The director of the original DuneMovie DavidLynch weighs in on whether he would revisit for a director's cut.

✖ Last year's Dune was a success with fans and critics alike, but the first film inspired by the material didn't earn the same reception, with director David Lynch largely distancing himself from the project over the decades.

"Dune -- people have said, 'Don't you want to go back and fiddle with Dune?' And I was so depressed and sickened by it, you know?" Lynch shared with The A.V. Club."I want to say, I loved everybody that I worked with; they were so fantastic. I loved all the actors; I loved the crew; I loved working in Mexico; I loved everything except that I didn't have final cut. And I even loved Dino [De Laurentiis], who wouldn't give me what I wanted.

"I wanted to walk away. I always say, and it's true, that with Dune, I sold out before I finished. It's not like there's a bunch of gold in the vaults waiting to be cut and put back together," the filmmaker admitted."It's like, early on I knew what Dino wanted and what I could get away with and what I couldn't. And so I started selling out, and it's a sad, sad, pathetic, ridiculous story. But I would like to see what is there.
