Sober Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 So I went and bought the Dune mini, Director's Cut. Movie looks intact (watched it, pretty good IMO) and the special features seem to be there. What I found weird was the case's opening cover had a flap for something that should be there, but there isn't anything. Second, DVD 3 is different from the other 2. It specifically says "Special Edition" and "Disc III - The Prophet" with a different CD cover design on it, while the other two look like generic DVDs.Well, everything's there, and all intact when I bought it, maybe I'm just being super anal about it.Now if I could only find the Children of Dune mini, I can't find anywhere around my area that has a copy.

Mahdi Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 The flap is supposed to contain a small booklet and there are supposed to be designs on all three of the DVD's.Did it include the scene of Paul and Lei in the weirding room? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftingcloud Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Yeah, Disc One is blue with Paul in a stillsuit. Disk two is reddish with the Baron and says "Disc II Maud'Dib". And as Madhi said, a tri-fold booklet with the scene breakdown goes in the flap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sober Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 The flap is supposed to contain a small booklet and there are supposed to be designs on all three of the DVD's.No booklet, and first 2 aren't marked SE, design is just Paul and Chani's backs and the dune sea. Only disc 3 is marked SE, has Paul and Leto. Strange.Did it include the scene of Paul and Lei in the weirding room?If that was in Disc 1 or 2, don't remember seeing it.And I bought it from BestBuy too, how did I somehow land the strange copy? :-Might try to return it for the same copy, but I'm not sure if this qualifies as non-defective... and not to mention the BestBuy has only this 1 copy (that I have) and is within anywhere reasonably close to where I live.

Sober Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 Yeah, got that, it's scene 17 on disc one, starts with the sandworm hologram, and the dew collector discussion in the botanical room.So I should be ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunner154 Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Um, so the disc itself broke? Both at the same parts? Manufacturing defects :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 No, Mahdi and I discs are fine. Just the booklet that holds the disc has fallen off the outside booklet/jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftingcloud Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 No, Mahdi and I discs are fine.

Pawe Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 This is a bit off-topicish, but what is the duration of your special edition? Is it (approx.) 4h 48min or is it a wee bit longer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Says 295 minutes of feature running time on the back of mine. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawe Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Thanks. That clears out some confusion. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
