Really interesting stuff here. I enjoyed your video. Keep up the good work.

Looks like the authors are serious fans. But I don't see a lot of new material here. The completist in me wants to buy it, the researcher thinks I should save my money. It's a good-looking book, though.

Just saw this at the local comic shop. Not sure there’s anything new in here, but it took me by surprise. Anyone know anything about it?

Umm. Seems coincidental to me. Had they cut to a shot *inside* the car, then I'd buy it.

That a great! We only had a few of those. A very rare signature!

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

This is one of the best pieces of Twin Peaks art I've ever seen. (And I've seen *a lot*.)

Doing some research for a new project and stumbled across this comment from Catherine Coulson. Made me feel good about that long-ago magazine.... "You guys are doing a huge service with Wrapped In Plastic. You’ve done a great job and kept the quality up. I love getting the magazine!"

I can tell you with some certainty that is not the costume designer. My source says it was different actors, but Coffey has confirmed they did reshoots. Some mysteries remain.

000

Just checked the transcript of my (very reliable) source. He claims it was all different actors in the re-shoot. We'll never know for sure what really happened (maybe a few original scenes did make it into the film?) but a major re-shoot did take place.

No need to be sheepish. I don't think many people knew this. I certainly didn't until a few days ago. (I thought Rabbits was repurposed, too.) I don't know why Lynch reshot it, only that he did. It may have had something to do the cameras he used in the two different projects?

Quite possible. Same with Coffey. Watts was almost certainly not there. Either way, they reshot the scenes.

100

I know one of the players was a close associate of Lynch's (can't reveal the name right now, as I'm working on a new book). It's *possible* Coffey and Harring reprised their roles, but the credits likely reflect the use of their voices.

Inland Empire David Lynch

A bit of trivia: Did you know that Rabbits, a short film originally made for David Lynch's website, was entirely re-shot for Inland Empire?

Was watching clips the other day and just laughing out loud. David Lander and Miguel Ferrer were genius in this! Everybody was!

Great story about an obscure #TwinPeaks prop. I'm amazed at what my fellow fans have documented here. (And happy to have participated in bringing this prop to light.) twinpeaksblog.com/2026/07/31/t...

Yes, it's great. But not every shot in there is by Lynch. Inspired by him, no doubt (Tim Hunter, Caleb Deschanel). But, yes, it's very cool.

Andreas Halskov conducted a good interview with her for our upcoming Lynch book.

I sent you a DM with email addresses. Maybe you can still get a copy.

Did they not contact you about ordering physical copies? Contributors were all sent copies.

Great to have the physical copy in hand.

From what I've learned recently, Lynch wanted it to be dark and heavy. It was not an easy film for the actors (or the crew), especially because Lynch had Rammstein playing while he filmed.

240

Yeah, I think Nolan admires Lynch a great deal. And he's right, Lost Highway is a tough film. I remember the audience reaction when I first saw the film: People were mighty frustrated!

220

One version of Cooper never made it home. That's the tragedy. (Arguably, the Cooper who accepted who he was did make it home.)

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

Too bad this story is getting such a negative spin (but that's what gets you clicks). The *real* story is that Nolan selected Lost Highway and was ultimately complimentary to the film and to Lynch. A difficult fim doesn't mean a bad film.

2274

Lynch had done box sets in the past (Lime Green), so maybe this will be some independent, small-studio thing. I hope its not a rushed job. I do believe he appreciated the Criterion treatment and would have welcomed a Criterion release (a la Kubrick). I bet Criterion *would* have done one eventually.

Frost has explicitly said he was thinking of The Odyssey when making The Return. (And, of course, Cooper travels to Odessa, TX, which certainly emphasizes the connection.)

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

No doubt. And they have a lack of shame, so even if they see their collateral damage, they don’t care. Still, and I know this sounds awful, I want them to suffer. A quick death robs me of that satisfaction.

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

I did not know that! Thanks for letting me know.

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

I, for one, hope certain politicians live long lives, so that they face legal consequences or personal losses/discomforts (or some dim realization that history will paint them as villians) for the suffering they've inflicted upon others. I long for karmic payback.

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 10/07/2026

Yes, definitley written by Lynch, as confirmed in "Lynch on Lynch: Revised Edition," p. 289.

040

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 10/07/2026

All good clues, especially 2,3,6,8. Clue 10 seems the most confusing (although if you reinterpret Lynch's clue to "What happened to Aunt Ruth?" then it makes more sense).

010

John Thorne @thornewip.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Because I'm lazy and choose not to pull my Blu-Ray edition off the shelf, is there anything new to this release? (I'd love to see that TNT interview Lynch did for a broadcast way back when.)
