Do I need to watch the original before I watch the new series?

You don't need to, but it would be even more incomprehensible to you if you didn't watch the original series and the movie Fire Walk With Me, because you'd have zero frame of reference and a lot of the characters that return from the original series have little to do with the overall plot in the 3rd season and you'd have no idea who these random people are

yes, and you have to watch fire walk with me as well. season 3 builds heavily on it

enjoy. i’m always jealous of people diving into twin peaks for the first time

And Lost Highway to understand the final episode.

I disagree. I believe if anyone watched the Return without watching anything else they would automatically dislike it, because they wouldn't understand anything. Also, they'd be thrown in the deep end to say the least.

What's it have to do with Lost Highway, the sex scene?

Lost Highway and one or two other Lynch films share themes with the the Return. I think he was referring to the time loop aspect of Part 18

I watched the return first, loved dougie/cooper, the vegas storyline, evil coop and the one punch man scenes, everything else felt tiring, especially the milf arguing with the small guy with glasses

Laura Palmer is the best character ever, shame she got killed by her own father in one of the best television plot twists ever :)

David talking really loud was funny too

Did you at least go back and watch the original run and FWWM?

And Inland Empire to be able to comprehend any of it

Just some youtube scenes, mostly the spooky parts and the scene where david kisses shelly

>And Inland Empire to be able to comprehend
U wot m8

The absolute state of Yea Forums

After your third or fourth viewing of Inland Empire you'll start to be able to comprehend Twin Peaks and the rest of Lynch's work. If you haven't seen that masterpiece several times, you're likely a brainlet poser who only claims to love lynch.

also Eraserhead and The Elephant Man because there are scenes shot in black and white

And The Straight Story because you see a lawn mower in one scene.

Season 1,2, FWWM plus Missing Pieces, Eraserhead, Kubrick’s entire filmography, every Mark Romanek commercial, Brass Eye and the first Toy Story’s

And don't forget lynch's Dune, because the characters Jack Nance plays in both that and Twin Peaks are actually the same person.

Ya gotta watch Blue Velvet after Dune, then you can watch Twin Peaks FWWM, the series, the missing piece, then you're going to watch Eraserhead.

Twin Peaks season 3 is a culmination of everything Lynch has done so far, every film in his filmography 8s necessary viewing before season 3.

Don't forget to watch Vertigo and 2001: A Space Odyssey first.

Also Sunset Boulevard.

I can't tell if this interwoven Lynchian cinematic universe are actual suggestions or just a meme

Ok, let me rephrase

>Inland Empire
>comprehend

No, like any other TV show you begin with season 3

DUDE, superimposed faces on top of other people's faces

All I want is for one of you TP zealots to explain the roasty with super strength and amnesia arc and tell me why it wasn't absolutely retarded.

You should watch the first two seasons and the movies.

I re watched everything before watching the third season and it was a fucking trip to see people age 25 years in two weeks.

and The Alphabet, because only then will you be able to comprehend the lynchian linguistics of Twin Peaks

And spent a few years practicing transcendental meditation, because only then will you be able to catch Lynch's big fish

100% not a meme.
They might not take place in the same "universe", but there are certain stylistic and thematic elements that pervade Lynch's entire ouvre, so they really complement each other.

Also, an aside note to everyone ITT: if you haven't seen The Grandmother chances are you don't actually understand Twin Peaks.

Do you have a link for Inland Empire? I've been wanting to see it for a while

Just torrent it, dummy.

That whole season is filled with awful shit like that. James' story arc is particularly bad

Grandmother was great. Always saw it as a companion piece to Eraserhead. Being about childhoof fear where Eraserhead was about adult fears.

ever heard of yts?

Inland Empire
This video: youtu.be/uSP-ewdJYJc
Twin Peaks S3

thanks for the quinoa video

Reminder that the missing pieces is essential viewing for season 3 to make sense.

Essential:
Blue Velvet
Eraserhead
Mulholland Drive
Twin Peaks, S1 and S2
Fire Walk With Me & Missing Pieces
Twin Peaks The Return
Lost Highway
Inland Empire

The Elephant Man, Dune, and The Straight Story are nonessential but worth watching if you’re a Lynch fan.

The Elephant Man is one of his best films though

Oops, forgot Wild at Heart. Do that after Lost Highway.

Yes. You also have to be a gay redditor pseud to enjoy Dabid Lunch. Are you prepared for that? Are you prepared to not belong here?

>Dune
>not a must watch before Twin Peaks S3

Prove me wrong.

It’s nowhere near as good as FWWM, Inland Empire, Blue Velvet, or Eraserhead imo and is much more restrained and conventional.

Literally the same scene with car/electricity dimensional travel

what did you not like about it?

the window washer moment was excellent

blue velvet should be your first no matter what

It’s not that I disliked it really, I just like literally every Lynch film & FWWM is probably my favorite movie of all time. I prefer more surreal, unrestrained Lynch. He’s one of the few directors I’d say doesn’t benefit from having dramatic fetters placed on his work.

I haven’t watched it in a long time though, should probably rewatch

fair enough, I actually disliked FWWM as I found it too pretentious (especially the dancing girl scene), though I admit it had a good soundtrack

It's Mark Frost's fault, I don't have to defend shit.

They were actually both at fault for letting unexperienced people write and direct their show.

It would probably help but it's still not going to make perfect sense.

Half the people in this season were random.

>milf arguing with the small guy with glasses
Watch the first season if only to get more of her in her prime. I wish I could go back in time to an alternate dimension and fuck her in an everlasting time loop.

And a whole lot more that were returning from the old seasons would appear to be random as well. I'm not saying watch the old seasons and everything will make perfect sense. I'm saying without the old seasons it will make even less sense than it already would have otherwise

Oh yeah I totally agree.

>This video: youtu.be/uSP-ewdJYJc
Fuck I'm starving now. I don't have any quinoa though. I'll have to remember this next time I'm at the store.

Fucking google. I'm asking for a substitute for bouillon cubes and they recommend using broth. I don't have fucking bouillon cubes what makes you think I have broth?

Do you not have vegetables? Spices? Salt?
Then it's time to go shopping.

I put some oregano, parsley, garlic, onion, thyme, salt, black pepper, and questionably old celery flakes. I have vegetables but the point is I don't want to do all that. I'm already putting broccoli in it.

>I put some oregano, parsley, garlic, onion, thyme, salt, black pepper, and questionably old celery flakes
That's more than enough, desu. Add some shrooms if you got them.

Yeah it smells kind of strong I think I fucked up but it's too late now. Mushrooms sound good I'll add that to the list.

Broth>>>>Cubes

for future reference making it with vegetable broth is the best way desu. also add diced onions, garlic, scallions, salt, & black pepper. yum

You don't. However, it will make less "sense" and you will have little to no context of the events beforehand. So, take that for what you will.

this is correct

Just look up MK Ultra and you'll understand it well enough.

My half assed version is pretty good so I'm going to have to experiment with this.
