I would love to see the “lost” footage mentioned in this article. Would make a great expanded mini series for some streamer. I know after this flopped that a four hour version ended up in syndicated TV, but this article mentions there’s like seven hours of cut scenes!
Well. I hate when directors come in to an already strong story and make a bunch of unnecessary changes for no reason. Watching the new Dune movie, I felt that it had been made by people who actually had an amount of respect for the source material, rather than as a vehicle for whatever “vision” they felt like shoehorning into it.
80s Dune was good and wild, it wasn’t Dune.
