What is in Z to A that isn’t released anywhere else? Have two vhs sets, two DVD sets and two blu ray sets… Is there anything in Z to A to make it worth buying? There's 2 exclusive Blu-ray discs, with these features: 18 (one for each part) segments of 'Behind the Curtain,' which is extra footage fro...

From a production standpoint, several people earned their salaries having Lynch bounce ideas off of them, giving yes or no answers to "is this idea feasible given the budget/schedule?" As for the content of those ideas, there was Frost (and Sherilyn Fenn!) in the scripting, but if you mean...

Again, you are virtually putting words in my mouth that were not said by me. All that I said was that Dougie teases were scripted and not accidental. That wasn't my intention, I apologize. I think I mistook your position and assumed too much of what you were seconding, and so conflated it with the ...

This is not uncommon now but I was prescribed anti-depressants at university and the idea of being 'depressed' or agitated has coloured my perspective ever since - even to the extent that I found The Return to be portraying a lot of depression and anxiety. Its a very agitated work and I think that ...

I disagree, and we can certainly disagree here, I respect your point of view. I just saw it differently, but saying it is "a bit too much" to me simply reinforces, in a wide stroke, what Brad was just talking about earlier. This actually gets into something I've noticed in these discussio...

Yeah, I don't quite get even the mild aversion to countered opinions. Isn't that the lifeblood of a discussion? Maybe it's a problem of perception; when I disagree and explain why, like enumbs says, my goal isn't conversion. Often I'm not even steadfast in what I'm saying, but more like teasing out ...

Those teases mean nothing to people seeing TP for the very first time. But for fans who had waited 25 years for the show to continue, and may have played a role in getting the project to see the light of day (due to their continued interest), teasing those same folks for 16 parts imploring that the...

Definitely. I do not remember all the details now, I do recall listing them in "the thread", but there were plenty of Dougie teases and traps: Dougie staring at the badge, flag, gun, eating cherry pie, coffee, hustling Ike the Spike, you name it. And never did he wake up. The biggest hint...

Also, this was a tangent a few pages ago, but I'm not sure "die hards are the ones with grievances" is any more generally true than "general audiences were left out." I myself am a diehard, I know plenty of diehards who were enthused, Blue Rose Mag crew for instance, and not to b...

Don't come at me with pitchforks (joke!) but - but - I did sometimes wonder if some critics were really kind to The Return because they weren't to FWWM, which was in retrospect reevaluated and lauded, and they were afraid of missing the boat again in case the same thing happened this time. It also ...

Regarding general audiences, just anecdotally, I've not met a single person in my personal life who knows what TP is and who wasn't head over heels for S3. One of my friends got into Lynch through S3, so was not at all a sycophant. Another had seen some of his films and thought well enough of them, ...

Another thing - it's easy to set up a book that's about memory lapses or false memories and then use that as a fallback if you screw up. I won't argue that at all, and I understand completely if that's anyone's take. Taken for granted that the books are about those themes, how well they justify tha...

And (correct me if I'm wrong, Mr. Reindeer, and I'll edit this) I think some of us thought he changes things after the fact after they'd been pointed out to him online or incorporated things like the ring? At least that was the suspicion anyway. I'm aware of the suspicion, but there are passages in...

They just seem like inconsistencies. I think he and Lynch both said they only rewatched some of the original series (maybe even only the pilot and the movie? maybe Frost rewatched a few more than that, but I think he also said he didn't do a full rewatch) so clearly if he didn't re-review all the e...

People are quick to blame Frost for whatever they don't like while making excuses for Lynch and heralding his unmovable art spirit and sticking it to the system and audience expectation. Perhaps I'm coming in from participating in a different era of the board (although I've lurked since the mid-200...
