Re: Twin Peaks: The Missing Pieces - analysis/thoughts etc
Am reading through this whole fascinating thread. Is this just to discuss the cut scenes? Or anything and everything on the Blu-Ray? Does anybody know of a thread on here discussing the interview with the Palmer family? If there is one, apologies, I've missed it. I saw the interview with Leland firs...

Re: The Laura Palmer Project
IF you haven't seen The Sweet Hereafter, I implore you to seek it out immediately and watch it. It is so beautifully shot, it is an unforgettable movie...and, like Twin Peaks, it's a town ripe with secrets. Such a great film... Rocketsan22 and LostInTheMovies, yes, The Sweet Hereafter is a great fi...

Re: What if the mystery had never been solved?
Looking at the words now, they seem more neutral to me than what I remember from that scene. Now I see that her words could be interpreted in two ways. First, that Margaret is warning Laura that the path she is walking down is into blackness (presumably Margaret doesn't know that by this point Laur...

Re: What if the mystery had never been solved?
Yes, I agree with this. FWWM does make it clear that Leland has culpability but I could never accept that it was all Leland and BOB is just a metaphor. Leland acts so differently when he is under BOB's influence that not he would have to have had a multiple personality disorder to explain such mass...

Re: What if the mystery had never been solved?
Personally, I find Leland's death episode more disappointing, though I agree there should have been more of an aftershock. But that episode is supposed to be one of the great ones, and each time I watch the series it seems worse. "BOB"'s cheesy Michael Bay villain posturing..."they m...

Re: The Laura Palmer Project
Does that picture coincide with the show or the film? It was in the series. Ben Horne had it on his desk. See episode 14 when he admits he loved Laura... I love that scene. He had been so cold and had never really indicated an interest in anything other than money or hedonism up to that point, not ...

Re: The Laura Palmer Project
Does anybody else really like this photo? Her expression says so much to me about what is going on inside. Indeed. You see sorrow in her right eye, seduction in the left (which she is pushing toward the camera)... and her whole countenance is distancing and defiant. I love that description. You art...

Re: The Laura Palmer Project
I absolutely love one of the framed photos of Laura. Not the prom queen one. It's a photo where she's not smiling but has this incredible look of tortured defiance on her face. I wonder if it will be immediately obvious just from that brief description which one I mean? This one? Correct!!! Does an...

Re: The Laura Palmer Project
I saw Exotica and enjoyed it very much but I had never made a mental link with Twin Peaks. I do understand what you mean though. Laura Palmer is my favourite character in any work. It's an interesting point that Laura is a complete wreck in the last 7 days. Of course, she had to be, given how quickl...

Re: What if the mystery had never been solved?
I agree with the people who posted that the culprit needed to be revealed. While it sounds interesting to stretch it out as a kind of MacGuffin, "The Fugitive" style, I think ultimately it would have been a bad idea. This has just come up on another thread, but I also feel like Lynch's co...

Re: The Pilot
I agree (as is usually the case) with LostInTheMovies. The tone of the pilot was very different to both the movie and the series. I'd always attributed that to the fact that the pilot was filmed on location. I still think that's a big part of it but LostInTheMovies identified some other reasons that...

Re: Episode 17
I think this is my least favourite episode of the series, mainly because of how unemotional the wake is and how easily everyone has moved on from not only the mystery of who murdered Laura but also the revelation that Leland did it, and far worse as well. Such a terrible waste of material, especial...

Re: What if the mystery had never been solved?
Yeah, it's like, really? We barely get to see how the town reacts to the fact that one of their most upstanding citizens was a child molester and serial killer! We never see Bobby have a moment like, OH that's why Laura was so fucked up. Or James. Or his former business partner Ben Horne, except fo...
