    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    I would pick it up if I could get it at close to retail plus international shipping, but $250+ is too rich for my blood. I have the official TV cut from an earlier Universal DVD, and the second included TV cut is a “fan edit” bootleg that’s pretty easily accessible online. I was willing to do...

    I kinda dig that. It’s subtle in a way not much deluxe packaging is.

    @t1g3r5fan is going to be reviewing the 4K for HTF and the disc is on its way to him - flagging him so that he can keep an eye out for that when it arrives!

    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    I don't think Lynch has any kind of control over any aspect of Dune, and judging from past releases, Universal doesn't seem to much care about what Lynch thinks about Dune. Universal now owns Lost Highway but they acquired it so it seems more reasonable that they didn't realize Lynch had home...

    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    It's definitely frustrating, this had "release of the year" potential and now it's just a new transfer with old bonus features and a couple new commentaries - which aren't worthless, and Paul Sammon typically has interesting things to say, but I'm a little wary of the second commentary from a...

    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    With a feature length documentary, this was an easy pre-order. Without it, I really don't know. I had been leaning towards trying to find the German set anyway, and this news tips the scales in favor of that. Or waiting altogether until I'm fully 4K and then picking it up. Arrow may be...

    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    I never interpreted his choices that way, though I understand where you’re coming from. I think that he’s more of an all around artist than just a filmmaker, and that he’s more interested in following his muse than doing any one particular thing. For him, there’s no point to making a film he...

    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    I don’t think Marvel, Edgar Wright or Scott Derrickson are great examples of an evil studio not being willing to work with the directors they hired. Edgar Wright is an interesting case. He started developing Ant-Man for Marvel before there was a fully fledged MCU. The problem developed because...

    There is an even more deluxe set from Koch in Germany, but it’s apparently exclusive to their website, which doesn’t ship to the U.S. @David Norman any ideas on that?

    International Arrow Video Press Release: DUNE (1984) (4K UHD)

    I’m the opposite - I find Dune (especially the first half) endlessly fascinating. While I very much want to like Inland Empire, it’s always a struggle for me to stay focused, and this is coming from me, the guy who loves all of the Twin Peaks seasons.
