Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

Hey, I'm new to this forum! Seems nice! :) For Twin Peaks fans in Scandinavia, HBO Nordic (HBO's stream service here) just announced that new episo...I mean hours will be streamable on Monday 22th! Fingers crossed this means first four hours, not just 1 and 2. Hope the servers will hold up. :wink: ...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

I kind of like Twin Peaks: The Return. There's something so simple and pure or naive about it. I on the other hand strongly dislike it. It has a unnecessary dumbness and on-the-nose-ness about it, also almost a disgusting Marvel /capesh*t aura which is even worse. Why why why on earth couldn't it j...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

2. Oh no, please tell me it's not 18 parts numbered 0 to 17. This can't be the pilot all over again... This.. lol I thought I had the numbering figured out but now I'm confused all over again Maybe it just isn't Twin Peaks without the confusion about episode numbers, just like it isn't without self...

If you were annoyed by the EW article, get a load of this: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/bastard-machine/critics-notebook-how-legion-scooped-twin-peaks-as-2017s-weird-show-watch-986474 I'm very thankful that that idiot waited with writing that piece all until now when it's too late for it to rea...

Re: Twin Peaks Reunion in Entertainment Weekly

I'm always going to be in the camp that loves FWWM to the point that I feel it makes the entire series better because it exists. Even moreso now that the Missing Pieces have been released. I agree that a lot of folks will be unhappy with the new series if it sways too far towards FWWM. If it does t...

Re: RE: Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

Thanks for the link - great read, even if a lot of it is familiar. Is this maybe from that photo shoot we heard about a few weeks ago? There are quotes from a lot of the cast which I've never seen before and seem new and post-filming the show, with some possibly from the shoot, which suggests they ...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

I'm sure it's the high expectations in contrast with the high level of secrecy and as good as nonexistent amount of concrete info (no still pictures, no trailer, no plot summary) that is messing with out unconscious minds. I don't think the show will be shit. But it will probably be very different f...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

The ending to episode 2 (Cooper calling Harry) and its resolution in episode 3 is exactly the sort of things that makes Twin Peaks stand out imo and separates it from ordinary shows. Without those it wouldn't be my favorite series of all time.

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

Even the Julee Cruise songs Lynch himself worked on for the original show were more evocative and mood-based than specifically plot or character-oriented. It's pretty cool the way some lyrics from the first Julee Cruise album fit so perfectly with the story of the show, even though they were writte...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

Yeah, I'm not into that at all. I can only hope it's briefly featured in the background in a bar or something. Personally I LOVE that one and I can see it work very well in the show. On the other hand, Out of sand by Eddie Vedder is in every way a lot less Peaksy, and I was never a huge fan of his ...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

Well, Frost promised us more trailers and promo bits back around when his book got out. It's been 3-4 months since, and all we've gotten thus far is one sort of proper trailer-ish thing (the term "proper" in this case meaning it contains at least few seconds worth of truly NEW material) -...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

I disagree. Their interactions always stood out to me as being different to the other romance subplots. They felt more real, in part because they didn't fall into a romance and immediately sleep with each other. When they completely stopped interacting with each other I think the show lost somethin...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

But yeah Badalamenti is not unfamiliar with blues either plus his score can also be monotonous when a situation asks for it, like for example the Rabbits theme.. David Lynch Rabbits Theme Composed By, Performer – David Lynch Recorded By, Mixed By – David Lynch, John Neff Alright. I always assumed i...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

Dunno, I kinda like listening to Lynch's music, like The Big Dream for example, but scoring parts of the new series? I remain to be convinced.. Very curious to see what he'll pull off and what 'more confident with his instruments' means. There are lots of similarities in Lynch's music to Badalament...

Re: NO SPOILERS: Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime May 21st 2017

Don't forget that Mark Frost wished for new viewers to at least watch something of the original. IMO if they watch nothing but the pilot, episode 2, episode 14 and episode 29 they would not only get up to speed but it would also work as a semi-coherent story.
