Now that the dust has settled, can we agree that The Leftovers is an objectively superior television show to Twin Peaks?
>>83741659
Lynchfags BTFO
Who /lof/ head here?
if leftovers was so good, why is lindelof's career over?
>>83741946
It isn't in the slightest, he is one of the most in-demand screenwriters in Hollywood.
>>83741659
critics are fucking plebs
LINDELOFED
>>83742180
Lynchfags are literally DCucks
>>83742049
but hollywood soon be gone, what are you talking about?
>>83741659
Wait do people on tv actually defend lindelof? lol what the fuck
I'm offended by you replacing Lynch's glorious hair with that.
>>83742655
>insulting based Lindelgod
The best part is that hack praised that hack and cited this pleb trash as an influence on the leftovers s3
The Leftovers is a much better show than Twin Peaks. I don't know how that can even be a discuss.
>>83742655
I loved lost and loved leftovers
both of them are at least in my top 5 shows ive ever watched
going to watch prometheus soon
what am i in for
Based Mysteryman
>>83745022
Nonsense.
>>83745022
Its the best alien movie by far. Has the more lore and intrigue. The characters are all retarded but it doesn't take away from the entertainment.
>>83742655
People actually defend Post-9/11 David Lynch?
>Leftover, Saul and Fargo fans all saying they're better than Twin Peaks but not those other shows
Huh interesting
>>83745147
Mulholland Drive and Inland Empire are his best movies.
>>83745226
Ummm, he shot and directed Mulholland Drive before the US Government blew up the WTC. Try again sweetie.
>>83745249
Well Inland Empire then, which is his best movie imo.
>>83745261
Nope, thats Blue Velvet.
>>83745180
Leftovers is modern masterpiece pham, it ranks along the likes of Deadwood and Sopranos
>all these butthurt millenials upset that it's 5 eps in and still hasnt had anything to do with TP scoring it
I'm not 100 percent positive, im not 1000 percent positive, im 5000 percent positive this is what's happening here.
>>83745180
I'll attack Fargo. Anything Noah Hawley is involved in is so transparent in its laborious attempts at being stylish and cool that it creates a singularity when it crawls up its own asshole so densely.
>>83745378
A genius singularity. The overstylization is purposeful and potent.
>>83745316
LindeGOD is just a better showrunner. Eat shit Lynchfag.
Oh Mr. Lindelof!
Oh, the shit, it come out of my ass
>>83741659
Im no Lynch apologist (although new TP is good)
However, theres no way to defend lindenlofs body of work. Hes a hack writer who creates plot holes like goddamn swiss cheese and never follows them up with anything substantial.
>>83742655
The Leftovers is legitimately a great show. Won't defend anything else he has done though.
>>83746866
>He's a plotfag
>>83746866
This, and he also can't write characters unless they're confined to a series where he has time and other writers to unfuck his habitual out of character moments and general retardation.
>>83741659
Is The Leftovers actually any good?
I have been burned by TV before and I am running out things to watch.
>>83747110
If you're looking for BrBa-type cuhrazy shit, move along. Leftovers is very slow and moody, it's basically Existential Crisis: The Show. Although somehow every season managed to end on with a sort of happy ending
>>83745303
ok I'll give it a shot. I liked LOST and Prometheus but idk seems kind of boring
>>83745429
And the style is lifted directly from other work rendering the show a completely hollow mess.
>>83747390
Sounds like it is worth a watch, thanks.
Shall try an episode.
>>83745180
It's the holy trinity of vacuous bullshit designed for the blogosphere for a reason.
>>83741659
Leftovers is an anagram of Lost Fever.
You got Lindelofed.
>>83747475
Just find a video of Lindelof masturbating into a cup and put an orchestral soundtrack over it it'll save you some time.
>>83747523
This but replace Leftovers with Twin Peaks
>>83747475
The beginning of season 1 is really different than the rest of the show desu. Just a heads up.
>>83747633
Lynch hates the internet while Lindelof fellates it any chance he can get.
>>83747649
Ahhhh, I just put it on and the opening scene was pretty good. Might just turn it off now.
>>83745316
Don't bet on those odds anon
>>83747110
the first season is alright then lindelof goes full lindelof and it turns into lost with a bunch of random mysterious nonsense that add up to nothing
and the idiots on here praise it because dude it was all about the characters and nothing else matters lmao
>>83747679
So what you're telling me is Lynch has contempt for his audience? It certainly explains why the new season of Twin Peaks is the way it is.
>>83747729
>Theme song is literally 'let the mystery be'
>HURR WHY DID THAT FUCKING HACK NOT EXPLAIN EVERY SINGLE PLOT DETAIL?
People with autism such as yourself should not be allowed to watch quality television
>>83747798
His audience isn't the people who watch television so they can go online and get praised for their emotional reactions and insight, a rightfully derided demographic that most of today's "prestige television" directly caters to instead of bothering telling a story or saying something with a genuinely creative flair.
>>83747905
I sincerely hope you realize the irony in this post
L Y N C H E D
>>83747867
i never said i was expecting anything to get resolved or explained, because it's fucking lindelof and i know exactly what to expect from him. using mysterious happenings just to get characters to react to them over and over again is walking dead tier writing
>>83748100
It's a well documented fact. The dude had stopped making movies and was gonna leave the new Twin Peaks over Showtime telling him what to do.
I want to cuddle with jill garvey
>>83748332
I don't think you realize what I mean anon
>>83745180
dont put better call saul in the same tier as leftovers and fargo
>>83741659
No. I really like both shows, but I have to say as some time has passed now, the ending of Leftovers left over a sour taste in my mouth.
>>83749000
bcs is even worse than leftovers
>>83749058
that's what i meant, it's not as good as fargo or the leftovers
>>83748926
I tried to upvote you but couldn't.
>>83749163
They're all varying concentrations of the same taste of shit.
So why did Kevin often sleepwalk and shoot dogs and then adopt them and then kidnap a fat lady?
I thought we'd get more from this by the finale but it looks like NOPE
People rave about The Leftovers but nobody explains why it's good. I heard you have to sit through 12 episodes of meandering before the plot gets going. I just don't have the patience. And judging from the ratings, neither does anyone else.
>>83749174
>upvote
Spotted the Redditor trying to fit in
>>83749206
nah :^)
>>83749331
there he is
>>83749292
It explores themes and ideas that no other show touches. It's spiritual and yet agnostic, it's a show about the human experience and the emotional state that one enters when they feel loss or as they contemplate the greater mysteries in life.
>>83749427
The Young Pope said more in any given scene about spirituality than The Leftovers did in three seasons of "insight" which mostly consisted of characters crying a lot.
>>83749427
Already saw that show. It was called Rectify.
>>83745279
>>Nope, thats Blue Velvet.
You fucking pleb.
