Yes, basically. I pronouce it "Bo-vair" (so it rhymes with 'no air'), but at least you're in a recognizable ballpark-type area. I pretty much answer to anything, including the more common "Boys-Vert"

I'm guessing we're in for a wait as I image Lynch probably just brought this up when the DVD was recently announced. I wonder if Universal would consider a stopgap release of a 16x9 theatrical now, then the director's cut by itself down the road.

This is good news indeed, just wish we could still get it soon.

Well get this... after years of saying he would never revisit Dune, at the 11th hour director David Lynch decided that he wanted to be involved in the new DVD after all. Which means that when it's eventually released, not only is the DVD going to include the original theatrical version of the film... it will include a brand new "director's extended cut" edited by Lynch himself! No kidding.

Well, considering that he hasn't done a true film since '02 in Darkend Room, then I think my statement stands...but thanks for your welcomed comment. However, I didn't know that it was a requirement to work in the film industry to be a member on a DVD forum.
Maybe I could ask the same of you. How many films have you worked on living in Astoria, NY?

So what else has Lynch got to do? Like I said, probably more than you.
When you get your big film career rolling, maybe I'll start caring about what you think of the progress of other filmmakers' careers. Until then, your ignorant views of other people's lives does little to contribute to the discussion.

Am I not allowed to post in response to your posts? Etc. *snore*

And obviously you don't get it. I don't give a shit.

Director's cut? Fuck me gently with a chainsaw...
Maybe he'll end up doing one for "Twin Peaks Fire Walk with Me," with all of the cut footage. As unlikely as I thought that to be, revisiting "Dune" seemed even moreso.

Apparently dj isn't aware of my and others recent light-sided commerotery on here.
I just hope that when this Dune disc is released eventually that it has some special features.

This seems fishy to me. "smells like yesterday's diapers". To put it another way: highly unfuckinglikely. This is one of the problems with the Internet--tons of information, who the hell knows if it's true? Funny how Digitalbits doesn't cite a source. I will believe it when Lynch confirms it.
