I agree with the author of the article...this book needs to be brought forth to the big screen the proper way...and technologically speaking, we now have the capabilities to pull it off...

But I'm not so sure about Peter Berg directing...has anyone seen The Kingdom? How was it?

It's had a film and a tv series. Do we need another version? I liked the book and didn't mind the Lynch film.
But is it too dense for a single film?

I think so. It is something that definitely needs an epic treatment. I don't think it is something you can pull off in a 2 hour film. I didn't mind the Lynch film or the Sci-Fi channel's mini-series...they both had their strengths, but were also a bit off as well.

Dune is one of those books, its either done right, or else don't bother. If they do another, I wouldn't mind, its not like there exists a definitive adaptation of the book.

I absoloutely hated the lynch version. What was he thinking when he made the "weirding module guns". I think the best part of the film was sting as feyd. I loved the mini-series dune and children of dune. I think alec newman was awesome as paul atreides. I'm actually reading sandworms of dune as i type this. I think sci-fi was on the right track when they made a 6 hour mini-series for each book. The books have way to much content to put into one movie. And if it was successful you'd have to try and make the other installments (aka. god emperor of dune and heretics of dune) and with how weird those books are i think you would lose a mainstream audience.

I liked it...that might not help you much. ;)
The special effects, costumes, and settings are a little dodgy. But overall, it is very true to the book, leaving out some minor things and taking some minor liberties. I think the way Paul Atreides was portrayed at first was a bit off, but later in the series and later with the Children of Dune mini-series it is spot on.
You can get the mini-series for less than $10 now, so definitely worth checking out. Sci-fi channel's Children of Dune mini-series was superior and much improved on their efforts with Dune...so that is also worth checking out.

Yeah, i know you can get the "dune: special edition" for $10 (i'm talking about the mini-series of course). I'm not sure about children of dune. But your right about the special effects and all. It was made by sci-fi channel so it's not like they had tons of money to put into special effects. What they did put their money into was good actors so that the movie would sell the message and spirit of the books to an audience. I thought Ian McNeice was perfect as vladimir harkonnen. I know in children of dune they had to recast the roles of lady jessica, duncan idhao, stilgar. I preferred dune's lady jessica over the "borg queen" lady jessica of children of dune, I liked children of dune's duncan idaho, and dune's stilgar over the children of dune stilgar (i hope everyone's still with me :))
Gates, when you get those dvd's let me know what you think.

They keep pumping out those books like once a year. I confess to not reading any, but a friend of mine who is a Dune fan, and has read all of them, tells me Frank Herbert must be rolling in his grave every time another book is released.
I just read up on two new novels Hunters of Dune and Sandworms of Dune which take place after Chapterhouse Dune and effectively end the original series. Curious as to what the fans think about those two. I never got past Children of Dune and probably never will.

The prequel stuff...no, not necessary. As you probably know...Chapterhouse: Dune ended with kind of a cliffhanger and Frank was going to write a concluding Dune 7, but unfortunately, he died before starting to write it. Supposedly he left an outline, so Brian and Kevin were working off of that to conclude the series...with two books instead of one.
I must admit, I was curious since it was building off Frank's ideas...but they clearly steered it more towards their own stuff and it falls flat and is unsatisfying. Not at all how I would envision the conclusion.
I have never liked Kevin's works...I did not like his Jedi Academy Trilogy either.

Yeah, tossing and turning in his grave for sure.
If you liked Children of Dune, I think God Emperor of Dune is the pinnacle of the series. Heretics of Dune is probably the weakest, but Chapterhouse: Dune was a step back in the right direction.

Quote from: Fitzley on Oct 24, 2007, 05:12:53 AMMy friend told me the exact same thing. I have a copy of God Emperor of Dune but its been quite a while since I read the first three books. If I read it, I would feel obliged to read the first three again to re-entrench myself into the Dune lore. It's unfortunate but in the past couple of years I've found it really hard to give books a dedicated read. I usually read a few chapters, then read a few more like four months later. One day I'll read all the Dune books in the original series, even the poor final two that were recently released just cause I'm a completest.

CONFIRMED: Peter Berg Will Direct 'Dune'
Published by Josh Horowitz on Friday, December 21, 2007 at 4:59 pm.
Ladies and gentlemen, the next huge sci-fi franchise has a director. During an interview with "The Kingdom" director Peter Berg, he confirmed the rumor that "Dune" is coming and that he's the one that will helm it. Calling the plans for him to direct "a done deal," Berg told me that "if it weren't for the writer's strike, we'd be in it right now."
Berg says that while there's no script yet, they have a list of writers they plan to go out to once the strike settles. The helmer called himself "a huge fan of the book" and when asked about the scale of the film, he simply replied, "big big big."
As any fan of the Frank Herbert classic knows, "Dune" received the big screen treatment once before in a divisive David Lynch film. Berg said that while he's "a big fan of Lynch," he believes "that interpretation has left the door wide open for a remake."

To this day, I still pine for the lost Dune. That is, the one with Giger on board doing designs, and directed by Ridley Scott.
Of course, if that had happened, we wouldn't have Blade Runner, so I guess I'm better off the way things are. :)

When I first saw Dune, I didn't have the faintest idea what it was about. Spice and worms and Christ knows what. Years later I read the book, loved it and could appreciate the film more.
That said - it's ripe for a proper screen adaption.

It's a Great David Lynch movie; but it's a long way away from what a definitive version of 'Dune' for the big screen should be. I'm thinking it should be something along the lines of Jackson's 'The Lord of the Rings' Trilogy where just about all the right beats are present in terms of design, dialogue, editing and so on... There's very little in terms of presentation with those 3 movies that needs amendment.
Lynch's 'Dune' was a more personal movie - like just about all of Lynch's movies (and television). His personal touch is great when it's using completely original content - there's nothing quite like it - but it's the kind of style that's not in tempo when he is relying on well known source material like 'Dune'.
Looking forward to seeing this new version happen.

Same. I think I watched it with my Dad a long time ago because it Patrick Stewart in it and I've been a Trekkie since birth. I picked up the book on a whim about 6 years back and just f**king loved it. Probably my favorite sci-fi book so far. I watched Lynch's and managed to enjoy it more because of the book. I did struggle through the Sci-Fi Channel mini-series sequel though. I never read any of the other books. I remember Vulhalla saying they were terrible.
Now this new I'm pretty excited about. I really enjoyed Arrival and Blade Runner is looking promising.

Would have been really interesting to see Ridley Scott's take on Dune especially after seeing all those amazing desert landscape shots in The Martian and Prometheus.
After directing Alien, Scott actually worked on a Dune film for De Laurentiis for approximately 7 months before he bailed-out due to his elder brother's untimely death. Only got as far as the first draft though. I think he wanted to split-up the story into 2 separate films as well. He had also reputedly retained Giger as a production illustrator from Jodorowsky's failed attempt.

The screenwriter has said he wanted to insert an incestuous relationship between Paul and his mother. I wonder how Ridley would have responded to that. :laugh:

Reportedly, Giger was an admirer of David Lynch (he thought "Eraserhead" was closer to his sensibilities than his own movies) and wanted to work with him on the next attempt, but Lynch thought Giger's style was too popular at the time and wanted to go for something fresh.
So, yeah, Giger and Lynch were very close to having worked together :).

Ridley seemed ok with his first draft, don't know if that particular bit of artistic license was added in yet? But it wouldn't have surprised me if Ridley wanted to veer wildly away from the book like he later did with Blade Runner/Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.
All I can find is:
"In a seven month period Rudolph Wurlitzer came up with a first draft of the script which I felt was a decent distillation of Frank Herbert's book." - Ridley Scott

Interesting, yeah I can imagine Giger admired Lynch for his surrealist style. Giger would have been ideal for designing everything related to the Harkonnens and creatures such as the worms and navigators.

Villeneuve is really great at directing actors. Also very good at drama and thrillers. But I haven't seen much in the way of "world building" from him yet. Blade Runner 2049 so far looks more like a sequel to that Total Recall reboot from a few years back rather than a sequel to the film that set the bar for science-fiction production design 35 years ago.
And Dune is really about the world.

