DAVIDLYNCH [7:36 PM PST]: SMOOCHES AMOR AND HBE
SkAteAleX1 [7:37 PM PST]: David you have to give me some news on if the rumors are true about the Dune dvd

DAVIDLYNCH [7:38 PM PST]: I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT DUNE SK8
cinemalover [7:38 PM PST]: There were rumors again David - that you were doing a directors cut of Dune
SkAteAleX1 [7:38 PM PST]: Thanks David and good night everyone

Just a thought . . . and it certainly would support the email comment about him avoiding the publicity.

So did everyone catch Bill Hunt's follow-up?
He's now posting the following:
He's now posting the following:
Next, we've followed up with our Universal sources and have now been told that director David Lynch's participation in the Dune: Extended Edition isn't a done deal yet. It IS the reason the title was delayed, but the details about Lynch's involvement are apparently still in discussion. So we're going to suggest that our previous post is best considered Rumor Mill-worthy for the time being, until things are more official. We've amended the earlier post accordingly. I don't want to get anyone's hopes too high, but I have to tell you mine are pretty well into the stratosphere at the moment. Let's all cross our fingers on this one, because Lynch's Dune ranks right up there with Ridley Scott's Blade Runner at the top of the list of films that most deserve revisiting by their directors on DVD. We'll keep you posted.

So this movie is set to be released soon. What's the latest news on Lynch's involvement? Any final word about how the anamorphic extended material was handled? Crazy cropped 4:3 or not?

New Release Date for Dune SE DVD?
Play USA is reporting a new release date for Dune on DVD of July 26th. Most likely there will be no involvement from David Lynch on this release. I'm guessing we will get another press release sometime next week.
