Fun article about Lynch’s Dune Premiere (www.wired.com)

I would love to see the “lost” footage mentioned in this article. Would make a great expanded mini series for some streamer. I know after this flopped that a four hour version ended up in syndicated TV, but this article mentions there’s like seven hours of cut scenes!

Aw. This is the "Dune" I liked. The new one wasn't nearly cheesey enough and filled with whisper talking and took forever to get anywhere.

I wonder what is the tone of the movie?

I think they were trying to go the Bladerunner route with this reboot. Y'know, feast for the eyes as well.

What, the Lynch Dune wasn't a feast for the eyes??

[–] mihnt@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

No, no, not saying it wasn't. I'm just saying they leaned on what they did with Bladerunner 2049. Not that it's a bad thing because I personally enjoy the new movies.

I did grow up with memories of the Lynch films though and every time I saw Kyle MacLachlan in anything it immediately would remind me of Dune. I only learned Alicia Witt was in it a couple of years ago which kind of blew my mind.
