Dune - The Movie
So, I was talking with a friend and the subject of Dune somehow came up. I told him that I thought the movie was better than the miniseries on Sci-Fi and he asked me if I seen the original. I gave him a quizzical look and said, "huh?" He told me there was an original theatrical release that was like six hours long. My response, "You, sir, are a damn dirty liar. If you value our friendship you will retract such an outrageous statement." He didn't so I am sans friend. Has anyone else heard of such a thing as a six hour Dune?
