There are a few missing pieces that I absolutely loved. The huckleberry muffin scene and the first family dinner scene, and the Ed and Norma scenes. Also the last few minutes of the Missing Peices serve as a sort of epilogue to the first series and a prologue to Season 3.
I watched a long! It was easy to play along since you made it easy to sync at the very start. Thanks a bunch, cant wait for The Return! You're awesome.
One bit that's fun now that you've seen the Cooper & Sam scene: in the first episode, Cooper tells Dianne (via tape) to send the evidence to Albert and his team, saying "Don't go to Sam. Albert seems to have more on the ball." This is before we've seen Albert. It's a little mean, but with lives at stake you can now see why he made that choice.
I just had the loveliest afternoon rewatching the Missing Pieces with you. It was such a shock when this came out on Blu-ray. We knew for YEARS that there were cut scenes and we had the script, but I never thought they would release this stuff. There was some rights issue, too. Laura under the fan and Mr. Mibbler's TWOOO BY FOOOUR are definately highligths for me. A few things: - The formica table: The little man is pretty blatandly talking self-awarely about being on a TV show ("The chrome reflects our image"). Some think that the little hole is what the jade ring is made out of. - Judy was supposed to be a normal character, Josie's sister who had business with Bowie's character. Then the whole Judy line from FWWM became a whole mystery for 25 years and in The Return it is adressed. But the cut scenes with Phillip Jeffrey's don't fit that anymore. - "I'm the arm" is quite literal: The little man is MIKE's cut off arm. In the final red room scene in FWWM he touches his stump to reconnect. - Concerning muffins: They have the shape of a nuclear explosion. 8oom! That's all I'm gonna say for now. CANNOT WAIT for you to experience The Return. It truly is something else. Uncut Lynch, no laxative.
The full versions of the Philip Jeffries scenes are great and I particularly love the scene of Laura smiling creepily at the ceiling fan - I wish they'd never been cut!
I wouldn't worry too much about constantly needing to talk and comment during a full reaction, they're mostly for people who just want an excuse to do a full rewatch themselves while also getting the reaction. Just be your normal self and people who want to see the full reaction will enjoy it. The only thing I'd say to improve this is either a verbal countdown before pushing play or a little timer counting down on the screen to help sync at the beginning. Otherwise this was perfect. I'm still totally baffled by people saying that this was needed before The Return. This was my second time watching TMP and I tried my best to find anything that gave more clarity for season 3 or set something up and I just find none of it necessary. Without being spoilery there are certainly some concepts and lines in this that are explored in The Return but they're set up perfectly fine in season 3 by itself. You'll be able to point and say "Oh, The Missing Pieces!" but it's not like you'll have a stronger understanding. So much of this is just fat that has nothing to do with the story and seems more like Lynch wanting to bring as many people back as possible because he enjoyed working with the cast and wanted to give them a job. Lynch was 15 years into his directing career at this point, he knew 100% that he was never going to be able to release a 4 hour movie and most initial workprints of films are significantly longer than the finished piece. I get that fans just want to spend more time with these characters, which is understandable, but all these additional scenes do is dilute the story at the center and turn this into an extended episode of Twin Peaks. We've had Twin Peaks. It's great. But this is suppose to be about truly experiencing what Laura was going through in her final days and you can't be fully immersed in her isolation and fear if you're cutting away to see Big Ed and Norma having their affair or Lucy not understanding that people can walk away from an intercom. I do appreciate having some of these scenes just because unfortunately not all of these actors lived to make it to The Return and it's nice to see them one more time. But they do not belong in the film. Some argue that the early Laura scenes like the family dinner or Laura helping her mom with the cigarette should be in the movie and I can at least see a narrative argument for those, but personally I like that in the finished film we're almost immediately gut-punched with Laura finding the pages torn from her diary and then it's just a free fall to the ending. I think it's more honest to the character's situation and much more respectful to the audience. We already know what's going on with Leland and if the film spent too much time going "Boy isn't Laura's life just super normal!" I think it would be a worse for it. Maybe if we started off with Laura at the beginning there would be room for some of this but instead we spend the opening with Gordon and Dale and Desmond. There are only two scenes that I wish had been left in. First is the scene with Laura and Donna going from The Roadhouse to The Power And The Glory. I've heard way too many people be confused thinking that the scene at The Glory is in some backroom at The Roadhouse so it helps clarify things, but also I love the venom that comes from Laura when she says to Donna "What a downer you are!" I think it just adds to the mixture of anger and love that she has toward Donna throughout the scene and I love the reaction that Moira Kelly gives her, you can feel Donna's heart silently breaking right there. The other scene is Leland coming home while Laura is hiding in the bushes. It's maybe the most horrifying thing that Lynch has ever filmed, I get chills all over my body when Leland looks at her the second time. Guess I gotta go make my own Q3 fan edit with those two scenes added in! I can't believe that you're already at The Return! Feels like we're coming to the end even though there is still a lot left to go. Going to be a lot of interesting discussions in the coming weeks, excited to see your reaction to this masterpiece!
