Though this really belongs in the request forum, I'll second this. There is in fact some footage in the network cut that does not appear on either official DVD. Plus, its just cool to have some more Kevin Smith.

Also, it would go great with the Criterion Brazil boxset and the new Dune Extended DVD to showcase how drastically a movie can change when you let Universal Pictures studio editing staff hack at your film!

I've got a copy of this, too and I've been planning a composite version of it, using official DVD footage wherever possible (overdubbing necessary audio) and cutting in the extra scenes where needed. I'll post back about that here when I actually do it.

I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.

Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

Though many long-time Frank Herbert book aficionados tend to prefer the extended "Alan Smithee" television cut of Dune to Lynch's theatrical version, owing to the greater contextual sense it makes (the few misplaced, outtake "landing-strut" ship-approach scenes notwithstanding). It's a much more lucid film, overall.
