Twin Peaks: Classic or Dud?

well it's terrifying b/c lynch is just so good at terrifying. but i've seen stuff that /strives/ to be just as graphic and visceral on network TV.

yeah a lot of it has to do with context and the framing and the way it's shot, obviously it's not particularly gory or sexy

lol def thought that was an official poster, if it's not it should be

would be perfect without the "25 years later"

why is the poster upside down? aside from trying hard to look arty.

yeah i actually think that poster kind of bites tbh

fan made tho so whatevs

On what you can do on networks today: Hannibal was a network show for three seasons...

Lynch's horror isn't based on gore or standard violence, his most effectively terrifying moments have little to no gore. Think the man behind the cafe. Or Bob peering over the edge of the bed. Or evil Laura screaming/shrieking in that final episode.

monster faced Laura Dern at the end of Inland Empire still haunts me and that's just some dumb video composite

Aside from general consideration of it all after watching fwwm this week ive also realised that this may be the most incredible looking cast ever assembled

otm

Straight-up looking forward to this. That poster just doesn't seem right - doesn't feel pulled together.

I'm rewatching and noticed BOB in the background of the episode where Audrey is back from One-Eyed Jack's. Creepy!

oh no way, never noticed that before

Whoa, that's an amazing catch.

that's... not Bob?

Bob wears a denim jacket

The second scene with Audrey at the Great Northern, from the same episode:

Looks less like BOB there.

But anyway, in both of her scenes from the episode, someone lurks out of focus in the background and whom nobody interacts with, so denim jacket or no...

And this is the same episode where MIKE says that BOB is currently at the Great Northern!

looks like a girl to me - also that scene's not at the Great Northern iirc? and MIKE is referring to Leland meeting with Ben Horne.

I thought Dale brought Audrey back to the GN after the One-Eyed Jacks rescue? I mean, in the scene with Ben, they're talking about taking her home, so she isn't recovering at home.

Yep, that looks like it is in the Bookhouse and the guy in the background is one of the Bookhouse Boys.

ah yeah that seems right, the bookhouse boy who is a long-haired biker kid

It is Joey Paulson as played by Brett Vadset.

This guy? http://twinpeaks.wikia.com/wiki/Joey_Paulson

It does say that his last episode is "Demons." xp

I thought Dale brought Audrey back to the GN after the One-Eyed Jacks rescue? I mean, in the scene with Ben, they're talking about taking her home, so she isn't recovering at home.

The Great Northern IS Audrey's home.

yeah that's joey paulson, one of the bookhouse boys.

Yeah, I just rewatched it, and the establishing shot before we see Cooper and Audrey is of the Bookhouse.

Maybe it was a predator?

Bob is in the background of every scene

I had no idea that Bob was also riding Joey Paulson. Wheels within wheels.

Yikes. Anderson has made erratic, even anti-semitic, remarks online before, so this isn't totally surprising, but this is really ugly and sad.

wow bob wow

has anyone read Jennifer Lynch's " The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer "?

Yeah, it's surprisingly good

ows otm, this guy is clearly imploding and social media is not helping. Wonder if the Jewish conspiracy had anything to do with Jack Nance's death?

Secret diary is great.

Wonder if the Jewish conspiracy had anything to do with Jack Nance's death?

I thought that was the "best friend" that Anderson's implying Lynch had killed?

this is from a year ago

The profile photo is, but Anderson edited the description to make those accusations a couple of days ago. He's been openly hostile toward Lynch for not including him in Season 3 for a while now.

ah...yeah. he's become a crazy creep

I thought that was the "best friend" that Anderson's implying Lynch had killed?

it is, yeah

I don't really wonder that about the Jewish conspiracy btw

Was really not expecting a random snippet of twin peaks dialogue accompanying a shot of Christian bale driving in the new malick film

excited

“I’m definitely open,” Nevins said. “Everything about Twin Peaks is going to be unconventional. Unconventional in the handling of it and how we put it out in the world and how we market it. I want to really embrace the unusualness of it. I think it is quite possible we’re not going to do a traditional release pattern. I don’t know exactly what that means yet. I’ve had a couple conversations with David but I want to embrace the unexpectedness of it. I could definitely see longer episodes or this question of how do we release it linearly and how do we release it for people who want to stream it. There may be some difference between the two. There’s all sorts of possibilities.”

wow

Makes me think that if Mulholland Drive was to be released today it could have definitely existed in the original serialized TV episodic version that Lynch imagined.

I have a frankly unreasonable level of confidence that this will be awesome

Maybe it's a failure of imagination on my part tho but I can't see what this innovative release method could practically amount to other than "pay twice for different versions" gimmickry. Letting lynch determine individual episode lengths is a good move, although I'm sure many would disagree

as long as you're prepared for a 7-hour episode
