I thought the first installment looked cheap and featureless, like a videogame. The castle was just long corridors of nothing, same with the courtyards. The visions of life and installations on another planet was so boring.
One of the reasons I liked the original Dino De Laurentis productions was how well it was envisioned - but the problem with that to me was the Harkonnens should have been toned down, not exaggerated to the point of disgustingness, even if that is they way they were written into the book ( which I read as a kid ).
The scenery in that movie and the envisioning was way superior to this new series.
Over the years I have gone from a real fan of Dune, and then having read several of the sequels and gone through college, the Dune story became to me more of a fantasy-like series like Lord of the Rings with more of a Sci-Fi feel, but still fantasy which I was pulling away from toward hard Sci-Fi. I remember the book pleasantly, but I don't have the nostalgia I used to for it.
Other books and short stories by Frank Herbert were better.
I thought that only the first few Dune books were decent
Where it all went in the latter half of the saga is not something I was fond of - not just the direction, but also the writing.
Haha, what? You immediately resorted to insults? What are a joke.
Admit it, you pirate movies just like everyone else, you just think people would believe your absurd claim. If you are this invested in movies, then you have pirated movies in more than one way before.
You know - there are also plenty of free streaming sites - that, of course, is also illegal.
Also, if you have an adblock on your browser, you are stealing revenue from various websites - while technically not illegal, many would argue that it's immoral.
Then again, as far as morality is concerned, hollywood is busy with social engineering - all of that trans/lgbtq/POC/whites-are-evil is a part of that. Meanwhile, big pharma funds 75 percent of all ad content on TV, and even bigger percentage of news content - big pharma also owns FDA which was originally supposed to regulate big pharma.
So, how moral are you in this crappy environment, I wonder?
Hahah!! Is this for real? This guy just blocked me because I pointed out there's no way he hasn't pirated movies before?
If you think about it, due to the things he has commented in here, he seems twice as old as me, that means he has had at least 10-15 additional years or more to commit piracy of some sort when compared to myself .
What an hypocrite 🤣
