I forgot all about Karla Ha Ha.

Anytime I see an article on Lynch, I wait for your comment.

Lost Highway is underrated as fuck.

I wish I could have been watching TV live to see this scene: https://www.youtube.com/wat… because even when I was just watching for the first time on the DVDs, my mouth was goddamn agape.

Yeah, I still don't think the final few episodes really make it more literal. I see it as Coop and the gang dealing with BOB, Mike etc as dealing with their own internal struggles and the darkness of humanity but in this particular instance Bob, etc represent the personas of those pains. Yeah, the finale/films make…

@wolfmansRazor:disqus Oh for sure. That's what my terrible statement was sort of getting at. I don't think calling it a romance or a western is really fair. In some ways, it's his most ambitious film because he attempts to touch on everything American. I don't know that it works, but it's quite something to watch. And…

I went on a camping trip once, and the only music I brought along where the two Twin Peaks soundtrack cds I had.

Walking home at night, listening to "The Pink Room" (not really Badalamenti but still) makes it feel like some nefarious shit could happen at any moment.

Take that away and you have

I believe that's explicitly what Major Briggs says at one point.

He does. If we're holding with the original intention being that BOB is Leland's construction of his evil side, I think it makes that pretty plausible. Leland has his own traumatic experience in the past, and when he commits "evil actions," it's the man who originally hurt him, not himself, doing them. It would also…

It's all worth it for that finale. What a way to burn the whole thing down.

Oh I'm going to. I was going to get the DVD, but then couldn't find it for awhile. Now my GF and I are working are way back through the series (she's never seen it, though we're only a couple episodes away and she just read the SPOILERSPOILERSPOILER Coop/BOB spoiler from the final episode so grrrr). When we finish it,…

This is pretty spot on.

IT'S A REFERENCE.

@avclub-884c4beddd8c98bb3b016bdfcc1bcdf8:disqus Yeah, I guess it could be seen that way. I just mean that it doesn't strike me as any kind of commentary on a "romance film" or "romantic storytelling." Though, it is a particularly Lynchian view on love. I don't know. I should rewatch it.

Yeah if it was constructed intentionally so that certain episodes reveal various elements based off of how you watched it. It sounded like it was going to give AD a chance to build it's layered jokes/world in a Rashamon esque way that would have never flown on network television. Airing stuff out of order isn't…

I'm getting Repo Man on Blu Ray this week and am so pumped to get my Stanton on. Never seen it, but like you said, I'll watch just about anything with him in it. Would've watched it tonight if Amazon hadn't bungled my order.

Wild at Heart isn't really a romance or a western (but I think part of its issue is it doesn't know what it wants to be so it just sort of needlessly sprawls), and I wouldn't call Mullholland Dr a dark and twisted studio film. It's not really a version of anything. It does comment on Hollywood, fame, ambition, etc but…

Despite loving the show more than anything in the world (and being a huge fan of Lynch), this remains a film I haven't seen somehow.
