I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

It's not a great Dune movie but it's a pretty cool Lynch sci fi movie.

There is no better feeling than taking a big swig of Nyquil and watching the 5-hour extended edition of Dune and having no idea what the gently caress is going on.

Jodorowsky’s Dune would have been so much better. Or at least more insane.

Yeah for a bizarre adaptation of a bizarre book, it was petty good. Patrick Stewart was great in it.

It's kind of a pity that the termination of that project was the result of such mundane things as money, and not giving the entire cast and crew ayahuasca in an attempt to go on a shared vision quest or something equally batshit.

The money issue was at least understandable. Anyone who has a problem with Jodorowsky's methods doesn't appreciate then.

I'm pretty sure the only way to do Dune better is to, in fact, do it more insane.

All systems nominal.
I can't be the only one who thinks the studio is vastly overestimating the appeal of Dune as a blockbuster they're hoping it'll be. It's only appropriate Villeneueve is directing, because it'll be a repeat of how BR2049 was received.
