eSporks posted:His biography doesn't mention it at all, he was a pretty dork in highschool and wore suit jackets all the time. In college he was in a relationship and pretty much stayed in one (different ones) for the rest of his life. I don't really get the sense from his book that he was that type, but I dunno. Room to Dream makes him look like a real ladies man. There is an enire passage devoted to his fascination with wild, erotic women or something like that. During the Eraserhead shoot the mother of his wife comes to visit and reports: "All the girls on set are in love with David." He also cheats on one of his wives with some actress whose name I forgot, and later drops her when he gets bored. By the way, Sherilyn Fenn starred in a movie called Meridian: Kiss of the Beast alongside an actress named Charlie. In this movie, she and Charlie are raped by two twin magicians who turn into werewolves. Charlie later played an extra in the third episode of Twin Peaks. Probably a coincidence.

JOHN SKELETON posted:Yeah, he kinda comes across as a poo poo husband and a poo poo father, but a good friend. This is honestly kind of true of a lot of brilliant artists - it's sort of one of those things. Many of them can be good people and they are certainly brilliant, but they often are not the sort of people whom you'd want in your immediate family... My uncle is a conceptual artist (Dan Graham - there's a much higher likelihood of someone knowing who he is in this thread) and while he is absolutely brilliant and I always enjoy seeing him he's also led a somewhat piecemeal and difficult and lonely life when it comes to personal affairs. He was good friends with Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth fame in the '70s though, and was actually the first person to get her to perform in a rock band as a favor to him in one of his projects. As I recall she was his downstairs neighbor (in SoHo I think) and they became friends, and Dan was pretty hosed up with his depression/bipolar disorder which is severe and couldn't take care of himself, so Kim Gordon more or less cooked and cleaned and shopped for him and stuff for a while back then. This was before Sonic Youth existed bear in mind and Dan was a fairly established artist already in NYC. It's almost a bit odd that 'The Sonic Youth' wasn't one of the bands who performed at the Road House in Season 3 - they're the kinda group I'd expect to see rockin' out there, and Kim Gordon is Lynch's kind of lady I'd think. I can only imagine that their music would go pretty drat well with Twin Peaks imagery/Lynchian imagery in general. They seem to have some sort of common ethos.

Other than the one affair, the book only mentions him in long term relationships, although they could be leaving things out. I get the sense he was a huge dorky teenager and young adult that grew up to be a charismatic and interesting person later in life. IIRC all his relationships mentioned in the book were people younger than him. If James is any kind of self insertion (it's not) I'd say it's more the type of person a dorky teenager with sexual fantasies was jealous of. He definitely had lots of attention from girls, but it all seemed to come later in life, not in the "wayward youth" sense.

The only band that should have performed at the roadhouse in s3 was The Residents.

Though I think Sonic Youth playing "Antenna" would have fit really well conceptually.

Hey, anybody want to buy Laura Palmer's coffin? https://us.propstoreauction.com/view-auctions/catalog/id/146/ Midway down. There are a couple of Great Northern signs too, along with a bunch of other non-Lynch TV and movie stuff. If I win that coffin, can one of you come over when I die and jump on top of it at the funeral for me?

I could buy the coffin but I have no idea where I'd put it or what I'd do with it. I guess I could put it in storage and be buried in it myself when the time comes... Honestly the price isn't bad for a coffin especially this coffin. Coffins are ridiculously expensive.

Maybe that has something to do with Briggs' demeanor, the zen quality that he has. Maybe he's one of the rare people who was able to pass through the Black Lodge and then into the White Lodge, and therefore is considered to have "perfect courage".

Even more than the first Audrey scene my least favourite part of The Return was definitely the shot in episode 17 with Evil Coop being transported to in front of the sheriff’s station that’s literally just a bunch of jpgs being tweened around including Major Briggs head

Franchescanado posted:edit: Wait, can we say that Briggs succeeded? He seems to be stuck as a disembodied head floating in space. From what he says in Season 2, it seems that he's already been to the White Lodge at least once as a result of his work with Project Bluebook. That, along with the way he acts implies to me that he successfully faced down his shadow self.

SeANMcBAY posted:I loved those shots because I could picture Lynch standing being some animator giving orders to make it look like that. I'm sure that's exactly what happened. His effects have looked the same since the 70s. It's just the medium that has changed and with CGI it ends up looking pretty crappy a lot of the time. I don't mind them as much knowing that it's probably more because that's exactly how he envisioned it rather than just cheaping out on CGI.

I like them. It gives more of a sense of “what the gently caress” unreality than proper CGI probably could have done. I can totally see why people could think it’s poo poo though

Major Briggs was a seeker, much like Agent Cooper, and possibly the only person to encounter the Black Lodge and avoid corruption. 2nd-best character on Twin Peaks.

The weird sfx are Lynch leaning heavily into the digital medium vs film. All of the effects and editing play around with the the way digital gear can get weird and glitch and appear surreal in its own counterpart to the way film/analog gear does the same. I think there was a good YouTube video about this but I can’t remember anything about it.

Those floors look really good shot on fuzzy old film. With new equipment the whole room just has a slightly different aesthetic - clearer, sharper, more realistic, but less warm and less romantic.
