All the scenes that appear in this video were scenes (and audio) that did not appear in the final film. I reconstructed some of the scenes to get a rough sense of the deleted scenes and I restored the footage and images to 4K. I hope you enjoy this effort.

this effort prompted a sub:)
@Bosingr Thank you very much!
@@blubblubwhat Thanks for subbing!
Thank you for the effort.
I don't care if it kills the pacing. I would watch a 6 hour cut of this film.
Pacing??? Pffft... amateurs! I want it ALL!
Bad pacing's what chapters and episode breaks were designed to fix.
@@jamessmith7205 um how did you get the atreides hawk typed out?!
@@connerandrews468 I joined the channel. We got spiceand a crysknife too
6 hour directors cut with intermission breaks. Sounds perfect.
Anyone else fully ready to watch a six hour version?
How about all 3 movies/series in order from the 1984 version to the Sci-fi miniseries to 2021's iteration?
@@RedMorg Just follow the original book series. Dune, Dune Messiah, Children if Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse Dune
@@markanthony1004 Good idea!💡
It's a shame that we probably arent getting one
yes i love to watch 6 hr may do 3 then do 3 or if hold my attention i can go for 6
100% would love to see an extended cut. The more Dune we have, the better.
Yes!!! The theatrical cut was total crap. With a movie like Dune, more is way way way better. (As long as they don’t make it rain at the end of part 2… Which would kill all the worms, as anyone that has read the books knows).
@@timtation5837 Nah they're doing a part 3 which is going to be based off dune messiah
@@timtation5837”total crap” come on man. What a subjective opinion
@@Gubble-oq6dn Opinions are inherently subjective. Though, I agree; this movie certainly wasn't that.
Showing Jessica train Paul is super important. It reinforces that he has Bene Gesserit training beyond the Voice
Could not agree more with this statement. I mean we are shown him ask for water.... I mean... can we get a little help here.
So much that was left out is pretty important to the next part of the movie ! The Thufir/Duncan/Jessica beef is a pretty big deal
Yea tbh it is ridiculous that you can watch the movie and think it's just the voice, and political plotting. There's so much more to it than that and the movie doesn't even both mentioning any of it than Stilgar saying "weirding way" one time, which never gets explained.
Not necessary.
The training we see is enough already.
What is missing is all the character definition and plot development that was ripped out of the story.
I would like to see the 'traitor' conflict between Hawat and Jessica, and the state of poor Duncan set to 'guard' her and getting drunk to cope with it.
I want to see the look on Hawat's face when he realises that not only is he utterly outclassed by Jessica, but that she could have destroyed them all at any time with ease.
(incidentally such a plot exploration would wipe out any need for bulls**t extraneous female empowerment crap in a saga already crammed with great female characters - Chani having completely unnecessary screen time and Kynes being gender swapped are 2 such examples of this unnecessary politicking by the studio, both token changes that add nothing to the story)
I want to see Kynes demonstrate competence dealing with the spice harvester carry all problem.
I want to see the banquet that has everybody on edge.
What I don't want to see is Paul moping and whining and bitching at all - it's not Paul Atreides at all.
Yeah they totally get rid of the incest subtext 😂
Short answer: YES. What bugs me is that we're not talking only about a draft scenario, they actually filmed these scenes and all of them create a much more complex story and more character development. I understand not being able to incorporate them for a theatre movie but they deserve to see the light of day. Just imagine how glorious it would look
They filmed them, but it would be labour intensive to add effects to them and have them match the incredible standards of the other scenes! I imagine we will get some form of an extended cut, but how long simply depends on what would be most profitable to WB
It might actually make it better than Dune 1984. I found the new Dune very pretty, but it must be confusing for anyone that has no idea what Dune is about.
@@putinscat1208 even without the extra footage, its still leagues better than the 84 movie. C'mon. Its not even close.
@@faded1to3black It's prettier, and Jason Mamoa was great, but not much else.
@@putinscat1208 thats uh.. Well, certainly an opinion.
Yes! I’d love a 4-6 hour DUNE ….!
I hope they are doing a double feature screening when Dune Part 2 comes out.
They'll probably release one closer to part 2. Help build the hype
@@iansargent196 I hope u are both right!!!!
Denis doesn't have any intention of releasing an extended edition
He did an interview last week or the week before saying he doesn't want to release an EE because he is happy with the theatrical version
I hope
There is absolutely a market for an extended cut, even a 6hour version. I know people that had never explored this universe before that would be delighted to get better, more complete feel and explanation for this world.
Agreed. I really hope they consider this especially after part two. I'm not waiting for them to release three films before they consider this.
All these scenes are some of the most important character building moments of the book. The Yueh scene with Jessica in the hall, was a very intense scene for Yueh, nearly revealing the subterfuge.
Of all the scenes mentioned in this Secrets of Dune playlist, it's the one that I feel should have made it into the final cut. Not just to develop Yueh's screen character more fully, but to make us feel the shock and sting of House Atreides' betrayal that much more deeply.
