And even that's on a scale, because there's a ton of problems still. Theming it as a stage production more obviously in Children was at least showing a better understanding of needing to find a way to make monologs work in live action.
Does Dave Bautista’s character ever do anything other than stand around and report to the Baron? I though he was going to be a ‘Darth Vader-esque’ character and chase down Paul. And from my understanding, in the sequel, his brother(who was played by Sting in the older movie) is going to be the main antagonist.
Rabban only gets one scene in the book. He does a lot of stuff in background, but it's all "offscreen." I haven't seen much indication the movie will give him more screentime, though he will probably get one or two fight scenes.

yeah that's why the fremen doubted him. the story wouldn't work if Paul looks like virile man like Austin Butler or Jacob Elordi
Typical Villeneuve
He's a slightly worse version of JJ Abrams, great at capturing a look and feel, no understanding of how story and characters work, no respect for source material
was pretty boring and grey. the ending was good i think but tbh i forget anything thatd happened i remember thinking well now i want to know what happens. but i forget already
look in the archives, we've been over this a million times
it handles most of the major plot beats well, has a few good-to-very-good scenes, but suffers from a lack of depth while simultaneously rushing from beat to beat (in other words, it fails to engage with Dune's philosophical, historical, and intertextual content), from Current Year hamstringing, from half the costuming being awful, from unfitting brutalist emptiness, and from an insistence on dark monochrome ugliness
contrast the top shot from Dunc with the bottom from Lawrence of Arabia
I wish they had a sex scene
Imagine the smell
I bet it would be amazing
the spice must flow
Last 30 minutes of the film was too dark. I couldn’t see anything.
The 2000 miniseries is objectively the best, most faithful adaptation.
Also, traps are gay.

Hey Leto, wanna go catch a movie after school or something?
I remember I liked it more on my second watch than my first
It's kind of boring, especially visually even though some shots can be arresting.

I thought it insisted on itself
Great film let down by its austere and minimalistic set and costume designs
Timothy Chalomet was a terrible choice for Paul. Took me out of the movie because he's such a spindly poofy haired weakling.

Or he could have not been a spindly homosexual. That's why Kyle McLaughlin's Paul is superior.
So you don't understand the story, just like how lynch don't understand that weirding way is not a gadget and ending the movie with rain on arrakis
Paul was 15 in dune moron bro
Boring souless piece of shat

Boring trash and didn't need to be two movies. The Lynch one mogs it hard.

villeneueve is pure style over substance
The suits are really boring in both movies, they should look like desert clothes.
AI prompt gay giving "creative" advice. Keep it in the general.
Zzzzz

Talentless shit.