It's not clear to me if you recall, but the convenience store was first mentioned way back in the dream sequence from episode 3, when Mike's talking about him and Bob. At first it seems just a place where they hang out, "We lived among the people, I think you say 'convenience store', we lived above it," but obviously it has become more important by _Fire Walk with Me._
@@DontrelleRoosevelt "Information, images, video, etc. that are included as part of something such as a website". I'm not calling Twin Peaks content, that's art!
20:43 I’m not sure having that ring would be good for you. 1:03:57 When the symbol first showed up in Owl Cave it _was_ the other way up, but Earle’s turning it to the way it’s always shown in FWWM was what caused the petroglyphs to appear.
oooookee dokey... first, second and third... hats off... someone mentioned maybe a timer, but whatever... the folks who mentioned the having that strip on the outside worked just fine for me... i suppose, my only... it's not even a criticism... i know someone is helpin' with the formatting/video editing from the Q/A video... I'm just curious if they have seen this already...? I will very very happily watch every episode of the return this way to help save you guys time, but i hope ya'll can still make openings because they are amazing :) i dunno... i'm completely incapable of doin' somethin' like that myself, so wanting you guys to do it is purely selfish... lol, long story short, whatever you guys do, I'm gonna enjoy... that said (i put it here, but it's kinda an after thought), i know we can do it like this video for all of season 3, but other folks have mentioned patreon... hmmmm... i would... it's... i don't have patreon... i would get it to watch this with ya... i don't know if this channel would suffer from a lack of editing... but i don't know anything about being a youtube content producer... i think it would be weird for someone to watch a video if they didn't already know what they were watching... but then there are old people like me who maybe watched it years ago, but no longer own it (i do, but, hopefully you catch my drift) and might not like a youtube thing that they have to spend money to enjoy... whereas the patreon folks (i think) understand that it's like that... that you gotta have your own copy... whatever... I'm not a content creator... as for talkin' about the stuff in this video or anything about season three... i could just go on and on, but... yeah... you'll see... all i will say is that at some point in the not too distant future i am going to refer you to an old video of yours because there is a terrible pun i've been waiting on (you will be underwhelmed)... and while you seem to be gettin' a bit better with the muffin thing... at some point, if you happen to see it, i am going to tell you to have a glass of red wine with ya... it's nothing (at-fuckin-all) like the muffin thing... again, love what ya'll put together...
Omg I feel like it's a bit niche for most but I've been looking for content like this!! I don't like all the little skips and jumps most reaction content does to avoid copyright, and I actually have all the video files for twin peaks on my PC so it's very easy to do a watchalong like this! I just use the little pop out feature on youtube to put you up in the corner of my screen.
I now realise (after reading the comments) why there aren't any actual clips of the Missing Pieces. Sadly, I'm a technology moron, so wouldn't be able to work out how to sync stuff up/watch everything on one device (I only have one). I'm glad you watched them though 😊
Since you like the music so much you should definitely check out Angelo Badalamenti describing how he came to write Laura's theme. He's a lovely old man (sadly gone now) and it's great hearing him talk about working with Lynch. ruclips.net/video/e-eqgr_gn4k/видео.html
Hi! The very last scenes ( after Laura’s murder) take place exactly after the end of season 2 ( basically after Coop and Annie got out from the Lodge.. it should be one month, not some months, because every episode of the show, season 1 and 2 should count for one day, and it’s a total of 30 episodes- plus there are three days after Leland death where we don t see what happens as the captions say “ three days after” in the episode of Leland’s wake- funeral); the little man / arm asking him the same question he asked before in Laura’s dream :” is it future is it past “ it has to do with the fact that in the Lodge time is non linear. The “ good” Dale now is stuck there and he can’t leave and the one in his room’s bathroom is his doppelgänger with Bob inside. Philip Jeffries used to be an FBI agent who disappeared about two years before Teresa’s murder, he was related to a certain Judy ( which at this point we don’t really know anything about). It’s not clear if when he was in Buenos Aires and he disappeared, he jumped two years forward or if it was just a moving in space; the year in Philadelphia for Coop, Gordon and Albert should be 1988 considering that Teresa was killed one year before Laura. Gordon, when he sees Jeffries entering the room, clearly says that he ( Jeffries) was gone missing for two years.
