BrutalistMcDonalds posted:funcom is making a dune MMO You know.. Dune just doesn't lend itself , to me, to merch. It's a very cerebral story, and....I don't know IM talking out my rear end it just seems loving wrong to mass market Dune. Like, it betrays the very meaning of the stories. The Dune Encyclopedia is cool, and the books of maps and tech details is cool, but to have it be something as banal and mundane as a t-shirt or ....a FUNKOPOP is just upsetting. But, Im cool with the existence of the RTS games. Eh, I don't know. Maybe im just being cranky and old and "drat KIDS"

Still my favourite scene. I like how the navigators just leave a huge wet mess on the floor and give no fucks.

I think Funcom could just reskin Conan Exiles and it would probably work okay. You'd need to add melting people down as a functionality though.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:THIS is baroque, dude This just reminded me of why I don't like this movie. It was the fault of the times, studios didn't trust their audiences to be bothered to watch anything that required thinking and hidden information. Almost every adaptation of the 70's and 80's suffered from this. The spice is NOT magical. It enhances perceptive and logical processes, with training. RM Mohiam should not be teleprojecting into the throne room. The guild should not suspect Paul to the exclusion of others. They could know the family is involved in the future trouble but only because their prescience is occluded. They would not know why. AS to the set, I agree it is too baroque. Shaddam in particular was known to be quite austere, wearing no robes, just a Sardukar uniform of approximately colonel rank.

Back in the day that's exactly what they used to do (and sometimes still do) and it generally works out better than most. I don't see why you couldn't sell Dune merch, though it depends on how exactly they market the film. Funko Pops are a given for literally everything they can license, and probably action figures. And half of you would totally buy a Stillsuit halloween costume.
