Twin Peaks will have a 2-part finale on September 3rd, 8-10pm. Assuming there are still 18 parts total, that means that they'll be skipping a week somewhere, most likely July 4th weekend.
You sure about that?

Checks out for me with no breaks.
That's not what the Ronnie Rocket script reads like. It's really goofy, full of special effects, with colorful cartoon characters and a whole lot of boobs.
It's less Eraserhead and more Frankenstein's High School Musical... crossed with cartoony sexploitation noir detective story culminating in some kind of Harry Potter Dragonball Z superhero stage battle.
Yep. That screenplay is a little bit weird.
Glad to see the trailer park where Chet Desmond disappeared.
I hope his fate is addressed!
Ah. The diner with modern cars in front of it looks so strange lol.
I don't tend to measure the passage of time in cars, so that hasn't even registered with me, but I'm super curious what Lynch is going to do about modern technology and our dependence on it, since he always seemed to shy away from showing that stuff on screen.Ah. The diner with modern cars in front of it looks so strange lol.
Twin Peaks was one of Lynch's most anachronistic places and this might be the most advanced mobile phone to appear in a David Lynch film (I'm not sure if computers even exist in whichever dimension he came from), so I'm probably going to freak out the moment Dale Cooper pulls out his fffucking telephone.
That new teaser gives me FWWM vibes. Probably the colour scheme.
I dunno. He often assigns mystical properties to common objects and concepts (Fire Walk With Me makes a big deal out of elec·tric·i·ty), but it's not like he's telling cautionary tales.Don't many of Lynch's films revolve around how technology annihilates men from others? Eraserhead showed it with the industrial city (and the constant takes on his heater) and Lost Highway showed with the cellphone and recording stuff.
Although Twin Peaks does not revolve around that theme, I could see Lynch introducing it this time around.
Well, it does feature some locations from (and related to) Fire Walk With Me. Plus, the whole widescreen thing.That new teaser gives me FWWM vibes. Probably the colour scheme.
Actually, looking at them side-by-side, it seems like an Instagram bomb went off when they filmed that. RIP blue.
That's some quality craftsmanship, Carl. Nice modern rebranding, Carl. Where's my goddamn hot water, Carl?
The lighting reminded me of FWWM too, but that might just be the difference between shooting a film (which Lynch has described this new season as) and shooting a 1990 network tv show. :lol
The "made for television film" is the International pilot. Lynch added roughly 30 minutes to the end of the normal pilot to give it a conclusion and make it a standalone thing. The ending of the international pilot is completely different than what eventually happens in the show, but some of the footage he shot does get repurposed for the show proper.So before starting this, I'm reading around the Internet and found on Wikipedia, that the pilot of Season 1 was originally shown as a made-for-television film in Europe, while elsewhere it was shown as double-length episodes of approximately 90 minutes. Is there any difference between the two?
I know that there's an International pilot out there that I should ignore for now, but what about the two I described?
Most likely, yes. And the movie, too.Maybe a stupid question, but do I have to watch season 1 and 2 to enjoy this?
Just finished the pilot of Season 1, first time watching this show, and that one long episode. There's so many characters that I had a little hard time keeping track of who is who, and who is bonding with who, but picked up on the sheriff, Agent Cooper, the Asian woman who owns the treadmill land, James, Joey, Bobby and his friend and the family of the victim. So I think I got the grasp of it.
It can also be seen this is a show from another era in how they act and in the portrayal of some of the interaction, and some of the acting is a bit wobbly, while most of it is actually pretty good. It's some hard stuff to watch and see what these people are going through. I love the music and the atmosphere.
Looking forward to binge watch Season 1 tomorrow.
For a long time I had the that stance, but I've been lowering my expectations. It could easily turn out to be a huge mistake for a number of reasons.People saying that this can't even possibly be garbage are too optimistic. All that can be done is hope.

That said with the circumstances behind it's creation I think it's probable that it will at the very least have amazing moments.

I would be just fine with that to be honest. Twin Peaks was always most powerful and interesting when it went off the deep end. I do think this could be much more straight forward than a lot of people expect though, thanks to Frost's involvement.I still say it's gonna end up too Lynchian for a lot of the fans of the show. Expecting almost twenty hours of just madness.

I haven't read it. I'm sure there'll be tie-ins in there, but I highly doubt it will be essential since David Lynch hasn't read it and implied he disagrees with Frost's take there.So guys, sadly I don't tave the time to re-watch the entire series and FWWM before the new season, I've had the entire mystery unopened for more than a year.
I am wondering if i should put watching the premiere off for a few days and read The Secret History though - for any of you that have read the book, I know you can't say for certain, but does it look to be essential for maximal enjoyment of the new series? Do you envisage lots of references to the book?

Airing on the 22nd in the UK, just saw the trailer on Sky Movies.
Interesting approach to marketing, they showed the ending of the second season and then cut to Cooper emerging from the dark. Props for not having a trailer that reveals all the major beats.
I don't know if it's wise to underestimate Frost's own brand of weirdness. Plus, the way cast members have described Lynch's approach to filming this show makes it sound like there isn't much Frost could do if he wanted to keep Lynch grounded, or anywhere near Earth's orbit.I would be just fine with that to be honest.

The dossier and the character reporting on it (of whom we know next to nothing) might show up in the new show, but most of its actual story revolves around faux-historical trivia and the misadventures of Dougie Milford.So guys, sadly I don't tave the time to re-watch the entire series and FWWM before the new season, I've had the entire mystery unopened for more than a year.

Where's that interview from, Flip?
Yeah, this is my main concern. I generally like the show, but I don't know if I could take 20 hours of Fire Walk With Me.I still say it's gonna end up too Lynchian for a lot of the fans of the show. Expecting almost twenty hours of just madness.
Not sure what magazine it is but you can read more here: http://www.dugpa.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2644&start=4020#p73810

Edit: It's from a magazine called Dazed
Ah damn, it requires a registration. But thanks anyway! By searching the magazine, I found a Kyle MacLachlan-made playlist called Coffeetime. Pretty good.
Yeah it's kind of annoying they changed the board to require registration just to lurk, but I'd say it's worth it. Lot of good discussion to be had there.
I'll probably do it later this week, it must be filled with great fans in there.
Which reminds me, is anyone doing the OT for the new season? We need a MGS4-level OT.
