Also, how cool is it that Dune 2 got green lit immediately? Love it when quality gets the nod.

I'm just surprised that nothing was already green lit, not even a pre production, like what executive sees the movie and doesn't go, "yep, people will love this".

You mean to tell me that executives are out of touch from the base that actually buy their products? What gave you that idea?

I wasn’t expecting a sequel, thought they were cramming the whole thing into one

Funcom is working on a game from the Dune universe, so who knows

I think it was fair to wait and see. Dune only gets weirder from here. I mean, I can understand the studio being cautious about "guy turns into sandworm"

So I finally been able to go and see this.

Another visual orgasm by Villeneuve. Bummer missing the IMAX projection!

I’m really happy, my complaints are the music getting too loud (dunno if is the film mix the problem, or if cinemas are supposed to setup accordingly to the size of their theatres and they skimp on that job), and a general “dissatisfaction” because the mega cast feels under used. This feeling is normally a good sign the film is good for me, and makes me feel like seeing it again

Now I feel like reading the books

Ye but you put a “chapter one” in the titles if you don’t intend to do sequels?

(Hopefully I’ll forget that bit about turning into a sand worm by the time those come out)

Everybody is dissecting this film right now

where do they get the scenes they show, and how are they not getting strikes.

I don’t think all this material is always from trailers (I watched one about Tenet by Thomas Flight last night).
