I'd love to buy that set but I fear the price. I love that cover art - the gold, the big-ass lettering, the black lodge pattern on the road. What do you think - $69.99?
Oh I'm sure Amazon will have it in the $40 range. I'm going to pick it up for all the extras. Also, I'd rather have an official copy of the pilot than a bootleg.
The box is nice but the typography could be better. They think we can't tell the difference but some of us can, damn it!
I actually watched the European DVD of the pilot last month. I was absolutely stunned at how great it was; how well it held up. I hadn't seen it in a long, long time.
Then I watched "episode 1" (really, episode 2) and noticed, for the first time, how incredibly conspicuous the switch is from the 100%-location-shooting-in-Washington-State pilot to the Los Angeles-shot series. (I wasn't as smart about that stuff back then.) The Double-R Diner, the Sheriff's station, the sawmill interior etc. etc. all look completely different, with that television-style "Kubrick Jr." source-lighting out the frosted windows everywhere that they do a little bit better these days. Anyway, never mind the production. Twin Peaks, the best there ever was (until Lost, The Sopranos and maybe one or two others like NYPD Blue or Galactica (but I'm reaching).
