Fun article about Lynch’s Dune Premiere - eviltoast
‘What the Fuck Was This?’: Behind the 1984 ‘Dune’ Promotional Tour

Four gala premieres, a very excited cast, and David Lynch at the White House with the Reagans—Dune had a lot going for it. And a lot working against it.

I would love to see the “lost” footage mentioned in this article. Would make a great expanded mini series for some streamer. I know after this flopped that a four hour version ended up in syndicated TV, but this article mentions there’s like seven hours of cut scenes!

    It feels like the year 2200 not the year 10000. I know that’s strange to say. Everything is familiar, it could be another movie. When I watch it, my mind doesnt start to wonder about the back stories of people, buildings,… I don’t have to use my brain, it’s all there.
