I have a feeling that's a stand in cover. Though I like the idea of the dream floor design as the road.patrick wrote:That cover art is atrocious.

[DVD producer] Charles [de Lauzirika] talked about his work on Twin Peaks, to which the people in the room erupted. It's really nice to know that people still love that series so much. In fact, this Twin Peaks boxed set sounds pretty amazing. Both versions of the pilot, European and American, deleted scenes from both seasons, and "loads of extras." He showed off scenes from the feature length documentary included on the DVD called"Secrets from Another Place: Creating Twin Peaks" and also some footage from "A Slice of Lynch", which is conversations with the cast and with guess who. The doc features tons of interviews with cast members saying "I still don't know who killed Laura Palmer", which sort of freaks me out and makes me want to watch the show again.

Well, the font is, at least. I love the dream floor road, even if the whole GOLD EDITION idea is a put-off. A Platinum Edition looms in the future.patrick wrote:That cover art is atrocious.
It appears they're still going with that ugly-ass cover art linked to earlier. Talk about definitive though! Those supplements sound wonderful. Supposedly Lynch created much of the doc himself.flyonthewall2983 wrote:From thedigitalbits:
CBS and Paramount have just officially announced the DVD release of a title we previewed at our Comic-Con panel last week... the Twin Peaks: Definitive Gold Box Edition. The 10-disc set will street on 10/30 (SRP $108.99). It will include both versions of the pilot episode (including the international version) and all 29 episodes from seasons one and two. You'll also get Log Lady introductions for each episode, never-before-seen deleted scenes, production documents, the 4-part Secrets from Another Place: Creating Twin Peaks documentary (includes Northwest Passage: Creating the Pilot, Freshly Squeezed: Creating Season 1, Where We're From: Creating the Music and Into the Night: Creating Season 2), the A Slice of Lynch retrospective roundtable discussion video, the Return to Twin Peaks featurette, 13 TV spots, 3 image galleries (The Richard Beymer Gallery, Unit Photography and Twin Peaks Trading Cards), 3 Georgia Coffee commercials, Julee Cruise's Falling music video, 8 interactive maps and Kyle MacLachlan's monologue and Twin Peaks sketch from Saturday Night Live. The episodes have all been remastered from the original negatives (a process personally supervised by Lynch) and will be presented in the original full frame aspect ratio with audio in both newly-mixed Dolby Digital 5.1 and the original 2.0. That is one damn fine slice of cherry pie! You'll find the final cover artwork below.
what a great idea. sure, it's the kind of thing you only watch once, but that's why it's an "extra."flyonthewall2983 wrote:From thedigitalbits:

Or the entire studio album ("Falling into the Night" or whatever it's called). I had it on cassette tape (yes, they used to sell music on cassette tape), but it now suffers all the deficiencies of a nearly 20 year old cassette tape (as well as the deficiencies of a brand new cassette tape).Jean-Luc Garbo wrote:I wonder if they could include Julee Cruise's SNL performance of the theme song, too.
Her Lynch-related CDs are still in print (and available used for cheeeeep).Rich Malloy wrote:Or the entire studio album
I haven't considered it.domino harvey wrote:Has no one considered that Lynch himself probably asked them to right-align the text? It certainly wouldn't be out of character.
That's my impression. I think we're losing all the excellent interviews also. Artisan's s1 set remains a keeper.Rsdio wrote:So are we losing the commentaries from the first season then? I've not seen any mentioned..
I actually think the former explanation is far more likely than the latter.dadaistnun wrote:It could be a matter of Artisan not licensing the commentaries to Paramount, but it's more likely that Lynch asked them to be dropped.
The pilot and all season 2 episodes were retransferred using the original camera negative.
David Lynch set the look by adding his signature "coral" hue and approving the color timing of the retransfers.
After the episodes were remastered, a thorough clean-up was performed to remove negative dirt, scratches and stains on the pilot and all 29 episodes.
For all season 1 episodes, existing HD masters were re-color timed from David Lynch's notes so that all episodes across the series would seamlessly match.
For the pilot and all 29 episodes, a brand-new 5.1 mix was performed, approved and signed-off by David Lynch.
That Lynch quote cracks me up. It reminds me of, "Yes, that's a human ear alright."souvenir wrote:I have the Gold Box set in-hand and it's quite eye-catching. There's a funny quote from Lynch on the back that says, "I think this is a great definitive Twin Peaks Gold Set..." Inside there are ten discs, arranged in individual trays (kind of like the Twilight Zone Definitive complete series set) and an envelope with postcards. There are twelve postcards inside, but it seems there are a total of sixty-one different cards, presumably sprinkled among the sets. Kind of a silly gimmick.
