    This is the director’s cut. That said I get you and I also wouldn’t mind an extended cut even if it ruins some of the fine pacing.

    Kind of like in love Alien’s director cut even if some of the extended scene aren’t great for the pacing or break some of the suspense.

      Yeah, when I say “director’s cut” what I really mean is a LoTR-style extended version which includes all the additional scenes that had to be cut to fit within the confines of a theatrical release.

      In the case of Dune Two, I’d argue this would actually resolve a lot of pacing issues instead of introducing them. Many parts of this movie felt overly rushed.
