They just created this sprawling world full of characters they haven’t managed properly and it’s abundantly clear that they didn’t have a long-term plan (or whichever one they did have was scrapped). I was really into the world-building of S1, the idea of what it might have been like to live under Japanese or German occupation. Most of the day-to-day of that has since been abandoned, and S3 pivoted into outright science fiction and had a fair bit in common with Stranger Things. it’s not that it’s bad, just confusing.

also, casting Stephen Root and then giving him fuck-all to do is criminal

no that is SILLY. It is a great film but not greatist of all time.

The greatest film is the original terminator film.

Dunno why I was still bothering with Twin Peaks after the first couple of episodes of S2 (haven’t watched the new series)

Wrong and I’ll tell you for why, the Terminator was groundbreaking as far as atmospheric dystopian thrillers went and had a breakneck speed and gravity seldom seen before or since.

HOWEVER Termy 2 had far deeper underlying plot themes of humanity’s interaction with machines, parenting, distrust of authority. It’s about a woman escaping a mental hospital to fight a (robot) cop ffs! It’s the best.

I watched it first round a friends house. He didn’t have sky but his uncle did, so he would record episodes of the simpsons etc for us to watch.

Gosh DAMN watching Terminator 2 was an emotional rollorcoaster to go at at my friends house. I cried at the end, I remember him turning to me and saying ‘simon, are you crying’ lol no i just had some dust in my eye or something lol.

'I know now why you cry, but it is something I can never do. lol :frowning:
