The trick, my dear Mohiam, is not minding that it hurts.

Yes, praise Him, Mua'Dib. You do not know how you have tested Him.

Bird thopters are also cool but that is a cool original design that also gets the weird flying machine aspect. Imo

Godfather also has people doing a bad reading of the first one thinking the protagonist is a good guy with a sequel designed to beat you over the head that he's evil. poo poo, I guess that makes Children of Dune Godfather Part III

Neither really had a huge cultural impact, like plenty of people went to see them but it wasn't a Huge Deal

Also afaict that leak is just a short teaser for a full trailer in September?

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've been cautious for months now but I'm going to be there day 1 in the IMAX in my respirator and eye protection and despite looking like a huge weirdo this is the right choice for me. I can't not see this in a theater.

just paint it black and pretend you're wearing a stillsuit

I've got an issue with his second post there, because Lawrence of Arabia, the movie, is also very much not a white savior story, even though it might appear to have gotten that reuputation in pop-cultural osmosis over time.

Lawrence of Arabia is a great loving movie. And it's on topic to talk about it because of deserts and Bedouin.

it's also about the complicated legacy of a guy who's moved into hagiographical legend despite being deeply conflicted about what he's done. that said, i think he's talking about the actual legacy of te lawrence not just the movie

drat, you can tell how much the science of tailer making has changed over 20 years.

I'm not even sure it's "worse" its just "really different."

Edit: If we're going to get the scene where they attack the Harkonnen's secret spice stockpile, does that mean we're going to see Geidi Prime? Like even if it just a background, or the CGI equivalent of a matte painting, that would be sick.

Unless they change it so the spice hoard is located on Arrakis in a warehouse secretly owned by the Harkonnens, or something. It would make more sense than an Atreides suicide attack force getting through Guild and Harkonnen customs.

there looks like a shot of sardukar doing triumph of the will reenactments on geidi prime

Honestly given that they're probably dialing back the Harkonnens there's nothing that you couldn't get away with a borderline pg13 and they seem to be trying to trick YA audiences in
