A new startup wants to upload your brain to a server, but with one very small catch: They don’t know how.

The way I always think about these things is, in 2000, would i have considered 1983 “vintage”? Probably.

This guy is one of the weirdest dudes I’ve ever watched, and I love it - especially his fearless Daily Double wagering, which will almost certainly end him at some point but also has won him a good chunk of his money.

I don’t get it.

The devil’s curse is that it’s copious amounts of Danny Trejo nudity.

There’s a sweet spot that most bad movies miss. It has to be unintentional, so intentionally campy movies don’t make the cut (No Robo Geisha, thanks), and there has to be a baseline amount of competence (That removes Birdemic from the discussion). The Room is a movie where one man made a God honest attempt at art.

Support your right to arm bears.

What was Laura Palmer in the end? Was she just a machination to ensnare Bob in some divine being’s good/ evil balancing act?

I can relate to your last sentence, though in my case what I felt as I watched 18 was anxiety that it looked like it was going to be disappointing, followed by the dawning realization that it was indeed disappointing. Then, once it was over, some anger and feelings of alienation. I felt that way after the first time I

I think Laura’s death and the Black Lodge represent all the evil mankind does. That’s why the nuclear-explosion-as-entryway-for-evil worked so well in episode 8.

I remember thinking it felt like a dream sequence. This doesn’t come across in the episode but on location, Coop and Carrie/Laura walked up the steps with completely synchronized movements. There was one take where after talking to the new owner, Coop and Carrie/Laura did some strange body language, like they felt

One theory with Sarah Palmer is that “Judy” is inhabiting her body, hence the weirdness and the biting of the throats and such. When Phillip Jefferies meets Evil Coop and EC keeps asking him “Who’s Judy?” Jefferies replies “You’ve already met her”, which Cooper would have back when he was originally in Twin Peaks

  • Naido being reduced to a placeholder for Diane is another example of Lynch’s clumsy sidelining of non-white characters. In this case, she’s not even a character, but a symbol of a character.

Maybe it’s Baby’s First Critical Analysis to suggest that Twin Peaks: The Return is an extended meditation on both itself and the original run of episodes, but that’s the most coherent interpretation I have so far. I guess the only insight less piercing than that would be “Dale Cooper symbolically represents the

It’s only a video?? Damn.

“That’s the world we live in now; it’s more violent, more chaotic, and less innocent than the world of 25 years ago.”

Yeah, I don't agree with that. The first Weezer album is near perfect because it fucking ROCKS, hard and without any pretension. I suppose some of the songs have meaningful lyrics, but I never noticed cause I was too busy air-guitaring my ass off and chanting along to what I thought he was saying. (Your heart is a