@@GKlatt-fz2gs couldn't agree more, the movies haven't had too much of the narration we read in the books. Denis' mastery of cinema should let the visual component of the medium compensate, it hasn't thus far but knowing Denis is a huge fan, I really hope he knows the importance of it in the second half. I really wanna see that DMT trip scene in 2023 VFX.
@firdaushbhadha2597 That would be AWESOME.
@@GKlatt-fz2gs Exactly. First time and much more rewatches I was more like "oh right this random doctor guy did it apparently, okay"
Especially for movies like these extended version bring the world so much more to life, same with LOTR.
Not watching extended feels so empty, despite still being good movies.
I too hope DUne 2 will have an extended version, as the desert teaching section felt kinda rushed and 'let's get this over with'.
Now l'll go watch these extra scenes for dinner, see how much they add (a lot probably)
I would absolutely watch/buy a 4-6 hour version of this film. The story is rich enough and the execution masterful enough to hold the attention of anyone who values intelligent and imaginative story telling.
10-hour supercut of both parts when it comes out.
thats the problem and you kind of say it without saying it. To add all these scenes and whatever special effects would be needed. If people actually bought or paid to see films instead of bootlegging this would be more common. I agree with you and I would gladly pay for a 4+ hour 4k blu ray directors cut. Just how many other people would do the same? idk
@@DuckysMediaShowcase Thats why they'd sell it along side the official cut for a premium
@@frags4679 more like for the same price or in a box set. I've literally never seen an extended edition unless carrying special artcase or steelbook cases and even then sometimes a premium isn't the case for a few extra scenes. If they do release this and for a premium it'll have a different release and most likely be boxed set of both films and will come in something like a steelbook or box case and have some artist do the art of the cover instead of the generic film poster case that would come with the original releases. You pay for all of that including the materials and artist and considering the factors whatever premium they'll charge would probably be worth the additional charge but they may just put the extended edition on Netflix and altogether forgo the physical release anyway. Which would be a shame regardless
@@frags4679 I've literally never seen an extended edition be premium priced for that reason alone is what I meant to type before typing unless in art styled boxed or steelbook cases or sets
An extended version of Dune would be outstanding. I agree that most people are already conditioned to watch long movies by binge-watching. I vote extended version
People are binging TV series galore... and you can easly pause a movie and watch further later on.
"I agree that most people are already conditioned to watch long movies by binge-watching"
Not the same thing at all.
I can watch an entire season of Stranger Things, but I get bored less than 3/4 the way through any of the LOTR extended cuts, they are just too long.
Same thing with the 1996 Hamlet which is 4 hours long - but that at least is fully justified by the sheer amount of material to cover, so I just pace myself and stop part way through to break and eat.
Binge watching doesn't mean that you literally watch the entire thing with no breaks as you would in a cinema.
Even cinemas let you go for a short break in between when they show multiple films at once.
I could watch another few of hours of Dune. I didn't want it to end.
I was a little bummed when the banquet scene wasn’t included in the Final Cut of the film, it was an interesting moment in the book. Hopefully it makes it into an extended edition cut.
Literally the scene that hooked me into the book. I was so disappointed we didn’t get it.
It really flushes out the political savvy of the Atreides and Kynes
Simply - yes. An extended cut would be the perfect lead in to the release of part 2 as it obviously isn't being done for the initial home release. Many of us had waited to see a real extended version of the Lynch film for decades only for it to never materialize. This is your chance WB. It's time to make the definitive version of this science fiction masterpiece.
If the deleted scenes are leaked onto the Internet, The fans will make the edited version for Warner Brothers! They had better wise up and do it before the Pirates get to it!
@@MCCrleone354 these pirates don’t play, it’s a different time we live in 😂 either way works, would be lovely to have an extended cut of any sorts
@@WhatsGucciify
Not sure what you mean by they don’t play and that it’s a different time
The theatrical cut is pretty indigestible and obviously lacks clarity on several important plot points. As it is, it does damage to the series.
Watch the final Sandiver ReDux edit it is much much closer to what you are seaking in the Lynch film - I think it is the best version. We'll have to see.
The pacing of the theatrical cut was -nearly- perfect, and it was a glorious experience every time I’ve seen it in theaters. But an extended cut is for the nerds, allowing us to better understand the characters and the story that Frank Herbert originally wrote. Getting to see that on our TVs and computer screens would be awesome.
@@BryanDunne Well Denny can suck it because more is fun
@@BryanDunne naw, he can do Dune part 2, but would I go over to his house to find the forbidden footage, hell yeah
I disagree. It felt rushed as hell to me. Mainly how it jumped to from plot point to plot point without giving the proper character or situational development so the depth of emotional impact wasn't what it should have been. My wife, who hadn't read the books or seen the first one, like it but was confused by number of things and didn't feel much for things she should have like the betrayal or the pain box scene.
