Of the things Lynch totally mishandled in the film, I think the worst sin was Alia and her terrible dialog. It was bad enough that he changed the entire meaning of the story by having it rain (thus totally undercutting everything we learn about Arakis before the end, everything that is supposed to come after). But he took the one truly unique and fascinating character and turned her into an example of how one should never write nor deliver dialog.

Even though this is a bad movie. It's a very entertaining one. I had to watch this in preparation of the new Dune. I LOL'd at every scene. Picard holding a pug while in battle was just too funny.

[@floppavevo5920]

ikr im a huge fan of the books and i watched this after reading the first one and i was dying of laughter the whole time it felt like an SNL skit a good one at that

Lynch's Dune has some good features. When they're good, they're very good. The other parts are SO bad... they're GREAT!

[@anonymousvagrant]

Watch the tv series instead

[@RandomAticsJR]

"Ginger? Even worse!" Best line ever

[@TheMarieBelanger]

It was supposed to be a mini-serie… so that explains why the monarchy backstabbing GoT style is so long and the desert action is so short in this movie.

[@SmegulonPrime]

Saw dune around 1990 when I was 8 years old, loved it then love it now, it's not perfect but that's what makes it great it has charm and character

[@alandgomez5905]

Same here. I honestly don't get the hate.

[@GottHammer]

I recall enjoying it when I first saw it (don't remember when/how, tho'), but after reading the book, and watching the SciFi/SyFy mini-series, and then re-watching the Lynch film, I think I like the mini-series better. I still like the Lynch film, tho', esp. since its style/aesthetic was used for the Dune games (I enjoyed the 1st one, an adventure game, but loved Dune 2...I think I still prefer Dune 2 over Dune 2k and Emperor BfD)

[@vvvmarko]

Same. I've watched it more than 10 times. And after reading the books I've loved it even more.

[@conlinjansen4945]

I so wish I could get a copy of the 4 hour uncut version sci fi channel showed in the 90's it was sooooo much better than the 2 hour version

[@scofieldvictoria]

I saw it the summer I turned 13 and bought it at some point in my 20’s because I love campy 80’s sci-fi and it’s weird/trippy

[@lh384]

My mom rented this when I was in the 2nd grade and it blew my 7 year old mind. I still love it, I don't care if everyone hates it.

[@baddogmtv]

its unique for sure, ten year old me was never the same, neither was 18 year old me when i thought a tab of lsd might go well for a re-visit of this film.

[@commandercaptain4664]

Solidarity! Everyone keeps saying it was confusing, but if anything, it kept explaining itself through all the ASMR whispering. I got it a little too easily.

[@Daneelro]

I was a lot older, maybe 16, when I caught it on late night TV, and was blown away by how different it was from all other sci-fi. Then I read the books, and found that they are much better (and the film deviates from them in some crucial ways, like Paul being the anti-hero rather than a hero). But I still don't hate the film.

[@Ceares]

Having never read the books, my mom and I both loved it and still do to this day. Super excited for the remake.

[@TokisanGames]

Dune was already released here in Taiwan. I just watched it two nights ago. It's an excellent remake. It tells the first part of the story without being campy. Though there's little exposition of the spice. It's mostly focused on Paul Atreides. I can't wait to see the next installment.

[@alandgomez5905]

I honestly can't wait lol. It'll be the first movie I see in theaters in over a year.

[@salehali9541]

Saw it yesterday here in the uae, great film and excited for part two

[@MrHodoAstartes]

Yeah, it's pretty much condensing the story towards Paul's perspective so you don't get too overwhelmed by the details and lore. Although there remains a lot of that still. And his constant visions of the oppressive destiny laying before him never seems like cheesy white savior chosen one power fantasy, but a terrifying burden threatening to break him. Which is transported via a score that is constantly eerie, ominous and overwhelming. The sun rising above the horizon feels like a declaration of war in itself. Everything is large to boggle the mind, the designs of buildings, vehicles and objects are bordering on alien. It is a joy to behold on the big screen.

[@jbvader721]

IF they make one. Remember it has to make money in order for a sequel to get greenlit.

[@petertaylor4980]

@@MrHodoAstartes, in the book I got the impression that the main subject of his dreams was the jihad spreading across the universe - although in fairness maybe that's more the second half. In the 2021 film he seems to dream mainly of Chani, and the only reference to the jihad was once in the stilltent.

The film, while being quite "questionable" in quality, did inspire pretty much the entire RTS games genre, quite the legacy.

[@dracometeors3010]

He was 64 when the Movie came out, he probaply was just happy to see it being turned into a Movie, not questioning quality and to be honest, not even watched with an real own opinion anymore. Having a Poster of the Visualisation within his last 2 years, don't really seem like a Sign of Anything.
