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

Can we have "Trump, October XXXX: What year is this?"

Wow, that was something. And really terrifying in places..

That was fucking tense!

One for the grandkids

What the fuck just happened

is it the story of the little girl who lives down the lane

I'll be thinking about that ending for a long time: not beatific like the vision of Cooper, Laura, and the angel at the end of FWWM, but haunting and mournful and radically open.

Well, I guess that also describes the FWWM ending, but I don't really have language yet for that last sequence.

No one can film a suburban street at night like Lynch. Or is it just that no one can film the night like him? Amazing.

I can't believe we didn't see Audrey again.

boy i can

Becky's fate is also left open, bad though things look for her...

where tf was Audrey in that last shot of 16

where was anybody

watching the glass box

I expected a more... visibly/literally/conventionally cosmic finale: more stars, more openings in the sky. Instead, things were opened to the cosmos through the traversing of several interrelated/mutually constitutive spatio-temporal apparatuses. Painful but amazing.

The big question: will a concensus "explains the general gist" theory emerge about the final episode, or is it so dense it'll remain largely a mystery?

i love lynch but the bob vs freddy scene was torture, sometimes it's too much for me

lol ppl already clamouring for a season 4, kidding themselves imo

finally figured out what that music refrain used in Richard/Bad Coop scene reminds me ...paradise circus by burial remix

So Cooper failed. He's stuck in an endlessly recursive series of universes, going deeper and deeper in-between the seams of time and space, trying to save Laura Palmer forever (8).

so was that a capt. beefheart electricity reference by mike??

I know everyone loves the number stuff but street address of the Palmer house (Lucky) 7 0 (in the tens place) 8

Im not going to try to parse that just wanted to write it down for some reason.

So Laura got swept into a fake/dissociative timeline and Cooper drove "over the line" into that world to get her back? And then at the end she remembers the trauma and the dream world explodes?

Also was Cooper a hybrid good/bad Coop in pt 18? His mannerisms seemed more like Mr C than Agent Cooper.

yeah i love how the number 10 was given a shot out, as if to clearly say to the audience that the numbers mattered on some level

Address is 3 numerals that add up to 15. Ok I'm done.

NOT WHERE IT COUNTS BUDDY

Hahaha yes

what
the
fuck
just
happened

lmao

i hope anybody who's reading this who hasn't seen season 3 yet is extremely encouraged by us all asking what the hell just happened

I'm uh. I'm. What the fuck.

Moderately traumatized.

just finished 17. Julee Cruise - would've never expected that song, nice to hear.

But man gotta go for a smoke/toke break here, this shit is too intense

Episode 17 was the ending. Episode 18 was the epilogue. A very dark epilogue. I think Dale totally fucked up.

Again

yes

Evil won

i'm so sad and completely fulfilled and i am unable to analyze either feeling

accurate

Can't believe lynch made a mockery of the little man's famous line "she's filled with answers"

I don't think Evil won at all. I felt Sarah/the experiment/Judy in whichever configuration was smashing Laura's photo up for a reason that may have been something that wasn't, or wasn't limited to, the trauma of Laura's death (etc.). Things are, as always, open. I might be misinterpreting all sorts of things though.

17 was just completely thrilling & amazing & overwhelmingly great, for now balances out the utter confusion & frustration of 18.

(And, of course, there isn't any definite interpretation. Which, still, is another reason why I don't think it's possible at all to say that Evil won.)

i regret dying on the blink truther hill

Ending it on a cliffhanger like that - especially with the ultimate cliché "WHAT YEAR IS IT???" - was pretty fucking bold.
