At that Twin Peaks panel, Lynch actually let a few tidbits out, such as the the bathrobe that
Wonder what that means?
Probably the biggest thing Lynch said is a comment on the ending. Someone asked if he always planned that to be the ending to season 3 of Twin Peaks, if that's what he was working towards the whole time. Lynch responded simply with, "That's the ending." When asked if he could elaborate, Lynch then said, "This is the ending. It's right there. You all just saw the ending." He didn't go any further than that, and didn't clarify if he meant just of the season or the whole series, but he said it very boldly and seemed he wanted to say that more than answer the question, so I do think he and Frost may have decided no more Twin Peaks.
red haired Diane wears is Lucy's bathrobe you see earlier in the season.

I'm sorry, but... what is the revelation here? We see Lucy give her the bathrobe. I don't think it was ever implied that the bathrobe transformed into its identical doppelganger.
That's what I want to know. So this is recorded, Lynch spends a lot of his time talking on actors but says a few things sprcifically. The two things he brings up specifically without being asked about it is that Jeffries is not a teapot, he crafted the machine himself, but if people see it as a teapot that's okay. And for some reason he brings up the bathrobe really excitedly, and asks the audience who's bathrobe is that, someone eventually says Lucy's, and he responds that they're damn right, and not to forget it. I don't know why he brought it up, why this excited him so much, and it's even stranger it's one of the few things he brought up himself, like he wanted people to remember this.
Is this archived somewhere on the interweb? Without actually hearing it, I get the impression that he's simply fixating on Lucy's goodness and ironic competence. Kimmy Robertson mentioned that when Lynch explained the character to her, he made it very clear that she's "absolutely not ditzy." He seems to really want people to respect the character, even though she's a Moran.
I feel the same. I'd be happy if there was more because the show is so unique in itself that I just love seeing the episodes unfold, but I'm perfectly happy with how it ended, much much better than the season 2 cliffhanger we would have been stuck with otherwise.
Perfect.
I started watching the Blu-Rays, and the picture quality is out of this world. So many details, like Freddie's glove in Episode 2, really pop on this version.
I can only imagine how good this sounds with a proper sound system.
David Lynch has a t-shirt shop, US Amazon only currently (sadly, won't ship to the UK).

A year out, in hindsight the one element of S3 I really intensely dislike is pointless Freddie and his stupid-ass glove.

Good interview with Kyle about process. He also says he's very keen on doing more, but stresses that it's all up do Lynch.

If you're enjoying the series, I highly recommend going back and finishing S2 and FWWM.
It was an acid trip to those of us that consumed everything. You will be beyond lost.
You need to finish S2 and watch the movie first. They're vital.
Thanks for the info! I've always stopped during the Windom Earle stuff because it wasn't interesting/I couldn't force myself to watch it but I'll see if I can rent FWWM or something.
Although lost, I'm enjoying it so far because it's so weird.
lmao at Japanese Dougie's Hello
anyways I recently discovered Beach House's Teen Dream (super late to the party on that one) and man, the influence Lynch and this show had on contemporary music has been hella understated.
excellent album, and clearly got some Julee Cruise sound in there. surprised they didn't play at the Roadhouse

I don't think anyone can blame you for being put off by Windom Earle's goofy antics buuuuut it is worth watching the last 3 or so Episodes of S2. The finale of S2 is phenominal.
There's a watching guide somewhere on the internet which shows which episodes are "skippable", but at the very least watching the finale of S2 would provide vitally important context to S3.
I'm following NYT's watch guide for season 2 and I'll watch FWWM after and hopefully the stuff I've seen so far will make sense. Thanks!
Oh that Japanese trailer is fantastic. I only remembered some of the lines, but it's really intriguing.
I don't blame you for giving up on it. It is way longer than it should have been but I'd just watch it all to be honest. I know opinions on this are very different but I very much enjoyed Season 2. If not for the mystery, then for the characters and town.
Enjoy the show. Second half of Season 3 is absolutely crazy.
I cheated and read a synopsis instead but yeah, when things started to pick up, it was great. I really enjoyed the payoffs and the homages to the original series
like James's beautiful performance
Time to read theories and explanations.
You read... synopsis? For Firewalk With Me? Didn't even watch S2 finale? Oh geez, man. I honestly don't know what to say.
But hey, I'm glad you liked S3!

