It'll be hard to see anyone else but Ian McNeice as Baron Harkonnen

I bitch about Hollywood remakes as much as the next guy, but I'll likely be guilty of throwing down the cash to see this in IMAX.

It's been literal decades since I read the original or watched the 80's show, but the one thing I remember young me thinking was Duncan Idaho being a bad ass, and he kind of just went out with a pop in the movie?

Idaho’s part in Dune kind of necessitates that, though the later installments show off his bad-assery.

Mamma sure has a thing for a specific character, doesn’t he? Complete badass who dies quickly.

Of course,it is.

I Guess there’s a 4 hour renegade cut of the 1984 movie. Anyone ever seen that?
[Reply]

I assume it still has weirding modules and heart plugs, so no, I haven’t.

And you’d pretty much have to Clockwork Orange me to get me to watch it.

Roast in hell Lynch. :-)

That movie needed to be edited down to about 2:20.

Feyd casting officially announced.

Read something yesterday that said footage from this was viewed by industry people in the last couple of weeks, and the reaction was comparisons to Lord of the Rings. In terms of the impact it may have and the technical advances on display.

FWIW.

Can't wait for this. One of my all-time favorite book series. I was really impressed with Chalamet in The King. I think he'll nail Paul.

Everybody back up and give Frazod some room in here

Heh. I've already said my peace. I loved the new Blade Runner and I'm willing to give this guy the benefit of the doubt. Barely.

The problem, IMO, is there's just too much material to adequately cover in a 2-3 hour movie. Dune should be an Amazon/Netflix HBO miniseries. I'd feel much better about that.
[Reply]

I believe it's going to be two movies. I think it's doable if they're on the longer side.
[Reply]

Can't wait for this . The cast is flat out awesome & I love all of the director's films (esp Blade Runner 2049).

I think we can expect a trailer in front of Tenet (the Christopher Nolan film coming out in July).
[Reply]

First trailer is slated to be out in the next month, attached to the 10th anniversary rerelease of Inception.
