Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

How did Bob get back in Mr. C? Did the Woodsmen put him back, and if so, why did they take him out in the first place? It's obviously open to interpretation, but my interpretation is the woodsman revive Mr. C but they have nothing to do with whether Bob leaves or stays. I took it that in episode 8 ...

Re: Dougie Milford, Dougie Jones

I wonder if Mark even remembered Dougie Milford existed when they first used the name in the new script. I'm sure he did remember. Based on this Q & A I suspect Milford would have been featured in an important way in Season 3 if the original show hadn't been cancelled: https://io9.gizmodo.com/a...

Re: Part 18 - What is your name? (SPOILERS)

I'm not expecting The Final Dossier to reveal anything at all, for some reason. Does anyone else feel that way? In principle, it could totally explain whatever Briggs was doing, and also set up the plan that Cooper/Jeffries/Briggs were working on, and that could reveal more about the finale. But I ...

Re: "I mean it like it sounds, like it is."

In the orig when Mike says "They live above a convenience store, I mean it like it sounds, like it is", the inference, to me anyway, was something along the following: Cooper, people are seeing things, having weird dreams, you are suspecting strange even supernatural things may be afoot a...

Lynch confirms that Freddie was his idea: http://ew.com/tv/2017/09/15/david-lynch-twin-peaks-finale/ Proving once and for all you don't have to have written a superhero movie in order to conceive of a quirky vaguely-spoofish superhero character backstory.

Re: Mark Frost's Contributions to TP:TR (Speculation)

I saw a comment online that episode 17 was Mark Frost's ending to Twin Peaks and episode 18 was David Lynch's ending to Twin Peaks. This seems to make sense. Episode 18 is very similar to Lost Highway, which is the "pure heroin" Lynch. Characters turning into other characters for no discer...

Re: "Do your palms ever itch?" All things Audrey

Expectations subverted again! The question is why she and the Arm both say the exact say thing about the girl who lives down the lane. Thoughts? I don't think there's really an answer. But I think the little girl who lives down the lane could be either Laura Palmer or Audrey, they've become David L...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

That covers the first book but it doesn't the Final Dossier. In any case there's not much of an argument to stick to without knowing the contents of the yet to be released book. I'm pretty sure the Final Dossier came about because Frost realized fairly quickly that his hands were tied on the Secret...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

So according to Sabrina Sutherland on the reddit AMA, almost everything that was shot appeared in the final cut. And Lynch added material during filming, that was run past Frost who could say yes or no (and apparently always said yes). That explains a lot. Regardless of Frost's input on TPTR, it's ...

Re: Ronette and American Girl

Although Phoebe A played 'American Girl' there's nothing in the plot that suggested she was actually Ronette. Now that Naido has been revealed as Diane does this change things at all? There is the suggestion that BadCoop must have killed the 'real' Diane or at least taken her to the Red Room (and b...

Re: Mark Frost's Contributions to TP:TR (Speculation)

I just read that quote from Sabrina Sutherland. Every single source beyond speculation seems to put Frost in the backseat of the creative process on Season 3. He doesn't change a thing that David puts in seems obvious who was in the driver's seat the whole time. Nonsense. If Frost liked what Lynch ...
