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

i'm listening to the last lodgers episode and it's very good, great job simon

kate's mind is like a steep trap

I was pretty damn impressed by her analysis on this one.

I've already broke my post-finale comedown resolution to avoid weak stuff.

Must remember the comedown.

Co-sign on the last Lodgers being super super good

brad I'm going to quote you on that complete with typo

thx to you all - hoping to do one more episode but kate is really busy with that fancy school stuff

It's certainly the smartest thing about TP. Everything else is of based, divorced from artistic understanding.

That was probably meant to be (based) something about basic plot stuff?

So weird to see that I was apparently listening to the last Lodgers episode yesterday alongside everyone else. It truly was a thing of beauty. Y'all's general level of analysis is up there with the Wrapped in Plastic stuff I've read and the Little White Mask blog (which I've weirdly seen no one but me reference but which is pretty great). You've opened a number of investigative avenues I hadn't previously considered.

literally only just noticed the typo, wow

A steep trap is very difficult to escape from, perhaps even moreso than one made of steel.

Like an ant lion.

It's slippery in here

I don't agree with Trump on much, but I fully endorse his travel ban on Chad.

over on the billy joel thread i think we just found the ur-text that explains a lot of what's going on

"I've been watching you waltz all night Diane
Nobody's found a way behind your defenses
They never notice the zap gun in your hand
Until you're pointing it and stunning their senses"

goddamn

whoa is that right

huh

mark frost "liked" it on twitter is that a confirmation?

kind of leads me into the whole meta-narrative angle, where Twin Peaks is a tv show for us so reusing bit actors when they're in completely different contexts is no big deal, but as a fictional universe there are only so many locations and people in TP so seeing the same man in a different context is about as trivial

i don't really think it means anything but it's interesting that no one noticed until now (if it's true)

now if either one of the characters was David Lynch in a wig....

whaaaat

i guess it could be important if it suggests that similarities exist between the laura palmer world and the carrie page world

tough dame

lol of course it's not meaningless, even if it's just another example of elements of alternate realities/timelines bleeding into each other

just another example of elements of alternate realities/timelines bleeding into each other

this is how I take it. In the final episode Cooper is just in yet another parallel version of reality where identities/roles are jumbled up

if I saw Kyle Maclachlan on the street I'd get the same feeling tbh

i met kyle m the other day at a wine tasting and he was a little buzzed and it was very dougie-ish

Did you speak to him much?

i actually did! he was chill af. i met lynch the same day and was rushed through like a jailhouse food line.

would love to go to a kyle m wine-tasting. love that walla walla terroir

haven't read, but i guess you can

btw the line up at the lynch festival of disruption could def fit into the "worst lineups" thread

Over the course of this final section, a young girl (possibly Grace Zabriskie’s Sarah Palmer, mother of Laura)

really tired of how far this stupid idea travels

Is Pete Holmes in this festival the comedian Pete Holmes?

yes

thee worst

made it through two episodes of his shitty HBO show

I was gonna go to that Lynch signing just to rubberneck but it sold out

If only I'd known I coulda bumped into Chaki and ended up winetasting with Mr Jackpots

haven't read, but i guess you can

So proud of Kate!!!

It's a great piece - in fitting with you guys being the most intelligent podcast discussion of twin peaks.

Catherine Coulson -- your Log Lady -- was first AC on the LA crew of Jim Jarmusch's "Night On Earth, "Erasedhead," "Wrath of Khan," and "Killing of a Chinese Bookie," among other films. Have a great day!

Didn’t know about Killing of a Chinese Bookie! Sweet

I was watching a criterion collection documentary from 2014 about Eraserhead the other day. It featured Catherine Coulson, and I was both amazed and saddened at how great she looked. Cancer is a motherfucker.

I checked in to a hotel tonight and the clerk handed me a real old fashioned key with a green fob that guarantees postage if you drop it in the mail. I almost died.

yet you live

man, i got tagged on a facebook thread about twin peaks populated with normal people, and it is crazy to see how almost everyone hates it! like out of about 15 people who have commented, one other person has said they liked it, a couple are still in the middle of watching, and everyone else absolutely hates it! it's a good thread, i guess, because i realize i'm in this bubble where everyone that i interact with loves the show. but in general...no, people don't seem to like it at all
