It's ironic because Dune, very, very strongly influenced Star Wars.
Quote from: The Cruentus on Yesterday at 05:39:33 PMI liked the original 1084 Dune but that movie did veer from the source material a bit, the whole point of the Messiah thing was to deconstruct it and show how bad it was for everyone, instead the 1984 movie played the trope straight instead and made Paul and the Freman more heroic with no jihad.
These new movies have been good as well and actually kept the deconstruction of the messiah/prophecy that the book did.
I liked the baroque look of the '84 film. And also the extra weirdness Lynch brought to the table. But yeah, Villeneuve's version is a much more faithful adaption of the book.

General Film/TV Discussion / Re: Tomb Raider (reboot)
Last post by The Cruentus - Yesterday at 06:15:51 PMI wonder how many reboots there are going to be. I did really like the first game of the survival trilogy, but I heard the other two tended to put too much emphasis on Lara killing folks instead of being a tomb raider
