    I wish they were both about 30% longer. I missed scenes like the water politics in the beginning and seeing the mentat for the Baron pine for Jessica and the politics that followed. There were a lot of things cut and I understand why but I wish he’d make a directors cut.

    He’s my favorite director (and team) right now but his unwillingness to do directors cuts (longer more substantial versions of his films) is a real bummer. Even if the first cut is perfect, like Prisoners, a few extra scenes can go a long way in making the world feel more alive imo.
