About this deal

Each episode left fans craving more, but the delay also gave them time to properly digest what they’d seen.

who photographed The Art Life documentary) provides nearly five more hours of footage devoted to cast and crew milling around between takes, all presented with exceedingly pretentious voiceover narration and framing segments. In addition to cameo appearances for the series' cast, we also get some extra time with movie characters Chet Desmond, Sam Stanley and Phillip Jeffries (who actually has a somewhat coherent story), plus an epilogue that ties directly into the show's Season 2 finale. Like all previous home video releases, Agent Desmond's disappearance in this edition of the film concludes with a fade-to-black. I don't have an objection to film grain, but the way it's been digitized and compressed here frequently looks very noisy.Honestly, if you don't know the ins-and-outs of every character arc, plot point, and use of symbolism in both the old show and movie, don't even bother watching. It looks fine by the standards of a modern TV show, and Lynch still manages to craft striking images in a way only he can, but it left me longing for the director's past work. The promotional campaign for the revival series focused heavily on mysterious images and quick glimpses of familiar characters, with no indication at all about plot or story.

Image Galleries– Photos taken on set by actor Richard Beymer (Ben Horne), official publicity stills, and images of the 'Twin Peaks' collectible trading card set. And Disc Eight comes with the most substantial extra, which is a nearly five-hour pseudo-documentary Impressions: A Journey Behind the Scenes of Twin Peaks, divided into 10 chapters with a Play All option: The Man with the Gray Elevated Hair, Tell it Martin, Two Blue Balls, The Number of Completion, Bad Binoculars, See You On the Other Side Dear Friend, Do Not Pick Up Hitchhikers, A Bloody Finger in Your Mouth, The Polish Accountant, and A Pot of Boiling Oil. None of this has any story or structure, per se, but it's interesting for a glimpse of just how insanely complicated even the seemingly-simplest scenes can be to shoot.They take up an unnecessary amount of room and they’re perishable whereas the plastic cases last forever (and if they get damaged, you can easily get another one). Lynch has a habit of overshooting his movies and then paring them down to the essentials in editing. This whole episode, including the nuclear blast, the Woodsman himself, and his effect on the people of a small New Mexico town, is one of the most disturbing and artistic pieces of TV in ages. No one really knew what to expect going in, but for the director to pursue such a bold vision, with few footholds and mostly unanswered questions is vexing to be sure, but totally Lynchian. Lynch clearly was not interested in tying anything up with a bow, which shouldn't be a surprise at this point.

In almost every episode, I've noticed new details in the sets and costumes and production design that I never saw before.Storylines meandered, overemphasized goofy humor, and simply weren't as compelling as those in the first season. Over time, ownership and distribution shifted around among a host of labels, some of which no longer exist.

We also meet a variety of new characters, including Andy and Lucy’s son Wally (Michael Cera), Cooper’s doppelganger’s wife Janey-E (Naomi Watts), Cooper’s previous assistant Diane (Laura Dern), Agent Preston (Chrysta Bell), a pair of crooked casino owners (Jim Belushi and Robert Knepper), and a spineless insurance salesman (Tom Sizemore), among others. More frustrating is the continued lack of the DVD commentaries many of the Twin Peaks crew recorded for the show’s original DVD releases years ago. What a fantastic show this was and such a shame it was axed before its time, much like Laura Palmer herself. They're inundated with random characters and plot points that go nowhere and serve no purpose other than to fill screen time. On the other hand, the audio gets a little muddy whenever there's a lot going on in a scene, and I noticed what sounds like some distortion at high volumes.And even though it’s doubtful almost anyone was going to see Fire Walk With Me who didn’t watch the show, some of these scenes are especially random and only work in connection to a better knowledge of the full story that the show provides, such as two scenes that touch upon the affair between Norma Jennings (Peggy Lipton) and Ed Hurley (Everett McGill). Then he switches to interviewing the actors (Ray Wise, Grace Zabriskie and Sheryl Lee) as themselves and lightens the mood considerably. I started watching Twin Peaks for the first time a few weeks ago and have just finished watching Fire Walk With Me. For 'Fire Walk With Me', he filmed almost an entire second movie's worth of footage that he never used, including numerous scenes involving characters from the TV series that don't appear in the final movie at all (Pete, Josie, Big Ed, Sheriff Truman, Deputy Andy, Lucy and Dr. Featuring lovely video transfers and tons of bonus features both old and new, plus the legendary never-before-released 'Fire Walk With Me' deleted scenes, it's just about everything a fan could possibly want.
