I feel like Twin Peaks would have done better if they had gone with the international pilot ending for episode 1, thus introducing the supernatural elements earlier on.
I can't agree with this even a little bit. I love season 1, and while the darker and more surrealist episodes of season 2 may reach higher highs, there's a magic to season 1, it's just so comfy.
Yeah the show got so much better once it went completely off the rails and Lynch started jerking himself off instead of writing a coherent television show
No
X-files is monster of the week. TP is one big narrative revealed piece by piece. And also the narrative doesn't matter. It's just a delivery system for characters scenes and images.
Overall it's the best piece of audiovisual media ever made which you'll either love from the opening credits or get LYNCHED by.
>Bob Iger forces Lynch to resolve who killed Laura Palmer in a random episode of season 2 >The show immediately spins out of control without the central momentum keeping it together
Genuinely what the frick was Bob Iger thinking? Is he moronic? What did he think would happen?
Can't have a competent white guy in a show these days so Lynch made Cooper into an annoying moron. The show was kino for ten minutes when Cooper got back to normal. The rest was shit.
When did Lynch ever base his film or TV around competent white guys? TPs1 Cooper was a nut job who used dreams and Buddhism to try and solve crime, then tried to crack the black lodge and failed spending 25 years in purgatory
Filtered
Actually what happened is Lynch just reused a script he wrote for a Steve Martin movie way back when, called One Saliva Bubble, just switching in Coop for Steve.
I'm not one for pretentious artsy bullshit but season 3 manages to walk the line between true art and utter shit so well. It's crazy to think this aired on TV. It's so goddamn dense.
it's the most kino and ambitious tv series of all time and will never be topped.
no other director would have the balls to work in a 25 year IRL time jump from the second episode and also sit on footage for 25 years just to use it in the finale
Lynch unironically Googling "Hip Hop beat" and finding the first thing he sees. can't get more based than that. anyway for me it's S1 > S3 > S2. do NOT date Women that like Twin Peaks. not worth it bros. find yourselves a cute chubby blonde with shaved pits
Wanted to take advantage of having a troon character on the show who wasn’t portrayed as a sick villain or a constant punchline during the original run. Wanted to cash in their troony tokens with the critics
I’m sure Lynch sincerely believes in troony rights and all that shit and realized that his show had a rare positive portrayal of a troon in it in the 1990s and was jacking himself off over it more so than he was fishing for wokie upvotes.
>Bob Iger forces Lynch to resolve who killed Laura Palmer in a random episode of season 2 >The show immediately spins out of control without the central momentum keeping it together

His actual mistake was ordering 22 episodes instead of 8 like in the first season, less episodes would be easier to write into a major finale bait and retain audience interest
That was also idiotic but once you've already got a 22 episode season pressing Lynch to get it done before even the halfway point is certifiable. After the killer was revealed they still had hours upon hours of television time to fill.
something I enjoy about Season 3 is this symbol "you don't ever want to know about", described as follows:
Sheriff Truman: "What is this?"
Hawk: "It's corn. It's fertility. But it's - it's black, diseased or unnatural. Death. If you put these two symbols together, you get this."
So it's a combined symbol - Corn and Death. Fertility, diseased and unnatural. The proliferation of evil. The gathering of their forces, power, or resources.
Anyone into the Garmonbozia symbolism of the first 2 seasons knows that creamed corn ain't what it seems, and you don't want it on your plate. You "didn't order any creamed corn." And this symbol? The death-corn symbol? "You don't ever want to know about that." A serious evil.
Season 1 and 2 fans and wiki-browsers will know the common interpretation of the creamed corn "Garmonbozia" directly from the show: it means pain and suffering. It seems this pain and suffering, represented as creamed corn to those who have magic ability, is a representation of the pain and suffering created by the murders of Bob. And on the card Bad Coop holds, explaining it's what he's looking for, is this same death-corn symbol. Whose garmonbozia does Bad Coop want? Whose does he feel he is entitled to already?
Twin Peaks Seasons 1 and 2 are just recommended reading for the kino that is Twin Peaks The Return.
Dougie Jones.
red door
It's shit. Just an advertisement
have a nice day spammer
have a nice day
>an advertisement
Ok I'll bite.
An advertisement for what? Electricity? Finger sandwiches?
Eh, ignore him, he's been saying that in all the Peaks threads
It's yrev very good to see you again, old friends
I feel like Twin Peaks would have done better if they had gone with the international pilot ending for episode 1, thus introducing the supernatural elements earlier on.
I dislike the first season for this particular reason, that there is barely anything supernatural, it's just a boring procedural soap opera.

