Wrapped in Plastic
Anyone have any idea if the "Wrapped in Plastic" fellas are planning a new issue anytime soon? With the impending release of season 2 (and Inland Empire), I'm sort of inclined to expect something. In the same vein, I'd love to see a companion volume to "Full of Secrets".
"Every day, once a day, give yourself a present."
WIP is "on hiatus" - in fact, right now Craig & John are only publishing "Following Cerebrus," as "Spectrum" is on break too.
At the time of the last issue, I believe they announced that if enough new material surfaced, they would like to do more. Perhaps on an annual or bi-annual basis. I would think with the release of Season 2 on dvd, Inland Empire, the season 2 soundtrack, "Catching the Big Fish," the lecture tours, etc - there will be enough for at least one big issue by the end of 2007.
A follow-up to "Full of Secrets" had been planned, I believe - but has in all likelihood been scrapped. Lavery has, however, done simliar books for "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Lost."
FOS, for me, remains not only the best book ever written on Twin Peaks, but one of the best collections of essays about television ever.

Thanks for all the kind words about Wrapped In Plastic. We currently have no plans for a new issue but that may change as the year progresses.
Clearly there is much to write about. INLAND EMPIRE could take a number of issues to dissect. I've only seen it once and would need to see it at least twice more to provide a coherent analysis. Hopefully we will have a DVD version to watch soon.
I am thrilled that TP season two is finally being released on DVD. I almost gave up on it. We had been contacted a year ago to help provide some extras but then we never heard from the DVD producers again. Oh well. Happily, Craig and I do not appear on this set, which should be reason enough to go out and buy it. (I still cringe when I see that awful bit we did for the first season DVD.)
That's about it for an update. Would love to discuss IE or Twin Peaks if anyone is interested.

Hi John--welcome to our home. I met Craig on line ordering the very last issue you guys put out. I said somewhere in here that I had a subscription at the very beginning and used the magazine as my episode guide before we had the internet. Anyway, glad you came on line and looking forward to hearing inside information that comes your way!
Keep your eye on the doughnut, not on the hole.
John, great to hear from you! Where have you and Craig been? Don't put your selves down for the Season 1 DVD extra, that was awesome! And so charming. But in a manly way if you know what I mean.John wrote:Thanks for all the kind words about Wrapped In Plastic. We currently have no plans for a new issue but that may change as the year progresses.

I have 3 suggestions for you. 1) move to Austin 2) put out more issues of WIP and 3) let me come hang out at the office and waste time. I'm really very good at that.
Through the darkness of futures past,
the magician longs to see
One chants out,
between two worlds,
fire walk with me.

sloclub,
I love Austin and am down there frequently (I drove down for the INLAND EMPIRE screening in January).
Thanks fo the kind words about the Season One DVD, but really, that whole thing with us was a disaster. (You should have seen the *original* full-hour interview with Frost--now that would have been worth putting on the DVD.)
New issues of WIP are quite possible. Nothing scheduled. But quite possible.
