A spoilery complaint about Twin Peaks discourse

this concerns the final episode. after the jump

David Lynch does not explain his work for a reason; he wants us to take away our own experiences with it, and I get that. So perhaps it’s wrong to say that any given interpretation of the show’s ambiguous ending is wrong, per se. That said, what a crock of horseshit that theory that it’s actually a happy ending and the final scene represents Laura trapping and destroying “Judy” with some sort of trans-dimensional pain bomb is. Ah yes, the hero doddering in baffled confusion, the heroine screaming in terror at the sound of her possessed mother’s voice, the hero staring in fear, the power going out in a scary house, and a cut to black — that famous cinematic language for “happy ending” we all love to know
