Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
So we don't care if Lynch doesn't give a damn about continuity because he is a God among us but if Frost includes some discrepancies in his book, then he's sloppy and lazy. Sigh. I (who sorta started this avalanche of "negativity", as some of you guys must call it) never said that! On the...

Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
I get that everyone might be frustrated with some of the changes. All I'm saying is that we should reconcile with the idea of some retconing, other than attacking Frost and calling him lazy and sloppy. All this is surely intentional. It's his right to change some things he doesn't like and it's our...

LonelySoul, I see we were following a well-nigh identical train of thought (and typing it at about the same time,too)!

Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
Why some people have such hard time to reconcile with a small retconing to an arguably weaker part of the series? Frost isn't a moron who forgot all about it or too lazy to look those things up. It's clear as the sky that after more than two decades and ahead of the new series, he was comfortable t...

Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
How about "original showrunner should at least get his facts straight before embarking on creating another dosage of HIS property" kind of extreme? Other than that, I recall precious little fan responses of the "meh" variety when the return of the series was announced two years ...

Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
Yeah, I enjoy The X-Files for the silly, messy show it is but Chris Carter's bizarre too-much-Alex-Jones ultra-retcon for his entire series' mythos in the new revival was deeply embarrassing. Nothing in the book approaches that. So your (and other's) reports about these discrepancies have been fals...

Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
Why don't you actually read it and then engage in overheated melodrama about whether it is yet another Best or Worst Thing to Happen to Twin Peaks? So your (and other's) reports about these discrepancies have been false, have they? Just to see how much "melodrama" you can stir up, I guess...

Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
The tie-ins have always been somewhat sloppy on these points, though. Always. It's something that happened. It's also a great book. It's not worth losing my shit over. "Somewhat"? From what I gather from you guys who've read it/are reading it, it's all over the place ... And you saying &q...

Re: SPOILERS: The Secret History of Twin Peaks
Well, if that's gonna be the case, then the guys shouldn't've made a big deal out of season 3 (or whatever we're gettin', anyway) being a CONTINUATION of what went on before. And they sort of did, back when the Showtime announcement was made. Some of us have lived with this thing for 25 years and do...

Re: NON SPOILERS: Twin Peaks: Season 3 on Showtime Thread
Fright, one could also look at it that Cooper knew Audrey for nine months or so because it was a weekly television show in terms of how the audience grows attached to the characters and invested in plots. And in terms of the OEJs rescue being already done... That is true. But then again Peaks kept ...

Re: NON SPOILERS: Twin Peaks: Season 3 on Showtime Thread
In the end they wanted Cooper to end up in the lodge trying to safe someone he loves and failing to do so - again. I can easily picture this person being Audrey instead of Annie. Even if their relationship always stayed in the realm of platonic, flirtatious friendship. It would have felt more organ...

Re: NON SPOILERS: Twin Peaks: Season 3 on Showtime Thread
I don't think Kyle regrets his decision. He seems unconfortable discussing it because he knows most fans are very sensitive about it. I guess at the time he would never guess there was going to be so much backlash just because they've dropped a romance. And throwing all the blame on LFB also leaves...
