In Episode 151 below, we review Wonder Woman and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me. We also briefly revisit Fast Five and Furious 6. While exploring the etymology of the word “sweater” this week, Dave and I learn a little more about Kris than we bargained for. Before we get to the week’s new release, we offer fresh takes on films we watched a second time. Dave starts with his thoughts on David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me (at 3:38), which is still longer than it needs to be, but has three powerful set pieces and a bleak narrative where Laura Palmer looks freaked out a lot. I’m up next, with my insights on Fast Five and Furious 6 (at 11:44), two movies that stacked up very differently for me upon second viewing. Then all three of us take on WONDER WOMAN (at 17:50), a picture that’s far better than others in the DCU because it’s funnier, lighter on its feet, and takes itself seriously without going overboard. Our conversation gets slightly heated though, when I bring up several gripes I have with it. Wrestling matches are threatened, yet thankfully avoided, brother.