Yeah, they also take place in contemporary settings, so no real need for designing new cultures, architecture, vehicles, fashions etc.
Dune is going to be a bitch though. It's so dense and complex. It really needs to be split up into two or three movies or risk ending up getting distilled to such an extent that those who haven't read the book would be completely lost. Like what happened to Lynch's version.

Lynch made his movie in 1984 which was ... suicidal at that time. They didn't have enough money for it. Special effect looked cheap. Moreover, Lynch said it was a nightmare. He didn't have final cut and creative freedom.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdNdqBdLf5I (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdNdqBdLf5I)
But you are right, Dune is going to be a bitch. It's bloody complex. They need at least 200 million to make it or even more. And the pressures's gonna be immense but Denis will deal with it. I hope.
Back in time Ridley Scott was going to be the original director of Dune but due to his brother's death he left the project and ... directed Blade Runner. Now Denis is making Blade Runner sequel and Dune. The funny thing is that maybe without Jodorowsky's unfinished Dune we might not have had Alien. Dan O'Bannon, who was special effects supervisor on Dune, was inspired by Giger's work. Strange world.

Denis Villeneuve:
http://variety.com/2017/film/news/blade-runner-2049-denis-villeneuve-dune-details-1201984308/
QuoteI was able to do 'Blade Runner' thinking I would do nothing after, because there was a rhythm in the past few years that was very exciting and I learned a lot as a filmmaker. But I got slowly a bit more and more tired physically. And as I was doing 'Blade Runner,' which was a very long shoot, I remember thinking, 'That might be my last movie. I'm going to bed for like three years.' Now that I'm editing, I'm finding back my energy. And since I was 12 years old there was a book I read, which is 'Dune,' which is my favorite book, with '1984.' After 'Prisoners,' the producer of Alcon asked me what I would like to do next. I said, 'Dune,' spontaneously, that if anyone could get me the rights for 'Dune' — and I knew it was very difficult to get those rights. For me it was just a dream, and I guess I'm lucky that Mary Parent from Legendary got the rights and offered it to me. I can't say no to that. I have images that I am haunted by for 35 years. I will not say no to that. That's going to be the project of my life.

Anyway, i think were in for a far more grounded approach on the subject this time, and hiring Roth seems to be in line with that.

The book is so dense. You could make A TRILOGY from that book.
That's the problem with the David Lynch movie. It so needed more time. Lynch cut so many scenes. Originally it was an Epic of 4 HOURS of screentime.

Not hard to visualise as a trilogy. Properly speaking, the book itself is 3 distinct parts: 'Dune', 'Muad'dib' and 'The Prophet' - all contained within a single cover. 'Dune' is 3 books in 1.

I think it can be done in one, it just needs to get a close to three hour run time. The one script draft I read of a recent attempt managed to get all the pieces in place and explain things well enough.
And it looks like Denis has already gotten images on that level in the 2049 trailer.

I agree. Roger Deakins is a legend but he is a little overrated. His last good movie was SKYFALL.

Oh, hell. Lynch's 'Dune' is a stylish wonder and great to watch but I never really felt it adequately represented in a visual sense what appears in the book. It's like Lynch stamped his visual style - which is always f**king amazing whenever he applies it - but didn't consider whether or not it synchronised well with Herbert's vision.
I really hope Villeneuve can pull this off. Hell. A proper 'Dune' trilogy based on the original 3 part book - something like what Jackson did with 'The Lord of the Rings' - would be more than welcome.
The technology is now available to truly bring the book alive. Hell. Lynch's 'Dune' is amazing - for a movie that relies a lot on conventional compositing, suspended miniatures and perspective tricks. ...but a new version would need the story front and center and not just become another festival of CGI graphics.

Villeneuve is very old school. More like David Lynch in that regard. I doubt he could make a huge trilogy like Peter Jackson did. Jackson uses a lot of CGIs too. Villeneuve usually avoids CGIs.

