I actually used to have a job that involved spending time on reddit as well lol

Is that a big thing nowadays? Promoting a business there? Good luck USA/rip flappy etc

I used to work in the cryptocurrency space and that's all I'm gonna say about that

i dont see all the hate people are getting from reddit. the tp subreddit seems like a bunch of enthusiastic fan boys and are pretty cheery.

the waiter turned out to be the Giant!

I don't think this is literally true. the "one and the same" comment I took to mean they were just both White Lodge spirits

And that Japanese dude turned out to be Catherine!

it's true that ingenious disguise fooled absolutely everyone

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 29 August 2017 19:32 (six years ago) link

this might be apocryphal but apparently it did actually fool Jack Nance

Yeah according to Laurie he was like "that fumio guy is weird" on set

sad lol

I take "one and the same" literally fwiw

streeps of range (wins), Tuesday, 29 August 2017 19:42 (six years ago) link

but the Giant had already appeared to Cooper as the Giant, why would he just appear in a different form for no apparent reason?

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 29 August 2017 19:42 (six years ago) link

who knows?

streeps of range (wins), Tuesday, 29 August 2017 19:44 (six years ago) link

I mean if they are separate lodge guys, what is the function of the first?

streeps of range (wins), Tuesday, 29 August 2017 19:45 (six years ago) link

You need to shift your perspective from the anthropocentric to the dugpacentric, m'man. (toooooooke)

Glengarry Glen Marshall (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 29 August 2017 19:46 (six years ago) link

Waiter as Giant's tulpa maybe? The Waiter seems to actually exist in the real world, other people see him, he brings coffee, he shows up at the roadhouse etc., whereas the Giant only appears to Cooper in dreams/visions. idk

I love this show and I love this thread but I may need to check out just because I'm in denial about it ever being over.

What I love about TP, and ilx's thread and participants specifically, is there is (almost) no mouthing off someone who has an out-there theory

i'm delighted that my reductio ad absurdum candie = laura 'theory' managed to catch on a bit

My workout routine is to dance intensely to fairly lengthy dance playlists two or three times a week, and my last handful of late Sunday afternoon dance playlists always involved some degree of preparation/vibe-setting for the evening's TP:TR part -- music from the series (old and new), songs we've heard at the Roadhouse, songs I'd wanna hear at the Roadhouse, music inspired by Twin Peaks, music reminding me of Twin Peaks, other Lynch-related stuff...
I'm so hyped up for Sunday that I have prepared an unprecedented cumulative 4 1/2 hour dance playlist, it's gonna be ridiculous and intense and many calories will be, to use a term employed earlier by wins, "Earle'd" and it will all be worth it I think. At least I hope I'll find the time for it!

this is so awesome

That might be my favorite moment in the entire series. xpost

LA weirdo people should know that the man playing piano in that scene is COUNT SMOKULA!

This isn't quite true though - the waiter turned out to be the Giant! And that Japanese dude turned out to be Catherine!

Vivian Niles turned out to be MT Wentz

The man from another place turned out to be MIKE's arm

Aw! Thanks. It looks like everything that will be in that playlist is available on Spotify, so I reckon I'll post a link in here...

lol otm, people complain about the James subplot in season 2, but fuck man Windom Earle was so lame. So psyched he hasn't showed up in the new one.

no way

Anyone else think the Diane bar crisis was a deliberate nod to The Shining? Her face-down eye rolling looked exactly like Danny having his freakout, then long reverse dolly shots down corridors culminating in a close up of the door, handle and number of Gordon's / Albert's / Tammy's room.

Um, Leland Palmer turned out to be BOB?

No.

I just want it to be mentioned that Lynch found a way to make a smiley face emoticon incredibly unnerving. That second shot of her phone with the zoom followed by her reaction was absolutely chilling filmmaking.

jacque renault turned out to be the blank fart

note the punctuation of the message changes too

na (NA), Wednesday, 30 August 2017 16:49 (six years ago) link

i honestly wonder if they were using a real phone and the discrepancy is just due to filming times, but that would be pretty sloppy

Glengarry Glen Marshall (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 30 August 2017 16:57 (six years ago) link

Huh. I'd lean towards sloppiness - or, more generously, a trademark lynch "leave it in" whim as we all know he's wont to have - but he made such a point of showing the NOT DELIVERED message close up so that inclines me more to assume it's intentional. Probably just for textural weirdness around technology & time rather than anything plotty like multiple messages or whatever

streeps of range (wins), Wednesday, 30 August 2017 17:01 (six years ago) link

isn't it really hard to film phones/computers/screens? i assumed they put all that info in in post

flappy bird, Wednesday, 30 August 2017 17:42 (six years ago) link

there have been multiple irregularities between texts sent and texts received in this iirc

akm, Wednesday, 30 August 2017 19:08 (six years ago) link

so I am rewatching the original series, which had the conventional 1990 TV ratio of 4:3. This one has 16:9, obviously. (FWWM was 1.85:1.) Is the difference particularly striking if you've watched both series this year?
