Negative Positive
Title: This movie is Doomed ---There is a reason for Editors after all!
Review: Dune was an incredible story and incredible movie -- although albeit only the most diehard fans could follow it on first viewing. Others learned to love this master piece of sci fi done with no holds barred on the excellent filming, acting, directing, and music. Truly David Lynch was masterful. Ok, now let's get to the 'Extended Version' . This was just god-awful, it is obvious why David Lynch refused to have his name associated with the ridiculous mess with added footage and where good footage was replaced with bad. This version could be the basis for an entire course for movie Editors. It clearly makes one appreciate what good editing can do for a film, and how bad editing can destroy it -as it did for this Extended version of Dune. No wonder they had to use a fake director's name like 'Smithe'.
