You're joking, but...

I'm old enough to actually remember that the David Lunch version had a HUGE amount of marketing. The first time I ever personally heard of Dune at all was seeing the action figures at Toys R Us

I would have to check, but I prolly still got all three issues of the Dune movie comic Marvel put out

Plus, if you're into computer games, the Command and Conquer RTS games were an outgrowth of the Dune 2 game. The "Tiberium" harvesters in C&C were based on the Spice harvesters in the Dune game.

I think it's the over enforcing of a female lead down our throats while emasculating men or black men in particular is what poisons these films.

James Cameron and Ridley Scott did the best job and creating female leads. Women are not good at directing female movies because their high emotions and estrogen levels blind them. You can easily create a strong female lead with a great supporting cast. (Terminator and Aliens)

Sure, let's take Dune away from a top 3 director alive and turn it over to theme park feminazi agenda Disney. That'll work!:heh:
I literally shuddered at the thought of what Disney would do to Dune

Motherfukkers basically destroyed 30+ years of Star Wars lore in order to make the shyt more LBGTQ/Feminist friendly in a universe where that shyt is not even a fukking thing

How you fail an exam you had the answers to??? An open book exam too!

Question: What do we do AFTER Return of the Jedi :jbhmm:

Answer: Well there's a fukkton of books after Return of the Jedi...the Jedi temple gets rebuilt, Luke becomes super powerful, Leia and Hans kids become... :patrice:

I'm guessing you're speaking from the perspective of the depth of story in the books...because in no way is any version of Dune in film matriarchal. It's always been Paul-as-messiah as the focus.

Yup I'm speaking about the books even though Jessica, the reverend mother and the bene gessirit had a prominent presence in the film.

MOADDIB
plus was part of the last stage name i just changed from in:

god emperor ; christ heir


fukk disney,..they would fukk this up royally even more than star wars and droids combined.
plus they have no model that made money to draw from or bite from. so they would easily fukk dune up.

I'm not even part of the fandom like that, but that pissed me off so bad....

all that lore and history packed into the extended universe.

they just disregarded it. 'sorry, that never happened. :troll:"

disney better hope feige's whole whatever in scope becomes their whole direction.
if not, and hopefully feige stays around.
yet if feige leaves.
you can be sure disney will go right back to the trash they were before they figured out how to steal kimba, i mean simba. i mean kimba,..i mean simba.
or just put a death in all their films and call them edgy or adult by proxy.

fukk that bicepless mouse.

their death in the family gimmick is a huff take on transformers the movie.
while, and still is nowhere near transformers the movie in opening comparison.

I have no interest in Dune

But after what Denis did with Blade Runner 2049, I'll follow him anywhere he wants to take me.
