Twin Peaks: The Entire Mystery

I bought my copy from Deep Discount Entertainment for a few cents less than what Amazon wanted. It arrived well packaged, all in one piece, and only took a week to show up in my mailbox. I have had no issues with the BluRay so far and I've watched every disc. Now for my spoiler free, already been said by a thousand other people, review. This is a fantastic set. I couldn't imagine trying to watch this show with commercials when it was originally airing, nor can I fathom how it was on ABC! Twin Peaks is a show unlike any other. It has elements of horror, comedy, melodramatic romance, paranormal happenings, all rolled into one incredible soap opera-esque program. I love soap operas so I was fully immersed in everything going on. Okay that's a lie, I couldn't have cared less about Evelyn Marsh or the character played by Billy Zane. Lana was annoying. I also laughed at James a lot, like I could never take the guy seriously but I can't imagine Twin Peaks without him (except for the last few episodes anyway). Agent Dale Cooper played by the delightful Kyle MacLachlan, enters the town of Twin Peaks to investigate the murder of beloved high school student Laura Palmer. Laura had secrets, very dark secrets. Twin Peaks is a weird town. Dale Cooper is a wonderfully weird guy so he fits right in. Dale quickly became one of my favorite TV characters ever and he turns out to be the least weird of all the Special Agents we meet. I never really knew what was going to happen next and I probably laughed several times throughout almost every episode. Somethings are genuinely funny, like almost everything involving Nadine. Other things are so bizarre and out there that all I could do was laugh and say "What the hell just happened?" (Like the fate of Josie, or Leland at his daughter's funeral). Some argue the show lost it's way in season 2 but I enjoyed it. Fire Walk With Me is a prequel but you must watch all of Twin Peaks or else FWWM will make even less sense. FWWM is mostly about the final days of Laura Palmer. The story focuses heavily on Laura's terrifying reality. Characters from Twin Peaks appear, including Laura, Leland, James, Bobby, Shelly, Leo, a recast Donna, and a few others. Cooper, Albert, and Gordon appear briefly. I wasn't super crazy about FWWM but I enjoyed seeing more of Ray Wise (he is an underrated treasure but I feel that way about most of the cast of Twin Peaks). The Agent Cooper scenes were my favorites. I felt worse for Laura after watching the movie, you see things from her perspective and you realize she never had a chance. No wonder the poor girl was partying and doing drugs. James really tried to help her (he comes off better here than in the series) but there was nothing he could have done. Edit: FWWM is very vital in regards to the new series, a must watch before you begin season 3. The Missing Pieces are scenes cut from FWWM. Many other Twin Peaks residents appear in these scenes. One of the most compelling scenes cut is the very last one. It picks up right from the end of the final episode and we get a few minutes of what would have happened next. I found it fascinating. There are many other special features scattered throughout the set, I have not had time to explore them all. I highly reccommend this set if you want to buy the series. Though it has another disc of extras, the 10 disc set is way more expensive. The DVD set does not include Fire Walk With Me and it would cost more to buy the series on DVD and the FWWM DVD than this BluRay. Twin Peaks may not be for everyone but if you have a strange sense of humor and you're open to watching something that manages to be as fun as it is disturbing, you may appreciate the world Lynch and Frost have created.

I am thrilled to have this set! I remember watching Twin Peaks when it originally aired and feeling cheated when the third season was cancelled. It had a quirky yet dark quality that drew me in instantly, and even thought it seemed to lose its way during the second season, there was always something in each episode that resonated with me and kept me coming back for more. The music was achingly beautiful, the characters unique, and the story line intriguing. I fell in love with Cooper and the entire Sheriff's team, not to mention Big Ed and Norma. I laughed, cried, sighed, and pondered my way happily through the pilot, both seasons,and the FWWM movie. I am truly giddy over a chance to re-watch it all! While I do wish it had been offered on DVD (for those fans who do not have a Blue Ray player) and I am sincerely sympathetic to everyone who already bought the Gold Box Set (thinking the collection was as complete as it ever would be), I am basing my five star review solely on the beauty and content of this set. Both movies and all the episodes have exquisite picture and sound, and I am thrilled to have 90 minutes of extra FWWM footage. Plus, each disk has its own mix of special features, including Log Lady Introductions. My one complaint is that there was no content booklet added. Below I have copy pasted a detailed list of what is on each disk (this list was originally posted by another reviewer; I do not remember their name). I am reprinting it because it is such a great way to show you what you get with this set.

