Sci-Fi Dune

While I would have loved that scene… staying away from the words jihad or catholic makes sense for a producer standpoint concerning GA.

They don't make sense at all considering the subject matter and what happens in later stories. Also, the second book is literally called "Dune: Messiah."


I'm sad now.

Just did my 2nd IMAX viewing. Still so f***ing glorious. My hype for Part Two alone should be able to sustain me for the next couple years lol.

Hans Zimmer with his Moog Modular Synthesizer circa 1980.

I must admit this is the first movie for a good while where I have been wanting to go for a 2nd viewing. This movie just gets under your skin.

Dune is definitely another LOTR for me. Not a huge fan of the series, but like the movies well enough.

Dune is definitely another LOTR for me. Not a huge fan of the series, but like the movies well enough.

For me this isn't about the base of the series or what the genre is.

It's THIS movie and how it's executed. I am intrigued by all the ideas of DUNE. I've found them interesting since I was a teen.

I cannot fathom why this version is being praised, not even generally, but by ANYONE.

It's objectively a monumental visual acheivment... And I seem to recall my entire time here on the Hype that visuals are never enough to justify either a film's existence or one's personal enjoyment, that character and plot must rule the day when analysing films and that beautiful CGI can never ever replace practical visuals and on and on for nine years now... So I don't understand the juices this gets flowing in people and that's after seeing it twice and being disinterested and bored to tears each time.

I don't get it. Both the film and how people are reacting to it given what so many have claimed were their standards for so many other things that have hit our screens.

You don’t have to “get it”. Others have vibed with it. You just haven’t and that’s ok.

The key to having a contrary opinion to the general consensus is to understand that your view doesn't apply to everyone. I hate Infinity War. One of the worst movies I've sat through in the theaters. But you don't see me calling out people on how they could enjoy it.

As we all suspected, Legendary was already in the black due to the HBO Max deal. This comes from a former editor at THR.

more deleted scenes

 

[OutOfBoose]

It seems they cut a bit too much... Yueh feels like the biggest victim. And Leto.

I think the stuff they added with Leto outweighs what they cut.

 

[Comicbookguy339]

Oof, big drop in China.

 

[Sithborg]

Whatever, **** the Chinese box office.

 

[Neno_Kos]

Seems weird this movie as movie isnt doing well in China. I expected drop, but not 84% drop. China usually gobble up this kind of movies. Big epic sagas. But I guess story about liberator of people with arabic sounding name wont do well there.

 

[DarkKnight88]

No Time to Die just opened there as well which I’m sure didn’t help.

 

[henzINNIT]

I hope the deleted scenes are at least featured on the Blu Ray. Sounds like some decent stuff was cut. It's weird to think some useful character moments were removed from such a drawn out film.

 

[DarkKnight88]

It’s pacing and keeping the focus on or about Paul.
