>built up as a major bad guy>does nothing>unceremoniously killed by Bob in 3 secondsWhat a fucking waste of time this was. What was Lynch thinking with this character? What was the point?
>lynch >thinking
>What was Lynch thinking with this character? What was the point?He thought "I don't like this character, I didn't create him, now he dies."
>>220373930>What was Lynch thinking with this character?Probably not much, considering Frost was at the helm for the majority of season 2.
>>220373956who created him then?
>>220373971me
>>220373977No, you didnt. Fuck you. Legitimately. Fuck you.
>>220373982are you mad at me
>>220373986I'm just shy. This is my first thread on /tv/ in like 3 years.... and I recently finished Twin Peaks....
>>220373971I don't know, whoever was in charge of the show during the giant middle chunk when Lynch disappeared in a puff of smoke
>>220374008Was mark frost or w.e really that involved?
>>220374180yes, niggathat's why twin peaks is so different from everything else lynch didI remember watching RLM talk about twin peaks as "superfans" and then they mentioned they never read any of the novels because they were just written by Frost, but Frost came up with most of the fucking characters in the first place and likely ALL the actual lore
His character is pure stupid 90s cheesiness, but it's all worth it for the part where he abducts Major Briggs.>"What in this world do you fear most?">"The possibility that love is not enough."
>>220374008Lynch never fully left the show; he may have been more focused on Wild at Heart but he still "OK'd" the dumbshit that Frost and the other writers came up with in Season Two. He was there on set filming as Gordon Cole for most of the fucking episodes during the low points of the season that people claim that he magically wasn't there for and people who worked on the show have said this.
>>220374237you know most actors just leave set when they're done shooting shit, right?
>>220374237>>220374208I liked season 2 better than season 1.(I didnt read any internet sentiment telling me it sucked, I guess.)
>>220374265you liked james' soap opera arc?
>>220374279That part i did not. But overall I enjoyed it and had a lot of fun watching it. I was surprised to go on the internet and read so much hate for season 2.
>>220374298that part.
>>220374258You know that Lynch didn't just magically disappear from the show that he created and had (shared) creative control over despite how poor the writing became, right?
>>220374369Of course not. I think he went back to a hotel room or maybe flew back to his actual home.
>>220374237>He was there on set filming as Gordon Cole for most of the fucking episodes>mostGordon Cole physically appears in only four of the second season's 22 episodes.
>>220374237>>220374008>>220374180>>220374208There was an A.M.A. on Reddit a few years back with a bunch of actors/people working on the series, and they outright said the "Lynch wasn't involved in S2" was complete bullshit, and he was just as involved as in S1.For fuck's sake, he DIRECTED MORE EPISODES in S2 than in S1.
>>220374390nigga there's over than twice as many episodes in season 2 as season 1 and he only directed fucking FOUR of them, two in the beginning, one in the middle, and then the finale
>>220374381you omitted the latter half of that sentence you quoted my friend
My favourite part of Twin Peaks was James singing "Just You". Shit makes me tear up
>>220374438It's entirely false. Only two of Cole's appearances are during the low points of the season (post killer reveal).
>>220374567>only half
>>220374674Two episodes does not constitute "most episodes during the low points of the season".
Windom Earle is extremely dangerous.>*stalks a teenage girls dressed as Hercule Poirot*The brilliance of his intellect is unmatched.>*hides a corpse inside a giant chess piece*He's a sick and twisted individual that won't stop at anything to achieve his goals.>*disguises himself as a horse*We must proceed with extreme caution when dealing with him.>*gets buckbroken by Bob*
>>220374692yes but you were presenting an obviously disingenuous point as if Cole was a constant recurring side character, when he was only in 4 episodes of a 22 episode seasonmuch like that "other" guy who presented an argument that lynch was definitely around because he directed "more" episodes in season 2 than season 1 (4 in total, 3 of which were during the periods when Lynch was in direct creative involvement)I really don't ever care what people say about something 30 years later, the initial point was >What was Lynch thinking with this dumb character? (Windom Earle) and Lynch did not create that character, gave him a crazy, brutal death that make him look like a little bitch compared to all his grandiose posturing, and also didn't even bother to even simply reference him by name in The Return, even though there were plenty of points when it would've been germane to do so, like the 300 scenes concerning the inner workings of the FBI in relation to weird cases and how Cooper might've gone Rogue like Earle or something along those lines
>>220374759Then why didn't Frost write him into season 3?
I would rather a cartoon villain like Earle than a dry husk of unfiltered hatebait like Evil Coop in The Return.
>>220374807Because Lynch had full control of the Return and included Frost, it was not a full collaboration the way season 1 had been
>>220374834Ahh, so that's why it sucked so hard
>>220373993That is no excuse for lashing out and you know better. You owe that anon an apology and you better abide by it or so help me...!
