I SHOULD KEEP MY DUMB MOUTH SHUT INSTEAD OF SPEWING HORSESHIT ABOUT THE ORBITAL MECHANICS OF THE JAMES WEBB SPACE TELESCOPE.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT A LAGRANGE POINT IS?
Hmmm... someone didn't get the memo. I've been watching the blu-ray set of the new season, and the disc icon for every disc except the third says "Twin Peaks: A Limited Event Series". Disc 3's icon says "Twin Peaks Season 3".

Somebody gettin' fired!

Even more powerful afterward, when you realize he’s the Leland from the timeline where she went missing. The amount of stuff that clicks on rewatch is crazy.

I rewatched Fire Walk with Me, just some thoughts about it:

Garmonbozia is something like Lacan's jouissance, pleasure-pain that's caused by the pursuit of something that one lacks, but enjoys the lack of at the same time. Creamed corn looks like gold, and it functions like a kind of currency among the BL spirits, similar to how companies pray on people's desires by offering them unattainable products (like impossible beauty, impossible love etc suggested by advertisement) in the pursuit of profit, jouissance economics. This makes sense to me wrt the scene in season 3 where the drug addicted girl takes a hit and basks in this kind of creepy golden glow, feeling pleasure and suffering at the same time. Desire sustains samsara, the endless cycle of suffering caused by attachments, which is the opposite of the epicurean Cooper, who just wants simple coffee and donuts and stuff and doesn't form passionate attachment (and when he does, BOB can prey on him). Similarly the townspeople can't just accept Laura's death and move on, because of the jouissance-attachment to her memory, like when Bobby cries his rear end off when he even just sees her picture, and her theme song plays.

That’s what happened after Coop hosed with the timeline and tried to rescue Laura causing her to get magicked away

I think the implication is that the Leyland trapped in the Redroom is not a murderer.

I could be totally wrong about that and I don’t know what it means beyond that because loving Twin Peaks man.

Yeah I realize asking for an explanation is futile here but since so many people seemed to have a eureka moment it seems like there's something there that I don't grasp

When we see Leland and he says “Find Laura”, we’re assuming he’s the Leland from the original show timeline, the one who murdered Laura. When Coop finally gets out of the lodge, he does just that, finds Laura.

But in doing so, he creates the new timeline where Laura isn’t murdered, she just disappears. Leland never kills her.

Because of the time fuckery of the lodge, what we’re getting is actually the Leland from the new timeline, a father who asks the FBI agent to find his lost daughter.

In the opening episodes Laura is extracted screaming from the Red Room and in the closing episodes she is extracted screaming from the night where she's due to be murdered after Cooper leads her away. Each of these are followed with Leland in the Red Room urging Cooper to find Laura. People are for some reason deciding on the second one being the 'authentic' context, even though the finale pretty much fucks the idea that Cooper created some discrete separate timeline in waking reality, let alone one that applies in the Lodge.

It's also interesting that even though Laura went missing in the new timeline, Leland most likely still molested her up until that point, so he's not innocent. But when he said "i never killed anyone", does Theresa Banks somehow survive in this timeline?

Eh... Both kinda sound a bit like Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings at times, if you really wanna go in that direction - which not coincidentally was used to great effect by Lynch in The Elephant Man it's worth noting

James on the road is probably the only part of S2 I would throw out entirely.

No idea, but Lynch was rather a cutie-pie in his younger days; he could have managed it.

His biography doesn't mention it at all, he was a pretty dork in highschool and wore suit jackets all the time. In college he was in a relationship and pretty much stayed in one (different ones) for the rest of his life. I don't really get the sense from his book that he was that type, but I dunno.

he writes those characters so he can live all those experiences he missed out on vicariously through them, same with robert loggia's road rage scene in lost highway
