Re: Mark Frost AMA on Reddit 11/8 @ 10 AM Pacific

Got my question answered. Maddy is presumed alive in the new timeline and Ronette was brought to the traincar without Leland's involvement because Leo and Jacques were stupid and impulsive...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

Also I might have enjoyed the farcical way episode 17 resolved the main plot if it had happened much earlier. Can you imagine a version of the Return where the first 4 episodes happen, and then maybe we spend an entire episode or two with Dougie coop where at the end he shocks himself back into bein...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

Well, I can only speak for myself, but I was thoroughly engaged as a viewer all the way through. I felt like the stakes were high, but I understand why most viewers had a hard time with it: the plot was highly complex and so it was hard at times to define what The Return was really about. In fact, ...

Re: What Did Laura Whisper?

There was a Reddit thread that isolated and adjusted the sounds from the scene in episode 2 and came up with:

"Don't assume, nobody can spot your dark suit but me."

Re: FINAL POLL!!!!!!! Your Reaction to The Return as a Complete Work

I guess it was kind of the same with the original series though. We knew Windom Earle was seeking access to the Black Lodge but it was never revealed what he specifically planned to do once he gained access beyond vague fears of Earle having access to a great source of power. Both of these plots wo...

Re: FINAL POLL!!!!!!! Your Reaction to The Return as a Complete Work

Heavily mixed, leaning towards dislike. Possibly even hate. I had so much fun running home on Sunday nights and watching it. The sound, the mood, everything was so so good. As messy as the occasional episode was we'd rewatch them the next evening and soak it in. Such a glorious addition to the summ...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

As much as I love "coffee and pie" Twin Peaks, it wasn't what I expected or wanted from The Return. After the s2 finale and Fire Walk With Me, a dive into the more supernatural side of Twin Peaks seemed like a natural progression. All of my problems stem from storytelling and execution and...

Re: Recut of TPTR

Skip Freddie. Let James get the vision, but not the hand. Have the Fireman instill knowledge to him that he shares with Bobby while jailed (yes, he still goes to jail). They then hold a meeting that involves Hawk, James, Bobby, Truman, and Andy. Can't quite thing of what they would do, but it would...

Re: Recut of TPTR

As someone who hated the confrontation between Freddie and BOB, I was trying to think of what I would do if I were to try and make a fanedit. One idea was when the BOBorb descends upon Freddie the first time, cut to Cooper putting the ring on Mr C, as if he's using Freddie as a distraction. Mr C's b...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

That covers the first book but it doesn't the Final Dossier. In any case there's not much of an argument to stick to without knowing the contents of the yet to be released book. I'm pretty sure the Final Dossier came about because Frost realized fairly quickly that his hands were tied on the Secret...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

In the case of the Star Wars franchise, Lucas had expended all his good will on the terrible prequels. I guess if Lynch had made an equally terrible entry in the form of Fire Walk With Me (which I consider to be a masterpiece), then I would be more open to the idea of wresting control from Lynch and...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

I think I'm finally coming to terms with the fact that I am profoundly disappointed. I've been withholding judgement until I saw the completed run, because although the Return hasn't resonated with me emotionally, there have been plenty of scenes that had interesting setups. There's still material t...

Re: Part 18 - What is your name? (SPOILERS)

I think I would have been fine with Freddy if his role was just to take out Chad. But the fight against the BOB orb was too much for me. My thoughts on pt. 17 & pt. 18: http://www.lostinthemovies.com/2017/09/twin-peaks-return-parts-17-18-past.html Silly comparison, but it was almost like how Bac...

Re: Part 18 - What is your name? (SPOILERS)

for me, episode 17 was the one that had my heart sinking into the ground.. loved the first part of it but the battle of Nitnendo Boss BOB and Green Glove fuck was saddening and gave me trouble in continuing watching without hating the rest of it. luckily i was able to let go and just let the series...