Congrats! You are now (more or less 😉) ready for season 3, AKA "The Return". FWIW, my fav scene from the missing pieces was special agent's Chester Desmond own MO ("MODUS OPERANDI!!!") in the boxing match. Man, Chet is SCARY!
@@atomicnumber34 Chris Isaak wanted it to last that long, no doubt about it, lol. He was a light heavyweight amateur boxer and even, if I'm not mistaken, a former winner of a regional Golden Gloves championship. I can hear him nag already "Please David, make it a long scene? I want to play a wicked game!" The scene is overdone indeed, and that's why I like it. But it was a bit too much Twin Peaks season 2 telly series 'humour', so I understand that it got deleted.
My preference is for an edited version so I can see what you are reacting to. I have the Missing Pieces to watch alongside this but it's too much of a pain to sync it up. And editing out when you're making notes or haven't got anything to say is probably better than this. I really hope you go back to edited for The Return.
We tried to include the full thing but even a pixelated version received a copyright strike and we couldn’t post it. We’re hoping people can at least line it up.
@@Reel_Food I may have gone to an editor to cut this video together with the original footage... (I use a Chromebook, it won't let me show two videos simultaneously!) Oh btw, something I wanted to point out was that 'the Arm' is a reference to Mike, the One-Armed Man. The dwarf is like his evil mini-clone. Mike cut off his arm to escape the Black Lodge, and it became its own entity.
For those confused about how to watch this, you need to have 2 devices for a watch along. 1 to screen what the reactor is watching. 1 to screen the reactor. I used my RUclips on tv to watch The Missing Pieces (it's all on there in individual scenes by "Mr C"), just press "play all" and it plays. I watched Reel Food reaction on my phone at same time.
Fun fact: Mary Reber, who owns the real Palmer House, was cleaning out the basement when she moved in. She found the axe from the dining room scene mounted on a board. She didn’t know how to display it with her decor (which is not logging-themed), so she sold it to a local fan who built a red room in his basement. You gotta come see it all after season 3!
David Lynch is the only film maker keeping magic alive in the film medium. All true art is half magic. A partial dream. Maybe Peter Greenaway is halfway close. Mid-career Peter Greenaway might be half close.
I am really confused about the "Few Months Later" part. As per my understanding, it should have been "Few Weeks later."... I am glad you watched it, you will understand why we wanted you to watch The Missing Pieces when you watch Season 03, both in terms of some of the content that is really crucial to season 03, but also in terms of pacing. Can't wait for your reaction of Season 03.
I don't have 2 devices or pop up windows. It was great watching the first 2 seasons with you and was looking forward to the third. I guess I'm just s.o.l.
Philip Gerard, the shoe salesman (aka Mike) took off his arm with the tattoo, that must be the Arm in the Black Lodge. I think all the nasty scenes you feared were in the movie.
Being the biggest fan of yours, I wanted to give you my honest opinion about the unedited video. Let’s get the negative out of the way first: if we can’t follow along and see the video with you, it’s not as fun to experience. I understand that copyrights would make it impossible to include them, but it’s almost just abstract opinions with scenes we can’t feel with you. With that said, I do love the almost real time feel of you experiencing these scenes without interruption. The down moments in between don’t bother me because that’s exactly what these pieces include. They’re not all winners, so you won’t be blown away by every one of them, so that’s normal. The video was still entertaining to experience because of your emphasized reactions, and I think I love your snort laugh as much as I do your cousin it
But you can follow along and watch. You just need 2 devices. That's how all watch-alongs work. Watch Missing Pieces on youtube on your computer or tv if you dont own it, and Reel Food reaction on your phone.
@@zanyzander It’s about convenience, brother. If people watch a reaction page, they don’t want to do more work for it. I’m a gigantic fan of this page, which is why I left feedback. I’m not here to hurt or be personal
@@wdfmideviland then there’s me who prefers this format, I have all the files on my hard drive so I can very easily pop out the reaction and put it up in the corner. No annoying cuts and you get to see the whole reaction.
