Salvatorin Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I have to say that I really don't care about Dune's flaws. The set design, costumes, and music are enough for me to love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jackson Michaels Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 To this day Lynch refuses to discuss anything related to Dune. From what I've read it's the combination of the studio taking control of the editing, and to Lynch himself biting off more than he could chew. I love Lynch, but at the time I think the project was too big for him to handle. In my opinion the movie itself isn't awful, but compared to the book it's... not particularly good either.

I don't much care for the books. I mean, I like the ideas behind them and the events that happen in them and all that, but Herbert's writing style is just blurgh. Super dense and just dry as fuck. Much prefer the movie, flawed as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbert went to extreme lengths to "invent" a new universe, and not many have done it better than him (imo). But, I see where you're coming from, and it all comes down to taste basically.

Guest disparaissant Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 yeah different strokes for different folks. i much prefer the phil dick "DRUGS AND FEELINGS!" style sci-fi, personally. and vonnegut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwiddleBot Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I really wish Lynch would take a crack at the fantastical again, this time with more say/control. Slightly off topic has anybody here seen the 3 hour extended version? It's on my hit list.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest disparaissant Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Slightly off topic has anybody here seen the 3 hour extended version? It's on my hit list.. There's a reason it's called "The Alan Smithee Cut." I mean the Lynch cut leaves a lot of important info out, but the extended cut mostly just has SHITLOADS of voiceover stuff that explains in EXCRUCIATING detail the most obvious stuff from the plot. It's just... not good. It's like the version of Blade Runner that has the Deckard voiceover. It's just not necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamovich Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 The only thing I actually liked in extended cut was the Prologue. The film editing was completely different, very odd. I felt like im watching a very long dune trailer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shit Attack Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 check out sean youngs favourite videos she seems to be a conspiracy nut: "painting in the new world order", "magick + the matrix" etc. also pretty sure the extended cut of dune is on bit torrents (or is that too obvious) never watched it tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundwave Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I wonder what would have happened if Ridley Scott had directed Dune? He did get first refusal but the death of his bro and the mortality themes in Bladrunner appealed to him more. At the end of the day I don't think Lynch, although a good director, was right for the task which in itself was a huge undertaking to do right in a single film. 44 million and the spent most of it in the first third of the film which was a damn shame as this could really have been epic. The nasty bit with the Baron really disturbed me as a kid, put me off raspberry ice lollies forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
