Until a Dune project gets a "Lord of the Rings" budget, the film version will never compare to it's literary counterpart.Chris Gaubatzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05572622425855864371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9469928.post-44160699719115378152007-05-19T10:13:00.000-07:002007-05-19T10:13:00.000-07:00I shouldn't like Dune the way I do, but I do.And I...I shouldn't like Dune the way I do, but I do.<BR/><BR/>And I've seen Fire Walk With Me about half a dozen times.

The only real draw was that it's a Lynch film, but based on what you say Evan, I don't know if the 3 hours is worth trudging through.Joe Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10160822944514723178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9469928.post-89412893349981707782007-05-14T16:37:00.000-07:002007-05-14T16:37:00.000-07:00The extended version of DUNE was actually put toge...The extended version of DUNE was actually put together without Lynch's supervision or consent (it's officially an Alan Smithee film.) There's a lot of extra footage, which is nice, but the editing is much sloppier, the music got horribly jumbled, and some footage of a spaceship landing is recycled over and over again because someone thought it hugely important to show whenever somebody came to or left any given planet. It has a very awkward feel to it.Evan Watershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17263250766060234515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9469928.post-80900821358425783942007-05-13T16:21:00.000-07:002007-05-13T16:21:00.000-07:00Thanks for the advice, Adam.

If you're having trouble getting it on Netflix, they do show it sometimes on Fox Movie Channel and you can buy it for $10 at BestBuy.Adam Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968051066147134504noreply@blogger.com
