Twin Peaks: Classic or Dud?

all aspects of experiencing this in 2015 except hopefully for the watching it part are gonna be absolutely miserable

i'm a netflix baby myself but hold tight to your memories of getting this as a inexplicable and unrepeated fuzzy broadcast from the silent nether, xers

Yeah

If the original twin peaks were being produced today the ~fan community~ would be spoiling the fuck out of the big revelation. Selfies on set, per chaki above, and that probably isn't the half of it - I wouldn't be surprised if scripts & stuff leak. I don't care as long as I don't see it. I'd been checking fan sites for casting news but I stopped a while ago when it became clear they were all about the spoilers

i stand by the system that the esteemed Survivor fan community used to use, of splitting up Spoiler boards and Speculation boards. survivor spec was a fun fucking board when i was into that show.

Never seen Twin Peaks but I got the full boxset the other week and we've just started watching. So far it's... strange.

Jennifer Jason Leigh confirmed by Deadline, although maybe they're just using the photos as the confirmation.

Naomi Watts also rumored.

!!!!

JJL and Lynch should've worked together before this tbh, they seem like a natural fit

awesommmmme

deadline confirms miguel ferrer back as Albert. Also, someone on a msg board kind of unofficially mentioned the possible return of Bowie as Jeffries. We'll see on that.

(btw there is a much longer scene with him in the FWIW Missing Pieces stuff that makes more sense out of what happened and is really good. I wonder if the series will draw from any of those cut scenes as flashbacks?)

Are the people in his pic supposed to be TP cast members? Because I don't recognize any of them.

Retweets and comments indicate that it is the cast of NCIS: Los Angeles

All of whom, presumably, will be appearing on Twin Peaks.

What if Lynch isn't making more Twin Peaks at all but is instead taking the reins of a new NCIS show, just imagine

give him NCIS Red, the show they almost made that would have been the first 3rd-generation TV spin off ever (JAG -> NCIS -> NCIS LA -> NCIS Red).

fucked up the link, meant to post Ferrer's twitter where he confirmed signing on.

Is there a way to watch FWIW Missing Pieces on demand, or without having to buy the DVD?

if you're gonna not pay, may as well steal the fan edit

No, steal the film that was edited by David lynch

I don't wanna steal. I'm cool paying, but I'd rather rent it or something. I don't want to have to buy the DVD of a movie I don't like.

tbh most of the deleted scenes will just remind you more of the movie

Laura Dern is joining the cast of David Lynch and Mark Frost’s third season of Twin Peaks, reports Kinsey Lowe for Deadline. And the Playlist‘s Kevin Jagernauth passes along word from Showtime CEO David Nevins that “David Lynch is now more than halfway through his shooting schedule, and the limited series will premiere in the first half of 2017.”

That is excellent news.

Yep

reportedly shooting in Mojave Desert/Joshua Tree

boo. keep it rainy, lynch.

exploring new atmospheric conditions

adapt, son

he should shoot all of the new twin peaks in the interior of his own house

That is excellent news.
totally. honestly, the less lynch plays to the "hey here's your favorite cast member, back again!" nostalgia, the better this will probably be.

definitely

less old cast nostalgia sure, but heather graham said shes not involved, which is weird cuz shes literally the cliffhanger.

lol you wanted the opening scene to be like "I'm... fine, thanks for asking"

25 years later

it helps that i watched the whole series, and pretty much ANY of the series, only once and have no recollection of the cliffhanger aside from Cooper in Red Room.

actually if i could write the first scene it would be chris issak magically appearing in the red room next to coop but i probably posted that upthread. anyway i think it would be cool if heather graham was involved shes still alive and a good actor idk.

my guess is that the first scene will involve the discovery of the corpse of jack nance in a plastic bag by a river

hilarious.

sorry, that was in poor taste.

Did not assume Graham would appear, I'm guessing Lynch and Frost had little fondness for that character.

A recent rumor was that some of the show will be shot internationally.

I'll take a shot in the dark and assume that the entire first episode will be just like Lana Del Rey and Keanu Reeves having a very drawn-out conversation about Richard Nixon while fishing.

I like Annie. And Heather Graham.

A recent rumor was that some of the show will be shot internationally.

I misread this as 'A recent rumor was that some of the show will be shot unintentionally'.

I hope they stick with the pattern of Harriet Hayward turning up in the first episode.

confirmed: Naomi Watts, Tom Sizemore

Fenn is also confirmed back

wow, if i didn't trust lynch this would almost be too good to be true and reeks of fan service -- watts especially. but, wow.

Jim Belushi is also reportedly involved to counter any fan service.

I'd honestly be more concerned if Lynch wasn't engaged in some Billy Ray Cyrus-esque, out-of-left-field casting.
