the question that keeps me coming back is, when will richard horne get supermurdered
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Monday, 17 July 2017 03:40 (six years ago) link
I know this is weird but I thought Rebekah del Rio was Sherilyn Fenn
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Monday, 17 July 2017 04:04 (six years ago) link
That certainly is weird.
AA, you are OTM re: Clockwork Orange parallels in Richard's home invasion. I was thinking the same thing. Can't wait until he's ultramegahellamurdered.

Rebekah Del Rio!!!! That song was really beautiful, written by Lynch and Neff. I was hLf expecting her to collapse and for the song to continue playing nonetheless.
This was great. Mr. C in the penthouse!

I did not realize that Moby was playing in that band. Just...what.
So! What the eff was up with Gordon seeing Laura when Albert showed up?!?!
― Dippin' Sauce on my Nice New Slacks (Old Lunch), Monday, 17 July 2017 04:24 (six years ago) link
This one was the biggest bummer so far. Richard and his Satanic evil amplify the already extreme brute, pulp violence that Lynch favors but that is one of my least favorite aspects of his work.
― Chris L, Monday, 17 July 2017 04:25 (six years ago) link
The other musicians weren't credited? I take it one was John Neff?
― I'm make-believe. (jed_), Monday, 17 July 2017 04:25 (six years ago) link
A+ episode. I felt like this one really nailed the old Twin Peaks vibe of combining dark brutality with lots of oddly humorous scenes.
― Moodles, Monday, 17 July 2017 04:31 (six years ago) link
i got clockwork vibes as well but Lynch referencing Kubrick seems unintentional to me
― Paisley Window Pane (Ross), Monday, 17 July 2017 04:45 (six years ago) link
"is everyone just pretending moby wasn't playing in that band"
yeah I wasn't really looking at the band here
― akm, Monday, 17 July 2017 04:54 (six years ago) link
Also that Laura clip was kind of weird
― akm, Monday, 17 July 2017 05:17 (six years ago) link
So Richard Horne has to be Audrey's son, right?
― The Marmadook (latebloomer), Monday, 17 July 2017 05:17 (six years ago) link
Also I'm very curious as to whom EvilCoop was talking to in that photo.
― The Marmadook (latebloomer), Monday, 17 July 2017 05:18 (six years ago) link
moby

unless johnny somehow had a kid there's no other explanation. pretty sure the secret history mentions something about there only being johnny and audrey in the horne family. together with doc hayward's comment about bad coop "visiting" audrey in hospital 25 years ago, it's all pointing to richard being the demon spawn of bad coop (most likely BOB) and audrey.

the show is slowly but firmly moving from series-of-mysteries to series-of-facts, even with new mysteries being thrown on the pile ever so often (e.g. the log lady's brand new stream of riddles)
― blink truther (Autumn Almanac), Monday, 17 July 2017 05:26 (six years ago) link
*every so often
This was one of the more succinct and straightforward episodes so far.
― akm, Monday, 17 July 2017 05:27 (six years ago) link
log lady scenes hit me hard
― Paisley Window Pane (Ross), Monday, 17 July 2017 05:28 (six years ago) link
I thought this episode was spectacular and quite relentless; it also felt the most like the old Twin Peaks so far (with dread arising both from the various instances of violence and from Laura appearing outside Gordon's room and then Tammy arriving in portentous slow motion). It also struck me as one of the more ~problematic~ ones in its depiction of women so far.
― Dancing on the Pylons, Monday, 17 July 2017 05:36 (six years ago) link
Good episode but...
#1: I heard a few moments of Auto-Tune on Rebekah Del Rio, was there someone in the band live processing (or using a vocoder)?
#2: Not sure I buy into Dr. Jacoby morphing from a chill aloha-bro who loves golf to this piss and vinegar Howard Beale... without some sort of back-story or prompting at least.
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Monday, 17 July 2017 05:54 (six years ago) link
There was def autotune, I think she was just miming in classic twin peaks/mulholland dr fashion
― blog haus aka the scene raver (wins), Monday, 17 July 2017 05:56 (six years ago) link
Although voices & instruments being processed as if by magic is an established thing in this world, if you think back to one of the greatest scenes in the original (James singing in the living room)
― blog haus aka the scene raver (wins), Monday, 17 July 2017 05:59 (six years ago) link
Dancing OTM with the problematic depiction of women in this ep
― Paisley Window Pane (Ross), Monday, 17 July 2017 06:02 (six years ago) link
I heard directly from David Lynch that the final episode of Twin Peaks will be all Moby

