Probably the deal with Nevins was "18ish"

I don't believe this to be correct. At least the number 18 was being thrown around a lot, even before production started.

We'll see what happens. For some odd reason I think that season 4 will be more grounded than "The Return". Of course there is loads of mythology to wrap up, but I think the last round of episodes will be much more old school character driven. And this time I would be even more surprised if...

And just a general misanthropic vibe. It's like the entire vibe was flipped upside down Like it or not, this was definitely the artistic ambition for the project. For some people life does not turn out exactly as they'd hoped. They get stuck in the mud. The really strong manage to shovel themselves...

I'm okay with no more, because much as FWWM and The Return have shown, it's not going to resolve or answer remaining mysteries and questions, and it will just bring up a bunch of new mysteries and questions that will never get a resolution. Mark Frost has stated that what remains to be told is the ...

and.. what is CANON anyway? Lynch doesnt ask Frost and includes some weird Richard & Linda stuff? Frost never approved. is it.. canon? Yes, 1) it was put out under Lynch/Frost productions and 2) Lynch has stated that every addition to the script was sent to Frost prior to filming (of course wit...

I think that is where the two worlds become relevant.

I mentioned this in the disappointed thread I think, but my reading of Ep. 29 was that the Giant was an embodiment of Jupiter. Why? ⋅  It was about a conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn; ⋅  LMFAP is in charge of time and rings, and there is a Saturn lamp in the waiting room; &sdot...

Also, I'm not minimizing Mark Frost: everything he wrote that is in the show is canon, full stop. To give an example of Lynch non-canon: the weird stuff with Leland, Sarah and Laura on the Blu-ray (I forget what that's called). So, "Between Two Worlds" a filmed fiction interview with acto...

I mean, Lynch and Cruise have had time to fall out, patch things up (prior to her effusive Gold Box DVD interview), and then inexplicably fall out again over her screentime in TR? Cruise seems a little all over the place.. No kidding. In fact they're actually (last I checked) back on good terms, bu...

Hello, I own an original version and a french traduction of The Final Dossier, and this afternoon, I have discovered that at least 2 important differences exist between these 2 versions : - In the french version, the Annie birthdate has been removed (no mention of 1973 anymore) - No mention either ...

My take on Diane seeing herself/a dobbleganger outisde the hotel is that it is evidence of being caught in a loop. They've been here before trying to accomplish this. They will be here again. It is a dead end. Diane decided to run to try to live a life outside of the destructive loop (fitting with t...

Perhaps Diane is attempting to not only block out her own trauma by covering Cooper's face, but also trying to keep him from removing his face to reveal the blackness within? I don't see any signs of it being her intent to keep him from unmasking. Instead, she covers his face in the exact same plac...

Reindeer, do you have any theories as why they might be driving that same car?

That's not new actually. Around 50% of the shorts he's been posting are old, either from his old paysite or even obscurer places, such as this one. It's from 2010's short film anthology 42 One Dream Rush, which is notable for also having a Harmony Korine short. Prior to when Lynch posted it, you co...
