Re: Twin Peaks - Series & Fire Walk With Me
I hope that's true, but we've been told similar thing in the past and the deals have always fallen through due to Lynch's stubborness. Up to now, he has refused to release the scenes unless he could fully post-produce, edit and sound design them (much like he eventually did for Blue Velvet), and studios have balked at paying for that.
Here's hoping that it really works out this time.

I'm cautiously optimistic that we finally get that footage, but like the other Josh said, we've heard it all before.

Shouldn't be too surprising; seems that the studios are more willing to let their films appear in other studios' sets. WHV allowed True Romance to be included in the Tarantino XX boxed set that Lions Gate released last year.

I have re-watched the entire series every year in October since the VHS days and sadly another year of not watching it on BD. I think I will buy the HDX version from Vudu because I know as soon as I do they will announce the blu-ray set.

I'm happy with my Gold Box DVD of the series but I would like to pick up FWWM on Blu when it's available separately.

Also, it has no English subtitles during the Pink Room scene.

Re: Twin Peaks - Series & Fire Walk With Me
As much as I enjoyed the show, I was a little burned out on it by the end and never bothered with FWWM. I guess I should give it a try some time.

Sorry people of colour, blondes, fellas, the non-attractive (whatever that means), ladies with smaller bosoms, those under 18 or over 27, or anybody with an… um… modern face but David Lynch is looking for a waitress and he’s got a very specific type in mind.
Production is set to take place next Tuesday on a new Twin Peaks promo, directed by Lynch. Here’s the casting call I intercepted:
Hot Caucasian Girl – Brunette or Redheads Only. To play waitress, 18-27. Must have an amazing body, busty, very period looking face.
If you want to submit they want a full body shot as well as a head shot, of course.
Though it’s yet to be confirmed, I’ve heard that the Blu-ray release of Twin Peaks will include the entire series, the prequel movie, a great deal of deleted scenes material – up to 45 minutes have been mentioned, but it’s in the hands of both lawyers and remastering boffins – and it will all hit the street in late March.
Incidentally, if the set lands on March 25th in the US, as I’m expecting, that’s exactly 25 years after Dale Cooper met Laura Palmer in the Black Lodge.
Stay tuned for a lot more. Twin Peaks is just… it’s just… wow. So I’ll be all over news of this release, and the waitress promo while I’m at ait.

I wonder what the 45 minutes of deleted scenes in the bleedingcool article are... from the tv series of FWWM?

I wish Lynch would just assemble the original 4-hour cut of the film, but I understand why he won't. Just give me the deleted footage and I'll be happy.

Is the footage still around to Lynch to do that? FWWM was a midnight movie in a local college town, though I think they were just projecting the DVD. Still, probably would've been a trip.

Re: Twin Peaks - Series & Fire Walk With Me
Yes. The footage has always been available and it's come oh so close to being released many times. The problem has always been that Lynch does not want it released without a proper transfer and color timing. That costs more money than the studios releasing the various discs around the world have been willing to spend. I think there were also some rights complications, but the cost was the big roadblock.

Re: Twin Peaks - Series & Fire Walk With Me
That's always been the sticking point. Lynch didn't want them out there unscored and not color-timed, etc... no one knows if that's changed or if someone finally ponied up the dough for it to be done properly. The Blue Velvet extra scenes were wonderful, so I'm really hoping the FWWM scenes are finally released.

Re: Twin Peaks - Series & Fire Walk With Me
oh and Mark Frost called this casting call a "strange baseless rumor" on twitter, so I don't think it's legit.
