Some good theorizing over here. https://vimeo.com/276572660 - The guy then starts speculating on the title 'The Return' and how significant that must be. As we all know however, this title was purely a creation of the Showtime marketing and scheduling team, and has nothing to do with Lynch/Frost. I...

As for Lynch, I get the feeling he's not motivated very much by awards. But man, what I wouldn't give to see his acceptance speech!!! He'd start talking about some table he's just built, or some tree he just saw in the woods; they'd have to yank him off stage! Then he'd probably hang his Emmy above...

What the hell do awards matter, especially in this day and age? They're all about politics, and the Oscars (with the Emmy's I'm sure following suit) have all but stated that racial and sexual "diversity" is now their number one criterion when deciding nominees. I still watch the Oscars be...

There are a lot of articles about it. Some that are specifically about Twin Peaks and nothing else. So that's fun. And I don't think anything Lynch did or any lack of political correctness in the show hurt its chances, per se. Only its uncompromising, innovative nature did. The other thing to rememb...

It's a shame, but not particularly shocking. The Emmys love playing it safe. What really matters is the cultural perception, and that is that TP was robbed. Overwhelmingly the critics and general audience are absolutely lighting the Emmys up on social media right now about snubbing Peaks. That's go...

Okay, so Twin Peaks was not easy TV. It ruffled fan feathers and confused the hell out of everyone. Still, the fact that it's been given absolutely nothing might seem as confounding as its own story. That is, it's easy to feel that way at first blush. But consider for a moment how familiar the whol...

Kyle not getting nominated sucks, but then I just remember that the other greatest show in the universe got shafted in the cast department as well, and I just shrug my shoulders... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_awards_and_nominations_received_by_The_Wire#Primetime_Emmy_Awards But Frost and ...

I'm disgusted. Absolutely disgusted. When will these awards shows honor what should be honored in the time that it is made? Only five nominees in the Limited Series category as opposed to 8 for Comedy and 7 for Drama is also part of the problem. I fully expected Peaks to get the 6th spot; most predi...

Was reading some of the discussion on the Room to Dream thread, and I wonder if there was some weird subconscious influence on Frost and Lynch when they wrote Cooper going back in time and resurrecting Laura. It's almost like a metaphor for reclaiming/resurrecting the show and rewriting what sounds...

Perhaps you guys and gals already put this rumor to rest, but I still found this article interesting: https://thefilmstage.com/news/is-david-lynch-making-a-new-film-with-netflix/ The reason is because of the speculation regarding why Netflix would want Lynch: to dangle a new film in front of Cannes...

Hawk had probably corrected them a hundred times and eventually gave up. Like the “bunny” scene, I think the “joke” is that Hawk has to bear their cluelessness in subdued annoyance while he tries to solve the mystery. I also think it’s significant that L/F grew up in a time when the label “Indian” ...

Can’t believe this hasn’t been mentioned before, but Mkchael Elphick’s “Night Porter” in The Elephant Man refers to himself as “Sunny Jim” when he’s selling tickets to see Merrick. I noticed that on my post Return marathon. I hadn't remembered it before that. Very interesting. Magic is worth a watc...

From Room to Dream: “Almost everybody has a bunch of stuff floating in them, and I don’t think most people are aware of the dark parts of themselves. People trick themselves and we all think we’re pretty much okay and that others are at fault. Like Maharishi says, built into the human being is alwa...

And it would get onto disc eventually; at least it would exist. That's no guarantee. It seems they only release their most popular content on disc. Something minor like shirt films he makes for the internet is fine. I'm talking about a major work like a new series or movie. It's not picture quality...
