Tonight's episode ... Holy shit
Does anybody know what to make of it? It's blowing my mind
shareyea that was quite intense. I knew something was off when those "things" saved? bob
shareI think it was a complete waste of time. I was doing a lot of fast-forwarding on the DVR, and I have never before done that on a series for which I've created a series subscription--not even on American Gods, a series that often irks the toadstools out of me. This one-hour TP episode had as much self-indulgent bullshit in it as all eight hours of American Gods, a feat I never imagined! It was something about Bob/Cooper had ethereal forces preventing his murder, and extraterrestrials becoming aware that Earth had split the atom and responding not by sending Klatuu but instead by sending an insect that will somehow create Laura Palmer. An hour for that!
I thought it was more, the bomb somehow brought the plane of the lodge to our world, and when the giant saw what happened, he did something with laura palmer? no idea but I think its like the season 1 finale, its an episode with lots of set up for later on in the season.
shareThe explosive power of that bomb was 20 kilotons. If THAT was enough to create a rift between dimensions, given the magatonage of modern weapons, we'd be having interdimensional tourists up to our earlobes here today. The hypothesis doesn't pass the smell test. Then again, because I don't think that Lynch cares about reason or facts or logic, or really much of anything else but himself, maybe it does.
shareNot necessarily, if it depended on where or when the bomb was located. If it was a mile down the road or one hour later, it may not have had any effect on the dimension it tapped into.

Im with you. "Self-indulgent bullshit" sums it up nicely. I didn't wait 27 yrs for this crap. Im not sure why david lynch wanted to bring back twin peaks, so far he has failed in my eyes. Some of us that are twin peaks fans aren't necessarily lynch fans. This episode was more boring than eraserhead. And seriously wtf with nin playing at the roadhouse? Lame.
