If you slow down the final scream and insert pauses at specific points, it kind of sounds like "I'LL SEE YOU IN FIVE YEARS AT CANNES!"

I think GoT was on at the same time and I told my friends to come over an hour later because I needed to watch this first. (And type along in this thread)

over the last two months I have been watching the TV episodes of Twin Peaks for the first time I'm currently nearing the end of Season 3- only two episodes left- I would not have thought this, at all, given the cultural place Twin Peaks has inhabited for most of my life, but: This is by far the most hopeful, anti-doom, refreshing piece of television media I have ever seen in my life. On top of this, it manages this feeling while doing a litany of awful things to its characters' lives- David Lynch seems to, not apologize for this, but soften the blow, for Shelly, in the back half of Season 2, culminating in an all-timer of a line in a show full of those, something like "WHAT YOU ARE WITNESSING IS A THREE-QUARTERS POSTERIOR VIEW OF TWO ADULTS SHARING A TENDER MOMENT." I feel that Lynch really carries these characters' troubles in his heart, as though they're family- his acting as Gordon Cole has improved drastically since 1991, but that weight was there back then, and seems to run deeper than any known acting method he's learned in the meantime. Anyway. Finishing dinner, about to watch the rest. This post could be hilariously optimistic, given I don't know where I'm venturing- and yet, I feel that no matter what happens to these people I've been spending time with, I will leave feeling calmer and more ready for our rapidly mutating reality irl

It ends the same way the pilot begins: with Laura Palmer lost to the world.

I'm going to need to sleep before I think about this too hard- it's- I can see why that's where it landed you- however Lynchian dread, in my relatively brief experience with it, isn't always meant to be dreadful- just putting you in the place of dread to send an orthogonal message plan to post more later, just got back from beers with pals, eating late nite tamales, but, the sense I get from all of this is strong: we're gonna be okay. not because bad things aren't going to happen- but because we are resilient. broadly speaking, on five beers and one tamale, thats my takeaway, plan to share more once I've integrated what I've seen a bit better

The ending frustrates me- in a good way- since to me it feels like Cooper had basically won but he just had to push his luck a bit farther and ended up loving everything up in his hubris

Maybe he has a choice about changing past events, but I don’t think he can just go off into the sunset. Events conspire to put him in the sheriff’s office with everyone together and the clocks all stopped.

So cool, glad to see you dig the show! And yeah, just powerful, crazy stuff. I do love the way David has that hopeful stuff. That heart on it's sleeve earnestness, as well as tackling the horror and sadness out there in life. "Why is there so much trouble in this world?" from Blue Velvet is my fav from his movies, sums it all up. I do think that ending is showing the scary unknowable nature of things, and it's pretty intense. Existential terror. But still I do think it's somehow a more okay cliffhanger than the iconic season 2 one to leave off on. But it sure would rule if we don't leave off there just yet.

