Rotten Tomatoes gets manipulated, and it's obvious. It's largely a marketing tool for studios more than an information tool for consumers.

I think the rotten/not rotten things come from whether the person would recommend it. I can see someone people saying, I thought this was crap but someone might like it.

Maybe for now, since they have not started publishing non-pro-reviewer reviews yet. But once they do, I think their ratings should be fair. You can see how both pro-reviewers vs others voted then.

Well, not in Part II

[Show spoiler]only if they use flashbacks

The movie was pretty good 8/10
I am hoping there would be an extended UHD release.

Villeneuve doesn't do extended cuts.

Why? Has there been some sort of publicity about scenes that he filmed for DUNE that he cut?

Why? Because I can’t get enough. Do not take it too seriously, it’s just a wishful thinking…

Oh, I agree. I love me some deleted scenes and wish Villeneuve would capitulate and allow them to be seen. Not necessarily extended cuts of his films, but the deleted scenes as supplements would be nice. I'd love to see some of that hour-plus of additional BLADE RUNNER 2049 material some day, for example.

I didn't know that he doesn't do them but I would love to see some for this movie.

4K + 3D + Steelbook = Preorder.

If you‘re out of luck in the US, you might want to look into the French release.

I cancelled mine, so there should be at least one left

I have read them a couple of years ago but

[Show spoiler]the second movie covers the second half of the first novel, Duncan is not in there. He only shows up again in Messiah and is then in every book hence. So we would see Momoa again in the film adaptation of Messiah may we get one. I think the part of Hayt is amazing and I think Momoa has got the chops to nail it.

[Show spoiler]ah, you have then! sorry, your reply was to a quote that discussed all the possible coming movies/series over thousands of years (in the story) - didn't clock you meant just the second part of the first book

Re-reading the series currently and half way through CoD

[SpartanJGE]

I'll be getting some version of this for sure... BBY steelbook would be nice if the art is good. But a for sure purchase for me.

How does that happen? The 2/5 rating was only from pro-reviewers and/or user reviews? Sometimes one of the rating categories is much higher than the other which compensates.

Anyway, do you have a link to such a movie on RT so we can confirm it and check what’s weird about it?

Not bad, not bad.
