I've said it before & I'll say it again: Even "bad" Twin Peaks is great camp (& wicked parody of soap-opera-type drama, even in unintentional) and the black lodge storyline segue into wtf finale totally makes up for whatever shitness claims might be directed at the second-season lull IMO.

i guess that i sort of enjoy the descent into campiness. i think the only sub-plot i truly loathe is the one involving the woman and james, but i also hate everything involving james, so that's a given.

<3 that subplot. The one I can't quite get with is the Andy/Dick/progeny-o-Satan storyline, but at least that one only lasts a couple episodes.

I'll admit that James is, in general, very punchable.
yes, with a brick.

joan chen is a pretty woman, but after the first season all the plotlines with her go nowhere (er, she shot agent cooper why exactly?), and her acting is consistently painful.
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 03:38 (fourteen years ago) link
actually, the whole mill/ghostwood thing, on a recent reviewing, is pretty dull from the start.
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 03:39 (fourteen years ago) link
i love all that local politics shit!
― kid cruti (roxymuzak), Monday, 3 August 2009 03:39 (fourteen years ago) link
when it's purely humorous it's funny, but all the machinations with catherine/ben horne/josie/hank/leo/etc. get pretty dull--and incoherent--pretty fast.
i guess that was their "plot B" all along, but it never seemed worthy to me. (or maybe "plot B" was james/donna, and this was "plot C"--i dunno if they theorized TV like that back in 1990; sure do now.)
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 03:40 (fourteen years ago) link
IMO of course.
you hate pretty much everything about this show afaict

Laura Palmer was on an episode of House recently and it was so strange to see becasue I haven't really ever seen her in anything else.

*sigh*
tehresa and roxymuzak, you can read upthread for my more positive thoughts on TP, dating back to 2003 ... as i welcomed you to do a few posts above.
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 03:49 (fourteen years ago) link
also, if i'm not mistaken, isn't roxymuzak like a 40-year-old single mom or something? then why is she posting like a 12-year-old who hasn't had her snack yet?
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 03:50 (fourteen years ago) link
because im 29 and havent had my snack yet

I'll say it: James is hot. Minor league hot, but still hot.

ONE OF THE MOST CLASSICALLY LOL THINGS IN THE HISTORY OF EARTH
― kid cruti (roxymuzak), Monday, 3 August 2009 04:58 (fourteen years ago) link
that's one of the better moments in the 2nd season, and not surprisingly it's a david lynch-directed episode.
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 05:35 (fourteen years ago) link
i wouldn't call it LOL (at least, it doesn't make me LOL), it's certainly odd but quite beautiful in its way.
i'm sorry my posting style = being a pain.
your posting style was just asinine. it's telling me to "fuck off" that qualifies you as being a pain. but as a wise man once said around these parts, i don't even know who you are.
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 05:37 (fourteen years ago) link
one thing that makes that sequence so odd = do we ever see james with a guitar, or singing, prior to this episode or after it? i don't believe you. it ties in, i suppose, with his whole persona ("wild one"-style biker, hair that hints at an elvis pompadour), but it just announces itself as a conceit so forcefully. why does this out-of-nowhere moment please me so much when others irritate me? i suppose because it doesn't pretend to be of any consequence to the plot.
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 05:40 (fourteen years ago) link
i don't believe SO.
sorry for typos! writing fast.

i find it really a pain when people don't check for typos before they post
― tehresa, Monday, 3 August 2009 05:43 (fourteen years ago) link
i read the phantom drums as a reference to all the musicals with their phantom orchestras playing behind a tap-dancing/singing gene kelly, etc.
lynch is obv fascinated with the ontology of recorded sound -- see the "no hay banda" scene in MULHOLLAND DR, the lip synching in BLUE VELVET, etc.
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 05:43 (fourteen years ago) link
ok tehresa let's talk about twin peaks now, OK?
― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 05:44 (fourteen years ago) link
thats funny, though
― kid cruti (roxymuzak), Monday, 3 August 2009 05:44 (fourteen years ago) link

― amateurist, Monday, 3 August 2009 07:32 (fourteen years ago) link
only a few people i know like it. whereas i think it is so mercilessly scary and weird that i fucking love it. especially the 'pink room' scene.. wish there was more of it up other than what this asshole posted.
