially if they're wealthy enough to maintain themselves.

Rewatched the last episode and I don't even see a reflection at the end on my TV. Nevermind that though, check out how happy Candie is at the start. Everything worked out and she gets to do something nice for Bushnell and she's so overjoyed she's almost crying. Candie owns and Amy Shiels owns.

I really hope Candie's story goes somewhere. Her acting has been great and I'd rather there be something supernatural going than her just being dim.

And yeah, Amy Shiels has been amazing. They really nailed Candie's casting. She's got a great sense of humor, too; I loved her selfie with James that she captioned "James and Candie have always been cool" and her photoshop where Candie is swatting the frogbug from episode 8.

...! posted:I'm 40 and she looks younger than most women my age. It's totally fair to think Naomi Watts looks younger than her age, but to their credit, most 40 year old women you see on the street or hang out with at a bar also don't have professional make-up artists, hairstylists, designers, personal trainers, and image consultants working to make them look as young and beautiful as possible. A lot of people in Hollywood's job is to make sure that actors are attractive and age gracefully.

I'm just spinning my wheels because I can't sit on my hands till the next episode. Same here. It's entertaining, but I doubt I'm ever gonna watch it again. And I've watched the whole second season a few times. The characterization in this is just horrible. It's like the Star Wars prequels of FWWM.

Oh drat I didn't know this wiki existed but I could probably spend hours on this poo poo. I don't know if trying to make that whole movie make sense is somewhat of a fool's errand, but I'm very interested with what I've read so far.

Cromulent posted:This might be a stretch, but Hawk's map had 3 birds (above Glastonbury Grove, I think), and Candie and two other showgirls wear feathers in their hair. She also made the same motion with her hand that the shadow of the "bird" made on the curtains in the original red room dream scene.

Zmej posted:I tried rewatching episodes 1 through 4 last night to give them another chance. I had to fast forward through half the episodes and still found them kinda frustrating. It definitely feels like everything that happened in those first 4 could have been condensed into two. This show isn't really about things happening. Or maybe it would be better to say that's not its primary focus. quote:Also, I still cannot figure out what is happening editing/effects-wise when Danzig shoots Hasting's wife. Is there a weird cut and shot-merge? Or is there missing frames? Or is the blood spray just really loving weird? Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Looked to me like another shot of her fall superimposed over the main one.

Just watched episode 12, I'm not a huge fan of most of this season so far (except Hawk, who is still cool), but this episode especially was some unwatchable, protracted bullshit. I hate it when the people I watch a show with start looking at their phones but that's what happened here. It was just super boring with all the mentions of unseen or unmemorable characters and poo poo dragging out ridiculously. I didn't like it. Is the next one better?
