I find it very distracting. If it's okay on this board though, then please forgive me :D
Personally, it's quoting massive teams of text, just to comment on one sentence that gets me. Especially when it's the very next post.

No offence intended to anyone that does it, but it's a lot easier to read if people cut the quotes down in size.

Not sure if anyone's said this already, but Major Brigg's body being discovered in his 40s made me think--what if the Jeffries we eventually see isn't the age he would naturally be now, but much older, after having spent years in the lodges and emerging back into our world in his past. He could be played by a very old actor, and this would be a way to get around Bowie, assuming that he filmed no footage.

Of course, Jeffries might simply be a black box with lights on it now!

That would leave Johnny or Donna I guess, unless there are more of Ben's illegitimate progeny to be revealed.

I'm thinking Jeffries might be played by a monkey. No joke.

Yes, I can see that! The Judy connection and such.

On another note, I'd really like it if the way James Hurley (and Big Ed) come back into the show is as Bookhouse Boys. I always enjoyed the Bookhouse Boys idea, which was mostly touched upon in the first season as I recall, which I think gives hope for it being resurrected in this season. I believe James Marshall said his role was smallish but significant, and this could be a way for that to play out.

If the next episode is being shown at Comic Con, is it likely there will be leaked footage or spoilers?
I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.

https://www.reddit.com/r/twinpeaks/comm ... h=8fa1d97a

There is a screenshot of a secret message which reads 'HELLO ANONYMOUS. TO GET TO LEVEL THREE YOU MUST FIND THE BOOK OF THE KEY AND THE LOCK'

The user said that it was accessed by refreshing the browser 119 times but no one has thus far been able to replicate it.

Just a hoax? It is this legit?
Looks like Bull**** at this point.

I started watching season one from the beginning and I am more and more appreciative of Lynch's creative genius. He may have spent a lot of time flying by the seat of his pants with Twin Peaks, but he gives himself so many opportunities to tie it all together that it beggars belief.

Here's what James says about Laura in the Pilot episode:

Re: Philip Jeffries being aged and played by a different actor

It would also make sense within Twin Peaks internal logic to have Philip Jeffries just be played by a little monkey, like the one that uttered "Judy" in his voice at the end of FWWM. If The Arm can evolve, then maybe Jeffries can devolve.

EDIT: Also this might be far fetched, but they could put the jumping man's mask on some other actor wearing Jeffries' white suit, and string together his dialogue based on random words and phrases spoken by Bowie during his recording and acting career. Lynch could even put a backwards/forwards Lodge effect on it for added effect.

I may have missed this discussed on the forum, but what about part 11 being shown early at SDCC? Will the part 11 thread be opened before Sunday?
