watching twin peaks fire walk with me

[IrishBloodEngHeart]

what an underrated movie! it is so great!

[darkstar]

1. Need to see that again soon...was waiting until season 2 dvds were out

An interesting critical history, iirc. Pretty widely panned upon release in early 90s, but then made lots of critics end-of-decade top 10 lists as well.

Enjoy your stay in Lynchville.

:hi:

2. i loved that show and the movie was excellent.

i'm going to go pour myself some damn fine coffee.

[InternalDialogue]

3. That coffee is naked without cherry pie.

The show gripped me from start to finish, even though I thought the season-two plot manipulation seemed obvious. Still, what a great example of creative storytelling and perfect use of the weekly serial format on network TV.

[AlCzervik]

4. every week my best friends Tilly and i made a night out of it, pizza or chinese

food and twin peaks. When the movie came out we were the first ones in line for tickets, same thing with the xfiles movie.

[InternalDialogue]

5. If I missed an episode, I was crushed.

Now, of course, with DVRs, we just looked silly in comparison.

Those stilted, backward early '90s. Catch a teevee program live, as it was being shown? Ha!

[AlCzervik]

7. i still don't have a dvr or tivo and i'm not getting one.

[InternalDialogue]

8. These days, I don't see hardly a thing when it airs.

The few shows I watch get stored up, and I get to watch them on the weekend.

It actually makes me think I should cancel my cable altogether and just rent my shows at the end of the season on DVD.

[AlCzervik]

9. i figure if i'm home i'll watch whatever it is and if i miss it there are always summer reruns

the only recent shows i ahven't missed is Heros, The office and 30 rock. I also started watching Andy Barker PI with Andy Richter, love that show.

[InternalDialogue]

10. Heroes is on my list too.

Their spring hiatus is killing me, I've discovered. Nothing like a long break to teach you what you really like to watch.

I missed the Andy Barker show. How does it compare to Andy Richter Controls the Universe? I enjoyed that short run quite a bit.

[AlCzervik]

11. Andy Barker is really different from Controls the universe but it still is Andy

it's very quick, lots of snappy lines and a good cast, all in all it's a really enjoyable show, he's a combo CPA and PI.

[InternalDialogue]

12. Cool.

It's on my list now, too. Have to check it out next week.

[AlCzervik]

13. good enjoy and let me know how you like it, also Raines is on tonight

with Jeff Goldblum, that one i also really like but i don't know if it will survive.

[ghostsofgiants]

16. You could always download episodes, as well.

[LibraLiz1973]

21. OMG Andy Barker is soooo funny

This week my favorite line was "Somewhere in hell someones getting to lay the wood to a quality broad"

I about peed my pants

[AlCzervik]

23. that was hilarious!! That is such a funny show, i hope it's getting good ratings.

i love the cast.

[LibraLiz1973]

24. I hope it is too!!

The chicken wasn't poisoned- but it could have been

6. Memorable lines

Cooper: Lately I've been filled with the knowledge that the killer will strike again.
Albert: All right, let's test it for the record. Will the next victim be a man or a woman?
Cooper: A woman.
Albert: What color hair will she have?
Cooper: Blonde.
Albert: Tell me some other things about her.
Cooper: She's young, she's in high school, she's sexually active, she's taking drugs, she's crying out for help.
Albert: Well damn Cooper, that really narrows it down, you're talking about half the high school girls in America!

[marzipanni]

19. That brought back a memory

Twin Peaks had an surreal dreamlike quality.

[ghostsofgiants]

27. Most of Lynch's work has that quality.

He's considered by many to be a surrealist filmmaker, in fact.

[Zookeeper]

14. I have the entire series stored in the basement....

on Beta tape... :blush:

[ghostsofgiants]

17. The second season is coming out on dvd soon.

Maybe you should upgrade the collection, haha.

[Zookeeper]

18. Honestly....

I'm old enough to have watched plenty of electronic formats become obsolete... :argh:

But, I'll probably buy the DVD set anyway. Thanks for the idea, my kids will love it!

:hi:

[ghostsofgiants]

15. Definitely Lynch's most underrated.

One of the creepiest movies I've ever seen. :thumbsup:

[BlueIris]

20. FWWM is one of the most underrated movies ever.

I love it.

[LibraLiz1973]

22. I love love love love Twin Peaks. And the movie was trashed

when it came out but I was there opening night and I lurved it.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooo interesting.
The only thing I didn't like about FWWM was the Audrey recast.
Goddamn Lara Flynn Boyle for being a bitch!!

[LostinVA]

28. Donna, not Audrey

Sorry for being annoying.

I LURVE Sherilyn Fenn. YUMMO.

[LibraLiz1973]

30. Funny thing is that even as I wrote it I knew I was wrong wrong wrong

I meant to change it but.. it was past the time

[LostinVA]

31. Sherilyn Fenn.... yummo

[Fuzz]

25. That was the first movie I took my now wife to and

she still married me, even though she thought I was extremely strange for wanting to see it. ;)

[ldf]

26. get the twin peaks soundtrack

it's GREAT!

:thumbsup:

[stuntcat]

29. any of y'all get the new Chiller Channel?

(was this mentioned here already?)
They're playing the Twin Peaks tv show so I'm just starting to watch it. I missed it the first time, it was when I was moving to college I think, but some of my friends loved it.

So I'm only two episodes in now!