I can see this Project going ahead. Scott at one point wanted to make 'Dune'. I can see this happening under the Scott Free banner, just like the new 'Blade Runner' movie. By the way, speaking of Villeneuve - and trilogies - is 'Blade Runner 2049' going to be part of a series of movies? Is that known yet or not..?

The sci-fi series were great. There were two of them which cover 3 books. I think the time for them has finally came around to be redone though.
Now I am actually a hard core fan though. I am 3 books away from having read all the combined original and expanded universe books.
As I understand, Brian Herbert has a new and much better strategy for making this series happen. He is going to have comic books and graphic novels made. He will do the original novel and also Dune:House Atreides as graphic novels, to be expanded upon with other novels. It should be some awesome stuff...

Not every Dune fan likes the expanded universe, but I for one love it, and it features a rich, rich tapestry of intrigue that spans millennia. It is also very visually oriented. The first few novels would easily play like Transformers films with the Cymeks and the synchronized worlds. It would work very well on screen I think, perhaps even better than the original Dune story itself.

Yea thats posible too of course.
I think Pauls fight with Jamis would make for a really good opener though. On the other hand it would be a nice arrangement to end both "parts" with a head-to-head combat.
I really wonder how they would handle the whole shapeshifter angle in a possible Messiah adaptation. Confusing stuff for the average movie goer there.

And neither Kyle MacLachlan.
And it would have been on SyFy, so doubly difficult. The first miniseries did the desert with piles of sand in front of backdrops. :laugh:

Ja, i vaguely remember their design choice and execution for the guild navigators uh...
Think Giger would definitely be a good direction for every designer who starts looking for inspiration for Leto Worm:

Especially that back view silhouette on the left side.
This one might be even better:

It actually looks like it could be inspired by the book. I doubt Giger read it though, but maybe someone told him about.

Although in all fairness to Giger, I think the only person on that project who actually read the book was Jodorowsky himself... according to one source, at least. He supposedly read through the whole thing in a single overnight sitting at a cafe or something.

But even that was kind of after the fact. When Jodorowsky originally told Michel Seydoux (the producer) he wanted to do Dune next, he hadn't actually read it yet. :laugh:

Villeneuve confirms that his Dune will be two films but says it won't be filmed concurrently like Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy. Problem is of course if the first one bombs badly (like 2049) we'll never get to see the second half.
Quote"Eric Roth wrote the first [#Dune] draft, and I worked on my side afterward. I have not had such fun on the creative side since Incendies! My wish would have been to make both films at the same time, but it will be too expensive. We will do them one at a time." - Denis Villeneuvehttps://twitter.com/DuneInfo/status/994663060223811585 (https://twitter.com/DuneInfo/status/994663060223811585)

One of the major complaints about 2049 was it's runtime. I don't think Villeneuve & Co. will be making that mistake again.
I like the idea of making two movies out of the first book despite the risk. The 1984 film was condensed to such an extent no-one who hasn't read the book really knew what was going on.
"Several of the characters in Dune are psychic, which puts them in the unique position of being able to understand what goes on in the movie" - New York Times
I wonder where they will end the first film though. Maybe with Paul & Jessica flying the ornithopter off into the sandstorm? Kind of a cliff-hanger ending.

At some point, all the hate and vitriol hurled at Brian Herbert becomes trite. It's as if fans keep perpetuating some consensus that was reached long ago by other fans. There's no originality of thought in the constant lambasting and it makes it difficult to read about the Dune topic with the incessant negativity.

There are some subtle inconsistencies between Brian's books and his father's series. For the life of me I can't recall them and they have very little impact on the overall story. When you have something so epic that spans so many novels, mistakes are bound to occur, but their negligible. The writing is a bit more simplistic too, but not by a vast margin. Some people just like to troll because that's what trolls do. I read almost all of the old and new series with 2 books left, and the young Herbert and Kevin J Anderson did a pretty decent job.

And I really hope for the "Star Wars for adults" mood, I hope to see a living world with a unique visual style. Dune really lends itself to it...