You can't do a 4 hour theater movie but this really needed at least that much more content. Reality is this just should never have bene a movie, it needs to be something more like a 10 hour miniseries (even then it would have to cut out a lot).
@@curtisbme I totally agree with you! The pacing felt rushed, after having read the book many times many of the scenes seem to have been filmed but not used for time! The narrative feels lost.... I agree, this needed to be made as a series. The 1984 film was cut for television.... I think WB are missing an opportunity.
It was a fun ride but at the end of the movie I felt like I'd just seen the "previously on..." for Dune part 2. I was so ready for the story to begin!
100% is there a petition to HELP get an EXTENDED CUT! Yes please...
Dune is a story that deserves at least a 4-6 hour part one
The additions to “The Lord of the Rings” really made the movie complete. The scenes from the Halls of Healing and the romance of Eowin and Faramir was exactly as described in the book and how I imagined it. “DUNE” could only benefit in a similar vane.
So when they came out in theaters were they shorter than 3 hours each?
@@monojuice They were all three hours pretty much exactly except ROTK was 3 hours 20 minutes.
@@monojuice ROTK wasn't, but all up, the theatrical trilogy was over 2 hours shorter than the extended one.
I completely disagree. The extended scenes in LOTR did absolutely nothing except destroy the pacing and the great scene transitions by adding a bunch of pointless scenes that would at best be interesting to readers of the book (which I am one btw) the houses of the healing was a beautiful part of the book, but was totally unimportant in the film. It felt like a reference, that's it. I'd rather have good pacing.
Completely agree. I would argue fans of the books in almost every case want the longer, extended, pacing-be-damned version also released because in their minds the pacing comes from the books they are following. Fans of only the movies will love the theatrical. LoTR fans were in dismay about 2 towers b/c of the vast character deviations. Some of the restored content mitigated the gripes.
I like the fact that so many of these deleted scenes feature canon lines, as far as I can remember. I'd love a 6 hour version to be sure!
lol expand part one into 2 three hour parts!
whats canon to film adaptations? Why cant both works stand on their own?
Like The Shining then Doctor Sleep respectively
They should've made this into a show. First movie = first season = 8 hours.
This story deserves an extended version, one of the BEST sci-fi worlds ever created on film!
The story deserves a new mini series with modern TV budgets.
When TV series can bring in actors like Anthony Hopkins while delivering great CG and story you know that times have definitely changed since the 2000 Dune mini series.
I would LOVE to see an extended edition. The longer the better.
Unfortunately Denis doesn't want to release an extended edition
He said in an interview that he is happy with what he released in cinemas
and more immersive. Man, to think they spent all this money, time, and for what?! To cut it? To make it short? Heck, they really dont know a Sci Fi fan, or how far they could reach into our wallets! A 6 hour film would do it for me.. of course with intermission for the house to serve up the beverages, and popcorn.. even a short break for people to sneak out and get a meal?
@@knivez786 never say never
The scrapped intro with Duncan Idaho free falling into Arrakis’ surface would be an excellent opening for part 2, and it would be a great excuse to bring back the character in flashback form.
"Ship arriving to planet" scenes have been way over done; I'm glad it was removed. However, a dark figure falling to the surface would have been cool.
But that would have been going back in the plot.
Especially since much of the reaction to the film showed that they may as well have called it "Jason Momoa and friends."
I'm praying that part 2 will start with feyd-rautha in the gladiator fight thing with the slave from the atreides. amazing scene in the book
I would imagine it was discarded because Duncan isn't really the protagonist. Would have been fun to see, I don't really like the intro with Chani.
Can't get enough with this movie. Have watched around 10 times from beginning to the end. Tempo is amazing, just like we have on the documentaries. Each scene has a purpose and is a piece of a progressive storytelling. Cinematography, editing, sound engineering... You name it, it's good(by the standarts of today). This level of quality is very rare nowadays so I would die to see an extended version...
I hope they will consider releasing it, at least after part two is released.
@@secretsofdune it would be awesome since they could introduce the emperor or even Feyd Rautha and Fenring already in the first movie.
"You name it, it's good(by the standarts of today)"
That couldn't be a greater unintended caveat if you tried.
You just gave the game away completely.
By todays standards in which people rave over shallow MCU plot lines and thinly sketched, shallow characters it doesn't really take much to impress at the moment.
This version of Dune is far too long, the pace is glacial and the plot/character development is literally at MCU levels.
I absolutely want to see an extended cut of Dune! It massively upsets me to know so many scenes were deleted from the original movie. Dune will now go down in history as one of the great sci-fi movies of all time! And can not wait for Dune 2!
An extended cut is exactly what is needed. I'd pay good money for it. This was truly a work of love to capture the books, and it deserves to be seen in full.
I would totally go for an extended cut. I respect the director's wishes of not having a Director's Cut, but it would still be nice to have that bonus content. Thank you for sharing.
