TWIN PEAKS: FROM Z TO A

北米版のレビューです。 基本的にS1とS2および映画はすべて完全なる謎と同一のものと思われます（つまり日本語音声・字幕付きです）。 しかしながらS3のリミテッドシリーズは残念ながら音声・字幕共に英語のみです。 またパッケージはしっかりした作りとは言えず、特にディスクの収納ケースの仕上がりにムラがあります。 とはいえコンテンツは相変わらず素晴らしいので基本的に満足しております。 英語でも構わない方は、2月に発売される日本版よりも随分と安いのでおすすめです。

I ordered this from the UK, for delivery in the US, because of better pricing (at the time that I ordered it). (Both the US and UK version are region-free.) I was slightly worried about the international shipping, especially with so many reports of mangled packaging, resulting in internal damaging, but I figured I could return it if that was a problem. (And those problems were being reported on “in country” shipments!) The terse assessment, of what I received, is that it contained a well packaged/protected interior box, with all the piece-parts depicted in the product pictures, totally undamaged. I don’t doubt the reports, by others, of damaged contents, but I had none of that with my shipment. When I removed the media from their original slipcases, I found all of the discs to be pristine, with no indication of any damage. I’ve kept the original packaging (with its extra knick-knacks), but it’s impractical to keep the media in their original cardboard slipcases. (It’s more likely that doing so will increase the likelihood of eventually scratching one of the discs, and it would be a royal pain to continuously remove them from, and restore them to, their original cardboard slipcases.) I highly recommend grabbing three of the Viva Elite Blu-Ray cases (e.g. the ones that hold 7 discs), and migrating all 21 discs into those cases. They will then be far easier to store with your other media, and will be well protected (and, obviously, far easier to pop-out and play). As to the media content, I think that the blu-rays look great. The single 4K disc is “OK”, but not quite what I expected. It is simply a 4K rendering of the two episodes indicted, but includes no HDR grading, so the color gamut is no different from that available in the standard 2K media. However, the 4K presentation does appear to have had its color grading modified, e.g. I found the pilot episode to be less bright, and the colors (as seen in the 2K version) to have been toned down a bit (i.e. less vibrant). Essentially, modified to give the episode a “darker feel”, which I assumed to have been the intent, considering that the subject matter is, itself, quite dark. I don’t mean to imply that this was advertised to be an HDR rendering, but I also hadn’t really noticed anything pointing out that it wasn’t. I’m OK with the result, but this is just an FYI for anyone who might be assuming that it is an HDR presentation. It is worth noting that the expense (obviously) relates directly to the 21-disc size of this package. But it’s also worth noting that they could have released this with far fewer disks (and at a lower price-point), by using far more compression (resulting in a lesser quality viewing experience). In even a mostly static scene, from the final (16x9, full-screen) season, the bitrate stays close to 40Mbps. Of course, the first two seasons were 4:3 (NTSC) formatted, so they are displayed here, with black sidebars. Because there is a lot of dead (black) space, the bitrates are lower than seen with the full-screen content, but everything would seem to indicate that those first two seasons were given the same level of (lower) compression as was given to the final season. I simply wanted to make the point that someone made a conscious choice to choose picture quality, over disk quantity (and a lower price), and I am certainly glad that “quality” won out, and hopefully you will agree. I had not procured any of the prior releases, so this was not a repeat-buy for me. So, bottom line, I’m excited about all the additional content included with this specific release, pleased with the picture quality, as noted above, and am pleased that everything arrived “as advertised”. I definitely recommend this package, and hope that others have the same (problem free) experience as I did. AlSO! For anyone viewing the series for the first time, be sure to SKIP the Special Features on Season 2, Disc Seven, until you finish Disk Eight (i.e. all of Season 2). There are numerous interviews in the Special Features (on Disk 7), which reference content in the final Season 2 episodes, and some of those interviews contain spoilers for those final episodes. (Obviously, the placement of those Special Features was not well thought-out.)

Cofanetto contenente TUTTO di twin peaks, prezzo abbastanza alto, però è comunque un oggetto limitato. La fattura è buona, anche se i portadischi si sono leggermente rovinati, non li avrei fatti di cartoncino.

if you’re from australia, this works on blu ray players

Superschnelle Lieferung. Top Qualität

Edición de Alemania. Aunque no lo indica en la descripción de Amazon, SI contiene audio y subtítulos en castellano. Perfecto si quieres ahorrar dado que en España está más cara. Yo la conseguí por 68€ cuando ha salido de oferta. Me llegó en perfectas condiciones y en dos días (dado que venía de Alemania). Edición preciosa y a la vez sencilla. La habitación roja mítica de la serie. Dan ganas de dejar expuesta la caja abierta. Contiene una figura troquelada que está imantada, con lo cual no se cae al cerrar la caja. Además 25 postales de la serie. 20 discos de bluray con la primera, segunda temporada, la película Fuego camina conmigo y la tercera temporada. Y muchísimos extras. De hecho esta edición es más completa que la serie por temporadas individuales dado que tiene dos discos más de extras para la tercera temporada. Además contiene 1 disco en 4K (no es HDR, es SDR) con el piloto original y el episodio 8 de la tercera temporada.
