It's a defensive act. If something is perceived as being "high art" and it doesn't connect with someone the tendency is suggest they're smarter for seeing it's true form (because most likely they're worried they're not getting it). You can see the converse sometimes, something that isn't as well liked really connects…
The script to episode 2 had "chance" but all accounts point to that being a misprint.. Lynch and others have said it's "chants"
Based on (info from the book, marking in spoiler tags just in case) him being abducted (probs to White Lodge) along with the Log Lady, along with the fact that for obvious reasons the actress playing Margaret wasn't very available I suspect he's in a similar role to her (you could kinda imagine that exact scene with…
Lynch seems to enjoy taking tragic moments and pushing the melodrama to the point it becomes comical, then waltzing back and forth over that line.
The juxtaposition of the mother's anguished screaming and people stiffly raising their hands to their face was quite something
That was such an exciting moment, I wonder if (as people have predicted) we'll start seeing more old school Twin Peaks stuff as the show continues / Cooper comes back (fingers crossed). And was it the same noise playing that the Giant played on the record player in episode 1?
Overplaying a ostensibly tragic scene with melodrama to the point it almost becomes comical, then toeing that line is a Lynch trademark.
There's no way moments in that scene weren't intended to be comical - there's some "The Room"-esque reactions in the crowd (three people doing very slow face in hands), which keeps…
Agreed on that explanation for who they were but thought it was more they represented her guilt, what her parents would think about what she'd become
I'm not saying people shouldn't join in, it's the forced "we have to do this thing right now" stuff that is just meh.. The Room screening I went to is run by a bad film night and I've been to plenty others, all of which are great fun - a few drinks and people loudly reacting, joking with each other - actually…
Would you mind editing this and spoiler tagging it please? Whilst Master of None isn't the most plot heavy show it's nice not to know exactly where things are going and I'm sure there are others like me who read episodic reviews whilst going through the show at a later date.. Cheers
I'm guessing the explanation is "these cars run on human blood due to special chemistry" - doesn't seem like the sort of show to attempt a plausible explanation for something, much easier to go with the usual "science = magic" thang
Well it does if you go and see it in a cinema, the 'look at me' try hard copying of the Rocky Horror stuff does rather get a bit much… I went to see a showing recently (along with Wiseau Q&A) and it was a lot of fun when people were relaxed and laughed along and joked around. Whenever there were deliberate 'bits' it…
I legit felt sorry for him, he just seemed so sad and pathetic in that moment. A terribly misguided human being seemingly trying to connect with other people and failing, you start to understand why they hide behind personas and such bluster..
The first is a choice between two potential deaths where one *has* to happen, the second is deliberately causing a death even if it prevents 5 other deaths.

"Nirvanna the band the show"
Which I'm amazed is getting almost no recognition here… is awesome
Yeah Krisha showed he has a great understanding of the techniques used within a horror/suspense film even if the film itself isn't straight up horror (well in the traditional sense). Fascinated to see him apply that to a more appropriate story (not to say it was inappropriate in Krisha, more that you can really only…
Surely the fact that the hitmen report back to the lady who phones the box in Buenos Aires - which BadCoop also phoned suggests pretty strongly a connection. Although it depends a little whether BadCoop is with or against Phillip Jeffries (first episodes seemed a bit ambiguous to that). I'm assuming he's connected…
As others have suggested I think Dougie was created as a Coop doppleganger was going to swap out with Coop after 25 years - Dougie meant that it wasn't EvilCoop.
Cooper knowing someone was lying (even if it was due to Lodge chicanery rather than Coop being Coop) was quite thrilling, mostly because it was the first glimmer of Coop (well outside the Red Room scenes)