I don't think, generally, he is very well informed politically and has been all over the map - admired certain traits of Reagan's, considered himself a libertarian for a spell before voting mostly as a Democrat in recent years (firmly for Obama in 2012, Sanders in the 2016 primary) but I think there's something to what he's saying there.
"Greatest" need not mean good. Trump can be absolutely appalling while also going down as one of the most consequential & important Presidents in history. Reaganism and Reaganomics was harmful baloney for many millions of people but won two landslide victories and in doing so, reshaped the nation in his (for the time extreme) Republican image, despite having a Democratic house for his entire term.
Trump is an absolute child yet he's got an entire party eating out of his hand, oftentimes completely contradicting whatever it is they've claimed are deeply held beliefs before. It's pathetic that it's taken someone like that to expose the horseshit that is the American political system attempting to function in the modern era, but it's happening before everyone's eyes. Obama is a great man who should go down as a great President for overcoming the obstacles that he did and maintaining dignity and decorum in the face of unhinged and unprecedented bile, but his tenure was marked by a ludicrous gridlock thanks to the Republican Party, and in hindsight maybe he wishes he'd dished out a few more low blows.
I would like to think that he's a flash in the pan, but there's every chance that Trump's ascendency has ushered in an era where a maverick outsider from anywhere on the political map can conceivably win the Presidency. I won't be surprised if the next Democratic candidate ends up being someone of hitherto minor status that Sanders ends up getting behind early, assuming he doesn't run again himself.

Lynch voted for Bernie in the primaries (his Twitter feed shows as much), but Johnson? And the Trump thing? Ehhh
Considering he can't even remember who he voted for, plus the fact he's been suggested by his physicians to stop reading up things about his own movies (I imagine it extends to politics), I imagine that he's not up to date with the everyday happenings in the world, and says such things that come off as ignorant. Or that's my reasoning, because you don't see in his films ideas that would imply a support of Trump. Quite otherwise.
EDIT: Uff, I knew Lynch was peculiar (to say the least), but he comes absolutely weird in that interview:

He already made much of Ronnie Rocket by recycling those ideas into a new version of Twin Peaks. There's really no point in bringing it back anymore, especially without Michael J. Anderson.
Plus, that's a big budget screenplay. The Borb fight was bad enough, I don't even want to imagine what Ronnie Rocket's Dragon Ball Z High School Musical stage battle finale would look like on a TV budget.
Whatever he does next, I hope it's something new (just as long as it's not a movie about his garbage idol, the maharishi).
For some reason I could really easily see him voicing a character on Bojack Horseman.
I'd imagine Netlix will give home whatever budget and time he wants. He wasn't happy with the pressures of the Twin Peaks production.
I certainly wish that it's for another show (and he's been saying he prefers to do shows to movies nowadays), but TheFireman is definitely on to something. I'll just believe for now that this is for BoJack (which would hype me a lot).
I mean it's your generic diner. Coffee was bland but that's fine, cherry pie was decent. If you're a fan it's worth it.
It's a sad mess everywhere. Lost Highway somehow never came out on blu-ray in the US, The Straight Story only came out in Japan, Hotel Room and On The Air haven't seen a home release since VHS.
The Lost Highway UK Blu-Ray has fucking PAL speed-up, like HDMI never happened.
Seriously? This is such a sad state of affairs :(
I almost imported this a few weeks ago. And with that, thank you very much for this warning!
The Straight Story being stuck in the vault is a tragedy. Incredible movie that nobody ever talks about.
