I was never a fan. I had just read the books and was happy finding out a good director had done a movie about them. I wondered why I had never heard about it. The movie answered that question lol.

I see those frames from the film, and I’ll raise you Sting in metal undies.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed every adaptation of Dune that I’ve seen, which I guess is only 3: the David Lynch one, the Villeneuve one, and the Syfy channel one,.which never seems to be mentioned. I’ve been meaning to watch the documentary about the crazytown Jodorowsky version that never happened; heard it was good.

My only sadness is that James McAvoy didn’t go full worm in the Syfy shows second season. Instead he just keeps wandering around shirtless with some paint and schmutz on his arm like Sting with a weird skin rash.

I found thr Syfy channel version on DVD, both sets, at a thrift store for like four bucks. It really is pretty good.

Everything the mutant spice baby guild thing says is beyond perfect. I love them. And the emperor just stands there reading terrible exposition terribly. I love it.

I did not say this. I am not here.

I unironically love this movie, and the soundtrack is a classic too.
