It's beautiful. And it's for the god of...of...arts and crafts. I think that's what he said.

I'm betting the sex scene to be absolutely tame. The camera zoomed in on them just huddled against each other under the covers, exhaling slowly and looking more like they're trying to get into a better cuddle position. No crazy superhero sex or loving in the sky.

Years ago, I listened pretty often to a music review show on the local NPR with album ratings that were basically buy, pirate, or skip.

With new music now going to streaming, I'm not sure that still works for music, but it still works for movies.

gurney halleck being played by josh brolin was a bad idea. halleck should be played by some thumb-looking ugly fucker. also brolin way oversells some of his lines for some reason. on the other hand rebecca ferguson takes the thankless role of lady jessica and actually turns it into something interesting to watch

and there was a criminal lack of worm. like if you saw the trailer you saw the most worm there is in the movie, which is lame

yeah I’m kind of surprised how much love it’s getting, it certainly wasn’t bad but it didn’t add anything either

I have a projector that clicks onto my cell phone so I watched Dune on my wall which was pretty cool.

I think they nailed the aesthetics overall but I miss the greasy Lynch Harkonnens. The audio book series still beats the new movie by a lot but I enjoyed it (the audio books are really, really good). The movie ending abruptly threw me off bc I'd be shocked if they complete the series

i'd been predicting that the movie would bomb at the box office for a while, but it does look like i'm wrong because it made $40 million this weekend, which is the best of villenueve's career. he somehow got to make dune after br2049 barely broke even so who knows they might hand him more money for some inexplicable reason

supposedly they also told him that if enough people streamed it on HBO Max then they would make a sequel even if the box office returns weren't high enough, which tbf is probably them just bullshitting him to maintain a relationship but gives hope to people like me who enjoyed the movie on HBO and would like to see part two

It might be a positive that Warner Bros made the movie. They steamed ahead on Watchmen even though they didn't own the film rights to it and have a long track record of pleasing stars/directors even if some of their films aren't big draws
