"everybody who said fenn forgot how to act was wrong wrong wrong"
yeah not sure why anyone would argue that, her acting in those scenes was not appreciably worse than the acting she did in the original series, and very much in character really. she's proven in various other places she's capable as an actress (her short stint on gilmore girls, that show where she played a drunk on showtime or HBO years ago)

I'm in the.. I'm not me.. I *glitches out completely*

that was really the cruelest thing, the evil Cooper sending this trigger message to the Diane doppleganger that was pretty much a self-destruct code

mh, Monday, 28 August 2017 20:36 (six years ago) link

so can anybody spell this out for me - Mr. C said he had three sets of coordinates, two of which matched the rock. The two that matched were clearly a trap designed to kill him, and the third is presumably the coordinates to Jack Rabbit's Palace. Where did these three sets originate from? There's the coordinates that Diane got off the body, and then the coordinates he got from Ray... where did the other set come from? I assume the two that matched originated with Jeffries (or the "fake" Jeffries, who clearly wants Mr. C dead at this point).

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 20:41 (six years ago) link

I assume Diane's coordinates were the correct ones

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 20:41 (six years ago) link

The other set were from Jeffries, I assume.

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Monday, 28 August 2017 20:43 (six years ago) link

from the teakettle? or did he give him coordinates over the phone in that early episode? I can't remember and haven't rewatched.

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 20:44 (six years ago) link

third set was from teapot/jeffries, right? when the numbers float out into the air and evil cooper takes the notepad out to jot them down?

still kind of cracking up at the "goodbye, my son" line that was delivered nearly completely flat

mh, Monday, 28 August 2017 20:45 (six years ago) link

ah right thx KM I had forgotten that detail

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 20:45 (six years ago) link

surely some maniac out there has photo documented these numbers on the internet

akm, Monday, 28 August 2017 20:46 (six years ago) link

Wouldn't it be great if Janey-E was actually the real Diane, given Watts' Betty/Diane doubling in MULHOLLAND DR?

attention vampire (MatthewK), Monday, 28 August 2017 20:54 (six years ago) link

YES!!!! please

flappy bird, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:05 (six years ago) link

NW being the real Diane would be so perfect

flappy bird, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:05 (six years ago) link

About a month ago before I had started watching The Return, I was talking to a friend about Lost Highway and he asked me if I was enjoying Laura Dern's turn as Diane. I said I hadn't seen it and he apologized but I didn't care because it could've easily been Cooper's Diane or Diane Selwyn.

flappy bird, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:07 (six years ago) link

Ok, that was... Something else. Amazing. Audrey's dance, Diane's performance, shit, it was all so fucking great. (except Vedder, who's song I did not care for)

My last Monday evenings have been watching the episode plus another hour catching up on this thread. Dread that next week will be the last evening spent like that :(

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:46 (six years ago) link

my expectations for the Vedder appearance were so low & honestly pretty much every band that's played at the Roadhouse has fucking sucked & I was surprised by how much I liked the song, his performance, & its place in the episode.

flappy bird, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:48 (six years ago) link

except Vedder, who's song I did not care for

yeah I basically just rolled my eyes through this whole scene, surprised anyone listened to/deciphered the lyrics but I have a low yarling-tolerance.

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:51 (six years ago) link

xp
re: Janey E being Diane -- wouldn't put it past Lynch, and NW did seem kind of mystified/curious when Coop said he was someone else.

Great episode, and a swift reminder just how fast things can change in this show. The Coop waking and Richard Horne death scene both happened for me without any obvious setup, and like a lot of the best parts of this show, somehow linger in my mind longer than if they'd made big productions about "what was about to happen". Even the last Audrey scene in the mirror -- didn't see it coming. Good direction/editing, setting up what appears to be a slam-bang finale this weekend.

Dominique, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:52 (six years ago) link

No way. Chromatics fucking nailed it.

Vedder was just dude with a hat singing a song. It didn't bring anything to the table. Fuck me if I'm going to pay attention to his lyrics.

xp lol otm

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:52 (six years ago) link

a bunch of the bands have been great wtf

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:55 (six years ago) link

granted none of them have been Smashing Pumpkins or Animal Collective so maybe there's just no pleasing a flappy bird

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 21:57 (six years ago) link

Yeah talking bollocks there. Who was that band with Lynch's son playing guitar? Trouble, I think. I thought they were cool. Cmon Nine Inch Nails were great too esp in the context of that particular episode.

Well bissogled trotters (Michael B), Monday, 28 August 2017 21:57 (six years ago) link

I thought lots of them were great.

Anyway Julee Cruise next week!

I liked James

I've always kind of wanted to listen to more Au Revoir Simone and TP has convinced me

mh, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:01 (six years ago) link

and The Nine Inch Nails. who did Moby play with

Guilty lol :)

Most of them have been pitch perfect, very much in tune with the vibe of the episode. I did not feel this with Vedder at all (I do not hate the guy, but it just was really off).

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:02 (six years ago) link

lol flappy

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:03 (six years ago) link

vedder owned ffs!!!111

i liked NIN but generally the roadhouse music has been meh for me

-_- (jim in vancouver), Monday, 28 August 2017 22:04 (six years ago) link

*the band Trouble walks down the street*

person: "Uh oh..."

*the band member's eyes widen*

person: "Here comes..."

*band member's can hardly contain excitement levels*

person: "...that band called Trouble"

*the band called Trouble exhale in collective disappointment*

person: "Hey, do you want to grab some food on the corner? At, uh..."

*owner of the restaurant "That Burrito Place" perks up*

person: "what's it called? you know, it's that burrito..."

*owner of "That Burrito Place" can barely contain their excitement*

person: "...restaurant. On the corner. Can't remember the name though."

*owner of "That Burrito Place" exhales in disappointment*

Karl Malone, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:05 (six years ago) link

ok lol @ Billy pic

xp

Οὖτις, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:05 (six years ago) link

yeah I mean other than the known acts (NIN, Chromatics, Vedder, whoever Moby played with), all of the Roadhouse bands have been thoroughly dull and anesthetized to me, but that's just the music. in the context of the show, it is a very nice way to come down. i was talking to a friend about this and i asked why all the Roadhouse bands are like this (whatever genre or style you want to call it - other than the acts i mentioned, they're all pretty similar), and she said it's probably because Lynch loves them and that they all sound like contemporary versions of the music from the 50s and 60s that he's obsessed with - Bobby Vinton, Orbison, girl groups, all that. i thought that was otm. i haven't rewatched any episodes yet, i imagine they'll all sound better on a second look to me.

flappy bird, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:08 (six years ago) link

& i wish Sky Ferreira was one of the performers

flappy bird, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:10 (six years ago) link

Have you not been paying attention wtf?!

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:13 (six years ago) link

i have no excuse, i watched parts 1 thru 14 in one weekend & that was only two weeks ago

flappy bird, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:15 (six years ago) link

Oh yeah, your short lived showtime trial :D You're excused bcs of the Billy pic imo.

Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:17 (six years ago) link

If Eddie Vedder in a fucking fedora didn't take you out of the world of Twin Peaks, they you're in Lynchland Denial. Thank god the Audrey scene saved the ep. Janey-e being Diane is silly right? 1. Why would Albert and Cole forget what she looked like 2. Why would she not realize she was married to a twin of her boss?

kurt schwitterz, Monday, 28 August 2017 22:31 (six years ago) link

cactus blossoms are fucking rad as well imo
