Re: Part 8 - Gotta light? (SPOILERS)

-The starchild Laura stuff I'm not so sure about. Meh. Middle class white girl as the saviour of all goodness in the world? Eh.... Seems a bit overwrought. Pretty funny that these cosmic beings had her high school prom photo... Because it would all make sense and fit better with a lower-income blac...

Re: General Discussion on the New Series (All Opinions Welcome)

There's nothing wrong with preferring the original show to the new one. If that's all you are saying, I have no issue with it. I actually don't think there's anything I've seen in this new series yet that has matched the brilliance of some of the greatest Lynch directed moments of the original seri...

Re: General Discussion on the New Series (All Opinions Welcome)

Comparing a creative work of art to a food product says a lot about your perspective. A hot dog is a food product, and generally it can be customized to your taste. You don't want ketchup, but you want relish? You got it. That's not how art works. You experience art on the terms that the art was cr...

Re: General Discussion on the New Series (All Opinions Welcome)

I started a thread about this myself, but what makes you more qualified to determine what is and what isn't Twin Peaks than Mark Frost and David Lynch? Well, as with any true art, it's open to interpretation. And that's regardless of the supposed intent of the creators. Plus, I think it's a given t...

Re: General Discussion on the New Series (All Opinions Welcome)

Well, as with any true art, it's open to interpretation. And that's regardless of the supposed intent of the creators. Plus, I think it's a given that my opinions are my own. 'The Return' has indeed stripped enough defining elements out of Twin Peaks that it's something else entirely. Now, one can ...

Re: General Discussion on the New Series (All Opinions Welcome)

As I said in another thread, this new show isn't Twin Peaks. It's way too divergent from the original television show and film. It's definitely a Lynch production and it is interesting and riveting on it's own, but this really hasn't been a return to Twin Peaks. I started a thread about this myself...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

The issue here is calling it "Twin Peaks", it just isn't - so far. Yep!! It's a spinoff show that features characters from Twin Peaks. To call it season three of Twin Peaks is a load of bollocks. I like it as a bonkers Lynch show. I like that it includes characters from Twin Peaks. But it...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)

Hey all, first post here, been doing some reading on these forums; decided to sign up and start giving my two cents. As much as I hate to say this, so far, 6 episodes in as I type this, season 3 has not been anywhere near the brilliance of the original run, or FWWM. In fact, it's really a stretch to...
