Basebf555 posted:It's definitely true that the larger mysteries of the Black/White Lodge were more of a backdrop in the original series, and in Season 3 all that became pretty central to almost every storyline. I can understand someone preferring the original formula to the pure uncut Lynch that we got in Season 3. Black/White Lodge stuff was pretty important in S2 too. At least on the second half of it

To be fair I definitely would have trouble respecting the taste of someone who didn’t like 308.

Episode 8 is the greatest episode of television ever and the fact that it's so divisive only reinforces that.

I loved the floor sweeping scene then and I love it now. There was a scene in Missing Pieces where Sarah is looking for a sweater and freaking out and Laura tells her she’s wearing it. Sarah panics and says something like “oh no, it’s happening again isn’t it” It completely recontextualizes a lot for me because it makes it seem like Sarah knows about the abuse/being drugged. I guess it makes sense that they cut it out because if it was in, Sarah should have acted a lot differently in S1, but it was a super powerful scene.

Pine Warrens is hilarious and brilliant but it's its own thing, can't be really compared to the rest of the show IMO. It's like a Darrin Morgan X-Files episode.

they played this and a ton of other parodies before FWWM at the Alamo Drafthouse, it was cool as hell The SNL skit was basically five minutes of Leo saying "IT WAS ME, I DID IT"

The hours of behind-the-scenes Lynch stuff alone makes the blu-ray worth the cost.

wa27 posted:The hours of behind-the-scenes Lynch stuff alone makes the blu-ray worth the cost. This also explains why a lot of dialogue scenes are kind of bland in execution. Lynch needs his play time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUTY0QrKJSQ Currently, I'm rewatching Twin Peaks with my cousin and this exchange between Cooper and Audrey happens: quote:Cooper: Audrey, you 're a high school girl. I'm an agent of the FBI. On a different note, it's also amusing to me how functional the naming scheme for some characters is. The last names of all major characters in Laura's class start with an H so they can be called out in a row during the pilot: quote:- Donna Hayward? - Here. edit: The start of season two creates a very interesting parallel to the third season. Both Cooper getting shot and Dougie turning back into Cooper are surrounded by intense slowness. At the start of season two, Cooper can barely walk, and he's pretty much lost track of the case. Similarly, Dougie is incredibly lumbering for most of the show. However, while season two marks a complete unravelling of the case, a loss of control, in season three Cooper comes out of his coma completely certain of his goal. Cooper in season three is right on track, outpacing the police, and reaching Twin Peaks even before the FBI gets there. Someone really needs to compile the many times people say "I think I'm dreaming" in Twin Peaks. It happens a lot. And More fucked around with this message at 10:03 on Dec 1, 2019 |

After Twin Peaks kept popping up in my life at an uneasy frequency, followed by it popping up on Netflix while I was bored and having never seen it before, I binged the entirety of all three seasons plus FWWM in four days I feel a little ill.

Dang that's pretty heroic. I'm gonna get together with my oldest friend over Easter and we're going for a season 3 binge after I finally got him to watch the first two plus FWWM. We've been watching weird movies and listening to off-off-mainstream music since the old days (brothers in arts), and Lynch's 90s output was always a particular favourite, so I'm very much looking forward to his take on, well everything really but especially stuff like episode 8. e: when we watched Mulholland Drive we took a smoke break halfway through and stood on the street for a good 15 minutes just going "what the gently caress" at each other, it's gonna be that all over again

The ending is seriously the most powerful director to audience lesson that I’ve ever experienced. Any other director would end up making it cynical and dismissive to the audience. Lynch threw us a completely Twin Peaks style gut punch in the form of reminding us what the show was always about. Then entire third season was a bit of a lesson/statement though wasn’t it? Ugh I loving love Twin Peaks.

https://25yearslatersite.com/2019/03/29/surrealist-objects-in-twin-peaks/ I really liked this article and the comparisons it makes to other surrealist metaphor. At the end of the day the correct way to experience Lynch is to feel it and allow the meaning to be vague.
