It's annoying being a fan of David Lynch and being in the terrible position of living in the U.K.
You see, I feel as if all the good stuff is being held back from me. It seems as if we here in the U.K will never get Twin Peaks season 02 or the definitive gold box on DVD. Getting hold of Eraserhead is a nightmare.
Getting hold of Twin Peaks fire walk with me and the straight story is equally nightmareish if you don't want to pay silly money for them. Sure, you can order them from the US, but that's not the point. You would think someone of Lynch's Calibre would make his work more available. Inland Empire!!!! Look at the features on the US Version in comparison the the vanilla-ish UK edition. Another case it seems of ignoring the fans in the U.K.
Did you also know about David Lynch's coffee?!?!? Well, it's only £9 ish for a bag, and all the money goes to his film institute. Problem is, if you live outside the U.S., the cheapest postal option from the postal service that David Lynch's website use, charges a paltry £50 for delivery!!!!
Why don't he make more of his film works available on his site and change the postal service he uses? Ultimately everyone would be happy, Lynch would make more sales, the film institute would make more money for it's foundation, and fans worldwide will be able to get hold of the films that have made David Lynch such a unique figure.
