Yancy BernsGUEST
Dino.
Yancy BernsGUEST
Dino produced Dune, which he clashed with Lynch on, and it flopped terribly, and he still offered to produce this.
AaronHOST
Yeah.
AaronHOST
Basically, Lynch had this idea.
AaronHOST
Yeah.
AaronHOST
And I'd seen Elephant Man and that ruined me because it's so sad, but it's great.
AaronHOST
Skipped Dune and eventually got to this as far as trying Lynch again.
AaronHOST
I think I said something like I tried Behold and Drive Baby or something.
Robert LambHOST
It is Captain Picard, Jean-Luc Picard, played by Patrick Stewart, born 1940.
Robert LambHOST
We've talked about Stewart before on Weird House Cinema because we did a two-part episode on David Lynch's Dune from 1984.
Joe McCormickHOST
Hmm.
Joe McCormickHOST
In which he plays Gurney Halleck, and-
Lewis NickHOST
Lynch does.
Lewis NickHOST
In the Lynch cut of Dune, it rained on Arrakis way too early.
Lewis NickHOST
It shouldn't be doing that for 10,000 years or something.
Lewis NickHOST
So, you know, that's pretty bonkers, I gotta say.
Rebecca FonsHOST
Ooh.
Rebecca FonsHOST
Well, because the trailer just dropped for Dune 3, I think the Denis Villeneuve Dunes are great.
Rebecca FonsHOST
But I am a David Lynch Dune apologist, so I actually...
Rebecca FonsHOST
They're different.
Rebecca FonsHOST
They're different.
Rebecca FonsHOST
But the new Dunes are excellent.
Rebecca FonsHOST
And I guess I would say I would be okay with saying that they are better than the David Lynch Dune.
Rebecca FonsHOST
They're...
JaceHOST
I think he's still alive.
JaceHOST
He was in Dune.
JaceHOST
Way back in the day, the David Lynch Dune, but specifically he was in Hunt for Red October and I think he's like the president's chief of staff or something.
JaceHOST
It's a great Jack Ryan movie and Jack Ryan says his theory on Sean Connery's characters trying to defect and bring the Russian sub and all the rest of the joint chiefs laugh at him.
JaceHOST
at Jack Ryan and they all leave the room.
Louis NickHOST
It's a tremendous release.
Mitch SchmidtHOST
Well, it takes me back to going in the hole at the beginning of Blue Velvet or when the Atreides are loading up to leave in Dune.
Mitch SchmidtHOST
The sort of space, white noise, sort of space sound we hear.
Tom DoughertyHOST
When Leland gets arrested for killing Jacques and there's that hole in the tile and there's that howling noise as they draw out on it and you just hear the beep, beep.
MichaelHOST
[laughs]
MattHOST
I'm not gonna lie, I just recently watched Lynch's Dune.
MichaelHOST
Uh, I l- I love it even though it's bad.
MattHOST
And yes, it's...
MichaelHOST
It's incredibly charming, like, and there's some cool visual stuff.
MattHOST
Yeah.
MattHOST
And I think if you're a fan of the newer Dune, if you were to watch it, you're going to see a lot of, like, inspiration that...
MattHOST
Because a lot of it feels very same.
Cam WalshHOST
No.
Cam WalshHOST
When I, when I rewatched the entire MCU, when I rewatch all the two, fuck it, I'll rewatch the first Dune, the David Lynch Dune as well.
Cam WalshHOST
And I rewatched the Dunes.
Cam WalshHOST
Um, then when I throw on the, the Harry Potter movies and the book, like,
George CarmiHOST
The rest of you, your Letterboxd staff at the end of the year is going to be 90% rewatches.
2 HRS LATER
Cam WalshHOST
Wow, interesting.
Cam WalshHOST
It was Pro Coda.
Cam WalshHOST
It was my highest rated of that year, and then I remembered Wait Dune.
Liam PrainoGUEST
Yeah.
Liam PrainoGUEST
I mean, uh, I like the show Twin Peaks a lot and I've not seen this movie, but I know a lot of people will have also known him from the original Dune directed by David Lynch.
Liam PrainoGUEST
And I believe that has somewhat of a, that has somewhat of a cult following if I'm not mistaken.
Liam PrainoGUEST
Yeah.
Lewis NickHOST
but we've seen this twice before in david lynch movies haven't we marietta and then in dune with the the old reverend the voice from the out of old you know she's doing that bit and we see the blood covered hand uh in this case it might as well be blood covered because of all the shit that's going on here but um not actually read in uh this movie but nice little i would say director's signature why not
Mitch SchmidtHOST
i bet we see it again Yeah, I mean, it definitely seems like...
Mitch SchmidtHOST
There's definitely things in Dune that I think Lynch carried on throughout the rest of his movies.
Mitch SchmidtHOST
I mean, anybody who skips
Lewis NickHOST
Dune when they're trying to learn about David Lynch is
Mitch SchmidtHOST
doing it at their own peril.
Mitch SchmidtHOST
Duning it at their own
Mitch SchmidtHOST
Good night or whatever.
