A thread about the Denis Villeneuve-helmed reboot of DUNE

Saw the first film on Netflix a couple of days ago. Initial thought is this would've annoyed me if there was no sequel. It literally fucking stops.

Will watch the followup if it's still playing somewhere. Imagine waiting years for this. Not me mate

The music was very funny when the subs were trying to convey..

Low tense music
Tense music
Dramatic music
Loud dramatic music
Yodelling

Now forget but I wanted to make a poll on these

amazing issue to take with a movie that has sequels baked in but yeah ok

👍

The music in the first film is probably the closest I can think of to a film using the score as pure sound effects.

eraserhead is the original dune the movie

what we need is prequels

“i don't like sand. it's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere”

I finally finished this and was surprised that Feyd was not also a skarsgard, because the actor was doing a pretty good skarsgard impression, and made me wish Jessie Armstrong had adapted Dune as the next season of Succession.
Also, House Skarsgard sounds like a credible Dune faction.
