S4 Ep 138Dune (1984, David Lynch)

E

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you are preparing for or driving to a great meal! If not, I hope you are having a great day and we are getting you there. So we watched Dune (1984) and wow. I don't think we could say it any better than the director himself David Lynch. "Dune, I didn't have final cut on. It's the only film I've made where I didn't have. I didn't technically have final cut on The Elephant Man (1980), but Mel Brooks gave it to me, and on Dune the film, I started selling out, even in the script phase, knowing I didn't have final cut, and I sold out, so it was a slow dying-the-death, and a terrible, terrible experience. I don't know how it happened, I trusted that it would work out, but it was very naive and, the wrong move. In those days, the maximum length they figured I could have is two hours and seventeen minutes, and that's what the film is, so they wouldn't lose a screening a day, so once again, it's money talking, and not for the film at all, and so it was like compacted, and it hurt it, it hurt it. There is no other version. There's more stuff, but even that is putrefied." Also, dear friends, if you like live comedy and want to support me, your host, come and watch me do the joke’em’ups as I riff with Cineprov. How will Dune hold up?

Well, in honor of that (or, you know, just reaching), this week on Myopia: Defend Your Childhood, we watched the CGI-tastic film Escape from LA (1996), the sequel America clamored for (?)! Also, dear friends, if you like live comedy and want to support me, your host, come and watch me do the joke'em'ups as I riff over Santa Claus (1958) (AKA Santa vs the Devil) with Cineprov.

All of these make me think of my brothers and family. We watched them together or they were always on. With that, we begin with a real train wreck. This week on Myopia: Defend Your Childhood, we learn that Macaulay Culkin and Christopher Lloyd made bad movies. (I know what you are thinking, but this is where I learned this).
