This looks so great. I love that they are focusing on the prophecy and all that entails.

    This looks glorious. Can’t wait to watch this at an odd time at the cinemas so it’s empty

      I can see that. I can’t say I despised it, but I was a little disappointed. What didn’t you like?

      For me, I thought Denis Villeneuve could have added more emotional weight to the story. Overall I liked the movie. If I see it in a DVD bin I’ll probably pick it up, but I’m not going out of my way to watch Part 1 again.

    I’m looking forward to it.

    I admit I was a tad disappointed with the 1st Dune movie. It wasn’t bad by any means, but I felt Denis Villeneuve didn’t quit communicate Paul’s plight enough, and, as much as I like Zendaya as an actress, I don’t think she was the best choice for Chani.

    Then again, I realize Dune is a difficult book to adapt to a movie.

    But I’ve enjoyed other work by Denis Villenueuve so I’m suspecting Part 1 was just a setup for Part 2 and the 2 parts together make a satisfactory story.

    I loved part 1, it was such a refreshing movie in terms of storytelling, writing, cinematography. Super excited for part 2

      Part one was the most cliche movie I’ve seen. Bad guys are bad, good guys are good, kid is the chosen one, parents get killed. Hopefully part 2 will be better.
