DrVenkman posted:God, I really hope that Lynch finds a way to bring back 'Invitation To Love'. Unlikely. That was all Frost's baby and I believe that Lynch's uncertainty about them is why they didn't come back for the second season.

PantsBandit posted:I'm three episodes into the new season now and while it's definitely way higher budget, I find myself missing the coziness of the original series. The violence and supernatural elements of OG Twin Peaks were on the fringes, just barely tugging at the viewer's awareness as they were absorbed by the characters and humor of the show that generally were at the forefront. This one is so heavy on the brutality and death and despair, it's honestly kind of hard to watch. Is this going to change at all or do I just need to resign myself to a very different sort of Twin Peaks? The humour, tone, quirkiness, and charm kick back in a lot in the next two episodes, though the more brutal and odd elements remain.

stanovich posted:The biggest disappointment of this season is that people have suddenly decided to change the name of The Roadhouse to The Bang Bang Bar. Wasn't it always called that on the sign? I think it's one of those things where it has an official name and everybody calls it something different that is cooler.

Just jumping (heh heh) into say that the fact that the actor who played the Jumping Man still has not appeared makes me think that character is going to be part of a visceral, horrific journey through many of the show's demonic entities and I can't wait to see what visuals are cooked up.

https://twitter.com/amy_shiels/status/891495312690434048 This tweet by the actress who plays Candie made me start connecting some dots in my head. There is a lot of suspicion that Cooper and Candie are suffering from the same ailment, but this text connecting James with her made me think: Cooper/Dougie's "condition" we are told was caused in a car accident, and everyone in his life seems to roll with it. Well James got into an accident too and was described as "weird" but just like people around Dougie accepting and even loving him, Shelly defends James with the now famous quote. I want to go back to that scene and see if he parrots what the other guy he is with is saying. I think there is potentially about to be a big reveal about many "manufactured" people.

Polo-Rican posted:Hearing Charlie say the "do you want me to end your story" line has me really intrigued. I'm starting to think his character might be like The Cowboy or The Man Behind the Dumpster in Mulholland Drive; that he's really powerful in an inexplicable way and could snap his fingers and reverse the entire world of the show if he so chose. I will lose my god drat mind if this show ends with a twist as big as Mulholland's: for example, if the entire thing is a nightmare Audrey is having while in a coma and absolutely nothing is what it seems. Absolutely. There's some weird identity shift happening with her. I'm just not sure if this somehow transfers to other characters in the town (or beyond). This show is so fun. I still think the colour of the Rancho Rosa titles is going to play into the plot somehow.

Zmej posted:Just be like Dougie. Accept and fully experience a thing like you've never encountered it before with immersion and child-like innocence. Except James subplots. Heck, Season 2 isn't really that offensive to me and I'm ok how it went because we got FWWM. Yeah I'm trying to treat this like my first viewing of Mulholland Dr where I was just willing to follow all of the weird avenues like music. There's a chance I will have things to complain about when it has ended but I want to see the whole package first. I am trying not to be negative about anything until then (although I really have very little complaints in general, although the pacing may become an issue if there is no time and/or alternative universe weirdness going on). I just doubt there will be a television program this enrapturing and hypnotizing on television for a long time so I am just savouring it right now and saving any potential criticism for after the whole series is completed. Such exciting news about the episode. You are the third person online I have heard say that. Trying not to hype myself up too much though because I did that for 12 and it was the only one I was somewhat underwhelmed by.

The Walrus posted:was the fwwm flashback scene a joke about nostalgia revivals? it didnt really tell anything new or tie anything together as a previous poster suggested imo You are expected to have watched FWWM before this series, but if you're not a superfan I could see forgetting a detail like Bowie's line. I thought the glass box scene was going to end up being the scariest scene in the revival but I think each recent Sarah Palmer scene has topped it.

Genuine question: how the hell did Fire Walk With Me get such horrible reviews upon release? I just rewatched it, and while it is not a perfect movie, it is harrowing in a way only a few films I have watched can compare (Grave of the Fireflies and Come and See being the two I can think of offhand). Along with The Thing, the initial reaction to it has really damned a lot of mainstream movie criticism for me.

Raxivace posted:Short answer is that people were mad it didn't have the same tone as the TV show, basically. IIRC others were mad that a prequel was even being made at all, since Laura's story was already told in the show more or less, and they wanted the cliffhanger from season 2 resolved instead. This explains the fan reaction, but not necessarily critics, many of whom I imagine had not seen the series. Then again, not having seen the series introduces some problems in understanding the film, so maybe that's it. It pleased no one.

Can't remember if this has been mentioned but the sound effects for one punch man were hilarious and now I'm convinced Frost/Lynch are taking the piss out of superhero shows like Iron Fist. And yeah Lynch hated what they did with the supernatural elements in the finale so scrapped almost all of it. I actually don't think the script is as bad as many Peaks fans do and thought it had some inventive ideas, but Earle's dialogue is awful, and Bob in a dentist suit may have been a final jump the shark moment for me. Overall though, I think it just plays worse compared to the amazing finale we got. Imagine a finale without the little man, the giant, the waiter, Maddie, Leland, Sarah, etc. Etc. Jeez.

I wonder why the owls haven't played more of a role this season. Did Lynch/Frost just decide to go with electricity instead for the lodge spirits travellings?

Also the amazingly otherworldly "Slow 30s" song and what might be my new favourite Badalamenti track in "The Fireman"

Mark Frost wrote Albert's speech to Truman, and is therefore forever immune from criticism.

eSporks posted:The book doesn't give a lot of details, but it flat out says she married her accountant in loveless contractual marriage So Charlie's an accountant huh? There's another bald accountant later in the season...maybe a bit of a stretch but considering the many other parallels... It would be interesting to actually list all of them. So much duality featured.

Cromulent posted:I think the only part that could be legitimately skipped without missing too much is the lovely third of S2. I really don't think 5-6 episodes, even the most "important" ones, will do the series justice. Even those have the Briggs disappearances and introdiction of the White and Black Lodges that become so important to later in the season and the newest one.

Yeah I agree that a lot of the violence and exploitation of men against women goes unresolved in the season precisely to drive that point home. "Laura is the one" only in the sense that she represents the town's original sin in a way, not that she is more special than any of the others.

Cromulent posted:All this talk of lore made me realize that in S3, "Black Lodge" is only ever said once, the White Lodge is never mentioned, and garmonbozia is never spoken of. It's interesting what parts of the lore were not or seldom mentioned. Blue Rose came to the forefront. Hell, even the latter season 2 Project Blue Book got a mention!

that ivy guy posted:That little cricket chirp/strange noise when Laura vanished off screen was probably the single most offputting thing in the entire show. Not sure what about it got to me so much Since you didn't mention it, it's the same sound the Fireman plays Coop in the very first scene of the season, and I remember already feeling a bit intrigued but perturbed.
