After reading the book (twice), watching both movies and the mini series, my ranking is this
1. DUNC
2. Book/Lynch
3.
4. Mini series
The book was great the first time but on second reading it's a bit lifeless. Villeneuve brings the world and characters to life better than the book apart from maybe Duncan Idaho and Thufir. Some of the scenes are much better such as the scene in the tent after they escape the Harkonnens.
The Lynch version is fine, I like the costumes, the expanding of some elements of the world such as the Spacing Guild and the sets but overall it feels comedic due to the silly moments like milking a cat.
The series was OK, the theatrical acting is pretty bad, Paul is awful and unlikeable but they did make an effort with the show considering its budget.

You're free to rank them yourself.
Nta. But I’ve read the entire series (except Bryan’s book) multiple times. I’m biased toward the book so I’d have to put it 1. Miniseries 2. DUNC 3. Lynch 4. I hate the lynch adaption solely for the way he interpreted the ‘voice’. It’s so fricking stupid and he totally missed or completely ignored the mechanism by which the voice works. DUNC actually did a pretty good job and villaneuve put on screen pretty much exactly how I envisioned it. Overall I thought DUNC was very loyal to the source material. Haven’t seen the mini series since it aired on sci-fi but I remember it being very good.
Villeneuve brought the world to life in ways I don't even think Herbert thought of. I feel like Lynch caught some of the otherworldlyness of Dune though and some of the low-fi tech of the universe. I would love an extended version of Villeneuves movies just to flesh out some other areas but at the same time I feel like the parts he cut were worth cutting out especially in the movie format.

Which one?
I want to play that one but I'm currently playing this.
My man
Should I buy this game
Yes it’s not too expensive compared to other space “little pieces on a map” games. And it doesn’t take up a whole day or even six hours it’s only about 1-3 hours per game so you can do a couple in a row. However the game is far improved with more players as each house has a different role and their own rules. Ideally 5 or 6 players.
>Ideally 5 or 6 players.
This is my problem I only know like two people to play with.
You can come play with my group.
Thanks anon. It's hard to get people to play board games generally.
why not both?
...the casting was awful
the gender swap was shit and that black lady is an awful actress and totally wrong for that role
Chani is described as elfin in the book--she wasn't black... In fact all of the fremin were based on arabs--not blacks. I don't see why it was so hard to get an arab for the part if you wanted diversity.
Fremen were based on both Arabs and Caucasian mountain tribes. So even whiter. But diversity means non-white, so here we are.
You forgot DUNE: the ballet.
Are they supposed to be the desert, spice or worms?
Sure
Thanks

Dunc was truly the most uninspired imagining of Dune, no imagination or effort was put into it whatsoever, it was a soulless cash grab.
This is the final ranking
your opinion is bad
It isn't opinion it is fact, your vague notions of a path already fully known to me do not interest me in the slightest
I've no idea why people regarding the miniseries so highly. My only guess is they watched it when it came out and haven't watched it since.
Even based Alia is trying not to laugh during this scene at how bad the acting is.
?si=cAGxcr5j_AFmqsa2
I remember watching as a little guy and thinking, ‘it sure would be nice to see Chani’s breasts’.
Then I was like, ‘whoa! she took her breasts out’.
And finally it was, ‘I regret seeing Chani’s sad pancake breasts’.
leftmost blue guy forgot to do the tien shinhan ultimate attack pose
best list there's going to be
plus after lynch, the dune 1 and 2 games.
then brokeback mountain, moulin rouge, venom 2 and morbius, and then right at the bottom, villaderp's grey/brown borefest
>Dunc was truly the most uninspired imagining of Dune, no imagination or effort was put into it whatsoever, it was a soulless cash grab.
irrefutably true.
proper good ranking

