Crockett understood that the republicans wanted disarray on the democratic side (and likely engineered as much chaos as they could), and she’s denying them that. She knows how to beat them, even if she’s not the nominee. A class act, indeed.

You are very kind! Thanks! That was lots of fun, and I look forward to doing it again next year!

Excellent! That was issue 7--our first photo cover!

Thanks for the nice words. They are dearly appreciated. It's hard for me to see WIP from the other side. We were so busy making it (six weeks on, two weeks off--every two months for over a decade), that I never really saw it from a fan's perspective. (I mostly saw the flaws and the struggles! 😳)

Thanks Brent! And congrats on your new book. Glad to have it in my library!

It's days like today that I'm happy I'm a Canadian citizen.

It makes me so happy that Wrapped In Plastic still resonates with #TwinPeaks fans. I'm sure Craig Miller would be pleased that collectors are seeking out issues. WIP is but the tiniest footnote in Twin Peaks history, but perhaps we made a lasting mark. Making the magazine was always a labor of love.

What a great time this was! Looking forward to next year!

A beautiful day in the real Twin Peaks today (North Bend, WA).

Totally agree. The whole thing should have been planned out from the start. Rey finds Luke's long-lost lightsaber in The Force Awakens, but we never learn how it came to be where it was. Maybe it doesn't matter, but the film hinted at a larger backstory. I hoped to see that, but it never happened.

I didn't leave the theatre mad, but confused and disappointed. The anger came later. RoS is, indeed, a terrible movie. How did Disney manage to so massively screw this franchise up? There's much fear in the making of this movie. Knee-jerk reactions to the manufactured outrage over The Last Jedi.

Thanks. I really had no idea this feature was going to be on there. I did the interview years ago, and I thought my comments would simply be part of a documentary. Instead, they have me providing a short audio commentary/analysis of the movie!

It’s an honor to be the narrator of β€œStraight and Narrow: Inside the Film,” a special feature on the new Studio Canal+ 4K release of David Lynch’s β€œThe Straight Story.”
This is a beautiful release of the film. Highly recommended.

Those look great! Some of my favorite issues in there, (including #56, the hardest to find issue). Oh, and that Eraserhead cover was designed by David Lynch, himself!

Nice. I'll be buying this issue when it makes its way to the U.S.
