      The real flaw is that even with the spicediver cut, the last hour of the film still feels rushed. It needed to be a 4 hour film unironically, if not a two parter. That isn't Lynch's fault at all, but it is a fault of the movie.

                Okay, you're right that they constrain scale in some way but I don't think a movie's quality suffers from that. I'd rather see a well-choreographed closeup of 20 men fighting the Battle of Agincourt rather than all 20,000 at once. For worm-riding in practical just do it close-up with wider shots of practical worms, exactly same principle as pilots and miniature vehicles

                Except they literally are.
                Bruce the mechanical shark barely worked so had to shoot POV most of the time.
                In the Thing sequel they ditched all the puopets they had made cos the director changed all the angles he wanted to shoot at rendering the puppets absolutely useless.
                A 3D model has no such limitations anon.
                Practical fx literally are constraining you fricking imbecile.
                Puppets need control/llers in them.
                Miniatures can look like utter garbage if not shot right.
                Makeup and prosthetics melt/detach if they get too hot etc etc.

                Example for you;
                The sandworm miniature puppets looked shot in real sand, so had to use ground glass powder that would have literally killed the puppeteers if they inhaled any by accident.
                How is risking your crew's lives for a shot of a puppet not a constraint?

                The Bruce puppet fundamentally changed how Jaws was shot and composed, and it's widely praised as an example of how it actually improved the movie. The Thing is also praised for the quality of its practical effects

                Bruce being nearly impossible to work with forced them to get clever with angles and use POV shots.

                The puplets in the original Thing were masterpieces, but they literally had to be shot how they had been storyboarded because puppets need operators.
                In the SEQUEL the director scrapped the storyboards amd changed all the angles which meant all the puppets the fx team had made couldn't be used because the new shots would be looking right at the puppeteers and all the mechanical arms and wires sticking out of them. THAT is the constraint, they are literally constraining to use. Ffs why am I wasting my time

    I watched DUNC 2 and for some reason I just kept wanting it to hurry up and be over. It's weird because I somehow kept expecting the surreal vision that Lynch had but it never happened. I dunno, when he drinks the magic worm pee the whole scene is so crazy. In Dunc 2... I honestly can't remember because I fell asleep (I was up for 24 hours) but if it was anything like the mom scene it wasn't that crazy. Also on Lynch Dune the whole messiah thing plays differently and the scene where he goes "my name is a weapon" is so good and especially "FATHER, THE SLEEPER HAS AWAKENED". Dunc version he's just pissed and I liked the first movie more.

        It's a book about a far-future feudal space empire where the nobility is addicted to a drug that make their eyes glow blue and they're surrounded by space-witches that use advanced mind-control techniques and autistic people whose brains work like supercomputers, and deformed mutants that live in tanks use the drug to see into the future to allow FTL travel, and also there's a planet where the super-drug comes from and it's full of gargantuan worms that react to rhythmic sounds and desert people that wear suits that capture and reprocess their sweat and urine and also they ride on top of the worms using with hooks.

        And this was written in 1965, which was before Star Trek even aired. It was fricking mind-blowingly imaginative for the time that the only way you could ever have come up with it was to be stoned out of your mind.

        The only way you wouldn't get how fricking weird this was is if you were exposed to 50+ years of science fiction that was directly influenced by it.

      The Lynch version has the most soul and captures the aesthetics and psychedelic feel of the book the most, but sacrifices everything that's not directly related to the core plot to squeeze it all into a 2-hour 15-minute runtime.

      The SyFy miniseries loses the least from book to screen, but looks and feels very cheap and amateurish.

      The Villeneuve version strikes a balance by getting in most of the main plot elements right without losing too much, and looks good, but it's kind of soulless with none of the psycadelic aspects of the books, and the aesthetics are very spartan.

      The Alan Smithee cut of the Lynch film is my favourite, followed by Spicediver’s cut. For most faithful adherence to the plot the TV series is best. Watching DUNC 1&2 after these will make you wonder how Villeneuve could possibly have shat out so many hours of movie while simultaneously eliminating so much from the books.

        She’s done in a ‘ghost from the future’ kind of way because Villeneuve doesn’t actually understand the books at all.
        Alia isn’t supposed to be a weird looking chick speaking to Paul from the future. She’s supposed to be an unnatural abomination that terrifies and repels all who encounter her, no kore so than the Bene Gesserit, for whom she represents an even greater loss of control than Paul (who in the end was not the Haderach).

      That's what I didnt get. I'm

      I watched DUNC 2 and for some reason I just kept wanting it to hurry up and be over. It's weird because I somehow kept expecting the surreal vision that Lynch had but it never happened. I dunno, when he drinks the magic worm pee the whole scene is so crazy. In Dunc 2... I honestly can't remember because I fell asleep (I was up for 24 hours) but if it was anything like the mom scene it wasn't that crazy. Also on Lynch Dune the whole messiah thing plays differently and the scene where he goes "my name is a weapon" is so good and especially "FATHER, THE SLEEPER HAS AWAKENED". Dunc version he's just pissed and I liked the first movie more.

      And I feel like they just set up Dunc 2 for a third movie. As much shit as the Lynch version gets it's just crazy how rushed everything felt in Part 2 while being like 2 hours 40 minutes long. The first movie was so slow and took it's time, which I really liked, but part 2 there is just so much cutting and time skipping that should feel like weeks or months but it just doesn't feel like it.

            Chalamet is a little rat weasel of a man, but he is still a man. It is infinitely more believable that a little rat weaselly man became skilful with a knife (watch any trained magician who does knife tricks) than a woman who will most likely simply panic and scream and become useless as women tend to do in dangerous situations.

    >Woah, dude, its so, like, trippy man!
    The first 15 minutes are a monologue about a fictitious planet, the last half the movie is a clipshow. Characters are barely developed, relationships arent developed at all. The dialogue is awful. The movie completely misses the themes of dune and doesn't have anything to say on its own. The only redeeming features of the movie are the set design and costumes. Its trippiness is overexaggerated, only the water of life scene is truly dreamlike.

    I thought it was ultra cheesy and kinda stupid but the plot was always interesting. I love the new films much more. We have the technology to actually shoot movies like this now.

      The technology was there back then too, it was used in Star Wars. The crew and director of this one simply didn't know what they were doing. The budget was no excuse, the first Star Wars was done on a shoestring budget too, and Tarkovsky showed what could be done with even less.

    Dunc 2 breaks the 4th wall.

    If you watch lynchs dune, you can imagine what is happening at all times off camera. Or imagine the events immediately leading up to or after a scene.

    It's verisimilitude.

    Dunc has none of that. When Paul rode the worm, you couldn't really think about them trekking to that particular sanddune. Or imagine what happens next, or in between scenes. There is simply no world, no characters. Just a bunch of lines and animations that all shout, I'm dune, in isolation.
