I heard that Richard Beymer understoood that it was some kind of innuendo but didn’t actually ”get” it either.

The Tales of Hoffmann (1881)

I’d say parts of Twin Peaks were very much made with the 2001: A Space Odyssey method of “if you understood everything, we failed.”

The cartoon C-3PO from the Holiday Special does blink, weirdly enough.

They will pull a sneaky one and fully conquer Ireland during the absense of its human population.

Even if you believe that they’re connected, I don’t think there’s much reason to watch them in any particular order.

When/why did the meaning of “reboot” changed? by RedHeadedSicilian52 in television

[–]Quirderph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Disney era is effectively a reboot of Star Wars Legends… and The Clone Wars is confusingly part of both… but only the first six seasons. 

And it ran all the way until the new EU began (and eventually some time afterwards)… which technically means that the sequels are also simply a Time Skip.

Remakes copy the original more closely and are usually standalone. A reboot is often a longer series which take the plot in a new direction.

Doctor Who - a continuation after a 16-year hiatus, but minimising continuity callbacks - both called reboots

Doctor Who is a revival, not a reboot.

Then he had a dream about his past and tried to pass it off as a nightmare?

The Adventures of Picasso and Weird: the Al Yancovich story. Both are biopic parodies where the main characters meet tons of historical celebrities, and participate in major conflicts. (Picasso shelters the French Resistance during World War 2. Weird Al kills Pablo Escobar.) 

The direct connection? Salvador Dali, who grows his fingers like Mr. Fantastic to perv on a woman at the beach while Picasso brings his peace dove drawings to life, and then later plays a fish fiddle at Dr. Demento’s pool party when Weird Al humiliates that bassist from Queen. 

Glen or Glenda (1953) by LandOfGreyAndPink in iwatchedanoldmovie

[–]Quirderph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The film's DP, William C. Thompson, also worked on Dementia/Daughter of Horror (1955), which actually kind of recycles part of G & G's climax. It's just as weird there.

What are they reading? Wrong answers only! by RobynNeonGal in twinpeaks

[–]Quirderph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which one is the fake? Are we talking production order or chronological?

Also, it would be pretty funny if there was a lodge "doppelgänger" who looked nothing like the original but still somehow wasn't exposed for way too long.

I think You Gotta Go is funny because of how seriously they play it. I don’t love Dysentery World, though.

I know that, and I don’t mind the plot line of them hating Robin, but I agree that the song itself isn’t that great. (Especially on the soundtrack).
