I like it too. I haven't read the book, so my reasons for liking most of it and not some of the rest have nothing to do with Herbert. I think Lynch's film is unique and striking, and it benefits from having some very amazing performances in it (NOT Kyle Maclachlan's).matrixman wrote:Well, EL is passionate about Dune, and I respect that. I know I'm part of a minuscule and nutty minority who actually likes Lynch's version of Dune, heh.
But certainly, I can respect a Herbert fan despising it. Being a Tolkien fan, I despise those aberrations known as Peter Jackson's LoTR trilogy. But that's already been covered elsewhere . . .