i always think "i bet that's the last time i'll ever think about moby", and then about a year later, there he is again
― Karl Malone, Monday, 17 July 2017 06:17 (six years ago) link
I clocked all the dudes in her band but they just looked like dudes in a band, then I saw the moby credit as "musician" and I was like I bet he was one of those dudes but I couldn't tell you which one
― blog haus aka the scene raver (wins), Monday, 17 July 2017 06:24 (six years ago) link
the bald white guy with the glasses, or maybe the other bald white guy with the glasses
― blink truther (Autumn Almanac), Monday, 17 July 2017 06:27 (six years ago) link
the one playing guitar
(sussed by a bald dude who has worn glasses)

Only one woman for the job imo - filicide, baby!
Killing Miriam, choking his grandma & then calling her a cunt, threatening to rape his mentally ill uncle: hate to say it but this guy was more sympathetic when he was flattening that kid. Conversely belushi's menace dissipated as soon as he had more than a few lines.
As fun as Albert on a date & other light relief is, once again what saves this from being just oppressively bleak is Carl & Margaret's rueful empathy; that roadhouse performance was only missing an ancient waiter saying "I'm so sorry" to a crying Bobby
― blog haus aka the scene raver (wins), Monday, 17 July 2017 08:03 (six years ago) link
Maybe i was just feeling cranky by then because this episode was a big let down for me, but man I did not enjoy that rebekah del rio song at all. It was way too oversung with nothing interesting going on there. I kept waiting for sky ferreira's character to come back but i was disappointed.
In contrast, that little bit with carl singing on his guitar was such a charming offhand moment.
― josh az (2011nostalgia), Monday, 17 July 2017 08:30 (six years ago) link
Loved the R. Del Rio song. She also sang the song in Mulholland Dr., the one where the performer falls down and the singing continues.
― Einstein, Kazanga, Sitar (abanana), Monday, 17 July 2017 08:40 (six years ago) link
I know that technically wouldn't have been his grandma if so, but...what if Richard is Donna's son?
― Dippin' Sauce on my Nice New Slacks (Old Lunch), Monday, 17 July 2017 10:27 (six years ago) link
Not my fave episode by a long shot. The stuff with the mobsters and Candie went on too long and was unfunny. Dug the Gordon hotel scene. Dougie stuff was mainly ehh but Naomi Watts really gorg when she plays "flirty". Overall though way too choppy and all over the place.
― Acid Hose (Capitaine Jay Vee), Monday, 17 July 2017 10:55 (six years ago) link
Besides Audrey, is Big Ed the only original series regular who hasn't made an appearance yet? It occurred to me that Margaret's conversation with Hawk presages the return of the Bookhouse Boys, which would mean we're likely to see him soon, not to mention more James.
― Dippin' Sauce on my Nice New Slacks (Old Lunch), Monday, 17 July 2017 11:58 (six years ago) link
Sadly, the actor who played Joey Paulson does not appear to be in the new series.
― Dippin' Sauce on my Nice New Slacks (Old Lunch), Monday, 17 July 2017 12:02 (six years ago) link
Yeah the autotune in that Del Rio song was off-putting. I keep expecting Lana Del Rey to appear in an episode but maybe that's too obvious.

rewatching bits, noticed constance and albert are at a sort of dinner table and the conversation is sort of lively. probably nothing but fuck knows what counts as not-nothing in this show.

oh, and are we now to believe that Diane is in cahoots with bad cooper? and so was her reaction to him at the prison a charade?
― akm, Monday, 17 July 2017 12:58 (six years ago) link
i got the impression she's been roped into something she doesn't want a part of, so maybe historical involvement? maybe she was coerced into something? who knows
