I MAY LOOK LIKE SHIT BUT IM ALSO DUMB AS FUCK



so, what does the absolute implosion of the film and theater industry for 9 solid months this year mean for us ever getting part 2 of this film,?? which was only in pre-production as far as I'm aware and probably quite dependent on ticket sales of part 1?

I'm still not clear on whether principal photography was/is for both parts. Hope they dont end up doing something like slapping together a one-movie cut to burn it off or just make the first half

If Dune is one of the 5 movies that actually releases this year...does that mean that it's automatically Best Picture? :allears:

I'm not keeping up on Dune news on a daily basis, but last I saw they were going ahead with filming additional scenes during post production, and the movie's still slated for a 2021 release.

wasn't it slated for november/december 2020? or was it postponed due to covid? (I assumed it was)

The Dune Encyclopedia has the full story iirc, also one of the notes? It's more a supposedly universal holy text that apparently got adopted by the Empire at some point despite initial shenanigans. A lot of religions are implied to have merged somehow, like Zensunni. Not sure on the realism of that, but weirder things have happened.

Continues the theme of Robotnik being the best part of anything Sonic.

yeah it's explicitly a combo of Orange order class protestantism and Catholicism, b/c herbert looked at the troubles and decided that would be a great way to synthesize a religion

Maybe it's a reference as far as the name goes (and if you believe the words of the son who will not be named), but it's explicitly a text that incorporates various fusions of Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism.

I only remember that because the stated reason for producing said book sounded stupid, and it kind of stuck out as something Frank didn't spend enough time thinking about.

It's just as well they don't go into the details of how it actually got popular, though it is noted the scholars who brought it to the Emperor seemed to impress him until he found the lead one raping his wife (but in retrospect it may have been a consensual encounter) and executed them all, step 2 ???, and then suddenly it's the most popular holy book in the galaxy. It's more funny given way weirder things have happened in history, like Christianity going from a persecuted minority religion to the official state religion of the Roman Empire.

IIRC it's noted that the Empire is fairly religiously tolerant, since a bunch of weirdo monks on some distant planet aren't really a threat to the order, but the Fremen and followers of Paul do a shitload of atrocities during the jihad to spread their religion regardless of whether Paul wants them to or not, which Paul realises makes him worse than the status quo in the long run.

I mean there's a whole appendix in Dune about how it was created and how it instantly caused more and more bloody religious wars than anything before

I'm pretty sure this is basically how you measure the success of a holy book.

Too late for the FaceApp thread, quite problematic, and very lazily done, but here's Lynch's Dune for y'all:

A few examples:















Fake edit: FaceApp seems to think Linda Hunt/Shadout Mapes is masculine to begin with and wants to transform to feminine. Also, when the scene includes pugs, the app wants to turn them into hair.
