It's probably delusion 1

Ponzi Posted January 13 Posted January 13 3 minutes ago, sunbathinganimal said: what about Little Nicky Had to google him 'cause I didn't remember him nor Dick. Diabolical, character and storyline. I'll put them under 'supernatural'. 1
Ponzi Posted January 13 Posted January 13 These silly storylines remind me a lot of stuff that also seemed left field on the Return. Remember Red? They serve for world-building purposes imo.
monologueNacafe Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Watching the original now. I had only seen the first episode in a film/tv class back in college. Outside of a couple of weird aspects I like it. the actor who plays Laura’s father is terrible though
ATRL Moderator Ampersand13 Posted January 14 ATRL Moderator Posted January 14 Okay, I'm on Part 10 of The Return (I had to take a break for a quick trip to LA) but I'll be back at it either tonight or tomorrow evening 1

Also can sum up James as a character too. 1

TeemoR Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Best show ever. I need to re-visit the later season released a few years ago. It was super weird, but brilliant.
sunbathinganimal Posted January 15 Author Posted January 15 I forgot how awful michael ontkean is in the episode after [redacted] dies
monologueNacafe Posted January 16 Posted January 16 The show got annoying so I stopped. Quite a few strange choices 1
sunbathinganimal Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 just about finished my S1/2 rewatch (only finale left to go) and tbh the middle of S2 wasn't as bad as I remember. There was usually just enough important **** happening in each episode to keep me engaged. It really does ramp up towards the end too, I'd say the two/three eps before the finale are all pretty good 1
sunbathinganimal Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 also I'm sorry y'all but Andy just sucks, hate the performance, hate his storylines, he's not funny at all
sunbathinganimal Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 (edited) also they really tried to sell us on Audrey being in love with JJW after like 2 episodes at least Cooper and Annie have actual chemistry Edited January 19 by sunbathinganimal
sunbathinganimal Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 (edited) speaking of Annie, queen deserved better I get that Lynch probably resented the character but he really should have found a place for her in The Return Edited January 19 by sunbathinganimal 1
BeachRat Posted January 19 Posted January 19 in the middle of a Lynch marathon (went with LA trilogy for starters, go hard or go home) but missing Twin Peaks so it’s coming FIRE WALK WITH ME THE MOVIE SUPREMACY

I love so much about it but honestly it's probably the scariest film I've ever seen and idk if I wanna put myself through that right now 1

During my rewatch I made the mistake of putting it on around 11PM or midnight alone in the house do not recommend lol 1
Ponzi Posted January 19 Posted January 19 I know FWWM is scary to a lot of people; I think I've even seen it on top of scariest films ever. But to me idk, it just feels... sad? The end credits with that shot of Laura always leave me tearing up. She's such a special character to me.
sunbathinganimal Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 ******* hell I forgot how good the S2 finale is, honestly might be my favourite episode of TV ever
sunbathinganimal Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 even if you didn't already know Lynch was back you would immediately be able to tell, I forgot how much it legit feels like a movie. the scenes in the Black Lodge are so ******* good