This HAS to be bait.
Read the tent scene in the book and compare it to the version in Dunc and tell me which is better. And that's only one scene. There's also the Harkonnens invasion on Arrakeen and the Sardukar scene.
>Read the tent scene in the book and compare it to the version in Dunc and tell me which is better.
The one that provides deeper insight into the character's perspective better than the wooden acting of the flick.
>There's also the Harkonnens invasion on Arrakeen
Putting aside how drawl and artificial Arrakeen itself was the invasion had no impact or even felt all that meaningful, just felt like any other "Bad guys are here!" scene from any Marvel film released in the last decade.
There was no sense of momentum of the betrayal, no sudden twist of the knife, it was boring, played out before the scene even began.
>and the Sardukar scene.
Meaningless window dressing that achieved nothing other than "Oh, coooooooool!"
>The one that provides deeper insight into the character's perspective better than the wooden acting of the flick
>The spice is giving me space autism and I won't hug my crying mother because I'm now space autistic
The Harkonnens just walk in during the invasion scene and in the chapter after it they talk about a slight bombardment. Then the Sardukar comes in and he's very angry! Great scene.
>The spice is giving me space autism and I won't hug my crying mother because I'm now space autistic
Despite making it absurd, yes, true. None of which was presented well in film.
The movie barely scratches the importance of Paul being distinctly inhuman.
>The Harkonnens just walk in during the invasion scene and in the chapter after it they talk about a slight bombardment. Then the Sardukar comes in and he's very angry! Great scene.
Instead we get all the focus on the epic battle and barely any focus on what matters.
Dune is a story about humans and their environment and how the two interact it was never intended to be your badass sci-fi schlock
To add to this, the Baron's character was entirely mutilated, making them inhuman looking monsters was missing the point so hard I have no idea how or why they thought of handling them like that and I struggled to take them seriously when they were so cartoonishly villainous in a story that otherwise takes characters extremely seriously.
And you didn't think the Baron in the book was cartoonist when the Baron and Piter have a comedy double act together or when he talks about having to give up Pauls bussy or drugging and fricking younger guys that remind him of Paul?
Cartoonish*
No I didn't think a human and a genetically enhanced human talking about raping or idealising raping the son of their rival was cartoonish it all, it was very very human and very evil in the strictest sense of the word.
'Monster in human clothing' suits the Baron very well but the movie apparently decided that was too subtle I guess, why bother with the dialogue and characterization when you can just make him look like an evil alien?
Why bother exploring what makes the Baron and Piter such a dangerous rival when you can just make them look like Saturday morning cartoon villains and have them show up when bad thing happens?
The Barons suspensers always made him cartoonist to me in the book. Always threatening to kill Piter and Piter breaking his own conditioning so he was a suspected threat to the Baron always gave off a "will they, won't they" murder angle that was almost comedic.
Different anon but I agree with
's take. The Lynch movie makes him out to be a downie acting on every perverse impulse and in DUNC he has no character besides I am...le TRUMP METAPHOR ORANGE MAN BAD! Only the TV mini-series did the character justice. The Baron's a man of SUBTLETY. Yes, he's grotesquely fat, yes, he likes little boys, but he's not slobbering with his dick out screaming for bussy like a Cinemaphile autist with no self-awareness. He's the head of a great house, and the wealthiest one at that. House Harkonnen was given the rights to Arrakis in the first place because the Baron was known to be ruthlessly efficient. No one in the power structure of the empire personally likes the emperor but they're all kind of afraid of him because he knows how to play the game. There's several points in the book where there's internal dialogue of him going (paraphrasing)
>I will remember this moment. I will not act on this now but I will remember this moment and when the time comes...
So the Baron, even though he's a gay bloated pedarest, actually (and ironically) fulfills the Bene Gesserit's basic test of the gom jabbar: instead of lashing out like a human-animal would, he bides his time and expresses restraint and self-control. He's dangerous precisely because of these cruel hunter-predator qualities, not because he's a shrieking campy cartoon villain.
>Only the TV mini-series did the character justice.
He was the worst and most over the top of them all. He even breaks the fourth wall and talks to the audience after the poison attempt. I liked his look though, he seemed most like the Baron out of the three. The internal monologues are fine in the book but not even the Lynch version, which had so many monologues, gave him an internal monologue so every version of him is as cartoony as the last.
>He even breaks the fourth wall and talks to the audience after the poison attempt.
You kidding? That was the best part.
>*floats in ur path*
>*stares directly at the camera*
>*begins an aside in Shakespearian iambic pentameter*
It's very in-character for the Baron and the operatic nature of the empire.
This is why I don't understand it. People don't like Villeneuves version for being too cartoon yet people like that scene which to me is a thousand times worse than anything else including the flying and spinning Baron in Lynchs version. He's either a cartoon villain or a CARTOON VILLAIN. I still like the character regardless.
Because that isn't cartoonish it is theatrical, there's a difference
You're entitled to your own opinion on whether or not the adaptations portrayals of the Baron are cartoonish, and you're entitled to your own opinion of whether or not the character of the Baron is cartoonishly villainous, but you haven't refuted a single point I've brought up
on why the Baron ISN'T a cartoon villain.
As you have yet to establish why he IS a cartoon villain when your only point has been that he FEELS like a cartoon villain to you because of the rivalry between himself and Piter
You're confusing me with the ESL anon who thinks the Baron's a cartoon villain. I'm
, I don't think the Baron's cartoonish at all, I think he's probably the most fleshed out character in the series.
Oh sorry I am running on fumes

>People don't like Villeneuves version for being too cartoon
I didn’t like it for being boring as frick and having characters act out of character, showing that Villeneuve completely misunderstood the books.
I'm sorry about your aphantasia, must be tough being an NPC.
Dunc is a movie about Dune for people who would otherwise not enjoy Dune

Sorry but DUNC is a miss, they fricked up.

Cinemaphile is gone
Go see Mars Express, I just saw it and its kino.
It makes your forget about the disaster that is DUNC.

Yea, everything in it is soul, I unironically expected nothing out of it, even in France nobody talks about it, but its pure kino.
And no, it is not a white women with a black man, they are coworkers and the dude is a spaniard.
I liked Dunc. Tim and Zendaya can’t act but the rest was fine.

Nah, sorry Mr. Penis Willynew, I will not watch your shitty movie.
>>anus worms
They should have made the bristles blue so that the the mouth looks like a blue iris, thus highlighting the worms' relationship with the spice (and also making it look less like a gaping anus). Huge wasted opportunity.
