That actually looks incredibly good. What a cast.

reply

It really does look good!

And I was really impressed by the sheer volume of big names in the casting.

I must admit I surprised that the latest trailer seemed to favour Chani’s perspective at the start of it but I was not bothered by it.

I’m excited to see this.

I saw Zendaya almost immediately and had to turn it off. Not a fan of Denis Villeneuve , either. I'll just read the novel again.

He's a racist.

Since when skin color automatically turns one into a good actor?

reply

Why is Hollywood giving her such roles? She cannot act, she has no screen presence, she is not attractive. But she keeps getting these relatively big roles. She can dance. Dancing probably not going to help in Dune.

reply

She is an amazing actress. She is barely even recognizable when she is in character as MJ in the spiderman movies and looks great here too, playing a completely different character.

reply

LOL She was laughably bad in those films.

reply

I think she was great.. I have good taste and yours clearly sucks, ergo I win. Goodnight.

reply

She was terrible. Not to mention boring. She has no charisma whatsoever. I want to know how she is getting these roles. Is she screwing someone? Does she have compromising information about someone very high up? It's not her acting talent, that's for sure. She is tall and can dance. About it.

reply

People will judge by their wallets. You saying she sucks means nothing in the end, only fuels others in Hollywood to give her more roles. It's haters like you that give these folks more power, they never learn.

ie: You got pride parades etc. because of all the hate that gives them more meaning. BLM getting streets named after them and painted on, etc.

It's almost like you don't know types of folks like you are causing these more worsening outcomes.

reply

That makes no sense.

Limited sensibility

Her doped out teenager was pretty authentic though. :)

reply

Looks boring for such a big/grand production. Nothing about it grabs me.

this guy sums it up for me:

Something just nags at me – it doesn't feel exotic enough. Or weird enough. This is Game of Thrones Dune.
The book has this sixties mysticism — as if the entire universe has been warped by spice.

Good. No weird LSD hallucinations.

reply

BUT THE SPICE MUST FLOW!

reply

Yeah, whatever movie that guy has in mind would definitely suck. No accounting for taste.

reply

Paul's having morning wood again and will make war over a girl. Typical. I'm hoping they make a game from this movie as it's reviving the franchise.

reply

Looks great.

reply

It looks big enough, but not dark enough. Looks like an Avengers/Justice league baby, very clean-cut. Hopefully I'm wrong and that's just the trailer. Lynch's version, as camp and lacking as it was, caught that atmosphere.

reply

Disneys Dune?

reply

Sort of. Hopefully, they caught the story right, because the background of the Dune mythos is as relevant today as the day Herbert wrote it.

reply

I loved the novel and am looking forward to this very much, but have serious doubts about whether this film will do well. This overlong trailer is not going to convert many people. While there is a ready-made audience, they need to net in non-fans to make money and guarantee a sequel, and this isn’t going to do it,

I also found it odd that Rebecca Ferguson, who plays essentially the second lead, barely appears. While I do appreciate that Zendaya is a big name and they want to use her to market the movie, this was a strange choice as Ferguson will be central to some of the film’s biggest scenes.

Meh
