Guy Mann posted:Inversely, if any work was actually done in the dark period before they gave Lynch full control I really hope that let it go once the series is over just so we can see how big a bullet we dodged. It's an adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Tower, only with James as Roland and Windom Earle as the Man in Black.

I have this friend who's kind of crazy, who is unspoiled and working through the show and currently at s2e17, and he just....out of NOWHERE started talking about nuclear bombs. He posted a picture of a mushroom cloud in Skype, and I was confused and wondering if he'd googled Twin Peaks and gotten spoiled. I ask why he posted it, and he merely said "so is BOB a Surinam toad." "??? Why did you post the bomb."' "isn't it obvious? Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy. it's a little jumbled and jivey, but I might point out the first H-bomb test was codenamed Ivy MIKE. you expect me, the weapons fetishist, not to know my bombs? and how bob (Robert)'s name was chosen probably as a reference to Robert (j. oppenheimer)? plus BOB sounds so innocuous and goofy" He's Quoting "Mairzy Doats," that song possessed Leland sings that makes the Horne brothers start dancing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B62P6Gm9jpE  Okay okay. Is this a coincidence? Is this just my friend reaching with no real info and getting VERY close to the truth, or did he just blow open a new theory?So I say, "What? Start over." "BOB, the evil spirit, puts letters under dead peoples fingernails. those are in the process of spelling "Robert, or Robertson, indicating Leland, son of robert. Bob is short for Robert. Robert is the first name of oppenheimer, the famous nuclear scientist and "I am become death" quoter. going with the nuke theme, MIKE's name must be from IVY MIKE, the first H-Bomb. its exemplar as a triumph of hate as well as an antithesis of that naturalistic woodsy vibe twin peaks works on." Then he started to talk about how cool he thinks nukes are, and I tried saying that nukes are Bad, on a fundamental and spiritual level. But I can hardly wait for him to catch up and see this past episode.

OK, I love this show but this episode annoyed the poo poo out of me. Instead of any kind of storyline progression, we got... whatever the hell that was. I mean, couldn't they have split that up over several episodes? And since there's no episode next week, it's going to be at least three weeks between storyline progress. I say "at least" because who knows if the next episode will be more of the same? Hated it. Ugh.

Finally caught the latest episode and I'm pretty sure that was the loving coolest rendering of an atomic bomb I've ever seen. I'm an absolute sucker for long cuts and that one was intense. Can anyone match or surpass that?

Sooo, what I manage to get from last episode: - a nuclear blast (probably a test?) brought Bob in to this world - to balance it, or to fight it, or something, the Giant creates Laura and sends her into this world Heck if I know what to think of anything else edit: vvvv yeah, the sign is the same from S1 Elias_Maluco fucked around with this message at 12:36 on Jun 27, 2017 |

IMO, the sign says "The Bar" and there's also a gun with an animated Bang coming out of it. Nobody on the show has ever uttered the phrase "Bang Bang Bar," and that hasn't shown up in the books, let alone any of the TV or film scripts. The building itself seems like it's obviously more than just a bar. It's two stories tall (plus an attic) and looks to be way larger than just the area we see in the show. stanovich fucked around with this message at 13:12 on Jun 27, 2017 |

You know, something I am realizing is that, uhh...\ Go back and watch the scene from episode 3 where Dougie blows up. It should look pretty familiar after episode 8, at least several of the "elements" that Dougie appeared to be composed of seemed reminiscent of things that we saw in episode 8. The gold orbs, for example - we saw an one instance of a (large) gold orb representing Laura Palmer, and we saw a black orb representing Bob. We also a creature with what appeared to be a face consisting largely of one mouth vomiting a stream of stuff - both in episode 8, and in the scene where Dougie explodes. think in the scene where Dougie exploded, it was a black orb (like the one with Bob's face on it that we saw birthed from the vomit stream and coming out of DoppleCoop). Is Bob the only one who gets a Black Sphere? Can he create other Black sphere entities, and is that was Dougie Jones was? But Dougie Jones seemed to consist both of a hosed up black sphere/black thing that appeared to have a serious power charge behind it when it exploded (atomically? Mike did cover his eyes and seemed scared on a plane of reality where one ought not show fear). And it also consisted of the Gold Sphere, which seemed large at first, and then turned into a physically small size. After this episode, I am believing more and more that Dougie-Cooper needs that Gold Sphere - or perhaps one very very similar to it - in order to wake up? It seems like golden/black spheres represent souls with inherently positive or negative charges... Perhaps like an atom is positively or negatively charged, who knows?

I definitely always thought the actual name was supposed to be The Bang Bang Bar. Sure, I don't remember if characters ever actually called it that in the old seasons, but I wouldn't say the sign is exactly ambiguous.

Why bother giving the bar at The Roadhouse it's own name?

I don't think the gold orb is necessarily Laura Palmer, "real person", but more likely the Laura we see this season in the lodge/waiting room. The one TMFAP calls his cousin in the original series and remarks how much she looks like Laura. The one that says sometimes her arms bend back. The one who removes her face to reveal a pure white light to Cooper.

This ep was good and nuclear test sequence owned but holy poo poo idk if I'll ever be able to not tune out every musical guest scene in this season The only band scenes I remember from the original is like Julee Cruise maybe? But I seem to remember most of those scenes mostly being background for the characters that were actually in the bar interacting. Am I going just blocking out a bunch of these scenes or are the cuts to a musical guests just a thing on the new show? I guess I tend to give Lynch the benefit of the doubt that he's just loving with the audience or fans of the original in some way here because the only one of these scenes this season with actual characters at the bar that I remember is when we get that hilarious line about James still being cool, but man I find these scenes really jarring and cringey after dealing with the extreme slow burn of the show, maybe that's the point? Who the gently caress knows with this guy "you want julee cruise singing in the background of donna and james reuniting in the roadhouse? gently caress you here's a cut to the nine inch nails with no known characters in sight" -the lynchmeister
