Only the books written by Frank Herbert are canon.

Thank you for that. It wasn't until very recently that I saw Eraserhead- what a crazy movie. When I heard the name David Lynch, I had always thought of Dune. I guess he had made other, crazier, movies. Does anyone know why he was chosen for Dune, or is it that he was the only one willing to take a chance on it?

He was hot off the success of Elephant Man.

Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.

Yep elephant man was HUGE hit and oscar nominated. If you like lynch, try Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks, both dam good.

This video from Sean Young is priceless stuff, loved it. Wish they would do a Blue of Dune with every strip of film, audio and video, the David Lynch version he wanted etc, it would be cool. I know a lot don't like the the movie, but to each their own.

franks comment from the the interview with him and lynch says it all.

Is this the Sean Young video with her shown reading GEoD in the back of the car? Sorry, I haven't watched it but I think it's been posted before.

That's the one. (It was CoD, btw)

Yeah, twice. First by me in May of last year (same topic title, too) and then by Drunken Idaho last October.
