This is like a bad meme. "No problem watching a show with magical floating dimes, logs that talk, or FBI agents that float out from power sockets. But can't believe it's the same bathroom." That's not it. We know about the weird stuff, but we also know the meticulous attention to detail i...

I don't agree with that Slate review. If you've read a lot of books about the illuminati and Freemasons I can see that the book may be boring, if you've read conspiracy theory books about Sasquatch sightings and UFOology and such I can see how the Frost book may seem unoriginal, but that genre is fr...

Pretty sure that silver standard interpretation of Wizard of OZ is controversial not an established " fact". ( Look up the Straight Dope article on it to read more) Maybe in a 100 years people on the Internet will "prove" Twin Peaks is a parable about the federal researve board p...

It's about a woman who is part of a line of clones. It's true that the lead actress has a tougher job and is more impressive since she rises to it.

I'm surprised some people think the pink ladies are spirits. It seemed to me that scene was just Lynch repeating his schtick from Blue Velvet with Jeffrey getting beaten up while a woman dances on a car in the background . No lodge spirits just goofy gangsters and weird women. I didn't even notice a...

(I refuse to acknowledge that she could be brilliant, because she really shoulda, you know, read the whole text through to see if the Archivist flat-out revealed his own identity, Eh, I think that's just a narrative device. It prevents her from "spoiling" the book for the reader. There's ...

I like Jacoby a lot. I like that there's this wacky guy keyed into the counter culture of the 60s and 70s. Having sex with Laura though was very much not okay. Did Jacoby have sex with Laura? I don't remember that ever having happened. I thought that was why he lost his medical license? Maybe I'm m...

I just don't understand the people who act like Preston came across as some super-competent / brilliant agent in the book. She didn't do any detective work at all! Agreed. It's been a while since I've read the book, but I remember thinking she added almost zero insight Given the format of the book ...

Jacoby went from being a guy who was a positive influence on people's lives, a piece of charming eccentricity in a charmingly eccentric town, to a negative influence on the very people he used to heal and help. Jacoby is supposed to be be a bizarre hippy psychiatrist. Per Secret History of Twin Pea...

You realize Star Wars is for all intensive purposes a truly independent film much like Eraserhead or Clerks. Maybe the first film, but calling the prequels "independent" films is pretty silly. Selling Star Wars toys has been big business since the first film: Between 1977 and 1978, Star W...

Great theory but what does it have to do with being a native American?

but the dude is trying to tell the fall of a democracy into a fascist Empire by turning disillusioned people mainly a youth to the dark side. I don't know what Lucas's intent was, but there's significant evidence he was very, very goal oriented towards selling video games and kid's action figures a...

Anyone else think Cooper after he returned to earth was acting a lot like John From Cincinnati from that failed HBO show? I was reminded of it. In that show John is some sort of otherworldly being that imitates other humans and they project whatever they expect from him onto him, and John's behavior...

I thought the Casino was going to accuse Cooper of cheating somehow, and that would be what they were thinking about rather than him being senile. I guess in real life they'd suspect cheating-- perhaps some sort of device to distort the machine's functioning-- but maybe in Twin Peak's world they've ...

Hello guys. In the beginning i thought Coop was "ill" cause of the 25 years spent in the lodge. But then i re watched and I've seen that in the lodge he's "fine" (fine is a euphemism. I know.). I mean, he was totally able to interact and understand. He also talked, as if he was ...
