Want to know what film's fucking great?

Dune. Shit acting but it's still a great story.

David Lynch

Too bad the rest of the books suck, Frank Herbert only had one good story in him, and that was Dune, the rest is shitty unfocused filler

Yeah I like it too.

dunno whos idea it was to put Sting in the movie, talk about miscast

Post by **reefsurfer** » Sat Mar 11, 2006 10:39 am

I think Sting did a great job.
Good movie, havent seen in it in 10 years or so though...

God Emperor of Dune is somewhat interesting, but the rest are shit, admit it

Would have thought you'd be more into something like Brokeback Mountain.

The book was a fine piece of work, I will say that. Maybe i'll rent the movie this weekend to see what you gaping shit-apes are simmering about.

no fuck u....

the quality drops off a bit in the last two books, heretics and chapterhouse, mostly because they're less focussed and because the bene gesserit don't make such interesting characters (because they're too much like vulcans)

if you want real shit, try brian herbert and kevin anderson's butlerian jihad, machine crusade etc. they really *are* shit

BADUM-TISH!!

btw speaking of dune - has anyone seen the alan smithee version? i just acquired it to see what's what and it's just a mangled version of the lynch movie with some extra scenes/dialogue and a cheesy prologue with an annoying voiceover

Post by **duffman91** » Mon Mar 13, 2006 8:19 pm

I prefer the sci-fi channel's 5 hour rendition http://imdb.com/title/tt0142032/.

Post by **seremtan** » Mon Mar 13, 2006 9:58 pm

hmmmm.... it was closer to the book, but lacked the style of the lynch movie, was poorly designed, and some of the casting decisions were dubious to say the least, especially jessica, hawat, yueh, gurney, duke leto, stilgar... erm.... pretty much everyone except paul and chani (whose name they kept mispronouncing)

children of dune on the other hand was very good...

only saw a bit of that tv series thing, and it was some of the worst tv i've ever fucking seen. that feckless arsehole playing gurney halleck was the acting equivalent of in-flight cutlery.