Those of us who read the books would welcome a longer version... Great job, here. Thank you!
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
I would welcome a better version.
It needn't be longer on principle.
It's already far too long at 2.5 hrs for how pitifully shallow it's plot and character development is.
Less flash, more story - this is supposed to be Dune, not the MC-frickin-U.
The banquet scene in the books is such an important scene. To leave it out is a crime.
We could have had an entire episode dedicated to it in a tv series. I think the format is the main problem.
i mean to understand the subtleties of manipulation and backstabbing going on amongst the houses and the seat of the empire with the motivations of the guild but I honestly believe the fact that stuff is left out for the fake mysticism plot was so the audience wouldnt see the similarities that A Song of Ice and Fire has to Dune and more pinpoint the similarities Star Wars has to the books so as to make the audience to connotate those movies instead of A Game of Thrones in space. Most of the people who saw this movie did not read either book series and likely has seen both star wars and GoT
Cause the entire myth the fremen believe was just planted by the Bene Gesserit (catholics) to the free people of Arrakis as a form of enslavementof the mind and subjegation
@@DuckysMediaShowcaseif you edit a movie for what the audience might or might not infer or be turned off by rather than just adapting the material as best you can for the medium you're adapting it to, then you likely made a bad movie. Or at least, not as good a movie as you should've made
There's the theatrical cut and then there (should be) an extended cut for people who really vibe and jive with the film. Villeneuve was so... precious about how audiences should wait to see "his" Dune in theaters, and I feel like fans of the book(s) are still waiting - even the ones who have seen the theatrical cut.
most directors have to sensor themselves in order to get their movies made. Especially, a story not know to many people. can you imagine if he had presented WB a 4 or 5 hour cut? the suits would freak out. Now that the movie has made money for them. they should milk it. lol, let us have a 6 hour cut of the movie.
The theatrical cut is Villeneuve's cut.
@@fingerling1231
Yes, but that will not stop fans from asking for an extended cut.
@@MCCrleone354 relevance to my comment?
@@fingerling1231 It is Villenueve's theatrical cut. I want the Villenueve 'mini-series' cut.
I’d buy the Blueray ONLY if it was an extended version. This movie, this story, this cast deserves it.
Will there be ANY future bluray releases for film? I get the feeling they will keep film locked on streaming paywalls forever since the pandemic.
But by not buying the blu ray now, you’re telling the studio there’s no demand for an extended cut
@@ryanpetersen3789 I see your point, Perhaps of it will win some Academy Award there will be more chances
I'm buying it no matter what...
6hrs for Dune part 1 Extended edition - yes please.
This explains why I kept thinking huge chunks of the storys pace and transition just seemed to jump , an uncut version if definetly needed. Great film.
I would cut off my fingers and add them to the gift box if we get a 4-6 hour cut of this film. Please Baron Harkonnen make this happen 🙏🏻
You psycho. I like it.
Bit extreme but why not? I'm in.
Read Messiah and Children of, for more cringeworthy fun
They should release the extended Cut, the banquet scene is excellent, I only reread it this morning strangely enough. I Love the two cinematic versions of Dune, have a Peaceful New Year everyone. ❤
Agreed. It'd really impress upon the audience just how different this story is..
Have you tried the miniseries yet?
@@jamessmith7205 no I've yet to see that, James's Macavoy plays Paul Atreides doesn't He? I do want to see 👀 it.
I understand why it’s cut the way it is for the theater, but WE NEED a special edition. Denis says he won’t do it, that the cut is final. I hope he comes around and extends it, like Jackson did with LOTR. it would make so much money.
Absolutely, we need an extended version. I was blessed as a kid to see the 80s version in long form as a mini series on TV. Had the long prolongs from the emperors daughter and everything. 2 hours every night for a week. I don't think I would've become a fan if I'd seen the short cut first
There's a 10 hour dune 1984 cut?
@@humbleopulence Yes, sort of. It's not 10 hours, but they stretched with commercials and the like for network tv.
Honestly, they could release a 4 hour version, and as long as the extra material is canonical, it'd be a hit. There's no pacing issue , it's not an avengers movie, taking its time will only do it good. Return of the king extended edition is 4 hours and people love it worldwide.
I'd pay the money and make the time to watch it.
I hope it will be released one day. Not only missing scenes which would bring more context of characters like Yueh, Hawat, Piter De Vries and general plot. I'd like to taste much longer these stunningly beautiful scenes like Atreides' spacecraft emerging from the sea, landscape shoots. They were like just a couple of seconds while they shall be like 30 secs almost static and majestic "still" pictures. Yes, it would be more like classic theatre in the cinema than cinema movie, but for good.
Absolutely. Lingering shots of the landscapes wouldn't be a bad thing.
Sorry to be that guy, but *Yueh *Piter *Atreides’
I want to see (and hear) Gurney's baliset!
