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.

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.

note the punctuation of the message changes too
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

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

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?
― ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 August 2017 20:34 (six years ago) link
Not for me, although I watched seasons 1 & 2 on my laptop, saw FWWM in a theater, and have been watching The Return on a TV. Rewatched the s2 finale on the TV and was bummed out by the streaming quality. Other than that it was fine.
― flappy bird, Wednesday, 30 August 2017 20:36 (six years ago) link
Morbs, the bigger difference for me is the sharp, naturalistic quality of the DV in The Return vs. the rich, deep colors and careful framing of film in the original.
― Moodles, Wednesday, 30 August 2017 21:16 (six years ago) link
it's especially apparent whenever he uses scenes from the original or fwwm
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Wednesday, 30 August 2017 21:35 (six years ago) link
it gives this feeling of distance and myth to the original parts, which is excellent

There was an explicit line "he could be in a come for years!" that was a beautiful nosetug for ppl moaning about vacant cool
Cooper is sending a new Dougie back to Vegas to replace him. This was ridiculously explicit.
Handwringing about this would seem to overlook a few things- the characters affected react to whatever Dougie/coop they have with total acceptance and equanimity (Janey-E was pretty much changing his nappies ffs), Dougie was never actually real, it's not a case of coop abandoning nor manipulating so much as avoiding the scenario of getting into "actually you're married to/begotten of a copy of my doppleganger, but he's disappeared into the black lodge, never mind what that is, and technically the guy you've been living with more recently was not me either, but my uninhabited body sprinkled with lucky dust, yes I seem to have been aware of this throughout but was in all fairness essentially vegetative so yknow while the sex probably was without consent that works both ways, I'll say nothing if you say nothing, ok? also I've left you significantly better off financially, the previous incumbent seems like a bad deal and I think the next one will likely be an improvement on that but let's be real here you've just spent the past few weeks moony-eyed over what was essentially a moneybox with an echo function so don't come the abandoned widow with me love somehow I think you'll cope" which seems a kindness imo
Though the parallel and contrast between how dopplecooper meets his son and deals with him vs dales first meeting and acknowledgement of sonny jim was nicely played
Oh yeah I'm all caught up now. Hi everyone.

so this is almost certainly just weird editing rather than deliberate cryptic misdirection, but in the scene with diane in the hotel room, every shot with albert & tammy has them about a shoulder width apart, except when albert pulls his gun, where her chair has been moved much further left, you can only just see its edge and she is completely off screen.
― angelo irishagreementi (ledge), Thursday, 31 August 2017 18:26 (six years ago) link
And what of the choice to frame Cole as if he were alone in the hotel room until Diane finally entered?
― Glengarry Glen Marshall (Old Lunch), Thursday, 31 August 2017 18:29 (six years ago) link
yeah that felt totally deliberate.
― angelo irishagreementi (ledge), Thursday, 31 August 2017 18:35 (six years ago) link
also plz remind me what was the track when diane was walking there? the knife? fever ray?