Quote from: Perfect-Organism on Jul 17, 2018, 07:41:03 PMIt's pretty significant considering the evolved Facedancers were supposed to be the big baddies of the Heretics/Chapterhouse arc. Not sure if Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson were simply too stupid to understand what Frank Herbert wrote, or if they just didn't care, but they decided to disregard all that and just make the big bad enemies robots instead. It's hard to see how Frank Herbert's "notes" could've lead them this way though.Quote from: tleilaxu on Jul 15, 2018, 06:28:58 AMQuote from: frenchfries on Jul 13, 2018, 09:14:02 PMIt's not overwhelming, just dive in.

One would think so considering that it was the reason Peter Jackson filmed the LotR trilogy back to back (with post production spread out over the three year release window).
But reading between Villeneuve's lines, it's probably the studio that's scared stiff of filming two big movies simultaneously and then having it bomb hard like 2049 or the Lynch version.
But if the first film does well then it might be good since it would give the actor who plays Paul a couple of years to age like in the novel. Transitioning from a boy into a man he could theoretically do the first film with a bit of extra body weight (as a waterfat offworlder) and then rip himself to shreds for the second one (after living among the Fremen for years with their harsh life).

She probably will be since they say she will co-star with Chalemet who will play Paul.

Deakins exits Dune.
https://www.indiewire.com/2018/12/dune-denis-villeneuve-roger-deakins-part-ways-greig-fraser-cinematographer-1202025557/
QuoteOne of the most highly anticipated upcoming tentpoles officially has a cinematographer attached: Greig Fraser is set to work with Denis Villeneuve on his ambitious "Dune" remake. The "Arrival" director is planning a two-part movie. Variety's awards editor Kris Tapley broke the news, and IndieWire has confirmed the hiring with Fraser's representatives.
The "Dune" news is notable since it means Villeneuve won't be working with longtime collaborator Roger Deakins. Deakins has been a staple of Villeneuve's American film career, having shot "Prisoners," "Sicario," and "Blade Runner 2049." The cinematographer was Oscar nominated for all his DP efforts on Villeneuve-directed films, and he won the Oscar for Best Cinematography for his work on "2049."
Filming "Dune" is Greig Fraser, himself an Oscar nominee for his work on Garth Davis' directorial debut "Lion." Fraser's additional credits include "Mary Magdalene," "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story," "Foxcatcher," and "Zero Dark Thirty," for which he won the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Cinematography. Fraser's next release is Adam McKay's "Vice," in theaters this Christmas.

Huh, I thought it was just Eric Roth (with some input from Brian Herbert) who wrote the script?

QuoteDenis Villeneuve has tapped his frequent collaborator Joe Walker as the Dune editor. This marks the French-Canadian director's fourth collaboration with Walker in a row, after they've worked together on Sicario, Arrival, and Blade Runner 2049.
Dune has long been a passion project for Villeneuve, who co-wrote the script with Eric Roth and Jon Spaihts.

Roth's script was supposedly something like 400 pages long, so Spaihts may have been brought in to whip it into shape.

Could be, he was in both Prisoners and Enemy, IIRC.
Idaho didn't really have that huge a presence in the first book. He's mostly off mingling with the Fremen in the beginning and only appears much later to help Jessica and Paul escape. His gholas in the sequel and latter books have much more prominent roles though.

She's good in Spider-Man: Homecoming. I haven't seen her anything else but that. She was a Disney Channel actress for a long time. On her social media she always comes off as pretty entertaining but not sure how she'd do in a movie like this.
She's going to star in an HBO Drama series later this year so that will be a good indicator as to how she can handle the drama parts.

Roth's script was supposedly something like 400 pages long, so Spaihts may have been brought in to whip it into shape.
Sounds like it, according to this recent interview.
Quote from: Eric RothDune was a real challenge; Denis Villeneuve brought me on. I had done some little bits of stuff for him for Arrival, and we really love each other personally. I turned in a really long draft, which I think was pretty cumbersome to make within the budget. I think the ideas were great, and I think they used most of them, but that needed a good look. I think Denis has...brought in another writer to trim it out, and get back to the book in some respects, so I think it's exciting. The approach to it's pretty wonderful, and it could be a beautiful movie.