@safetravels Thanks, corrected. I've never read original English text of Dune. EN is my 3rd language :)
@@nevbarnes1034 Hell yeah! I missed that very much. And I would have liked to see Jessica as a beautiful lady, the beloved concubine of a noble duke. Just for example. As I see, a few rather important things were lost because of time.
I was very disappointed that we didn't see more of Piter De Vries in the 2021 iteration of "Dune" . I was so impressed by Brad Dourif's performance in the 1984 version
WE WANT AN EXTENDED EDITION!!! WE ARE READY TO PAY FOR IT!!!!!
i heard it’s possible to die of heartbreak and i feel like that’s the way i’ll go if we don’t get all of these deleted scenes. i understand that denis made the film he wanted to make but the fans have waited too long for a good dune adaptation just to never see our favorite scenes, especially when they’ve been filmed!
At some point, if there is a financial benefit in future for an extanded cut and lot of people demand it, Legendary will hopfully greenlit it besides Villeneuve doesn’t want it. The people demand it. Period. Maybe it will be a DVD release or extended cut streaming release, i don’t care if it tkes 5 years, but they have to do it. If Villeneuve doesn’t want to do it, someone will.
@@mr.ripley3846 i agree but i’m a bit impatient to be honest and would like to see the cut scenes sooner rather than later.
We got a fantastic Dune adaptation. We really didn’t miss out on much by not having those moments in the film.
@@brotherjohnnyxXxX i agree that we got a fantastic adaptation but i did miss certain events personally. it made the absences even more glaring for me once the scenes he cut began to be revealed. i enjoyed what i got but i still want more now that i know it exists and there’s nothing wrong with that.
@@mr.ripley3846 it's gonna Happen Films of this quality like Lord of the rings trilogy and The Godfather all have released Extended Versions.

Once again you've made a wonderful work. We all hope to get an extended cut one day. Thank you for your work
Very kind of you my friend. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I'm sure the extended cut will be even a better movie. I understand why it was cut for theaters but now I hope they are working on the extended edition UHD Blu-ray while working on Dune Part 2.
I dont agree. I dont understand why they should cut half the book out "for theaters" since they already shot it. People have proven time and again to studios that they want to see an excellent movie, no matter if its 4 or 5 hours long. Many many films that were over 3,5 hours long were huge commercial successes. I am a huge Dune fan and i would not pay to go see this film a second time, nor would i pay to have a BlueRay of it. If it had all the mentioned scenes, i would probably watch it 4-5 times in theaters and i would gladly pay premium to get a cool collectors boxset BR. The people that would be discouraged to watch it if it was longer would never pay to watch it multiple times nor pay to buy a BR of it. So in the end the studio actualy lost money with this cut. I realy dont understand what kind of morones run these studios that have ZERO clue as to what their "customers" want from them.
@@lm7_gio it's irrelevant what their customers want. The studio will lose money on tickets for theatres if the movie is 3 hours plus as it will reduce the amount of showings. It's pretty simple logic
There was absolute NO valid reason to cut out the baliset and banquet scenes. The constant interjecting Loreal face shots of Zendaya were completely uneccesary and wasted critical time that could have been filled by legit important scenes. A lot of character development was hurt on wasteful scenes
@@billybob5337 agreed.
@@billybob5337 actually i liked the lorial zendaya scenes, theu where one of the few hints of prescience
Extend this classic for 6 to 10 hours and I would gladly watch it.
An extended cut would be a no-brainer, cause it's a modern classic already.
Some of these cut scenes are mindblowing and also what i felt was missing in the final film. The scene where Stilgar sees the portal in space is just an insane shot, and awakens something powerful deep within me. A scene that absolutely needed to be in the film in my opinion. Let's hope that for once in his life, Denis chooses to release an extended cut of one of his movies, it can be a deal with HBO for example, that only on HBO will you see the final extended director's cut, maybe HBO would be willing to pay quite a bit of money for that, who knows. I would not wait a second to watch that version of it was released, and i don't care if it's 4 hours, 5 hours or 6 hours. I want to see everything that went through Villeneuve's head. His entire grand vision, it's important.
Well, HBO could turn it into miniseries which would be perfect format for them. And it would actually bring us Dune with some of it's complicacy, compactness, character backgrounds and relations between them. But I understand why Villeneuve wouldn't agree to it, it would be much harder to stand firmly behind his speedruny cinema cut and consider it THE final cut. And it simply isn't it and anyone familiar with the books knows it, it's just that I would rather not know how much they have actually filmed and what I'm missing. It's kinda sad, because while I love his take on Dune, I hate the fact that single restrain, running time that is, turned it into really rushed and flat experience.
It's either that or some extremely dedicated fans would have to go the SpiceDiver route and make an entire fan edit of Villeneuve's Dune that includes all of the deleted scenes, similar to the 1984 Alternative edition.
