Yep, I've seen both of the mini series and they are good, but I also found them a bit boring at times as certain parts dragged on when instead they could have used narration to progress the story faster when needed.

And yes, the production values were quite bad in places. Definitely more like a hallmark TV movie rather than BSG in that regard.

Now wouldn't that be good. With this being the final series of BSG the production and special effects team will be looking for new work. They would make a great job of a Dune film!

@Harrison have you seen the Extended version of Dune ??? it's on quite a bit longer and has a new intro with male narration and even a piccy of the book and artwork for the intro. The film also has quite a few new bits that wheren't in before i'm yet to fully watch it but having glanced at the tv whilst on the puter i saw quite a few additions.

We're also forgetting about the latest Batman film.

personally i think we need more movies with zombies, shotguns and chainsaws....

although a dawn of war movie would be absolute sublime! using the amazing renderings of the spirtits within team and FFVII advent children.

but yes.... personally i want more zombie flicks please

Why? All you have to do is go into any major town centre on a Friday and Saturday night and you can watch lots of zombies all trying to kill each other.

But do we need another Resident Evil movie? Personally I don't think so, besides Uwe Boll directs it this time

I've got the DVD "Dune - Special Edition" which comes on 2 DVDs in a nice case. This contains the directors cut of the film which is longer. Is that the same as the one you are talking about?

here is a bit of chatter from torrentleech where i got it :

live2give: This is the Alan Smithee version.
Folks, be sure that this is what you want, especially if you are a big DL fan. From wikipedia:

"The less-seen 189-minute "Alan Smithee" version [was] prepared originally for . . . television without either participation or authorization by David Lynch . . . . [It] was edited in a seemingly haphazard way . . . [and] Lynch objected to these edits and had his name removed from the credits of this print."

Thanks for the up!

hope this answers your question harrison

Thanks for the info. I will have to take a look at my Special Edition version and see if it is the same or not. If not then I'm definitely downloading it!
