Talking about Josie and Ronette is why the thread exists in the first place. Unlike Teresa, Ronette and Josie were pivotal to Twin Peaks from the start. Unlike Teresa, they were close acquaintances of Laura but- just like Teresa- and much less understandably given their central importance to the st...

I think within the world of the film, it's the realization that she is a person with agency, and not just a possession of her father/whatever demons prevail over her. She has learned very early in life that the pleasant surface of things is a facade, but in the final days of her life she learns tha...

So then, in the final version of the film where Teresa's ring has been seemingly elevated to cosmic significance, what does the Ring have to do with representing Laura's recognition that she is a person with agency and her attainment of a higher level of consciousness? The significance of the ring i...

(This topic began on another, unrelated thread but has been moved here for independent focus.) I know most people see her as choosing death in the end. I did for a while too but I don't anymore. I think Bob chooses death (for her), because of a choice she makes for something else. I think the signi...

he's saying "ayudame".

Well the closed caption subtitles for that scene show him saying, "Are you the man?!"

As we await news, I'm curious to hear others' take on the Lynch/Frost collaboration specifically in regards to mythology. I know I've posted these thoughts elsewhere, but I felt like cleaning it up a little and reposting it here where it belongs, see if it can help any further discussion. Thinking ...

But suddenly in Episode 16, people start chewing gum. I like the original line, but I don't like the way they forced it into being THE CLUE.

I would love to see a source on that. If that's true it would be huge for those of us trying to figure out how it got hammered out.

At the end of the first season finale, Cooper receives a message from Audrey (the card telling him that she's gone to One Eyed Jack's), which he promptly puts on table when the phone rings (Andy's call). When season two starts, the card was magically under his bed. Well with that one, you know, And...

Hmm had more thoughts after I already posted. Oh well, I'll just increase that post count :D It's like, can you imagine if the Mulholland Drive pilot got picked up for a television series? Though, presumably, Lynch would have learned his lessons from his heartbreak over Twin Peaks , if other writers...

And, though it's been said before, these thoughts just make me so intrigued, excited and curious about what in the world a much stronger, focused, lasting collaboration between Frost and Lynch will do with the established mythology in the new 2016 series. How it will be utilized, how it will be expa...

I'm having some thoughts, which I will try to make sense of here. Thinking more about what we now know as the Twin Peaks mythology, it occurs to me that I really do have to appreciate Frost's work on that and, to a lesser extent, Peyton and Engels (except for the overly literal ideas which I think w...

Knowing that after this episode, Twin Peaks went off the air for a while and might not have come back (can you imagine Josie in the drawer pull as the LAST SCENE of the whole series?), I have always wondered whether or not the production team knew this might, indeed, be the last one. And if that mot...

"Have you got a nickle?" SUCH a curious line. My only suggestion is that perhaps one or both of these cultural oddities had been lodged in Lynch or Frost's subconscious: https://youtu.be/MEekqbdQJeg https://youtu.be/EkcieWccaAA Oh. My. God. The song was excruciating and I skipped around t...

It would have been great to see the full alternate ending as a dream sequence in a feature length Episode 2, BUT something would have had to be done about Frank Silva's singing. It is so awful and, I think, really would have ruined the terror that his image was able to evoke throughout so many of hi...
