I think it's more insane. I can imagine someone abusing their mother like that more than I can imagine them doing it to their gran.

lol we spent months reading again and again about how Lynch refuses to pander to coffee-and-pie nostalgia, then he happily assists the launch of a Damn Good Coffee Stout

Evan R, Thursday, 12 October 2017 19:10 (six years ago) link

he has his own line of coffee!

mh, Thursday, 12 October 2017 19:11 (six years ago) link

...which is what that stout is made with.

i personally believe that david lynch should approach his coffee and beer ranges with the same fragmented and hallucinatory spirit he approaches his other creative output with.

dose that sht

This sounds like it could be really cool:

this is very Lynchy, isn't it? It's by Tove Jansson circa 1930

"I love the scene in the sheriff’s office at the end which quite literally broke the Avid. There was so much data for that scene. Eleven tracks of picture. 24 tracks of sound. It was a 27 minute scene and we had to break it up into 2 minute chunks just for Avid to be able to process everything. There’s 22 principal characters. When he was shooting it, I told him it was going to be special. He was using shaky-cam and I told him, 'It looks great. Keep using that shaky-cam.'"

Great interview, thanks for that link. And I lol'ed at "Guido Cooper."

What’s your take on the importance of continuity?

DUNHAM: To me, there’s no question. It doesn’t matter.

LOL there ya go "the diner patrons dont match IT MUST MEAN SOMETHING" fanboys

Οὖτις, Monday, 23 October 2017 02:09 (six years ago) link

To be fair ALL of the clues and threads turned out to be red herrings, pretty much.

attention vampire (MatthewK), Monday, 23 October 2017 02:23 (six years ago) link

Idk about that - Naido turned out to be diane, and wins correctly called the diane/janey-e relationship

Οὖτις, Monday, 23 October 2017 02:25 (six years ago) link

He's talking about 2 shots of a coffee cup not matching up or whatever, not an entire roomful of people deliberately disappearing.

Chris L, Monday, 23 October 2017 02:27 (six years ago) link

Don't stop believin

Man...

I love this thread, but damn could it get smug with this kinda shit.

circa1916, Monday, 23 October 2017 02:59 (six years ago) link

I don’t think continuity not mattering is the same thing as someone busting in and asking for character names that only exist in a later scene, referenced from a scattered off-center reality

mh, Monday, 23 October 2017 03:39 (six years ago) link

XP idk yes and then yknow don't maybe run with it as fact for six weeks yknow

Hey guys I'm finally getting to watch this again. I'm at episode 11 and enjoying going back through the thread, especially the swing from the Sun/Mon reactions, theories, and interesting things that I missed to the midweek descent into arguments about backwards blinking or ratings or whatever. ;)

I'm v much looking forward to getting the set and just having it on in the apartment for passive + active viewing.

Simon H., Monday, 23 October 2017 14:41 (six years ago) link

xps Dunham's comment doesn't prove much either way re that particular example - the diner population could change the same way the hotel changes in the finale (deliberate continuity fuckery) or it could just be expediency due to a tight shoot (incidental disregard for continuity). Either seems likely enough to me. In any case it's there, no matter the intent, and I think there's plenty of reason to think there's significance to be found in the pieces that play under the credits (particularly this one, the first reference to s4 protagonist Billy!).

As far as IT MUST MEAN SOMETHING, where I personally would get frustrated with the plane windows/2003 strain of Reddit sleuthing it was down to that thing where like, if your way of extracting meaning from lynch film never allows for the possibility that an unusual editing choice might be made solely or chiefly for its affective quality (or even, you know, just for the sake of an unusual editing choice) then you're - let's not say missing the point, but shutting yourself off from a huge amount of what's valuable about his approach

what is "2003"? did people think this season took place in 2003

flappy bird, Monday, 23 October 2017 16:48 (six years ago) link

? It was explicitly set in 2003

Gary Synaesthesia (darraghmac), Monday, 23 October 2017 17:00 (six years ago) link

Yeah there was an apparently (inexplicably) popular theory for about half of the season's run that the Las Vegas parts were taking place in 2003. I believe it originated on Reddit and was based afaict on no evidence (well, there was a number 3 in one frame, and the 1st season of westworld, and that's it). I like to use it as shorthand for everything I find facepalmy about that kind of thing although more fairly it's just the 2017 equivalent of SUICIDE 3%
