Dune ('84)/Dune Part I & II - A Copy of A Copy Ep. 207

In celebration of Rob’s birthday, Ray and Rob are biting off more than they can chew again by watching three movies! They’re also hoping to find redemption in a film that its own filmmaker has disowned by watching David Lynch’s (BLUE VELVET, LOST HIGHWAY) divisive take on Frank Herbert’s DUNE as well as the new, more critically heralded DUNE PART I and DUNE PART II, directed by Denis Villeneuve (BLADE RUNNER 2049, PRISONERS)! Dune ’84 was a box office disaster and relegated David Lynch to arthouse filmmaking for the rest of his career, but many argue there are many redeeming factors to his vision that have risen it to the status of cult classic! While Denis was able to take his time and span the story across two films, Lynch was forced to stuff a massive sci-fi epic into a single 2-hour adventure. Ray and Rob are massive fans of the new versions and have decent memories of the original, but will this back-to-back rewatch find them appreciating Lynch’s vision more? Or will they find themselves agreeing with Lynch himself that DUNE ’84 is better left to the trash bin of history? Tune in to find out!