wanted to share some thoughts but needed to get over the synchronicity of Julee Cruise passing probably about when I saw her closing an ep of S3- I saw her and thought, "oh, perfect, it's her", and let the emotion take me, cried a little in a beautiful, nice to feel way. then the thought, "the credits on this season are very good and easy to read, this time let's make note of her name" I did, and went off to hang out with friends for some garage beers, not knowing of her passing until checking this thread the next day. Sad news, seems like she was a light in the lives of many who knew her, and I am glad to hear she had the opportunity to choose the moment and milieu of her transition Rageaholic posted:Those last 2 episodes are unbelievable. Hope you have a great time with them! absolutely stunning, everything falls into place, including a false dread part of me felt, that another part of me knew was false because BOB/Coop wasn't put in Twin Peaks to menace, he was put there as a trap The part of me that felt the false fear is represented in the show by the visually hectic yet sparse Black Lodge; the part of me that felt confident, fist-pumping as soon as he showed up there, is represented by the visually calming yet cluttered White Lodge. I have never seen a piece of media like this pull such an intricate connection between viewer and the piece. It's not attempting to pull experiences it's guessing I've had- it's pulling from the collective psyche we all share, in symbols crafted precisely, like a spell Also there is an important message in this: the absolutely most important people in the world, the ones who are tapped into knowing what has to be done for humanity to heal itself and advance to a world without suffering, are the Andy Brennans and Lucy Morans of the world. The way Andy gets a High Strangeness White Lodge full briefing, takes it seriously and totally in-stride, and applies the knowledge and wisdom gained exactly as he is supposed to- what a delight! There's a reason the lodges kept bludgeoning other tools of their destiny, like Cooper, over and over again with visions and dreams- his mind is squirrely, with twisting paths and traps set for intruders. Andy and Lucy only need light Weirdness touches- Andy's vision and Lucy's inability to understand cell phones The battle with BOB- swelled with hope, knew Freddy would prevail, paid attention to themes: it often feels like we struggle alone but there is, metaphorically, a room full of extremely unlikely allies on our side. This show carries the theme of adversaries- either deathly enemies or just people who annoy each other- becoming firm allies and friends, often coincidentally, in the face of cosmic evil type threat. Freddy doesn't strike until after he is struck- it's not the clever trick of a preemptive attack that wins, thats a fear-based thing. It's resilience, boundless tubthumping, survival, that wins- and that's love. StashAugustine posted:The ending frustrates me- in a good way- since to me it feels like Cooper had basically won but he just had to push his luck a bit farther and ended up loving everything up in his hubris I don't think he hosed anything up at all, tbh- Laura Palmer is the one from which come the many- when I think about what the more symbolic and cryptic scenes (which seem to take place in dually opposite representations of the collective psyche) I take this to mean that she is the first person like her, the first of a new archetype. The White Lodge created Laurapalmerness as a response and vaccination against forces which have ripped through our culture, art, and day to day interactions since they were unleashed in White Sands during Trinity. She has a behavioral set and outlook that doesn't fit right in the midcentury soap opera daydream world of early Twin Peaks. You'd be mistaken if you thought she matched a stock archetype- characters like Lana and Audrey are there to tell you, no: these are old ideas that don't quite map to Laura. But something was messed up, when she was killed- the lodges knew of Cooper's hubris, counted on it even. They put him back at his most hubristic moment- when he is his doppelganger coming to be in a hotel room with Diane. Except this time, BOB is absent, and the positive aspects of Cooper's animating fear-force can be wielded to ensure Laura Palmer survives. She goes missing instead- this is unforseen, and causes complications, but that's not a worry, just a hitch. Things aren't perfect, by far, but the parallel new universe is one closer to justice and healing than the one before. Texas Laura, whose new name escapes me, works at a diner and is having trouble at home, hasn't been to work in a while- this immediately caught my attention, they've been riding this exact trope hard. But there's a change, here: her circumstance when Cooper arrives is not the soap opera of a tearful and terrified abused woman, with the trappings of an affair with another man. We don't know her situation with the dead man in the chair, but the pattern has been established to lead us honestly to presume that this is her abuser. Laura breaks patterns, and her brutal method of pattern breaking stems from being a vaccine for entities like BOB, a less fear-based form, but still destructive- a synthesis as scaffolding for future human apotheosis. The world changes when Laura isn't killed; it becomes more like our own world: teeming with five decades now of Laura Palmers, of people raised in a culture attempting to inoculate what nuclear weapons released in us as a species- while still generating throwbacks like Wally Brando. And it's a better world- we do not, by far, live in the worst possible timeline. We do live in the time of monsters, however, and as we accelerate towards a world beyond fear and suffering, horrors scared of going extinct thrash in the futile effort of survival.

one more thing- the ending, I think, supports my idea that they're at least in a more stable, "real" universe- everything weird that happens in the final sequence at the Palmer house has mundane explanation: -A couple of homeowners are reluctant to respond openly to a doorstep grilling from a a pair of strangers about their personal and property history -A woman who just fled with a guy who claims to be an FBI agent just realized that she doesn't know anything about this odd man who has taken her to a very remote town, and screams -The power goes out in an older suburban-style home in a remote rural town None of this is the visual cut and paste that the rest of the season is increasingly buttery-rich with- if I'd read a reputable report that those sequence of events happened irl somewhere, it wouldn't seriously challenge my view of reality like a guy turning into black smoke would Peanut Butler fucked around with this message at 23:40 on Jun 12, 2022 |
