Reply to comment by tetoffens in I watched Twin Peaks for the first time, feel like a fool by neuroflix

I enjoyed the show but FWWM was too much for me.

Did you watch The Return?

I did not. I was 14 when it aired on TV, 16 when movie came out, haven’t been interested since. I did rewatch a few episodes and remember why I enjoyed it but wasn’t enough to get me back into it.

Gotcha. If you didn’t enjoy FWWM, then I don’t think you’ll dig it.

Really? The Return is very different than FWWM. The latter is basically a horror movie while the former has some horror elements but does a much better job at moving between genres.

I was bummed for real. I know not having broadcast constraints allowed Lynch to fully give us his vision but it was too much for me.

I agree. FWWM and the Return may be "good," but they just don't have that Twin Peaks vibe that I love about season 1 and 2. They feel like Lynch's more abstract movies rather his more mainstream stuff.
