RE: Immerse yourself in a Twin Peaks Atmosphere : Hike to the Amazing Ray Pic Waterfalls

in Worldmappin2 years ago

Loved this walk!!! Makes me want to go waterfall searching myself. There's tons near me.

Volcanos in France! Cool. There's a whole ring near us too but you'd never know. When I told someone last week they were gobsmacked.

They are only 10,000 years young too

I watched the entire series of Twin Peaks on VHS in early 2001 before I left for a years travel in Europe backpacking with my 4 yo. I had just come out of a long term relationship. I recall it well. But I can't watch Lynch anymore.

Sort:  

Oh yeah ! A waterfalls quest !

They are only 10,000 years young too

God, that's super young "geologycaly" speaking ! They must be pretty active, don't they ?

Aaah, you were among the first :) I can imagine how full and eventful such a travel in Europe must have been..! Can I ask you why you can't still watch Lynch movies ?

They aren't active now, and just look like hills!

Hmmm, I think it was Mulholland Drive and another one that I just went, hmmm, wtf is he on about, I'm done! Twin Peaks was perfect. The rest just got wierd and I felt I was watching it because it was Lynch, not because I enjoyed them, so I took a stand. I did the same with Tarantino and just downright refuse to watch him at all.

I hope these won't wake up too quickly for you ^^

I totally know what you're talking about, I kinda like this weird and hermetic side... even if it can be boring or just for show in some cases ! I have more of that with Tarantino, even if he is, let's say, more readable...

I LIKED it, I just was fed up with it. Like he needed to do something different or something. Same with Tarantino - I was like, enough with the gratuitious violence already...

I know exactly what you mean. There are many artists who find a formula and repeat it endlessly... Afterwards, it's also complicated I guess to find yourself a bit stuck between the expectations of the public (and producers...) and your personal and artistic aspirations. But it doesn't change anything to the fact ^^

Yes, absolutely - it is better to stay true to your vision than please everyone. You know I miss the days of art house films. It was easier to find them as there would be a whole section in the DVD/video shop! Now you have to hunt harder for them unless they have bigger marketing budgets to sell to mainstream. Gah, I hate this attention culture and how the internet has been utterly taken over by consumerism and capitalism!!!

Yes, it's really become complicated to find a good film... unless you go for a little retrospective haha! There are still some, but it's very mainstream or tech oriented, I don't know, I clearly don't find myself in it...

Gah, I hate this attention culture and how the internet has been utterly taken over by consumerism and capitalism!!!

Yuck, that is indeed completely disgusting... I'm glad, and not at all surprised, that we share this too !

Cheer up again for your foot !
