The David Lynch version.

There was a three-hour extended cut of the film made for television
(re-inserting many scenes that Lynch cut from the theatrical version.) Lynch
has disowned the extended cut, but I assume it's interesting as a curiosity.
The extended cut, having never been released theatrically, has long been
available on DVD (and, in Australia, quite cheaply,) in 'Pan & Scan' format.
But, the new Region 1 Special Edition of Dune seems to contain the extended
cut in 2.35:1 anamorphic (NOTE: it seems to be the only the Region 1 release
that has the extended cut in 2.35:1, other special editions still have it in
Pan & Scan)
