You plebians just don't know what epic literature is. You should try reading Stephanie Meyer, E.L. James, Dan Brown, or Ayn Rand.
Who else does what Lynch does in cinema right now? There's very few auteurs left, and the only living director that is as good as Lynch is Lars Von Trier- but after he got banned from Cannes he fell into a deep depression again and slowed down a bit.

I was rewatching episode 8 with a friend the other day, and goddamn it most of the White Lodge scenes look like moving paintings. You could've hit pause at any point without the image losing any of its charm. And the audio, both music choices and sound editing (which Lynch does himself) were nothing short of breathtaking. To be honest those were the most hypnotic 40 minutes of cinema/tv I've seen in recent years.

Vikar Jerome posted:

then what is the point of her crawling and screaming if not part of the larger mirror motifs & themes present in the entire series.
Right, this is why I asked. The video lined up the screams despite not having to, because we all already understood the mirror motif. The person who made that clip did not need to make it at all... the same point could have been made in a single picture, thus why I asked why the video exists and why it lined up the screams. Doing that would normally insinuate there is some interesting synchronicity between the scenes other than the basic fact that they are mirroring each other.
Sorry the reply is so late.

I'm super disappointed in their portrayal of her and would rather have not had them go there at all but it is what it is. She says "gently caress you" a lot and that's good enough for me.

I would have really liked a reference to tapes or something.

her characterization in S3 lead me to think she HATES the S1 and S2 cooper for being such a goof on the tapes which is a retcon i didn't want.

I thought Albert going "I know, 'gently caress you Albert'." was the payoff of that gag, and was the show acknowledging that it had a recurring joke that had just hit its peak and was now ending.

But then she kept doing it...

...and she's still doing it... :/

I think she has/had a deep connection to Cooper and whatever Booper did to her it ruined what I assume was once a charming friendly lady. Or at least, not a bitter and condescending person.

I saw that both of your podcasts this week were 1 hour 2 minutes and had a brief hope that it was some sort of crossover podcast. If you can manage it, I think it would be great if you and the Diane crew did a crossover wrap-up podcast at the end of the season.

This would be pretty cool. Both podcasts are such different styles and I enjoy them for different reasons. Diane is much more analytical and approaching everything from a film making perspective and Peaked is just 2 dudes hanging out talking about the show with each other. It would also be great to see the people from Diane trying to explain to the skeptic from Peaked (sorry, I suck at names) why everything is good and perfect.

My first thought is that this would basically be the "good cop/bad cop" of Twin Peaks podcast, but then immediately fixed it to be "good Coop/bad Coop," as it should be.

Yeah, that's why I'd love for the two to merge and have a big discussion about it all. Both podcasts are good, but they have very different approaches to the show. I'd love for everyone to get together and discuss it. Though I worry it might end up like this thread with people having harsh arguments about what is really happening. But if it's all in soothing British voices I'm cool with that.

I liked the interpretation that Bing and Bown had on their podcast about it being a representation of the powerlessness that women feel with men just sort of controlling their lives. I think a lot of the scenes that aren't part of the main story are just Lynch and Frost telling us how they feel about where the world is and why it is lovely. Dr. Amp is complaining about big corporations and how they control our lives. Gordon talking about "fix your hearts or die". The reactions of the people when the kids gets run down by Richard. It's all sort of discussing how people deal with things, and what is right and wrong in America. It has no bearing on the storyline of Twin Peaks, but it is a serious statement about what's going on in the world today and how people deal with things.

I'm on board with that reading of the first part of the line where she just sits on the ground hopelessly as her way of dealing it. Once she starts crawling, I don't feel like it holds up.

My prediction is that we're gonna end on the biggest cliffhanger, and then the show gets cancelled, bringing us full circle. Seriously, though, you cynical bastards need to take a hint from Back to the Future and start trusting in the power of love (that emanates from Garland Briggs' decapitated floating head). I believe in Cole, Albert, Dougie, Hawk, Ed, Norma, Onepunch Man, etc. They're gonna save the day.

It's connected to the main plot in the sense that all of these things are indicative of the world being out of balance. The black lodge and the doppelganger have caused the world to be in the poo poo, and we need Dougie to shovel us out. Basically, it's Leland and BOB, just on a lager scale.

It's not exactly proof, but I think the magical dope peddler kind of hints towards the Black Lodge being the source of that crazy meth all the kids are doing.

One weird aspect is that Mr. C hasn't actually killed anyone innocent yet. Even Warden Murphy must have done something really hosed up. "Mr. Strawberry" sounds like a sex thing, imo.
