Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
The Return failed on a screenwriting 101/filmmaking 101 level. For example, the main antagonist in a work of dramatic fiction should probably pose a threat. Evil Cooper wanted mysterious coordinates to a mysterious location for mysterious reasons. What was he trying to accomplish? What threat did h...

Re: Part 16 - No knock, no doorbell (SPOILERS)
I know, that's why I used that Smilie. Actually, her whole statement is wrong, not just the last part about Cooper. She says that saying that someone is 25 years older than another person means the first person is 25 years old :D But it doesn't really tell us anything about Richard's age, only about...

Well, this may have been lost in the ep 16 thread, but here goes (courtesy of vicksvapor77): "Sabrina got back to me on the Cooper age issue. It definitely seems to be a simple continuity mistake (which I won't be telling her haha), which is further emphasized by the case file picture I posted...

Re: Part 16 - No knock, no doorbell (SPOILERS)
Sabrina got back to me on the Cooper age issue. It definitely seems to be a simple continuity mistake (which I won't be telling her haha), which is further emphasized by the case file picture I posted during the marathon. Just thought you guys would like to see! 2017-09-06_8-46-27.jpg "It's no...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
Well, I've only been here a month, but I think it's time to take my leave. I've said pretty much all I have to say about the show, and I think it's time to move on. I would like to extend my thanks, not only to my fellow Profoundly Disappointed, but also to those posters who could genuinely loved t...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
I wrote this in the episode thread, about the reading which makes the most sense to me: "The remaining hour and a half of Twin Peaks: The Return proceeds to dismantle everything that has gone before—all three seasons of it. As foolish as it is to spin theories about any David Lynch film, I’m g...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
The only condescending person was the one who attacked our group for having a different opinion. I have to say this is abit rich, given that people from the profoundly disappointed group have also being trolling the other groups calling anyone that ' has any affection for this shit' a ' pseud' etc....

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
Nah, that would be just dumb. I would rather have a secondary character with a magic glove run in and battle it out with BOB like a character in a superhero movie. Wait...you cant seriously want cooper to return to TP, and battle it out with BOB/Dopplecoop

Seriously, how clueless can you be???? Ah, well, at least it'll keep me LOL-ing throughout the night, that's fo' sure! :D thats pretty condescending.

Re: Gender in Twin Peaks: The Return (SPOILERS)
Something I mentioned in the disappointed group that really bothered me is the different treatment of Darya and Ray due to their gender, which I was reminded of again in Part 17. Darya and Ray are basically the same role. Both of them are pretending to work for Mr. C. when they are actually working ...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
Now that I had some time to think about the final episodes, I wrote down a few of my thoughts about Parts 17-18 and the complete season. Here are some of the things I disliked: Lynch telling us that he hasn't gone soft where it counts. In fact all the gratuitous self-presentation throughout the seri...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
I don't think Lynch hates TP. I think he hates everything that he didn't have total control over, which means basically the majority of season 1 and 2, and TPTR was his chance to retcon/wipe clean/reshape the entire mythology in his image. In doing so he basically undermined if not totally destroye...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
Another iconic part of TP is Dale Cooper himself. This time around both Dale and his Doppelganger have spent less time combined in TP than Dougie did on screen staring at that gunslinger statue in front of the Lucky 7 building. And why was it even necessary for Dougie to be in Las Vegas and isolate...

Re: Twin Peaks Return: The Profoundly Disappointed Support Group (SPOILERS)
The Return is so messed up we do not even know who Shelly is married to! Yes, Bobby seems to be Becky's father and that's all we know. She is married to Bobby, Carl Rodd called her "Shelly Briggs". I was disappointed about only seeing Ben's office, too. Considering the slow pacing and man...

Re: Richard and Linda, Lynch's Masterstroke (SPOILERS)
I also want to add that the "two birds with one stone" comment doesn't even make sense in relation to Cooper and Diane, unless I missed something in the final episodes. If Cooper and Diane are the two birds, what or who his the stone? In my opinion, the comment would make much more sense i...