Lynch's film is fascinating in that it is a bad movie, and even worse adaptation, and absolutely fascinating to watch. Somehow it manages to completely miss the point of absolutely everything in the book, and yet make no sense at all unless you have read the book.
True. True.

Javier Bardem:
https://www.cinemablend.com/news/2467302/why-javier-bardem-is-excited-about-joining-denis-villeneuves-dune
QuoteThe most important thing is that I love Denis, since Prisoners. What a luxury! He asked me if I would ever be interested in being part of Dune. Are you kidding? How much do I have to pay? It's one of those blessings that you have in this amazing, blessed life that I happen to have: having a job that I love, and make a living with, and also work with people that I truly admire and respect, and I'm getting inspired by it. It's a lot.
I read the first three books, and, of course, I saw David Lynch's film. I'm going to be turning 50 on March 1st, so I saw David Lynch's film, which I loved. I remember the day I saw it in 1984, I think, and it was weird! And I loved it! It was big and weird, and those sandworms!

Yeah, Saudi Arabia has some amazing ergs. I once flew over their dune-sea, it's like flying over the middle of the Atlantic except instead of water waves it's just sand dunes as far as the eye can see in every direction up to the horizon. Jordan is much more rocky though.
Apparently there is also a huge sandstorm in Jordan as I type this.

Quote from: Josh BrolinI was contacted by certain people to watch my P's and Q's around revealing the setting and uniqueness of this epic film based on the Frank Herbert novel "Dune". Even though I was on my own travels and nowhere near the set, it was, indeed, in a desert. I am leaving Jordan tomorrow so I can't continue anyway. That said, it's almost always in my mind to post whatever the f**k I want as long as it doesn't impede on how well the story is told and the beauty and uniqueness with which it is being filmed.

Brolin is cool too of course, but a bit obvious for my taste. Like what about him for example:
Chalamet is damn near perfect. MacLachlan couldve done it again, but hes a tad too old now -__-
Rebecca Ferguson as Jessica is ok (i guess well see anyway). I have a hunch that i keep preferring Francesca Annis, she got something so reserved yet powerful in the Lynch version that always gives me creeps. Shes perfectly directed there too.
That Drogo guy plays Duncan? Thats a bit meh for me. But it doesnt matter.
Yea, i cant wait, obviously --

Not exactly Dune type scenery but it's probably because it's cheaper to film there. A Dollar can buy a lot more there and countries like Hungary often offer attractive incentives and rebates.

Stellan Skarsgard talks playing Baron Harkonnen:
http://collider.com/stellan-skarsgard-interview-chernobyl-dune/#dune
QuoteYou also signed on to play the villain in Dune. What made you want to be a part of that? Had you been a fan of the original film, or the novel?
SKARSGARD: No, I wasn't. I actually just recently read the novel, which is a very good novel. But I've been a fan of Denis Villeneuve for quite awhile. It's also a fun character to play. I don't have to shoot that many days, but I have to spend six to eight hours a day in make-up. That makes it really hard, but interesting.
What's it like to act through all of that?
SKARSGARD: If you work with good prosthetics people, the main thing that's important is that your eyes are free to express themselves, and also that the material you're working with makes it possible for you to physically express yourself, with your body.
What kind of villain is Baron Harkonnen, in this version of Dune?
SKARSGARD: He's a pure villain. He doesn't show any remorse, or any good sides. I usually don't like dividing the world into the good guys and bad guys because I think it's an illusion, since most of us have a little of both in us. But I would say that this is a bad, bad guy.
Is there a freedom in that, when you're playing a character where there really is no doubt about who he is?
SKARSGARD: It's a cartoonish way to look at somebody, but at the same time, he's very human, in some ways. His actions are just absolutely horrendous.
What do you think will most surprise fans about this particular take on the material?
SKARSGARD: I don't know. It's a very long novel, and it's really hard to compress into film because usually, it's short stories that are better to make films out of. So, some might be disappointed that some of their favorite things are no longer in the story, but I also think they will be fascinated by Villeneuve's way of visualizing that world that they have had in their mind for so long. And there are a lot of good actors that can be very pleasant to watch.

