That was excruciating.

Why?

It felt evil, I don't know. The Coop scene in Judy's cafe, too.

the sex scene gave me SERIOUS club silencio vibes.

Did I catch this right? The Experiment, also known as Mother, was christened Jao Dai (spelling TBD), and that somehow became the code name "Judy"?

Wait what? That was Episode 18...

Quick Thoughts on Part 17 -

Pretty good.

I thought the Bob battle was a bit cheesy and OTT.

I liked much of the rest of it.

The Laura retconning intrigues me as a writer. I think it would have been more touching and powerful had it not been for that hideous wig. People complained about the wig in FWMM, but it's nothing compared to this one. It was just awful. But I like the idea here overall - Cooper stepping into the past to save Laura the night she was going to be murdered. I think this was an idea that probably looked better on paper - and even though retconning (especially to this extreme) is always controversial - I was intrigued by all of this.

Disappointing that we got so little of Julee Cruise. They played full songs for the others but here we only got a brief snippet.

Too many posts spoiling part 18 in here it seems... Please, mods. Be quick.

About pt. 17, I literally had GOOSEBUMPS for the whole hour. And that SONG. WOW. Can't really say more, I'm STUNNED. Crazy, sad, beautiful, surprising, etc etc etc.
Lynch has definitely done it again.

I'll probably wait until tomorrow to watch pt. 18 though. I'm having a hard time watching it just like that, feels like wasting it. I know I'm gonna feel all empty when it dawns on me that there won't be any more. Phew...

WHAT A RIDE.

some of us have only seen 17 parts and are coming to this yrev very thread to discuss.

thanks a bunch.

I bet this thread is going to get neglected, but there was some amazing and spellbinding stuff in Part 17. Honestly if this had been the end of it, it might have been even less perplexing.

The incorporation of secret FWWM footage was pretty mind blowing, as was whatever was going on in that walk in the woods. Old footage? CGI new footage? I couldn't tell if it was old or young Cooper with a lot of it.

Yup, totally so.

I'm not even sure if that's Sheryl Lee or another certain actress NOT listed in the credits. Anything is possible.

Edited!

Probably prudent for anybody who has seen both 17 and 18 to just post in the 18 thread. I watched them both and really can't remember where one ended and the other began.

I can't believe they didn't write Julee a new song to sing.

All the questions that arose later dwarfed this question in my mind but still... why was something as important as the destruction of Bob (if that's what we saw) placed in the hands of a character we barely knew?

I feel like Freddie's destiny involved fending off BOB (I don't think he was truly destroyed) thus saving the lives of everyone in the station.

How the hell did Lynch do the young Laura following coop scenes? CGI? Fucking insane.

I'm pretty sure in the woods is new footage with Sheryl Lee in a wig dressed as young Laura.
