Gaaf, gaaf, gaaf, gaaf, gaaf!!! Eindelijk! Joepie! *blij blij*

Twin Peaks RULES! Nu de film Fire Walk With Me nog.

Vergeet niet de pilot uit R3 te halen. Deze zit nl. niet bij de serie.

FWWM kan nog wel even duren. De rechten voor de deleted scenes zijn nog steeds niet verkregen

Maar eind december / begin januari zijn er ook bij mij thuis weer een weekend lang kersenvlaai en donuts in huis

[FrankL]

Die boxset van mij is alweer even onderweg. Ondertussen werd ik blij van een laaiende recensie:

En van het goede nieuws:

Fortunately, Artisan has already committed to the release of the second season on DVD in late March.

Nu de film Fire Walk With Me nog.

Vandaag vond ik de boxset in de bus  

Even snel een stukje gekeken. Het kostte veel wilskracht om na een half uurtje weer op 'stop' te drukken  
De boxset heeft een heel goede beeldkwaliteit! Zo mooi heb ik Twin Peaks nog nooit gezien.

Nu gauw een Twin Peaks marathon inplannen....

[J.A.F._Doorhof]

Die moeite me stop kan ik me indenken  , wij hadden gisteren dat probleem met Buffy, even één aflevering kijken......... Dat werdt dus de gehele DVD  

MvrGr.

Ik zou de Twin Peaks box allang binnen moeten hebben... Een vriendin van mij zit er al vrolijk naar te kijken...    Maarja, zal wel een dezer dagen komen hoop ik dan maar...

[FrankL]

Garmt, hij is nu toch ondertussen wel binnen?
Mooi he? En weer erg leuk om te zien!


Aanvulling:
Oops, ik was vergeten dat je al een review geschreven had.
Nou ja, het kan geen kwaad mijn favoriete serie nog eens onder de aandacht te brengen

Zo is dat Frank!
