Lynch hated it and had his name removed from it (as was pointed out to me recently). The monicker Alan Smithee now resides on it as director :D

Its Alan Smithee over here on the extended version but the original on still has Lynch's name on it as director. Might give this flick a day in court this week.

Lynch has made some very good films to be sure and I still count Dune among them....despite it's director disowning it.It's a tuff story(book)to adapt any way you slice it and I for one think he did a fine job of it.


And the effects still pretty much hold up after all these years.

good movie :cool: :D

I can't like Dune because my dad's had a boner for it for years.

...and I can't enjoy anything that gives my dad a boner.

Things have never been the same since you found his stash of transvestite have they? :( Poor wee fella.

Assuming you meant "transvestite porn" I'll say no. I did find his stash of bondage porn though... It's creepy knowing your dad likes his women tied up and gagged.

Toooooo much info.

DUNE!
 

Iam a Dune addict. I love the movie both versions of it infact. I thought that the Lynch version was interesting & had a really weird unearthly feel to it. I've read his script too & the movie seems a bit incomplete but I can see where he wanted to go & why he couldn't get there. Something about the movie always seems to draw me into it.

Re: DUNE!
 

well, it has an outstanding cast, some crazy images and performances .. rich lush sets, nice FX and miniatures, great toto/eno/lanois score.. and an interesting story.


whats not to like ?

Yeh I did mean porn, bit to eager in my posting there. Bondage porn would be a strange thing to find. But count you lucky stars you didn't find anything homemade :)
