I looked it up and no director's cut although David Lynch was approached about it. He said no* Archived Message

Previous Message Lynch's movie was cut way too much from what I hear. Supposedly his version was pretty true to the book but due to time constraints was edited a large amount. Not sure if there's a director's cut. If wo, I may watch it and see. I did like how they showed how much the Bene Gesserit sisterhood had spent centuries basically religiously brainwashing the natives for the "coming" of the Kwisatz Haderach. Previous Message Finally found a time to go and watch it. Dang...it was really good. As somebody that only ever watched the original movie (and have just gotten started reading the book)...do these movies adhere more closely to the book than the original movie back in the 80's? I was struck with how dark it was. REALLY good...very much enjoyed it...but man, it was dark with the whole thing with Jessica/Paul/Chani/Stilgar....the religious angle of North and South, etc. Also, I think I was kind of a moron because I had no idea that there was for sure going to be a Dune Pt. 3, so I was watching and waiting for resolution that never came in Pt. 2. Going to go see it again next week. No Dune 2 popcorn buckets available for sale, sadly.
