The Nextlander Watchcast 054: Twin Peaks: Realization Time and The Last Evening
🕑 Added 2023-07-31 22:28:53 +0000 UTCThe season one finale of Twin Peaks is upon us, so it's time to play the game of Alive, Dead, or Arrested, and address the many, many cliffhangers we've been left to reckon with.
NOTE: There's about a nine minute chunk toward the end of the show where you may notice a slight dip in audio quality. One of our tracks got messed up, so that section is taken from a backup. Nothing was lost, just wanted to give the heads-up in case you noticed the change in quality.

Alex said they watched subbed in the discord.

I'd have to imagine it's the subbed version. Just like with other foreign stuff they've watched. But agree, would like confirmation.
Yorick
Are they watching it subbed or dubbed? I want to watch whichever way they are

Where do I find the link to the discord?

A friend watched and recommended Lain, and I forgot basically everything they told me about it. Looking forward to watching Lain finally. There’s plenty of good anime movies if y’all wanted to continue down that road. A Satoshi Kon block would be fun especially with how different some of those movies are. This probably is not everybody’s cup of tea, but in recent years I’ve enjoyed movies from Makoto Shinkai (Your Name, Suzume) and Mamoru Hosoda (Summer Wars, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time). Could also be fun to do a sample of different directors like that.

First off, LOVE the twin peaks talk, its one of my favorites series of all time and i cant wait for you guys to return and hear Brad and Vinny's take on discovering what actually happened that fateful night Laura Palmer was stricken from this mortal coil. Secondly, big time anime watcher here and I've never even heard of Lain, so I'm very intrigued to check it out along side you folks. Lastly, just keep up the great work you guys!

Damn, I hate anime... but I can't wait for Twin Peaks Season 2.
Zeemod
This was quite the finale. It's also gonna be my first time watching Lain. oh boy. The only circumstance I'd ever told myself I would likely watch it would be if there was a podcast talking about. So thanks for that.