The reason why a man from another place called himself the arm is because he is the cut arm of Mike and when he make the sound, you could hear it when Mike drive the van chasing Leland and in the ending you could see that arm/a man from another place is touching Mike missing arm and they both talk suggested they are connected.
Leo frenetically cleaning the floor and trying to teach Shelley is reminiscent again of him being the victim of abuse. I definitely think that while the show focuses on Laura, there is also a larger theme of generational trauma and abuse as well.
There's a character calling themselves 'The Arm' and another who's missing an arm... Hmm... People seem to be struggling to understand that you're supposed to view your own version of the original material alongside the unedited reaction (nobody reads descriptions apparently), so you probably should reiterate the difference at the start of the next unedited video, should you decide to do those for S3. An unedited alternative could be nice, especially with the pacing of The Return which is quite relaxed. Can't wait for S3!

Okay, as long as you tell us to watch along on our copy or streaming service, this was fun. A note, the ARM. Who is missing an arm in Twin Peaks? Also, that scene with Harry, Hawk, and Andy is actually kinda important because they took their surveillance off Leo. If they kept it on Leo, they could have stopped Laura's death. Jeffries is an agent who has gotten a little too obsessed with the Lodge stuff. I would love this type of commentary for Part 8 of Season. Fans, am i right?
We released the Missing Pieces as a commentary which requires the viewer to follow along with their own copy, but plan on releasing an edited version which will include the footage down the road!
But you can follow along and watch. You just need 2 devices. That's how all watch-alongs work. Watch Missing Pieces on youtube on your computer or tv if you dont own it, and Reel Food reaction on your phone.

Sorry we can’t post the entire thing on RUclips, so a commentary typically only contains my reaction and requires the viewer to follow along watching the movie on a different screen. But we will also be releasing an edited version down the road.

2 screens aren't completely necessary. I just have Reel Foods in a pop-out window in the corner.
Always keep in mind you need to be patient while watching The Return😉
It's outstanding though!
„the Return“ is like artwork. You need to take your time to be able to really appreciate it.
I know you’re probably busy but an edited video rather than a watch along suits me a bit better…I know 🙄it’s all about me 😊
Don’t worry. There will be an edited version available down the road.
@@Reel_Food many thanks, love your work
Stay true to yourself....I'm sure Dale or The Log Lady would say.
Fun fact: Mary Reber, who owns the real Palmer House, was cleaning out the basement when she moved in. She found the axe from the dining room scene mounted on a board. She didn’t know how to display it with her decor (which is not logging-themed), so she sold it to a local fan who built a red room in his basement. You gotta come see it all after season 3!
@@cakejunkiexo somehow, imagining Mary finding that. 😂😂😂😂

David Lynch is the only film maker keeping magic alive in the film medium. All true art is half magic. A partial dream. Maybe Peter Greenaway is halfway close. Mid-career Peter Greenaway might be half close.
I am really confused about the "Few Months Later" part. As per my understanding, it should have been "Few Weeks later."... I am glad you watched it, you will understand why we wanted you to watch The Missing Pieces when you watch Season 03, both in terms of some of the content that is really crucial to season 03, but also in terms of pacing. Can't wait for your reaction of Season 03.
By the way, I watched along with my copy of The Missing Pieces. Damn Fine Weekend. Thank you.
I don't have 2 devices or pop up windows. It was great watching the first 2 seasons with you and was looking forward to the third. I guess I'm just s.o.l.
She didn't say that it was just going to be like this going forward, in fact the opposite.
Don’t worry - we will return to your regularly scheduled programming!! (Check out our newest post if you haven’t already!)
Good Feedback!!
I also prefer the edited videos. I tried to sync it up and it didn’t quite work out.
Fair enough! I appreciate your feedback!
This was fun but I would prefer edited (mostly bc I wasn't able to watch The Missing Pieces myself alongside)
Thank you for the feedback!
Philip Gerard, the shoe salesman (aka Mike) took off his arm with the tattoo, that must be the Arm in the Black Lodge.
I think all the nasty scenes you feared were in the movie.
I would prefer edited clips in the video. Just my point oh-two.
Thank you for the feedback!
