Drink full: The TWIN PEAKS 2017 spoiler thread, part 2

I've seen it suggested that the bellucci & sunset blvd refs represent some kind of unprecedented encroachment of "our" world into twin peaks, which isn't really true - in the old series characters made reference to Marilyn Monroe, Cary Grant, the king & I, just off the top of my head. Reminds me of how before this came out ppl were fretting about how ~wrong~ it would feel to see modern technology in twin peaks, ppl are v attached to this idea they have in their heads of tp existing in this "timeless" self contained 50s space, forgetting that there are palm pilots, vcrs and mobile phones in the pilot episode - and then of course the return comes out and lynch leans into all the modern communication stuff really hard and it's awesome and everybody loves it

I predict a small bit of comedy business as Coop deals with an iphone for the first time.

Ha, that'd work - all the tech-savvy went to the doppelgänger

Btw there are apparently 10 scenes from the various official trailers that are still to come in these last two eps

http://welcometotwinpeaks.com/news/twin-peaks-finale-sneak-peek-unaired-scenes/

(They are mostly the tiniest snippets, establishing shots & such, but they give some idea of what locations we'll be visiting so don't click if you wanna go in ultra-fresh)

I like the idea that the man in Cole's dream is (secretly) Lynch rather than Cole. I HATE the idea that the series would ever explicitly point to a thing like this, mixing "our" world with the world of the show in a Barthian sense, making a wry point about its own constructedness blah blah blah.

Bad. Bad. Bad.

u mad at this thing that won't happen

(Actually it kind of did happen with the log lady intros delivered to camera and david lynch interviewing the palmer family, both of which are "canon" btw)

I'm mad that people speculated about that kind of thing here, in this hallowed space that isn't reddit

I hope Tammy and the weird sheriff's deputy have a scene together.

I love Tammy. She doesn't seem to be as much of a fan favorite as I'd expect.

I was unsure at first but fully came around circa pt 6 & have been team Tammy ever since (full disclosure: I also really like chris isaak in fwwm)

we get the chris isaak we deserve, which is tammy

I’m kind of doubting all the clips in that link are from the trailer. Promos use a lot of b-roll or unused footage!

gah, that is, from the final episodes

Also per tweet I quoted upthread, if you have such a problem with bell's unactorly alienness you forfeit the right to piss yourself every time they replay a few seconds of Bowie footage xps

the cooper in the big trailer scene (the one where he steps out of the darkness) really looks like dopplecoop to me; the face is so stern and his eyes are very dark.

Yeah I've been resistant to "it's bad coop in disguise" theories because the fake tan makeup is gone from his face but I'm now thinking that shot could be him emerging after being given a supernatural makeover

Tammy hate is nagl imo and I think we know very well what's behind it and shame on anyone

ok I'm checking out of this thread til it's all over. I'll see you in the trees.

I mentioned upthread I was gonna enthusiastically immerse myself in a ridiculously long cumulative/preparatory Twin Peaks finale dance/workout session today and, um, this is its soundtrack; in case anyone's interested, I also put it on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/21xygnm5njwhhjvyt24a5ah4i/playlist/2a8TUZyltDwHtjpGvUyUwt

It includes music from the series, actual and fantasy Roadhouse performers, and further music related to, inspired by, or reminding me of Twin Peaks or Lynch's other work for whichever reason. The Cyclobe piece closing the playlist is a prediction in the broadest sense. See you on the other side.

Niiiice

If I could have one wish granted for this last episode: I'd like to see señorita dido again pls

my only request is that each ep be at least four hours long

I love Tammy

Kinda love mh's roadhouse lynch/mclachlan ending concept tbph

Nah fuck her iirc

I didn't do the marathon but I did rewatch part 8. It must have been said already but this episode's whole deal - nuclear blast, fireman, Girl+Boy, platters - is spelled out in fwwm: When this kind of fire starts, it is very hard to put out. The tender boughs of innocence burn first, and the wind rises, and then all goodness is in jeopardy.

are James and Freddy still in the cell?

If I could have one wish granted for this last episode: I'd like to see señorita dido again pls

I think there's a good chance you will. The first ep title sounds like something the fireman would say. Which gives some chance she'll appear.

I haven't watched any ep more than once, so I'm looking forward to a good rewatch after tonight. (depending how i feel - I've been asleep for most of three days now - not a good condition for marathons)

we're having a little party tonight and projecting this. i can't wait. they've been showing a lot of Episode 8 atomic test on instagram so i think we are in for a abstract/mystical treat like that episode.

think we will find out who this is meeting with Mr. C outside the glass box. it looks like they are supervising the Experiment. is that Charlie? is he sitting in a chair or floating? his hand his raised. many characters perform similar Mudra across S3 - what is he telling Mr. C?

its been a weird week for me. i was mugged the other day and while relating this to my mom she told me about a recent crime out in the country. out in Auburn, Georgia (there are tons of trailer parks there) there was a drug shootout and someone stole a car and abandoned it near my mom's house. they were told to stay inside because he was out somewhere in the woods. btw they are moving for precisely these reasons (this happens a lot).

she hasn't seen the new Twin Peaks yet but she said she will probably binge watch. she saw the original series when it was on originally but only the first season or so.

rewatched FWWM last night and noted that log lady speech as well, something I never would have thought about seeing it prior to the new series but last night I was like, oh yeah, atomic bombs.

Thats horrible Adam, I hope you're ok.

hahaha! i love that.

and he's absolutely right. i've watched this season in a variety of ways. the worst experiences have been the times when i couldn't turn the sound up, or when the sound was competing with a couple box fans during the middle of the summer. the best were when i projected it up on my wall, and times when i was alone and listened with headphones. there really is a wealth of sonic detail in there that is hard to appreciate or even hear at all when listening on a laptop, or on speakers at a low-to-moderate volume on speakers. listening on headphones makes even the relatively "normal" scenes absolutely crackle with intensity.

sorry, xpost to maura

adam i just saw your post and i hope you're doing ok, physically and otherwise. getting mugged is a traumatic experience and sometimes you don't feel the full effect until weeks or months later.

oh gosh adam i am so sorry. i hope you are doing okay <3

Yeah, sending lots of good vibes/strength etc. to you, Adam. Given what an enriching experience watching this show has been, I bet yr TP party will have a really good impact at the right time.

Well said.

thanks guys im ok! my knuckles and knee got busted up but im fine. i am lucky they didnt have any weapons. 15+ years in the city and this is the first time anything like this happened to me. my roommate had randomly decided to go down to the basement at the same time so i ran into her in the hallway immediately after it happened. then we spent half an hour watching CCTV footage looking for fragments of the incident. it was very surreal.

i made some Twin Peaks Season 3 ringtones this morning. double clicking should add these as a ringtone. a couple of Hellooooos, conga line, windswept, 30s slow room, and abstract mood:

Hope you are doing ok, and wishing you well, Adam!

Getting some donuts for tonight's finale at my neighborhood's version of the Double R diner, Twin Donuts:

Hi Maura! 02134ever.

Tammy's great. I loved her acting in the Dern tulpa scene, she really nailed that look of concern and suspicion

found it really sad Bell was interviewed regarding how much she was disliked