Agreed
>I need my gimmicks for it to be good
ask me how I know you like capeshit
no the supernatural ramping up little by little is kino
Shelly and Audrey are supernaturally cute
It's all so uncanny. I loved season 3 but goddamn I want more. Wth happened to Lynch's Wisteria for Netflix?
The dude is almost 80, it's over.
Time to move on.
HE WAS GONNA GO TO THE BAHAMAS
What even are the firemen and why did they want to kill Matthew Lillard?
>firemen
*Woodsmen
*fremen
Seamen.
dune reference dude
isn't this show just a less mainstream X-files?
It's a comfy and bizarre show with horror elements. Seen Blue Velvet? Same vibe.
No, not really. It’s more like the spiritual predecessor to shows like LOST.
No

meaningless fiction
it's pretty meaningful if you ask me
prove it
protipp: you can't
A (you) problem.
He was BOB. That's what he was thinking.

Lynch did absolutely nothing he didn't want to do and you have to be a sheeting moron to believe he would go for woke points.
When did Lynch ever base his film or TV around competent white guys? TPs1 Cooper was a nut job who used dreams and Buddhism to try and solve crime, then tried to crack the black lodge and failed spending 25 years in purgatory

Anybody else love the black lodge in season 3? at first it felt almost too sterile looking, but the digital cameras feel like a perfect match for it.
Albert got a happy ending
what did she mean by this?
She probably told him that Bob and Judy are the evil that men do and thus will never be defeated and will always exist in some form.
There's no way
She probably said something like "The butter is on the third step" lmao
I mean, the first time she whispered in his ear, she told him the identity of her murderer. That was pretty straightforward.
She said "it was all a dream I USED TO READ WORD UP MAGAZINE"
she told Coop he smells like Teen Spirit
Glove man is still the weirdest thing that happened in The Return
He's a direct reference to Jean Cocteau's movie Orpheus
There are a few of those in TP
I thought the interdimensional hobos were kino. I wanted to see more of them and learn their side of the story.
I'm not one for pretentious artsy bullshit but season 3 manages to walk the line between true art and utter shit so well. It's crazy to think this aired on TV. It's so goddamn dense.
There are so many subtle jokes in season 3, It is just packed with constant punchlines that somehow don't interrupt the flow of the show at all.
People are tense, Bradley.
it's the most kino and ambitious tv series of all time and will never be topped.

it was definitely cgi/effects but it was very well done
Slow 30s Room may be my favorite scene in Part 8, I love this little set
So cool I love it too.
Do we know who the woman is?
is this guy the mayor in portlandia?
No that's Paul from Dune

qrd?
why did they bring troonymulder back? I thought Lynch wasn't around for those episodes of season 2?

anon says otherwise

I do like how accidentally spooky Twin Peaks was and that Lynch liked the accidents and doubled down
Bob is in the mirror
people watched this on old tv screens from their couches without a pause button. nobody noticed bob there.
Wtf, you think it was due to popular demand or something, Lynch decided to build off that himself, before this shit was even airing
He repeated this in S3 (camera man in the top left mirror)
I definitely buy this being on purpose, she's watching TV and the theme of at least the first episode of 3 is tv itself as a medium

Is it garmonbozia? or is it a frogmoth?
It's cool and ominous looking, I love that map of Hawk's.
