Excellent news. I remember checking out one of the web released 720p versions (I think?) and thinking it looked amazingly clean. Buying for sure!
Info from multiple sources say that the movie will be included.I've seen the entire series already but i will buy it just because, take my money mr lynch

Can't wait. Hopefully it does include FWWM. Excited to see what else will be included as far as edited clips/scenes, interviews with Lynch/Frost/cast, and photography from shoots.
Awesome. Will buy. Hopefully FWWM will be included, just so I can have a whole collection in one format.

Last year (or year before, not sure) I started Twin Peaks on a whim and FINALLY getting around to watching the second season. (Mainly because it's on Netflix again).
Christ, the reveal was amazing. First half of S2 just knocks it out of the park so so so well.
I'm watching the post reveal part of S2 now and does/did anyone feel that anytime Cooper was offscreen, you just wanted it to fast forward to a scene with him again?
I appreciate the overall world building but I honestly find the Cooper arcs (with Windom) being the only thing I look forward to with every new episode.
Am I crazy?

Nah, that tends to be the general consensus. Even Cooper's storyline gets kind of annoying though. The show really loses steam in the 2nd half of the 2nd season.
Excellent news.
The ABC studio execs forced them to solve the mystery, which was just an awful, awful idea. Lynch was totally against it, of course, but it wasn't his network. Imagine if during Season 2 of Lost they explained what the island really was. ABC messed around with a formula that had been working perfectly and ended up with a ratings nosedive. There's still plenty of good parts in S2 and it's worth watching, but it's a shame to think what could've been.
hell yes. Death Waltz releases are so consistently great.
Stumbled onto this last night on Facebook.
Fucking love Lynch's hair. Always impressive.

I'm sad that he pretty much kills the idea of a Twin Peaks season 3. But in a different interview he says he has a new project under wraps, which is pretty exciting.

Did you see what they did to the Law & Order series? They'd have to give it to the A team for it to be remotely successful. They just have too much on their plate. Not sure there's much more to do with Twin Peaks as a game.

So I'm a day late, but I saw this on my twitter timeline. Her in universe death was 25 years ago :
RIP Laura Palmer; July 22nd 1972 - February 23rd 1989

Fuck, I would have done everything different yesterday had I known.

Any concrete word on a release date for the blu-ray set? March 25th is coming up awful fast.

I don't think it's even been formally announced yet outside of the leaks & David Lynch saying it's coming.
Bump:
So I just finished watching Twin Peaks for the first time. What a sublime show! I can see why everybody loves it now. Not sure why it took me so long, guess its been on / under my radar for years. I can't really fault anything about it.. it was just so fun to watch. I can only imagine if Lynch and Frost were given the complete creative freedom they should've got but no point dwelling on stuff like that.
Man, so many babes on this show! Epic. I also realised that Lara Flynn Boyle (Donna Hayward) was the villain in MIB2, man she looks pretty awful now what a shame.
Also, I can't forgot this freaking guy!
Literally straight into my top five favourite tv characters of all time. What a hero. Shame Harry Goaz didn't act in much after TP. I would've loved a spin off just about Andy and Lucy too.
Anyway i'm off to continue my adventure in tracking down and watching Fire Walk with Me.

Glad you liked it!
Be prepared for a very different experience with FWWM. It's much darker and more of a horror film than anything in TP.
Thats alright, I just need to see these characters some more! Its a shame re runs aren't shown on TV or anything, its the kinda show i'd just watch the odd episode again if I caught it on TV

Don't be surprised, like I was, that the actress for Donna is a different one. IIRC, Lara Flynn Boyle was filming something else at the time.

Donna being a different actress is one if the few things I really disliked about that film.
Melchiah

Yeah, it really felt odd, eventhough the actress replacing her was not bad, just different.

I prefer Donna 2.0 to Donna 1.0 actually.

I was pretty young when I saw Fire Walk with Me in a theater, 17 I think, and I remember thinking if there was some weird Lynchian reason for the switch. =D

I remember hearing the full cut clocks in at around 5 hours, which will be the longest time I've ever sat and paid attention to one thing.
There's no "full cut" yet, mind. The extra scenes aren't in the film.

You can start counting down from T-minus Two Weeks from release date before someone's going to have those scenes reinserted into the movie proper and made available for download on a slapped together tumblr/torrent combo.

just got to season 2.
I can't put my finger on why I like this show. Its campy, weird, not as sci-fi as I thought, soapy with the love stories. All reasons I shouldn't like it but I do. The whole package is just engrossing. Like WTF

Just started watching this after years of my friends bugging me about it.
It's not bad. I'm on episode 5 right now. I think I kept watching to hear Cooper talk about coffee

Question: is this supposed to be a kind of parody? Not fully of course but this seems like a general parody of small town stories and soap operas but I'm not sure if that was lynch's intent
His Wikipedia says he worked on the space shuttle. That's awesome

Struggling to get through the pilot... it's terrible.
Edit: At least the first 30 minutes are, seems to be picking up.