Being the biggest fan of yours, I wanted to give you my honest opinion about the unedited video. Let’s get the negative out of the way first: if we can’t follow along and see the video with you, it’s not as fun to experience. I understand that copyrights would make it impossible to include them, but it’s almost just abstract opinions with scenes we can’t feel with you. With that said, I do love the almost real time feel of you experiencing these scenes without interruption. The down moments in between don’t bother me because that’s exactly what these pieces include. They’re not all winners, so you won’t be blown away by every one of them, so that’s normal. The video was still entertaining to experience because of your emphasized reactions, and I think I love your snort laugh as much as I do your cousin it
But you can follow along and watch. You just need 2 devices. That's how all watch-alongs work. Watch Missing Pieces on youtube on your computer or tv if you dont own it, and Reel Food reaction on your phone.
@@zanyzander It’s about convenience, brother. If people watch a reaction page, they don’t want to do more work for it. I’m a gigantic fan of this page, which is why I left feedback. I’m not here to hurt or be personal
@@wdfmideviland then there’s me who prefers this format, I have all the files on my hard drive so I can very easily pop out the reaction and put it up in the corner. No annoying cuts and you get to see the whole reaction.
The reason why a man from another place called himself the arm is because he is the cut arm of Mike and when he make the sound, you could hear it when Mike drive the van chasing Leland and in the ending you could see that arm/a man from another place is touching Mike missing arm and they both talk suggested they are connected.
Your face itself is a reaction.... you don't need to be constantly talking.
Leo frenetically cleaning the floor and trying to teach Shelley is reminiscent again of him being the victim of abuse. I definitely think that while the show focuses on Laura, there is also a larger theme of generational trauma and abuse as well.
There's a character calling themselves 'The Arm' and another who's missing an arm... Hmm...
People seem to be struggling to understand that you're supposed to view your own version of the original material alongside the unedited reaction (nobody reads descriptions apparently), so you probably should reiterate the difference at the start of the next unedited video, should you decide to do those for S3. An unedited alternative could be nice, especially with the pacing of The Return which is quite relaxed. Can't wait for S3!
I tried to watch it but unfortunately, not knowing what you're looking at didn't work for me. Sorry. :(
U need to have 2 devices for a watch along. 1 to screen what the reactor is watching. 1 to screen the reactor.

Please, please, please post „The Return“ Season edited again.
We will be returning to your regularly scheduled programming for The Return!
Okay, as long as you tell us to watch along on our copy or streaming service, this was fun. A note, the ARM. Who is missing an arm in Twin Peaks? Also, that scene with Harry, Hawk, and Andy is actually kinda important because they took their surveillance off Leo. If they kept it on Leo, they could have stopped Laura's death. Jeffries is an agent who has gotten a little too obsessed with the Lodge stuff.
I would love this type of commentary for Part 8 of Season. Fans, am i right?
@atomicnumber34 yeah, I kinda regretted even mentioning it, but I was being selfish. 😂😉
I preferred the older form of reaction vid.
Thank you for the feedback!
So you got it blocked? Nothing watchable here, apparently.
We released the Missing Pieces as a commentary which requires the viewer to follow along with their own copy, but plan on releasing an edited version which will include the footage down the road!
Oof, censored.
Can't rock with the format, gotta have it onscreen 🤷🏼♂️
Uhh would have loved to see and like, but I guess you noticed that your video view is black and silent...
Had to unlike.
They can't put the whole thing unedited with no visual adjustment or youtube won't allow it.
But you can follow along and watch. You just need 2 devices. That's how all watch-alongs work. Watch Missing Pieces on youtube on your computer or tv if you dont own it, and Reel Food reaction on your phone.
Please watch the Q2 fanedit of FWWM including the missing pieces before starting the return. Just for yourself, trust me it makes more sense.
Please don't. If Lynch intended these two to be together, then he would have released a director's cut. He intended it to be two separate entities.
@@pamelatarajcak5634 he intended this but the studio not...
For them was a 4h movie unthinkable...
Don't write bs when you don't know the facts
Unfortunately this edit is pretty much impossible to find. Been looking for a way to watch it for a few years and no luck.
@@anthonyfogel1935i can't post the link here. It always disappears.
But it's the first entry on google if you search q2 fanedit twin peaks fire walk with me. Archive org
for what it's worth, the internet archive has the blue rose edition... just sayin...
Oh no...why the blurred images???
Sorry we can’t post the entire thing on RUclips, so a commentary typically only contains my reaction and requires the viewer to follow along watching the movie on a different screen. But we will also be releasing an edited version down the road.
