The only true Catwoman is Julie Newmar, Lee Meriwether, or Eartha Kitt.

I'm with the idea that the Red Room is a waiting room/semi-physical place that those open to the mystic (tangent below) can access, and then depending on circumstance, can explore/get invaded by the power of the lodges/their own spirit.

Right, so, with Coop's behaviour and speeches in season one vs. one-armed Mike and Hawk's later talk, and previous stuff about shamanic lodges, it's clear that the more spiritually open or aware someone is, or in line with shamanic tradition (clearing one's mind a la 'Tibet'), the more susceptible they are to interacting with the lodges regardless of their deeds (Leland), or if they actively wander into the Grove. The idea seems to fit, anyway. The Log Lady actively defies/channels it, the Major wanders into it, etc.

I don't think the Black and the White Lodges are physical places, but the waiting room is.


Same. I'm reminded of the line in Paradise Lost, "The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven." Your soul is the lens through which you can see the White or the Black Lodge, depending on the alignment of your nature.

David Lynch seems to like to troll his audience and I could totally imagine the first new episode beginning with an interminably long scene purposely designed to drive us insane, just like the first scene in season 2 or the bank scene in the season 2 finale.

I unironically love both of those scenes, and count them among my favorites in the show. What I'm saying is, I'd love this to be a series of strange long (both in time and in distance) shots with old men walking back and forth.

There's going to be an amazing nerd uproar when the first 15 minutes of the new season is a long shot of a weird old guy shambling slowly down a hallway.

I want to see where Jerry Horne is these days. If Ben kept with his "Trying to be good" thing, Jerry probably isn't in a good place. Can't picture him being a "good" person.

It must be kind of a bummer the be the one dude in a fairly large ensemble cast who nobody has any interest in seeing again. All this time has passed and I get absolutely no feeling of nostalgia whatsoever when I think about the James character returning. I don't even find him annoying , which is actually worse in the context of Twin Peaks. He's just a nothing, a non-entity.

Well Ben being "a good person" led to the Hayward family falling apart and (possibly) his own death so Jerry ending up in a bad way would be thematically consistent.

I've said this before, but James needs to return as BOB.

I am in absolute shock at this news. I would say this is a cash grab if it weren't David Lynch because Lynch simply does not do cash grabs. This is so exciting because he's just... I mean, I would be thrilled with *any* new Lynch content - it's only been what, 8 or 9 years since his last proper film. The fact that it's new Twin Peaks content is just...

Certain aspects of Twin Peaks - the film especially - just went places that spoke to me and terrified me in a way that I can only relate to in some sort of half-remembered dream state. A lot of Lynch stuff is like that, for me. It's illogically scary in the way that a night terror can be - like that scene in Mulholland Drive with the man talking about his dream with the scary man behind the particular coffee shop he was at with his friend. But Twin Peaks just goes deeper than that for me. I could go on for paragraphs about why and I'd just come off as crazy.

I'm just thrilled this is happening, so long as Lynch is the one who is really doing it. The only truly important actor to have back is Kyle MacLachlan, in my mind. And maybe The Man From Another Place. Though that's maybe a slightly simplistic view. It's a shame the actor who played Killer BOB (Frank Silva) died so young, he was so menacing and good at that role. Particularly for someone hired as a set dresser originally.

Frank Silva always seemed to be having a ball. The man didn't even have to do anything -- he could just be standing there -- and he still somehow radiated gleeful menace.

Like in this iconic behind-the-scenes photo:



Dude's just smiling, and I feel unsettled. That's the smile of a demon reading your soul and knowing you're destined to an eternity in hell.....orrrrrr it's just a guy chilling out with his coworkers. Or both. Why not both?

My favorite part of that picture is that neither's looking at Silva or the camera; just adds to the unsettling feeling.

Yeah, aside from him it's just a candid photo. It's like if you had a shot of a bunch of people standing around in tableau, doing their own thing, framed on a wall, and then suddenly one of them just turns and looks right at you.

Yeah, the funny thing is that he was out sick that day and nobody remembered him being around when they were filming. He actually said he had trouble remembering some of the things he did that week, and also that they wouldn't let him talk about it, not at all.

Also I got a copy of the Secret Diary of Laura Palmer, and good lord if this wasn't a reprint of a NYT bestseller connected to a hit TV series I'd think I'm on a government watchlist now. God drat, did Lynch tell his daughter what he wanted in it, or did she just, you know, surprise him?

In my imagination she used it as an attempt to rebel, since she was 19 or something when she wrote it and handed it off with an angry, "what do you think daddy?" And Lynch just read it through and said in his best Gordon Cole voice (that I imagine he speaks in all the time), "LOOKS GOOD, SWEETIE! CAN YOU PUT IN ANOTHER ORGY WITH DONNA AFTER THE FIRST COUPLE RAPES?"

I guess in my imagination Jennifer Lynch is just Audrey.
