It also appears in part 3. The blind woman pulls a switch on it and falls in to space.Voided wrote:I just wanted to point out that the giant bell in this episode reminded me of the close up shot of the bell in Philadelphia, which appears in Fire Walk With Me. Probably irrelevant, but I did always wonder why the camera paused on that shot for so long. Probably just an establishing shot to introduce the new location.
The new show used the Eakins Oval statue of Washington similarly, to establish Philly (and also had a shot of the statue on the wall in Tammy's office). I think they're both probably icons/associations that DKL has from his time in the city. But the bell models in the Lodge/spirit world certainly might have stemmed from the Liberty Bell, consciously or unconsciously.Voided wrote:I just wanted to point out that the giant bell in this episode reminded me of the close up shot of the bell in Philadelphia, which appears in Fire Walk With Me.

I thought I was the only one who noticed that it had a beak. Everyone mentions its frog and bug attributes, but it has a face like a bird!Mr. Reindeer wrote:Surprised no one has yet posited that the frog-bug is a form of the Jumping Man. The beak seems pretty deliberate, and those legs sure look made for jumping.
The beak seems VERY Jumping Man to me.misterroundheels wrote:I thought I was the only one who noticed that it had a beak.

I had the same thought. The Tremond/Chalfont boy also jumps, and is also at the convenience store meeting.Mr. Reindeer wrote:Surprised no one has yet posited that the frog-bug is a form of the Jumping Man. The beak seems pretty deliberate, and those legs sure look made for jumping.
It's probably been mentioned before, but the Chalfont boy is probably "in-training" for whatever it is the Jumping Man's role is, or he's another in his "line." Really wondering about the bug frog now, I totally didn't catch the face similarity!Hurley wrote:I had the same thought.

Now that the Convenience Store has found its way into the Return, follow-up on its depiction in FWWM has become really desirable. We've had woodsmen, we've had Bob of course, and now there's the possibility that the Jumping Man is back, albeit as a beaked flying frog thing. Most of the woodsmen we got seemed similar to Prochnow and Brisbin's, with long full beards, an obvious exception being the Lincoln impersonator -- Lincoln-bearded by definition. Is he perhaps unique among them, perhaps a chief of sorts? And are there yet any possible candidates for the Electrician in the new series? Is he present on a purely auditory level, as the intense crackling noises we're hearing? In any case I would really love to see the Tremonds and the Electrician represented in some form. It's like a very strange family reunion.SpookyDollhouse wrote:It's probably been mentioned before, but the Chalfont boy is probably "in-training" for whatever it is the Jumping Man's role is, or he's another in his "line."

All these things everybody's catching days after is so cool.
I can see DoppelCoop planning his death. Maybe he wanted to be rid of Bob. Is he preparing for the showdown with Good Coop? The woodsmen resurrection scene was super creepy. The music and the way the woodsmen moved and we're transparent. They reminded me of the Little People from the novel 1Q84 by Murakami. For all you readers out there.AgentEcho wrote:I haven't seen anyone theorize that Doppelganger knew what Ray was up to and let it happen for some purpose. He almost seemed clairvoyant in being two steps ahead of everyone, and suddenly someone gets the drop on him rather unceremoniously. Also he's ready to shoot Ray even though he wants information from him, which doesn't exactly make sense (granted, neither did that whole tracker on the car app thing earlier). Maybe he knew he'd get help if he was shot?
One thing about the NIN scene... that was the only scene in the episode that took place in Twin Peaks. I'm not sure I'm thrilled by the prospect of their being more non credit music sequences at the Roadhouse, but I doubt there will be any more episodes where the only scene taking place in Twin Peaks will be a Roadhouse musical interlude.
Wow, what a swell guy he is!Mr. Reindeer wrote:Interview with the lead Woodsman:
