There's also stuff like Alien where the first four movies actually came out at a fairly consistent pace every 5-7 years, but I remember when Resurrection was announced I perceived it as "a new sequel to that old trilogy."

I remember watching Mulholland Drive with my buddy when we were like 17-18 and taking a smoke break halfway through where we just stood outside going "what the gently caress" at each other.

makes me wish we'd had Twin Peaks S3 back then, holy poo poo.

Episode 3, including the pilot. That was an easy one.

although now that season 3 exists a valid answer is also "it gets weird intermittently throughout the first two seasons and then S3 immediately ramps up the baseline for weird by like 500%"

Now I'm picturing Twin Peaks but with regular guest stars playing their characters from other shows like they used to do on sitcoms, and it's the most amazing thing.

from the s2 finale onwards
It's funny how we can now phrase it like that when for 25 years the whole of Twin Peaks was, in order, half great, half aimless, mother of all cliffhangers and a movie no one liked :v:

I've got this theory that you can view the whole of season 2 as three distinct mini seasons, each about as long as S1. 2a is everything from the start to, well, a fairly obvious point really. 2b has aimless subplots and ends when Diane Keaton's episode ties them all up, in my opinion well enough that it's worth sitting through them. 2c is the rest, basically the Windom Earle season, and is half hot garbage and half essential Twin Peaks lore so in many ways it's the hardest part.

I thought Legion had some pretty strong David Lynch vibes when I first saw it. Recently I rewatched S1 and the impression has diminished somewhat, I think I just originally watched it at around the same time as Twin Peaks S3, but it does still have those "what's real and what's not and what's just a metaphor" elements and gets quite loving odd.

It was great when the show aired cause everyone was like AUDREY WHEN every week, and when she finally showed up it was the excitement of "oh my god there she is" immediately followed by "what the gently caress?"

Lost Highway was the only Lynch film I couldn't finish because there was such an oppressive sense of dread in it. I'm not sure what happens but I can tell you something very bad was going to happen in that house
How far did you get because you're completely spot on there but it's not even remotely the whole truth of it :v:

If anything the last 30 minutes tie it all together.

Every time I watch it these days I think "oh this is actually perfectly straightforward" but I couldn't explain it for the life of me.

Well it's in the credits as Experiment, but there's a stronger case for it being Judy than just about anything else.

though, keep in mind that whatever's inside Sarah is clearly shown to have originated from the Experiment along with BOB. God what a weird show :allears:

Come to think of it, Zelda also does (or did for a good while) have a theme of good or evil parallel worlds, too.

I maintain that mid-season 2 is worth it for the Diane Keaton episode.

I've been getting a lot out of watching a director's whole filmography in chronological order.
Been doing this with Tarantino, it was pretty good.

Section 9 posted:

2) What movies/shows that aren't Lynch would you consider Lynch adjacent in such a way that you would recommend them to anyone who likes Lynch (and maybe specifically Twin Peaks since that's the thread topic) Not because they have anything in common with Twin Peaks, Lynch, or whatever but just because you feel like people who vibe with Lynch would vibe with them.
Pretty much all of Nicolas Winding Refn's movies and particularly his streaming shows. And adjacent to that, Lost River.

e: Legion gave me Lynchian vibes when I first watched it.

Lord of the Rings is kind of the playbook on how to turn a book into a Media Property though with endless spinoffs, reimaginings, pre- and sequels and the assorted merchandise for each.

Then again looking at the Dune books...