I thought the movie was visually amazing and the soundtrack was almost as perfectly set to accompany an alien yet familiar universe. The sets and colors were minimalist and washed-out, which made for a powerful and oppressive backdrop. However, the incredibly rich universe of the book was also executed in a minimalist way with no mention of a very large number of the themes that inform the viewer of the depth and purpose of the storyline. A buddy commented that, while we enjoyed the movie, unfortunately anyone who had not read the book would have no idea of the motivations of the characters because so much was not mentioned. He said "they turned Dune into an action movie". I agree, the banquet scene, the Thufir/De Vries scene, the greenhouse scene, and so many others, if added back in would give a visually stunning movie an equally stunning soul. Let's hope Mr. Villeneuve allows an extended version so that the genius of the movie can be elevated to the genius of the book.
Excellent idea, kinda like the synder cut.
HBO would F it up like they do with almost everything else they get their hands on. I’d rather just have a massive director’s cut
I wish they include all of this as flashbacks in Part 2. I really love to see how Thufir and Piter fighting and drinking the juice. The Thufir's office scene would be great as well. Come on Denis, give us the extended version already!
I just highly doubt he will ever consider flashbacks for Dune: Part Two. We'll either get an extended cut or we will never see these scenes again which is a shame.
I LIVE FOR AN EXTENDED CUT OF THE ENTIRE DUNE STORY!
"HEY DENIS ... ... Remember the FIRST rule of business and entertainment ... ...
*GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT!"*
this video was done with so much effort and love. thanks for bringing all these gems to us!
I'm glad you noticed that. Thank you for your kind words and for watching!
I'd sit through a 12 hour Dune movie!
Waddya mean sit through?
ditto ... if it were faithful to the book and as many of the details as is practical ... i'd sit through it too ... with a portable catheter if needed
Its good, not that good
Many of these have me salivating. I fear the banquet scene may not be much of a scene, and that there is no garden scene with Jessica. But there is clear evidence of a number of very very good scenes being filmed. The scene between Yueh and Jessica, between Paul and Hawatt, and between the two mentats. Those sound exquisite.
Thanks for your awesome video man!
Would love longer version! thank you!
I absolutely need an extended directors cut in my life. I just re-read Dune and would love to see the extra scenes: it makes for a much richer story.
I’d GLADLY watch 6 hours of Dune if they released an extended cut!! 🤞
Once they have sold enough copies of 1 and 2 eventually they will.
Oh, you know it. There is probably triple to quadruple the amount of footage (when compared to the theatrical runtime) just waiting to be released in an “extended version”. #CashGrab
I would still kill for a 5 hour + version of Dune!
"Shut and take my money!!!" We need the 6 hour version!!!
How funny... we all went through this with the Lnych movie, forever dreaming about that 5 hour cut. I NEED IT!!!
I know right. We will probably never see an extended cut but it is fun to dream.
@@secretsofdune I think Denis has said that’s he’s against directors cuts, but maybe after the the 2nd and (hopefully) 3rd films the studio will convince him to release an extended version. I don’t see it happening before then. Thank you for putting this together though. We can a least enjoy these little glimpses in the meantime. Also enjoyed your Baron Harkonnen voice
The lynch film does have an extended cut but it was made by a fan and you can find it right here on RUclips it's the dune extended edition redux by spice diver and it is perfection or at least as perfect and close to what lynch probably wanted in the first place but was not allowed to make, it draws upon many sources for its footage and the recently posted one on RUclips up skills the quality of and evens it out visually without changing its content. I actually was never super fond of the lynch film and I saw it at the theater as it deviates from the book in some serious ways whereas this version does not with the exception of the weirding modules which unfortunately could not be removed simply because of the large amount of the film that they appear in. You haven't seen the lynch film and tell you've seen this
Lynch has also gone on record as being against "director's cuts", that's why he demands final cut on all of his movies since Dune. But you know what we see on the special edition blu-rays of some of his movies? Deleted scenes, catalogued, discussions, etc, and in the case of "Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me" the recent rerelease from Criterion has "The Missing Pieces", approx 90 minutes of deleted footage, alternate takes, all polished with full post-production, scoring, in chronological order with the main movie.... Just not in the main movie. Those scenes were known, teased, discussed, and hunted down for 25 years, and were everything one (TP fans) would have wanted to see. The original movie was already around 2hrs 20 min. These are scenes Lynch says he loved but regrettably had to be cut for time.... Now, fan edits will be fan edits, that's a different animal altogether. If deleted scenes exist and there's a desire for it, nothing is going to prevent it from happening, but i digress.... We may not get an official extended edition, perish the thought....but maybe we'll get to see a supplement full of extra footage, deleted, alternative, etc. I would hope it's everything we could hope for, we've all seen those movies on BR touted with deleted footage that amounts to one/handful of little minute long scenes and that's it.
