Re: No Ray Wise?

Well, we got Walter to play a Renault again, and I really liked that scene (including the sweeping part), so we could have gotten to see more of Ray Wise, I wish we did. The only way I was able to (finally) reconcile it was by looking at TP overall as a pendulum movement between two poles (twin peak...

Re: Part 18 - What is your name? (SPOILERS)

I have not ordered from them since. It is funny though that I now have two S3 boxes, the first must be a Mr. C one. Just in case, I will keep the boxes separated so they do not annihilate each other. :lol:

Re: Part 18 - What is your name? (SPOILERS)

On approaching the desert location where Cooper will exit the car at 430 mile mark ("the threshold"), we see skid marks on the pavement. Those look to be the ones that Mr. C's car was making as he was losing control of it (judging by the surrounding ground features). If so, then that was ...

Re: Best Plot Twist in The Return

Although it was incorporated as a flashback in Part 17, there was a scene in the episode that made sense of what seemed like a minor and insignificant mystery that had originated in FWWM. The flashback footage from FWWM where James & Laura are pulled over on the side of the road near the woods,...

Re: Part 8 - Gotta light? (SPOILERS)

Having just rewatched part 8, I noticed a detail that I have not seen mentioned elsewhere, it is a black upward triangle. For a moment I thought it was a pyramid, but it was just a triangle. If you pay attention to that area while watching the scene you cannot miss it. I am not sure what to make of...

Re: 2021 Thoughts on Season 3

Apropos Lynch, I obviously do not know him personally. And people who have met him privately have nothing but good words for him. Would it be nice to meet him and talk to him in some venue, yes, he is definitely a great artist. Somebody just said here that he does not like to go out that often, well...

Re: 2021 Thoughts on Season 3

Again, you are virtually putting words in my mouth that were not said by me. All that I said was that Dougie teases were scripted and not accidental. That wasn't my intention, I apologize. I think I mistook your position and assumed too much of what you were seconding, and so conflated it with the ...

Re: 2021 Thoughts on Season 3

I disagree, and we can certainly disagree here, I respect your point of view. I just saw it differently, but saying it is "a bit too much" to me simply reinforces, in a wide stroke, what Brad was just talking about earlier. This actually gets into something I've noticed in these discussio...

Re: 2021 Thoughts on Season 3

I don't think the experience, whether original airing watcher or otherwise, was intended to be a negative or nasty one. I can understand if that was anyone's experience, but to say for sure you know Lynch/Frost did so wringing their hands is a bit much. I disagree, and we can certainly disagree her...

Re: 2021 Thoughts on Season 3

Definitely. I do not remember all the details now, I do recall listing them in "the thread", but there were plenty of Dougie teases and traps: Dougie staring at the badge, flag, gun, eating cherry pie, coffee, hustling Ike the Spike, you name it. And never did he wake up. The biggest hint...

Re: 2021 Thoughts on Season 3

I didn't like what I perceived as it, at times, speaking down to its audience. I wonder if anyone else picked up on that? An example might be it really stretching out Dougie "waking up", hinting it could happen every episode, which is fine - but then that scene with the woman in the car o...

Re: 2021 Thoughts on Season 3

As much as I have been "profoundly disappointed" with S3, I kept revisiting it, not necessarily by watching it that often, but more by frequently thinking about it, contemplating it, if I may say so. Sometimes you do not like a record on a first listen, and then once you give it a few more...

Re: Why exactly did ABC treat the show so badly?

I was thinking of not posting this here, but since the last few pages were about S3, and especially about Ed and Norma, I decided the the contrary, my apologies in advance. It would have been in the spirit of TP to leave Ed and Norma arc unresolved as well with another cliffhanger, that would have f...

Re: Season 4? Or is it over after this?

Laura is physically dead, and yet her spirit is not, at least that is what I got out of that statement. Part 18 is in a league of its own. As I mentioned several pages back, the car that Cooper and Diane are in when they travel down to Texas (supposedly), is an older model (from 50s or 60s), Richard...
