I tried looking for this interview - could you point me in the right direction? I'm interested in Lynch's view of the non-show/movie ideas about Twin Peaks; at the same time, he really doesn't strike me as the kind of guy to just say his show's co-creator's novel doesn't count.

The book is phenomenal. I watched the 1963 film last weekend - which is a very solid adaptation - and it reminded me of some of the amazingly creepy scenes from the book. The pounding up and down the stairs is even worse in the novel, and the film leaves out perhaps the book's most frightening scene - Eleanor and Theo

I love 'Twin Peaks', love Lynch, have loved what the show's been so far, and would much, much rather have Twin Peaks in this form - where Lynch and Frost have been given free reign - than in any other way.

Remember, Dougie's dead/turned into a gold pebble. Everyone just thinks Cooper is Dougie, and Cooper's too addled to know the difference. When Cooper cries, it's 100% Cooper.

First: I love 'Twin Peaks', love Lynch, have loved what the show's been so far, and would much, much rather have Twin Peaks in this form - where Lynch and Frost have been given free reign - than in any other way.

The book is canon: I know that Lynch hasn't read it, but they developed the ideas together, and Twin Peaks is as much Frost's baby as it is Lynch's.

That'll be the cliffhanger for the penultimate episode.

You can't decide a bubble's bursting because of internet comments. Everyone -
every man,woman, and child in the world - loves Game of Thrones.

ANUKSUNAMUN: Imhotep?

I don't agree, but I did laugh out loud at this.

Even when I was 12 I didn't like that change: I much, much prefer 'ditzy fish out of water but hyper intelligent' librarian Evelyn to 'steely and sexy' Evelyn.

The bit where Mr Burns (I remember his name because the scene made such a ghastly imprint on my memory) turns round groaning and moaning about 'My eyes he… took… my EYES!' really fucking got to me as a kid. It's a very, very kiddie horror moment - not because it's tame or anything, but because it's a kind of ghastly

Newt a billion times more likeable than any kid character I can think of because James Cameron's too smart to have made the cardinal sin of trying to make her precocious (he sort of did it with John Connor, but it works with him because he's meant to be screwed up).

Two points:

This is a terrific point, and it's politeness is wasted on the people desperate to find something to moan about.

"I just think they're sometimes people who get off on telling other people what to do while pretending it's about social justice."

Someone is articulate if they can express complex ideas clearly and eloquently; it doesn't mean that they're incapable of putting their foot in their mouth.

Don't leave us in suspense - which foreign film?

Trump's way beyond logic now: where before he could marry being pragmatic in a self-serving, totally cynical way to spite, now that he's old, President, and realises that the rest of his life is going to be miserable, spite is all he is.

The first of the Star Wars films I saw was The Empire Strikes Back; it would have been 1994 or 1995, when I was 5 or 6 years old. ESB pretty much became the standard against which I measured all narrative art - movies, novels, videogames, comics, television shows, etc. Obviously the original Star Wars is supposed to