8 Hours a day in make-up? That's some heavy prosthetics work then. Tim Curry as Darkness in Legend level makeup.
The Baron was pretty much a bad, bad guy in the book as well. But he was also quite fallible and vulnerable at the same time.
I wonder what these "favorite things that are no longer in the story" are?

Gives me hope that they are feeling very optimistic about the film.
I am a bit worried about Jon Spaihts' involvement, but even still, color me very excited for the show.
I wonder if Dune could potentially become the next big thing post GOT. The source material is fantastic (I still have to read books 4-6, but I loved 1-3), the world is intriguing, and there is a lot of politicking and scheming and, of course, sandworms. It now sounds like WB's plans extend well beyond simply adapting the first book.

It's sounds like Spaith was only involved in trimming down the original script. Kinda the opposite of his role in Prometheus. His earlier Prometheus drafts had some good bits though.
Not so sure about Dune becoming the next GoT, it's probably a bit too "weird" for most mainstream audiences, but you never know. Most likely it will perform similar to the previous two Dune TV series'.
WB probably have big plans if the first movie does well. Take for example Duncan Idaho, he's barely in the first book so casting Jason Momoa (someone that's currently very hot in Hollywood) seems like a waste unless you're planning to delve into the sequels where he becomes a main character.

I don't need it to be uttered explicitly but for sure I'm hoping for some kind of (LSD)sequence depicting a vision of an army of religious fanatics cleansing the universe in merciless ways.
Might even work as a closing scene for Part One.
I admit this kind of portrayal could have been a bit problematic say 2-3 years ago with the IS peaking, its nonetheless a crucial part of the book.

Otherwise not only Pauls existential dilemma and the tragic nature of seeing but not being able to change the future would be diminished, but also the in essence fanatical motivation of his movement is in danger of being haloed, even heroised (which kinda though im sure unintentionally happened in Lynchs version).

I guess Dune: The Sisterhood will be very much set in Villeneuve's vision of the Dune universe with both him and Spaiths actively involved in the two productions.

I just hope the series isn't scuttled if Dune flops at the box office. I wonder if they'll wait until after the movie's release before they start shooting the series?

Probably in case of a Blade Runner 2049 situation, in case it doesn't make enough money for the studio to commit to funding the second half.
Though given that Dune: The Sisterhood has been greenlit, WB seems to have faith in the project. And spacing the films out a bit gives Chamalet a bit of time to grow, which makes sense with the couple year time jump in the book.

From what i can tell the guy seem to be a professionel concept artist/illustrator. Goes by 'Carlos NCT'.
He got some other great Dune stuff in his portfolio. I dig the balance between a more fanatasyesque approach that is kinda backed up by Herberts own insect metaphors for the vehicles and a technical/practical approach which i think DV, considering his other films and his general style, is mainly going for.

Mmm... I wonder if he didn't work on Dune then if he does this professionally. I remember the Harvester/Spice Factory being described as "buglike" in the book, "a large tan and blue beetle with multiple legs", just like his painting.
I thought they already wrapped? Secrets of Dune had another rumour a while back about filming the Caladan scenes in Greece. Don't think that actually happened though.

I guess its not impossible though the two last examples i posted seem to be uploaded recently. I doubt he would act that way if he was in fact attached to the project.
Anyway he seem to be more at home in the video game sector according to imdb:

Original or 2049? ;)
On a side note: I was watching the original Blade Runner yesterday and in the Batty meeting his maker scene i had the strangest feeling as if i was watching Lynchs Dune.
Think it was a mix of the whole thing/scene, the music the lighting the dialogue the acting (the manner of speaking) etc.
Well i dunno, it was quite vivid and it never occured to me before these films may tonally be closer than i thought --

Story was that Frank Herbert got the name "Harkonnen" from a Californian telephone directory. He thought it sounded suitably Soviet at the time and used it for the baddies in his book. Turned out that Harkonnen is in fact Finnish.
I wonder if we'll see Feyd-Rautha's arena fight on Giedi Prime in Villeneuve's film?

