I still love the David Lynch version of Dune.

I don't think the script was that silly, he took a very detailed book and made it into a 2 hour movie while still trying to let the viewer know what was going on...I think it would have been impossible otherwise. Every action by the characters in dune was due to some personal and political force that extended back generations in some cases and there was no way he could have conveyed that in the time he had with 2 way dialog. I think it would have been all over the place if he had tried that.
