“Now I didn't think Dune was completely awful, but it is rather disappointing. That said, it is a somewhat interesting failure, not in how bad or good it is but what it could have been. Starting with the good things, the production values are superb and actually elevate the film. The costume and set design are spot on, while the special effects are stunning. While Max Von Sydow and Patrick Stewart are quite weird in their roles, they are weird in a good way as they are very enjoyable here. And Francesca Annis is gorgeous.
However, everything else doesn't work. First off, I didn't think David Lynch was the right director for this. Don't get me wrong, I do like Lynch and his films especially The Elephant Man and Mulholland Drive. But when I think of Lynch, I think of haunting and su” read more

"Arrakis Arrakis, also known as "Dune", and later "Rakis" after the fall of God Emperor Leto Atreides II, is a harsh desert planet located on the far edge of the Old Imperium in the Canopus star system. It later became the Imperium's center under Muad'Dib's empire. It was the original and for a long time sole source of the Spice Melange, which was vital for space travel. Why you wouldn’t want to visit: It’s hot, humid, dry, and at the brink of war for control of Spice. And also sand w"

"Viewing: 2nd (or 3rd) Format: Blu-ray Thoughts: After seeing Dune 2021, I naturally had to revisit the 84 version which stands as a somewhat polarizing, controversial piece that was disowned by David Lynch. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this version as much as I did, and prior to revisiting it I felt it was the inferior version of the two. But dammit I stand corrected, this version is awesome and stands alone in its unique wackyness. It's deeply rooted in 80s fantasy/sci-fi, and made me think of i"

" First Viewing Viewing Date: September 18th Via: 4K Blu-ray Plot: A Duke's son leads desert warriors against the galactic emperor and his father's evil nemesis to free their desert world from the emperor's rule. Rating: 6.9/10"

" Directed by: David Lynch Produced by: Raffaella De Laurentiis and Dino De Laurentiis Written by: David Lynch Based on the novel by: Frank Herbert Cinematography: Freddie Francis Edited by: Antony Gibbs Music by: Toto and Brian Eno Distributed by: Universal Pictures"

"FORMAT: 70mm PRINT QUALITY: ★★★★ NOTES: Comes complete with David Lynch’s unaltered credit. Aside from some vertical lines that turn up in random places, most often in the middle but sometimes to the left, just one cut frame and the whole credit sequence being shifted slightly out of place, this is a visually impressive print given its age.

"January 1st Directed by: David Lynch Before I begin I must admit I accidentally got the extended version of the film. 40 minutes of extra footage and probably a completely different cut on top of that, so basically I kind of didn't even watch the real Dune. I really wish I watched the original cut cause damn this thing drags. The pros of this experience are all the absolutely ridiculous lines of dialogue, over the top characters (not all of them, just a few.) and other absurdities, like the ma"

"Not a great choice to watch after christmas dinner and some drinks. The pacing from the beginning to about middle of the film was just too slow in that "condition". The Then it got more interesting and that guitar theme was stuck in my head for some time."