Twin Peaks no es mi serie favorita ni David Lynch es mi director favorito. Me gustan más "Los Soprano" , "The Wire", "Six feet under" o "Breaking Bad" por ejemplo, pero reconozco que esta serie es muy buena y única. Y esta caja con 10 blurays, con las 2 primeras temporadas (30 episodios) y extras como la peli "Fire walk with me" viene con un sonido y una imagen maravillosa. Con múltiples audios y subtítulos ( está el inglés y el español entre muchos otros) y con un precio rondando los 20€ pues obviamente todo amante del cine debe comprárselo. Pero es que aunque no te guste la serie, estamos hablando de 10 blurays por 20€. A unas malas los pones en el balcón para espantar a las palomas... Reconozco que ví la serie entera hace unos 20 años y me dejó un poco confuso ( a quien no?). Pero ahora, como sé que lo importante no es descubrir quien mató a Laura Palmer sino ver cómo disfruta Dale Cooper con su café y su tarta de cereza pues la estoy disfrutando enormemente. Cómo lograron mezclar momentos de terror (porque a veces me da miedo) con momentos de drama y de comedia es algo que pocas series han logrado hasta ahora. Además la música de Badalamenti es preciosa, hipnótica, onírica, sugerente, maternal, mesmerizante, perturbadora...... en definitiva, lynchiana. Además me estoy leyendo también el libro "Regreso a twin peaks" de la editorial Errata Naturae y el placer es doble pues me hace ver cosas que obviamente no sabía. Hay una entrevista a David Chase (creador de los soprano) y reconoce que algunas cosas influyó en Los Soprano. La entrevista a Lynch es muy interesante.. En definitiva, la recomiendo ya no sólo si eres fan de la serie, sino si te gusta el cine (surrealista) en general En fin, espero que mi valoración haya sido útil

Et il auras fallu attendre 24 ans avant d'avoir le mystère complet, 25ans dans le monde de la série néanmoins. Et le moins qu'on puisse dire avec cette édition c'est que Lynch et son équipe n'ont pas fait les choses à moitié. Une restauration d'image des plus réussie tant pour la série que pour le film (mais était ce vraiment nécessaire ? Twin Peaks n'avait pas plus de charme avec son grain prédominant ? Ces couleurs baveuses ? Oui ça faisait partie de ses nombreux charmes mais ne mettons pas à la poubelle ce bel effort éditorial, car là nous avons vraiment l'impression d'être devant une œuvre cinématographique tout le long grâce au piquet d'image. Je ne développerais pas plus sur l'aspect technique je ne suis pas un professionnel) et de même sur la bande sonore présentée en 7.1 pour la VO (JE NE PARLERAIS PAS DE LA VF CAR PARLER DE VF POUR TWIN PEAKS REVIENT A DIRE QUE SHAKESPEARE TROUVE SA SEULE VALEUR EN TRADUCTION CHEZ LIBRIO) et pour les nostalgique de la VF elle est néanmoins disponible en 1.0. Ensuite parlons Bonus,: une montagne d'archives inédites et tout ce qui est disponible sur Twin Peaks en documentaire officiel est dans le coffret. Notons la présence des fameuses scènes coupées de FWMM et d'inédites de la série et le court métrage "Between two World" avec une première partie sympathique sur ce qui est arrivé à la famille Palmer depuis la fin de la série (on peut regretter le fait que ces dialogues puissent paraitre sans intérêt car oui ils le sont, malgré le plaisirs de retrouver les personnages on n'apprend pas grand chose de nouveau, en réalité cela ne rajoute rien à la série ! Mais ne boudons pas notre plaisirs, les acteurs sont en forme ! Et ce fut un plaisirs de les revoir !). Je ne parlerais pas des scènes coupées et alternatives car je ne les ais pas encore vues, et en plus ça serait dommage de gâcher la surprise (une seule chose néanmoins une se nomme "Diane and Cooper" voilà j'espère avoir aiguisé votre curiosité :D ). Maintenant sur la série elle même, elle est parfaite, rien à dire, tout est bon (même la deuxième partie de la saison 2 trouve grâce à mes yeux ! Et oui les fans sont peu objectifs). Et le film est de mon point de vue cauchemardesque, beaucoup disent (des fans) que c'est mauvais, mais je ne suis pas d'accord, pour moi le film a bel et bien sa place dans l'univers Twin Peaks, il est ce que Frost et Lynch n'ont pas pu montrer à la télévision, c'est à dire l'horreur de ********* et des pratiques *********** (Et oui je ne peux pas dire sans spoiler) mais il faut voir le film après la série ! Et dans le meilleur des cas enchainer ensuite sur le pilote (peut être la version internationale aussi présente dans ce coffret monstre !) Seul point négatif le packaging est très jolie mais il ne me semble pas très résistant. Mais ne boudons rien surtout après le désastre de l'édition DVD de TF1 Par contre je ne sais pas, pour les possesseurs du DVD si l'achat est indispensable. Car le prix est quand même élevé même si nous en avons pour notre argent. Mais si j'avais eu le DVD je doutes que j'aurais acheté le blu ray ensuite. Pour conclure : Les hiboux ne sont pas ce qu'il semble

ツイン・ピークス。若い頃にはまって、大人になっても見たくて、買ってしまいました。おもしろい！

Una maravilla, caja en perfecto estado, tal cual a la imagen, con textura, los discos perfectamente divididos por las fotografías de la serie, en múltiples idiomas incluyendo el español

Let's be honest with each other, this show is far to weird and niche for someone to randomly stumble into this amazon listing, leaving two possibilities: You already love Twin Peaks, Or you're interested about getting into it. Fortunately, the answer both of those groups are waiting to hear is just 'buy it already'. Just hit the button, there really isn't anything else that's like it and it's a fantastic watch. Only disappointment is that the follow-up series isn't included, but you can't have your cake and eat it, eh?
