It's clear that the premise works better in a book or a weird experimental who-cares type of adaptation w David Lynch.I tried watching Dune a few months back. It put me to sleep. We switched to something else and said let’s try again when I’m not as tired. I’ve had zero interest in trying it again.Dune II
Impossible to take seriously with how many established stars are in it. Impossible to take seriously with Timmy ChalaMeh and Zendaya as the leads.
Stars mumbling in the desert for the first hour, then an action sequence where they're fighting with swords and then a helicopter with a gattling gun comes and wipes everybody out. Costumes, everything looks like a made for TV series.
Timmy is not believable as any kind of a fighter. It's like the studio forced him onto this which is why they had to spend so much money on supporting actors around him.
Rebecca Ferguson agreeing to do this is just a complete travesty.
Thank God 28 Years Later this afternoon. Narrowly avoided having to see How To Train Your Dragon instead.
I can watch comic book movies but I have no interest in things like Dune, LOTR, Harry Potter, etc.
I'm not really into sci fi but everything about this just screams that people were so excited for a big budget adaptation that they just overlook how fucking goofy the entire thing is.
