There are some fun and interesting things in the last 8 episodes of season 2 as the Windom Earle back story gets revealed, but the last two episodes are fantastic. I envy you getting to see them immediately followed by FWWM for the first time. Make sure you then also watch the "Missing Pieces" of FWWM, which will

Yes, strike that, reverse it.

Inversion was written by Harness and Moffat, and I'm thinking it was the former who wrote the great speech as it ties directly to his The Day of the Doctor.

Lord Sutcliffe needed a long thin mustache to twirl.

The Paternoster Gang would be a better spin-off.

My fan cut would be about 80% 2 and 20% 3.

I watched all three the other weekend, and I think you could cut together a pretty great 2+-hour sequel from all the good parts of Reloaded and Revolutions. I would have only shown glimpses of Zion and kept the story focused on the action in The Matrix. Sorry, Monica Bellucci, as great as you looked, this does not

Saving the Missing Pieces for the very end of a full re-watch is a good idea- the last two scenes are from the TV finale and will bring you full circle to where we left off.

You've probably seen Lindsay Duncan in a bunch of stuff. She never disappoints, IMO.

Have you caught the "Missing Pieces" of FWWM, yet? So many great moments. Makes me want to see a 3.5-hour version with all the scenes intact. Twin Peaks absolutely works better with a rich vein of humor underpinning the metaphysical horrors. I fully expect the new show will have both- and seeing Gordon Cole

A wise strategy to always set expectations on "low." Unfortunately, I'm too hyped. I am hopeful because he and Frost have been kicking this return around in their minds for a long time now. Also, in a way, everything Lynch does is something "new," and it's been a very long time now since he's done anything at all.

But Lynch co-wrote and directed every episode of the upcoming Twin Peaks revival, and he shot it like one giant movie. This is a very different MO from the show that was on ABC 25 years ago, whose incoherence in the second season came from having too many cooks with Lynchitis in the creepy kitchen. Every episode he

Or Jason Alexander in Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Same with Legion, where tasty layers of esoteric metaphysics hide beneath the surface of your basic comic book story.

Did anyone else think we were inside the flying saucer in the opening shot, with the camera crawling inside that microphone?

Fascinating.

From what I saw, that works, too.

Yeah, I was confused by that, too. Millerites were disciples of William Miller, a farmer from New York, who predicted that Christ's second coming would occur in April 1843, and that all worthy people would ascend to heaven on October 23, 1844- which, as was pointed out below, became known as "The Great

It is fantastic.

Coon is one of those actresses that you just can't take your eyes off of. She's so restrained as Nora with so much going on inside.
