Pham Nuwen posted:They don't use guns as we know them because the shields negate that sort of poo poo, but IIRC they do have some sort of weird slow dart guns that can penetrate shields... which seems like a perfectly good reason to wear armor. Maula pistols are spring loaded slug throwers, they can't penetrate shields but that doesn't matter in the deep desert. I guess that maintenance of traditional firearms would be a bitch on a desert planet.

(That's one thing the miniseries series got right.) And then of course the God Emperor adaptation will be called Several Idahos

It’s gonna be two movies for Dune and then an HBO style mini series for Messiah to complete Paul’s tale. Mark my words.

Mister Speaker posted:gently caress OFF I've often tried to pinpoint the movie that made "movie adaptation makes long-beloved book into CROSS PLATFORM LICENSE REVENUE GENERATOR" a thing, and I think I've pegged Peter Jackson as chiefly responsible. It's Dune's turn now, I guess. Funko's gonna love a movie with all the main characters in identical suits. Next year: riding sandworms in Fortnite.

Yeah, Lord of the Rings was probably the start of the adaptation megafranchise era. While they owe a lot to Star Wars, LotR being a proven case you can take a major film adaptation and win massive critical acclaim as well as megabucks across literally every possible medium.

It's the complete dearth of any literary critical thinking that gets me here is an element of a story that's supposed to highlight how the people in the story are as resourceful as they are religiously fanatical about the specifics of their weaponry and the use of which, we can probably make a decent buck out of mass-producing copies and selling them to protofascist preppers from Iowa and yes as I write it out I realize how appropriate it actually is

Iron Man scene was a vision of the shield wall breach, right? This movie supposedly ends near the spice orgy, well before the final assault. What if that’s “completed” assets for the proposed next movie that gets shopped around to the suits? What if that’s not in this movie at all but it’s been tossed in at the end like the TIE scene in Rogue One?
