Yes, and even then he looks way cooler than the David Lynch adaptation.

Why didn't we get any shots of a cat and a rat duct taped together? I suppose that might be in the second film.

i mean even the world of warcraft movie made triple its money back


Wasn't this mainly because it massively over performed in China? Not saying your point is wrong overall, but that particular example has a lot to do with how insanely popular the game was in China at the time of release.

Yeah, it looked like something out of Apocalypse Now, so it was my favorite part of the trailer.

I really hope that this isn't as boring as Bladerunner 2049.

The trailer looks cool, but I could see how DV could stretch some of these scenes to their breaking point and put people to sleep.

Correct, it did very well in China, but every other market was a complete flop.

Excited for every part of this. Love the shields. Love the new look of the worm, even if Lynch worms will always be iconic to me. Love seeing the 'thopters in flight, and it's exactly how I always imagined it. Loved seeing the Harkonnen/Sardaukar drop out of the sky.

There's a part of my brain that appreciates the Floyd as a callback to the fact they were originally supposed to score the Jodorowsky Dune. But the other part of my brain loving HATES the trend of remaking classic rock with piano/orchestral whispery/children's voices for trailers.

I kind of expect it to end on the timeskip but it ending with liet in the desert thinking about how everything works and then pulling out of an overhead shot into the spiceblow that cuts to credits would be a decent stopping point. The culmination of everything going to poo poo and everyone is basically hosed. After that you can start with paul attacking the crawler that gurney is in and go from there.

Yeah. A lot. I am a proggy old fart. And I would rather hear the original version of Eclipse or maybe some of the countless other tracks that Floyd made for other actual soundtracks. Or at least the one orchestrated by Dee (formerly David) Palmer. Or even this version just without the vocals, I guess.

Like... along the same lines, I really like what Ramin Djawadi does with Westworld remixes most of the time. I like the two versions of Paint It Black, and his version of Heart-shaped Box is powerful. But probably because he doesn't try to add twee voices.

Either way, I don't expect Eclipse to be in the actual movie, and I am PSYCHED for this. Conversely, the trailer for Foundation looked pretty drat generic.

it's fun they're coming out at the same time, since i've maintained (probably incessantly and to much annoyance to the lurkers) that the plots of these books are the inverses of the other

Yeah my reaction on reading Dune is that it was Foundation from the perspective of the people getting jerked around by the Foundation. (My read on Foundation was that it was Canticle for Leibowitz for materialists)

i guess it's time to update the OP for the first time in a while.

Anyone who can beat me to a total re-write will get it pasted in place of my thing.

In the meantime I'm gonna at least update it with the trailer cast and poo poo.
