Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
261everyone keeps saying that. i couldn't make it 20 minutes into that film before i fell asleep. i'll try again some day.
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
26220 minutes is where it starts getting good, up to about 60 minutes. The rest of it you can probably skip 
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
263Watched part 8 yet again last night and yeah - it gets even better with each viewing.
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
264Now that you've seen Ep 8, maybe give Tree a try again.
Elsewhere our friend Klimov has said the NIN sequence is overlong in Ep 8. He's wrong as shit. Discuss.

Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
265Funny thing is, everyone else I've spoken to who isn't raving fanboy also thought the episode went on too long, both the music video and the white lodge sequence.

Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
267anyone saying that isn't a fan of lynch or only likes his "quirkiness". that episode is exactly what i want from lynch. everyone else can pine away for more wally brando and james somewhere else.
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
268I'm in several TP fan groups on Facebook that number in the tens of thousands membership-wise and have seen nothing but love for every second of 8. I have seen no one outside of everyone's favorite contrarian who had any complaints about the NIN sequence. Throwing the roadhouse in so early is a big signal that we're in for something different, and the very dark, mean song and staging serve as a ritualistic soundtrack to Evil Coop's revival. It was perfect, every goddamn moment.

Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
269Yup, pretty much this. The absolute majority of both fans and critics loved episode 8. Facebook, forums, reddit etc. I've seen a few people in my twitter feed not loving it, but they are few and fare between. And also not that into the show or Lynch to begin with.Alexhead wrote:I'm in several TP fan groups on Facebook that number in the tens of thousands membership-wise and have seen nothing but love for every second of 8.

Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
270I think we lost the causal Peaks viewers back about episode 3 and all that's left now are the diehards. The only person I know who's stopped watching did so because of the kid getting run over scene. She has a kid about that age and I guess it was too close to home for her.
Just cut them up like regular chickens
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
271It was a great episode but, like the rest of the series, could have been tighter in places. 
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
274I really don't know what to say anymore about this show. It's just one amazing episode after another, it's Lynch freed from restraints as a visual artist, it's Mark Frost weaving his most intricate and complex (yet, as we learn with each episode, completely coherent) story in his career, it's actors having the time of their lives (I never thought I would love Matthew Lillard as much)... It's Twin Peaks, and it's a goddamn gift.
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
275agreed, except on lillard. he was great in The Bridge. and frankly, the scooby-doo movies._Marcus_ wrote:I really don't know what to say anymore about this show.

Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
276I thought it was the most boring episode after the first watch, but having watched it a couple more times I appreciate it more. There are some moments/bits that, even with my love of Lynch non sequitors, flat out dragged. But it certainly explained Lillard's connection, started to bring all the investigative teams together, setup for more craziness to come.

Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
277you sure you weren't overly-excited early on and now are settling in? i thought it was way better than, i don't know, 4? i loved it, felt great to me on first watch.
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
278i haven't laughed so hard at an episode yet until last night when
plodding right along...
Re: Twin Peaks [2017]
279One of the moodiest episodes so far. It was great, but a hard thing to watch at times. Felt sort of drained after it was over. As someone said on twitter, it was a "checking in with the bad people" episode.
