I saw 2 versions of the movie for rent in my video store. I saw the one starring Sting many years ago, but i never saw the more recent one. Is it any good? I looked and looked on the main index this site under the Duniverse section for information on the movies, but couldnt find anything.

I heard that there was a Directors cut of the movie starring STing that was like 3 1/2 hours long, I would love to see that if it exists. ANyone know anything about it?

yeah look on ebay. make sure the guy you buy it from is credible though. I got the extended version. "Dune Uncut" by Alen Smithee

you know that movies under the name of Alen Smithee are film of Lynch? That's just a nick name of film that he doesn't like, or just didn't approved everything ;)

Someone posted that on these forums a few months ago, but they were confused between Fox and the Sci-Fi channel, which is making another minseries based on Messiah and Children.

Thank Shai-Hulud. Dune just can't be condensed into a movie form and still be good.

there have been 2 movies:

dune by david lynch in 1984 with sting in it and the emperor game tries to capture the same feel

and a sci-fi channel mini-series in 2000

sci fi also is making a children of dune movie

1984 version got the Worst Movie of the Year award by Siskel and Ebert by the way.

I woulda liked it if the navigator wasn't a goldfish and they didn't have those lame guns.

I thought that it was really good. But if movie critics knew so much about movies, why don't they make movies themselves?
