What I noticed immediately:
Cooper's room in the Great Northern was 315.

Ep3&4 spoilers
Cooper coming back to form is going to be epic. His impaired state is the biggest cocktease but its like you've been edging for the past 25 years and youre about to blow, and you know it.

You should put this in spoiler tags.
EDIT: well, it looks like a lot of people are posting ep 3 and 4 stuff

I propose "Doop".
It's a combination of Doppleganger and Coop, but also is homophonous with "dupe", to go along with him being a duplicitous duplicate.
Agreed 100%
I already rewatched all four episodes. Not only were they still fucking entertaining, but they felt so different the second time around. For example, the screne in Ep 1 where both kids are watching the box... it felt like ages the first time I was watching. The second time it just happened right away. Everything felt different but I was able to pick up on a lot more too.
It feels like hes moving things along at a slow pace and a fast pace simultaneously. He really lets some moments linger to really sink in and appreciate what's happening. I fucking love it.

Ok Cooper in jail might be one of the creepiest things I've ever seen. It's like a vampire wanting you to let it in your house, or like in the Thing when Wilford Brimley was trying to get out of that shack.
I think he is in him ("Phillip Jeffries" makes it sound like he's going to deliver Bob back to the lodge), he's just not possessing him. If Hastings was indeed temporarily possessed by Bob when he had the dream, that could mean that Doop is acting like a vector for the parasite. Allowing him to move around somewhat freely to indulge in new pain and pleasures wherever they go.
People seem a little too eager to shoehorn Audrey into every identity-related mystery (same with Annie, and this is the one I'm guilty of). I will be disappointed if Audrey turns out to play a major role in solving the Coop situation. Not only did she not know the man well, she had no connection to the supernatural subplots of Twin Peaks.
I've been trying to make Doop happen since day 1 (it's not going to happen).

Yes that story line is actually more interesting to me than what's going on in Twin Peaks. So is Robert Forrester supposed to be Truman's brother? He's awesome.

Not with that attitude!
Totally agree. I've watched all four episodes twice, except #4 (which I've watched thrice
)I love it and the pacing is perfect.
There it is. Exactly. Get over your earthly disappointments. Just go with it.

Yeah. That makes sense(Cooper 25 years later) because I always wondered why Cooper looked old in that part.

Are we not spoiler tagging episode 3 and 4 stuff anymore?
I think the point was Lynch would like it if it gave you a weird theatrical impression. Not that you simply hated it.

I strongly preferred episodes 1&2 to 3&4.
The scenes that dragged on in the first pair of episodes were, at the very least, tense. The ones in 3&4 (
) were just silly or dull.
In any event, my big hope right now is that the charcoal ghost from episode 2's jail scene ends up being significant and not just Lynch being Lynch. That thing was creepy in a really compelling way.

IDK what it is about that part of the episode, but after all the dark and twisted and crazy shit before it, that scene + this song was such an emotional moment for me. I liked seeing James and, heck, even felt for him a little.

I liked all four episodes about the same but for different reasons. I've said this before, but each episode so far feels like Lynch but different sides of Lynch. I feel all four episodes are very good at what they try to do, but which you enjoy the most will be completely dependent what you're looking for. I think that's a big part of the reason you see so many differing opinions on each episode pretty evenly, each feels focused on a different tone of Lynch. Each episode also seems focused so far on two 'main' plots and a few smaller scenes.

I'll probably take a few days to rewatch the first four episodes before the next batch. So much happened and a lot was confusing. I still have trouble sorting out the Coops lol.
It's a great song, but I'm always going to remember James is still cool. Hes always been cool. when I hear it from now on lmao. Damn it Shelly.

Lynch actually had posters made of the two thumbs down he got for Lost Highway, and added "Two More Great Reasons to See..."
It means exactly the opposite though ?
That bad cooper needs to go back to the lodge, with bob, aka where bob is => the lodge.
If anything it proves bad cooper isn't bob himself or it would have been "bob you need to go back" or "you and bob need to go back".

James isn't cool.
Bobby, though, is. I want Bobby to be the hero of this.

Have we had a conversation about wtf happened with Laura Palmer in the Red Room?

I asked but I don't think it ever really sparked any discussion. Certainly seemed unpleasant.
It seemed like she got punished for giving Cooper information? Hard to say for sure

Also I don't know if anyone posted this... saw it on Reddit
An extended version of that strange Jack scene was leaked

Okay. So finally rewatched all 4. Almost all of part 3 and part 4 up to the
scene looks like raw unprocessed video, where everything else looks to have been processed to look filmic. I didn't realise at the time, but all the bits I struggled with on first watch look like raw video. I can't fathom why this would be a directorial choice... But it would have to be a big mistake. That said I hope to hell that no other parts look like raw video, because obviously it throws me right out.
It's not like it's just the
scenes. It's everything.
Then we cut to
I'm leaning towards mistake. Anyone else notice this or have thoughts on it?
At least I know why I struggled with Part 3 so much now.

It's not like it's just the

The sheriff's office scenes, the roadhouse scenes, the Philadelphia scenes.
Denise's office and it doesn't switch back.

Very curious as to what she told him. What kind of information could she provide now a days? We know who her killer is.
Maybe she told him what Bob's plan is? Or how to capture him?
And maybe the arm heard her and banished her from the room. Or not the arm but the other arm thing that attacked Cooper in the lodge before he fell through the floor

I wish Tom Waits did a Lynch film. That would have been fun.
If the teasers are any indication, the worst (video quality) is yet to come. The scenes related to Carl Rodd in particular looked so raw, I assumed Lynch just sent them some unprocessed footage while he was still editing.
I feel like this has been Lynch's preferred style ever since he fell in love with DV. I don't expect it to "improve" a ton. I think he wants it to look raw, for whatever reason.
