Finally! Twin Peaks on DVD!

Well, the title says it all. Scheduled release date is December 4th. I’ve already pre-ordered.

Woo-Hoo!

Woohoo!!

There is a God!!

Thanks for passing on that fantastic news!

All right! Thanks for the heads-up!

I’ll be placing an order. Thanks for the info.

The two-hour pilot will not be included. I don’t know the details but there is some argument over the rights to it. It’s a shame, because the pilot was quite possibly the best movie, theatrical or TV, that came out that year.

Is Fire Walk With Me on DVD yet?

Yay! Now I can retire my poor quality VHS box set.

Can someone who knows more about film/video transfer than I do explain how exactly this tape set looks so bad? It’s not just my copy, everyone I know who has one reports the same thing. It’s grainy, and everything looks orange. How can a company release such a poor quality and not very cheap video set?

Also, any reports of special features on the DVD?

I just checked out the major DVD review sites and, boy, does this suck.
Patience. We’ve waited this long…

I was going to buy the boxed set some time back, but every review I read complained about the poor quality. I assume a big part of it is that the tapes are probably recorded in EP mode, to cram so much footage onto the 4 or 5 tapes present. I missed this series when it was first shown, saw the pilot, read up on it, and have been wanting to watch the whole deal for some time now.

occ, be prepared to say the following line A LOT after nearly every episode:

“What the hell WAS that?”
