Re: Part 16 - No knock, no doorbell (SPOILERS)

A minor point, but wondering what people think about this: WHY would Cooper say that he knows that the Mitchum bros have hearts of gold??? As much as I thought the Mitchum brothers were amazing character in this season, how could Coop of all people come to think they have hearts of gold? I mean they...

Re: Part 16 - No knock, no doorbell (SPOILERS)

Holy shit -- my head exploded from Part 16, and is now re-exploding from this amazing stuff that folks here are coming up with. I'm totally not convinced on any of this anagram stuff with Diane's name. BUT, it really seems that Naido is the real Diane that was probably trapped by DoppelCoop. I was s...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

Haven't seen this mentioned: at the beginning of the Sunset Blvd. clip, Norma Desmond mentions "the old team back together again...nothing can stop us!" I presume, combined with the Gordon shoutout, this deliberately teases a reunion between Coop and his former colleagues. And of course t...

Re: Theories & Speculation (SPOILERS)

The stuff with Harry though -- Harry has always been at the top of my list for possible surprise cameos. Both because of the vagueness surrounding Ontkean's involvement with the new series, but also because of how it would fit plot-wise. Surely Harry didn't just sit around for years when his closes...

Re: Theories & Speculation (SPOILERS)

One fairly prominent element of the Twin Peaks mythos that hasn't appeared in The Return is the Bookhouse Boys. I'm guessing they have disbanded, as the police are no longer using civilians as unofficial agents (Big Ed, James, Joey Paulson). If the concept is never referenced again I'll be fine, bu...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

Semi off-topic; but have either of the Woodsmen from FWWM (or maybe more specifically their actors in the role) appeared at all in the new show yet? I went to compare the Woodsman with the electrical device from FWWM/TMP to the one in Part 15 with the device. I couldn't come to a conclusion since t...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

-Dr. Amp and Nadine start dating. I still think something else is up with Dr Amp and he might play a bit more of role in things than just this. He's up in the mountains, and that's where everything is converging. I always felt like he might have some kind of tie to Hastings and the website and that...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

So at this point, with the wrap up of Ed and Norma's story, I am starting to think most of the subplots can easily wrap up in the next episode or two. Or if not, they each can be wrapped up with one scene near the very end, to show things have been made 'right' in Twin Peaks. -Steven I presume is d...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

At first I was hostile to the notion of Shit Dale being Richard's father - precisely because in TPTR, DoppelCoop has always been so purposeful and deliberate in his actions. He doesn't seem to be one who would act out of animal lust; and he didn't seem to have a reason to destroy Audrey. Hell, if s...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

Not true: Dale Cooper showed up in Parts 1-3 (though no dialogue in Part 3). Dale Cooper has been in every single episode. And I'm not talking about the Doppelganger. Yep. I agree. All this talk about what Coop and DoppelCoop are really about has gotten quite interesting. There's stuff here we've b...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

There's a couple of false premises here as far as I am concerned: that the pointing out of parallels always forms part of an interpretive strategy that the assigning of value or significance to these parallels can be understood as suggesting an authorial intent to communicate something to the audie...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

So we have a woodsman that looks like he has recently been bleeding from his mouth and then we have this weird guy in the jail cell. Just a coincidence? Not sure I see the similarty -- but more than that, I really don't see WHY we would or should want to see a similarity. Not to take away from any ...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

Sidebar to your sidebar: it amuses me that the Roadhouse announcer gets more absurdly enthusiastic with every appearance, while announcing local talent, Lissie (who?), and a 35-year-old jukebox selection. Haha -- this for sure. It's especially funny that his first appearance immediately had everyon...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

It's funny that probably the two most successful actors on the show (Tim Roth & Jennifer Jason Leigh) are the worst. I honestly hate both of them now. You hate their acting? Or their characters? Both but especially their acting. The way Jennifer Jason Leigh killed them and then was on the phone...

Re: Part 15 - There's some fear in letting go (SPOILERS)

I took the high school graduate comment literally, as in that was as far as Steven got in life, and maybe he lied to Gersten about either his age or level of education. When he applied to work at the car dealership Mike could tell he loaded his résumé. Jenn (kornishpyxee) I took it differently, as ...
