    It's strange hearing Lynch speaking positively about Dune.

      He didn't become disillusioned with it until he lost control in the editing room. Until then he was all in.

      @ I was googling things yesterday, and discovered that in 2022 David was interested in doing a director's cut that could have been 4 hours long. I guess nothing ever came of it, though.

    I'm not that disappointed we never got a sequel since David Lynch would go on to direct Blue Velvet. Still, it's a shame that we never got to see his vision. There were discussions of a director's cut back in the day. It all must have been too painful.

    Lynch's Dune 1984 is WAY more entertaining than the Denis' Dune films

      Eh. It's alright for what it is. They really bear no resemblance to one another. I enjoy certain things about each one that the other lacks. I think 2021 is an overall better presentation of the story and characters, but 1984 has the amazing Toto soundtrack. Both are great.

      Depends on what part of one's brain needs entertainment.
      I'm definitely not enjoying the hype around Denis' Dunes.

    Tragic that Lynch wasn't allowed to present his vision for this or the follow-ons that he had planned.
    But would we still have gotten Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive, or Twin Peaks?

    Star Wars was way more influenced by Flash Gordon and the Lensman series of books than Dune.
