Well just got done watching it and I really enjoyed it but it still felt incredibly rushed, Denis decides to make the plot happen in one calendar year because he didn’t want to deal with a child actor for Alia? My son came away from the movie thinking that Jessica is super evil, so that was kind of heh. Scarabrae fucked around with this message at 02:59 on Mar 7, 2024 |

Thinking about it more making the final fight with Feyd an honorable showing of equal skill kinda annoys me, did they think a knife up through the skull wouldn’t get a PG13 rating anymore? Paul’s knife wound went pretty deep but he’s totally fine because he can now control his body to the cellular level to speed up healing but the non book audience doesn’t know anything about that. Now it would of worked if they spent anytime displaying Feyd’s skill but they showed him fighting drugged dudes and struggling a bit against a normal soldier (I presume) Having the entire story happen during a 7-8 month period of time doesn’t work for me personally, everything else was very good, BR2049 remains Denis’s best film however.

Also as a gen xer that grew up with the Lynch film I’m still having a hard time with the changes in pronunciation even if they are herbert estate approved

I have thought about the movie alot more and I think the lack of a time skip and shoving everything into a 6 month span of time ruined the movie for me personally, it just becomes a stretch for the characters motivations imo. I think Denis failed creatively with Alia, and the death of Paul’s first son is what makes it believable for me that he goes gently caress it burn it all down. So the removal of all of that just kind of took me out of the movie. This is my opinion and I recognize the movie is amazing in many other ways and if it gets more people to read the book then that’s cool too.

Director’s Cut won’t fix how badly the plot flows without the original time skip

Antiquated Pants posted:My Dune loving friend saw the movie and was so mad about the changes that she declared it the worst movie she'd ever seen and will in no way endorse or see the third one... Like drat, I understand having critiques and/or disappointments because things had to be cut, but it's a movie adaptation and things always have to be cut. Even if you take the DUNE out of it, it's a great film in general. The effects, both digital and practical were awesome, I am always in awe at how cool lasguns are, and was giggling in my seat when they did the worm invasion. Your friend is right, I said before its an amazing spectacle but a bad movie

Guys the book written from the 60’s has some old tropes, even though it still has important lessons for today.