I've seen that scene where Duncan falls from high in the sky with the use of his suspensor belt. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT IF IT WERE INCLUDED IN THE RELEASED FILM. I would LOVE to see an extended version of the movie. There is so much of the book missing. There are parts of the book that were omitted but would have clarified it for many people. An extended cut is vital!
How did u saw
It sounds like Duncan's entrance from on high would have been a great opening and then move on into Chani's intro. I would love to see it.
Agree 100! And who could pull it off better than Jason?
@@lXlElevatorlXl I saw a clip on the internet.
@@christinemusselman5499 ok saw that one that he posted himself, thought u was in preview were they tested the cut
I would watch more than a 6 hour cut. Extended cut yes
Yes extended cut ,what ever cut as described would be totally awesome. You explained so much yet I think you could have kept going a bit longer , but I feel you did a good job on making your video, so I thank you and look forward to seeing more of them .
Thanks Ramon. I did make a deep dive where i went into a lot more detail here: ruclips.net/video/J6TJCU7XDIA/видео.html
This movie will never be what it's meant to be without an extended edition.
totally agree... when i heard the run time initially i was annoyed and bored of the film industries limitations.
A 4-6 hour cut of DUNE would be utterly awesome!!
This is amazing, thank you for putting this together!
Thank you very much. Glad you liked it.
I'd love to see an extended version of Dune part one. Thank you for this video and the opportunity to see or even be informed of the missing footage.
My pleasure, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
I am still sad they cut the banquet scene. It literally set up the entire story. It let you know about the nuanced division among the houses. The history of spice production. The sharpness of House Atreides. Paul standing his ground and asking the controversial questions. It really would have set the mood for things.
If the movie was missing anything it was these exact type of scenes. Really breaks my heart we didn't get them and the reason was almost certainly budgetary.
@@taylorcourville9193 budgetary? The banquet scene wouldn't have cost much. It's just people sitting at a table in room mostly.
@@taylorcourville9193my guess is actually a time issue. This scene would take up 20 minutes of movie time to do it justice.
@@taylorcourville9193 Budgetary? They shot all of those scenes and already had the sets built for them, as they featured heavily in other scenes. Let's not make excuses for a rushed, haphazardly recut film, please
Yeah, it's the one scene I am gutted we didn't get in the first movie. It's one of my favorite scenes in the book, and absolutely vital to the story imo. I'm also sad at the near complete absence of Thufir and his rivalry with Jessica.
I feel that Denis is hedging his bets on an "extended edition" of Dune, perhaps waiting for Part II to release to create a final cut of the entire project, rather than Part I having its own extended version.
Isn't he against directors cuts? What's the fundamental difference between that and an extended edition? I doubt we ever see the footage. Unless the studio pushes the issue for the purpose of greed that is.
Great Post! Definitely YES for the extended cut 👍
Thank you!
Is there any word about an extended version? I need so badly a 4+ hour Dune movie. I feel like the days we live with binge watching, epic stories like Dune could ez be 4 hour movies, and people would love it.
now finishing your video, i herd you touch on my previous comment, so seems like we are on the same page.
Yeah, at the end of the day the film was cut for the box office, not necessarily to do justice to the story fully, that's the impression anyway.
We are now begging, BEGGING, on my knees, to see the "Manic Ranting Jason Momoa" 6+ hour scene. I would pay more than 100 euro to see that in the cinema. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.
That was another excellent part of the Novel, the Salusa Secundus scene's one of My favourite in the whole Movie 🎬 🎞 🎥 🎦 📽
I don't buy movies, unless they're exceptional to me. As someone that has sat through all three LOTR Extended Editions in a single day, I want a Dune Extended Edition. This can really go down as the Sci Fi LOTR.
Yes, a truly extended cut would be excellent and appreciated!
Man there is so much story material that DUNE should be a tv series not a couple movies. They could make so many seasons and this would be the best series ever made!
I completely agree. TV is the perfect format for Dune.
I think TV series tend to degrade the production value. Alas- I’m not sure there is a forum for broad attention spans yet- but I wish there was. I hope we get a directors cut sooner than later.
@rtz That may have been true once, but that really has changed. As it stands, there is enough material between the two films to already re-edit and restructure the films as an 8-10 hour miniseries. It would be a travesty not to release it that way at some point. It'd actually be a perfect lead in to Part III.
But WB isn't known for their business savvy and for reading the market very well of late, so I doubt they're thinking along these lines. If they were, they'd reissue Dune Part One before Part Two releases as a 3 hour director's cut. They didn't do it this time, they likely won't next time.
100% I would love an extended cut…I expect we’ll get one eventually as there is too much money to be made for the studio
I love the intricate, deliberate pace of the theatrical cut, and would welcome more scenes, depth, and story. Villeneuve has done it again. Epic.
Like Lord of the rings the Extended edition the extra scenes only serve to make it better, and do not detract in any way, even though all three movies then would probably run to 12 hours or more. Vileneuves skilled adaption of Dune not only brings a rather lets face it, esoteric and oddly dense book, to life but he manages to capture a lot of the philosophy and the implied drug references use of the spice insinuates.
