Rageaholic Monkey posted:I YouTubed "Twin Peaks one year later" because I could swear there would be at least a few hour-long video essays or whatever, but I could only find 2 ~12 minute long videos and they both sucked. I guess they could've been good had they been presented differently, but the presentation turned me off at least. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juiJLAfqt7k It's like, its alright, I like that they're even attempting to interpret the show. I generally agree with the broader ideas they're interpreting the series to contain. But even that being said, they don't go far enough with their own examples- like they have some neat things to say about the Audrey's Dance scene, but how do you talk about and totally ignore how the credits of that episode have the Audrey's Dance theme played in reverse?

It reminds me of a similar argument about Lost Highway being a hitpiece on some Oliver Stone stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAi2ehBBw7M Might have been linked here before.

It'd be cool if it happens, but if it doesn't I'm satisfied with what we have.

I like Wild at Heart but I still find it kind of surprising it won the Palme d'Or back in the day.

I would consider Dune to be an interesting failure at the very least- you still have some neat visuals, the first time Kyle and Lynch worked together, Patrick Stewart and Sting etc.

I used to not like Cache very much because it seemed kind of didactic to me, but then seeing both versions of Funny Games back to back really kind of put it in perspective for me lol.

I'd argue that at least some season 2 filler only ended up more relevant with The Return. Like Ben Horne's Civil War thing where he imagines himself changing history only ends up becoming a comedic foreshadowing for Cooper literally (And tragically) changing history in The Return.

I think James was always supposed to be kind of a dope. One of Jacoby's tapes of Laura even has her talking about how she can't believe how dumb he is.

I’d say Elephant Man and Straight Story are his most accessible by a wide margin. Straight Story in particular is insanely underrated- it’s like Lynch channelling John Ford. Raxivace fucked around with this message at 04:07 on Apr 20, 2019 |

Section 9 posted:They're the most accessible, but possibly the least "Lynch". I guess its kind of a moot point though because I think people should just watch all of his stuff anyways, Dune included.

I completely forgot that On the Air exists. Seems like as good a time as any to watch it. This whole conversation reminds me though that one of the things that I found most interesting about The Return was how it has a real accumulative quality in regards to the types of films Lynch made over his career. Like yeah you have Lynch the puzzlebox neonoir "what even is my identity also where the gently caress am I" storyteller in there and Lynch the surrealist, but also the Lynch interested in small town America and Lynch the comedian, and Lynch the social critic and even Lynch the concert filmmaker takes up a significant part of the runtime. It's like a final exam or something.

While I'm sure Anno had Twin Peaks on the mind considering how popular it was in the 90's in Japan, for the most part I feel like Godard is the better comparison to Anno than Lynch- you even find the whole "white text on black background interrogating the characters" thing in a movie like Masculun Feminin, and the collage style of the TV ending of Eva seems very reminiscent of his essay films like Historie(s) du cinema to me (Though granted its used for a very different purpose). When Godard is actually working in narrative he's often riffing on genres in his own way too of course, something all three of them have in common. kaworu you should watch the Rebuild of Eva movies at some point- I do think they have a similar relationship with NGE that The Return has with OG Twin Peaks. I think that's where the stronger Lynch comparison lies IMHO, particularly with the third Rebuild movie having very similar you can't relive/remake the past themes.

Eh, we do get dramatic echoes to those more comedic bits in season 2 though. Like Cooper literally trying to change history, an actual evil stepchild in Richard Horne (Reminder that "Dick" is a common nickname for Richard) etc.

All that Lost theorizing really caused a lot of people to miss the forest for the trees though and get mad when the finale didn't give them "answers". Hell I was one of them. Like I remember dozens of people swearing up and down that Lost wasn't a character drama- despite a third of most episodes being spent on pure character backstory.

I haven't been following the rewatch, but I hope y'all have been enjoying it.Volte posted:One thing I think the video did get right (or at least, is on the right track about) is that Twin Peaks is a TV show whose "TV-show-ness" is part of the fabric of its universe. Not necessarily in a fourth-wall-breaking meta kind of way, but in the sense that when the characters question the nature of their universe (or should I say "the absurd mystery of the strange forces of existence") they are really wondering about the medium in which they exist: television.
