Dune [2020] - Trailer Discussion

Posted in General Discussion because this isn’t Star Wars.

 

 

 

After seeing the trailer for the latest adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune, I was just wondering what everyone else’s take on it was.  In addition, I’ve posted a poll so every can state their own familiarity with Dune.

Looks like I’ll be rereading this yet again but at least I have a new copy of it.  Luckily, I acquired it in a bookstore before the end times.  (I prefer seeing my books physically in front of me when I purchase them.)

Oh . . . and here’s the trailer so you don’t have to search for it.

From what I’ve heard this movie only covers the first half of the book.

Everything is too %^&*! dark. What is it with the aversion of modern filmakers to colour?!

I am glad Paul actually looks like the teenager he is supposed to be.

Jason Mamoa as Duncan???!! Are you kidding me.? Terrible.

Would have preferred another mini-series to a theatrical film to be honest.

We will see.

Films.

The movie only covers the first half of the book from what I gather.