I feel like an extended cut should come out after part 2. Would be great to see it all the cut scenes
Directors cut!
Sooner than later PLZ!
Absolutely watch as much as we can get. I have the 84 movie and both mini-series on DVD and have watched many times.
Watched Dune 3 times and I just cant get enough. I'd definitely watch a 5 hour version. Hope we get some kind of extended version on 4K.
Dude all of this is incredible there’s no reason for them not to include all of these scenes into one ultimate edition, it’s what the fans want and you can tell it’s what all the actors want.
I would consider a cinematographic epiphany a 6 hour DUNE cut!!!
Defiantly an extended cut would be very welcome have been a Dune fan since High School (1970-1974) where I first read the book.
Absolutely! I can't get enough of this movie! I prefer the extended cut of the Lord of the Rings series too
Me to Crystal 🔮, I adore the Film 🎥 and Book 📖 😍 ❤
I would treasure an extended cut. It would be a total immersion in the world of Dune. Great work reconstructing the scenes!
Thank you!
Pacing is important to the normal theater goer... We definitely NEED an extended cut with all the deleted scenes on a Blu-ray version !!! Please 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
Didn't realize that much of the film was cut for the theater
It would be fantastic! To see the extended version
I want to see an extended cut and all the bloopers and everything that was shot with this extraordinary cast and crew. Period.
Part 1 was the fastest 2.5 hours ever. Did not want it end!!
OMG YES! I would love to see an extended cut. 4-6 hours of Dune?! I'm in, no questions asked.
I’d love to see all the deleted scenes. They usually add a great deal to a film.
Thanks for the video!
The best use of the hours of extra footage and deleted scenes will be in the HBO series, Dune: The Sisterhood. When they get to Dune in the timeline, they can re-edit the theatrical releases of all (3!) films, giving a far more detailed story, which the audience will be ready for at that point. No (theatrical film) production ever has a 5-hour shooting script for a single film release. They seem to have shot everything up to and including Jessica's Water of Life scene, which would be the smart thing to do considering the two-year time jump right after that in the book, and the fact that Chalamet is going to start looking (at least an hour) older any day now. I firmly believe this has been the plan all along considering Villeneuve is set to direct the pilot for the series, and Brian Herbert & Kevin Anderson are both attached as producers for the series as well as the film franchise. HBO/WB needs something bigger and better than GoT at this point to keep them at the top of the streaming food chain, and there's no bigger IP than Dune
Thank you so much for posting this....even though it breaks my heart that these scenes were cut. Though I loved the film, I felt strongly that it needed more depth and background and detail. Villeneuve has denied that an extended cut will appear; but I pray he will change his mind one day.
You're very welcome. I'm happy to see that this effort has been well received and appreciated. I hope that these videos and my posts on social media can act as a proof of concept to the idea of an extended cut being viable one day.
That scene with the mentats, DeVries was right, in the book the attack was planet wide on every city, Thufir saw the size of the invasion and calculated the cost was about 50 years worth of profit the Harkonnens received from running Arrakis. The cost was so vast it almost bankrupted the Harkonnens who were one of the richest houses in the known universe. Thufir didn’t even cater an idea of an attack at this scale let alone prepare for one.
One thing they left out in the book is that, ironically at this time the Atredies had already sent out a team to attack & destroy the Barons spice reserves, that’s why he was adamant about maximizing spice production so quickly.
The sets, costumes, and effects were so beautiful, I would gladly watch an extended cut. Let’s hope one comes out eventually.
They stuff they cut with the mentats and Yueh is fucking criminal holy shit. Could easily have elevated it from a solid 8 to 11/10
are you on crack? It's already a 12/10. Open your eyes.
@@erdemoz2187 It could have spent it's time. it could've been better.
Agreed.
@@erdemoz2187 it's not. In it's current form it's an 8 at best. The story is far too rushed, characters such as piter de vries are utterly pointless in the current cut and totally superfluous to the plot. The baron has barely any dialogue. The yueh twist has zero impact as he only had about one other scene the entire movie. Mentats are neither mentioned of explained at any point in the movie. The atriedes look like dumbasses as they just arrive and two minutes later they're destroyed by the harkonnens, the movie excludes all chess moves leto tried to make to prepare for the harkkonens attacking them as they knew they were going into a trap.
If you're read the book then the theatrical cut of the movie is simply not good enough. 12/10 my ass it NEEDS these scenes adding back in.
@@supremeworld87 piter de vries is pointless character in books as well :DD He has like 4 lines and dies almost instantly
Yes to the Extended Cut.
Thank you, for this editorial.
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
You were right about the seech. Yes would love an extended edition of both movies. I cant get enough of dune.
Yeah the same type of lighting from the outside into the caves. I think the movie version turned out even better than the concept art in this particular case.
