I never dug twin peaks the return, got bored with it way before the feted 8th episode, although I did fast forward and watch it alone.

I never saw anything in it that I've not seen him do elsewhere a lot better and it just seemed very indulgent to me.

But then I've never done dmt...

but Lynch / Frost, Twin Peaks: The Return is a masterpiece - some of the Black Lodge sequences made me exclaim "someone has smoked DMT!"
and Inland Empire evokes ketamine so profoundly that it blows my mind that Lynch doesn't do drugs.

Guess it shows that all those states of mind are things that exist inside our heads already

Ep 8 is overrated but the best episodes come after that and the intensity builds and everything comes together at the end. Its a masterpiece and even makes the original series better retrospectively. Best tv series ever.

8 is really bad. 8 is everything that is worst about lynch. its why craner says lynch is the stupidest crassest director of all time and should be mutilated.

but the series as a whole is worth watching. i can understand why catalog didnt like it cos you do need an attention span longer than an 8 year olds to get through it

Everyone is talking about episode 8, I presume that was the one with the guy going "This is the water and this is the well" or whatever it was?

8 is what is called 'Guinness Surrealism' which is a genre popularised by a run of Guiness adverts

I remember when that advert came out and I had a prophetic dream in which I won loads of money by betting on that song to be Christmas number one, so next day I went to a bookie to try and place that bet but they just laughed at me. Good job cos I don't think they even released it as a single in the end.

Twin Peaks is gold, heathens

The Sopranos prequel - I know this is a music thread but what the fuck was that? Flatter than east anglia, appalling writing, kinda made me feel bad for Joey Diaz

Sequels, prequels, never equals

The twin peaks arm wrestling scene is the best arm wrestling scene ever filmed . "Commence..arm wrestling!!"

granted i can only think of one other arm wrestling scene which is The Fly but it was pretty good

Kyle maclachlans performance as arguably 5 characters is kind of astounding and im amazed he could pull off a psychopathic shark eyed villain as well as he did. The black eye contacts helped a bit but still

lynch said he cast him in blue velvet because he had an innocent quality but also had some hidden darkness lurking deep down, and 30 years later he proved himself right and delved fully in. Mr C... man what an evil bastard . "I dont need.. anything. I WANT"