Stellan Skarsgard about working with Denis:
https://www.slashfilm.com/dune-details-stellan-skarsgard-denis-villeneuve/
QuoteI've always wanted to work with him partly because he's such a wonderful man, but also because he's a brilliant director. It's fun when you get one of those big sci-fi movies and you know it's going to be directed by a true filmmaker. It's not going to be directed by the studio. It seemed like they were giving him pretty free hands. And you have to, because his personal stamp on the film is paramount for the success of it.
What he's really good at is creating this strange atmosphere with his imagery and this cinematic poetry that is his trademark and that will add so much richness to the pretty simple story.

Kind of the opposite of Dune 1984 which was basically producer driven:
Quote from: David LynchI started selling out on Dune. Looking back, it's no one's fault but my own. I probably shouldn't have done that picture, but I saw tons and tons of possibilities for things I loved, and this was the structure to do them in. There was so much room to create a world. But I got strong indications from Raffaella and Dino De Laurentiis of what kind of film they expected, and I knew I didn't have final cut.

Quote from: Óscar Isaac via Entertainment Weekly"It's just a wholly, wholly different thing," said Isaac when EW asked how the movie compares to previous filmed takes on the material. "I couldn't imagine anyone more suited for the tone of the original Frank Herbert novels than Denis. There are some things that are — for lack of a better word — nightmarish about what you see... There's just this kind of brutalist element to it. It's shocking. It's scary. It's very visceral. And I know that definitely between Denis and myself and Chalamet and Rebecca Ferguson as the family unit, we really searched for the emotion of it. I'm beyond myself with excitement. I think it's good to feel cool, unique, and special."

Pretty sure Lynch was made at Giger over a misunderstanding, presuming that Giger had stolen elements of the Eraserhead baby when designing the chestburster (despite Giger having not yet seen Eraserhead). Giger, who was previously attached to Jodorowsky's Dune, attempted to connect with Lynch's production when it shifted to him and never recieved a response.

Will their wings flap?
Possibly, the previous leaked photo showed what appeared to be ball-bearing-type joints for the wings. Although I suppose they could simply be thrusters as well, and not use wings at all. But then it wouldn't really be an ornithopher.

I wonder if the ornithopters will have helmet-controlled weirding modules.
Have you ever considered taking up an extreme sport like base jumping, shark cage diving or big wave surfing at Nazaré?

Definitely inclined to think that the Ornithopters will have the proper flapping wings. Based on the ball bearing structure in the set pics, it appears that the wings will likely be CGI addition to the practical vehicle exterior.

Yeah, my guess will be 4 dragonfly type wings. Might also have practical wings for when the ornithopters are on the ground and shut down.
I guess the desert-tan coloured one will probably be Atreides or one of the existing Arrakis 'thopters, while the black 'thopter will probably be Harkonnen or Sardaukar.

Variety's box office predictors have listed Dune under "QUESTION MARKS"
Quote"Dune" (Warner Bros.)
Release date:
Dec. 18
What Looks Strong:
Director Denis Villeneuve ("Arrival," "Blade Runner 2049") has brought his unique eye to Frank Herbert's seminal 1965 sci-fi novel, and he's assembled a killer cast to do it: Timothée Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, Zendaya, Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, Rebecca Ferguson, Stellan Skarsgard and Jason Momoa.
Causes for Concern:
David Lynch's 1984 version of "Dune" starring Kyle MacLachlan has its admirers, but it was a box office and critical flop, suggesting that Herbert's complex and cerebral story isn't a great fit for a big budget cinematic treatment.
Verdict:
The risks here are high, but given Villeneuve's enviable track record with prestige sci-fi thus far, the rewards could be great.

Maybe, if the first film underperforms really hard, there's some kind of Plan B to stage the second one as a much more artsy type, LSD trip like, bloated chamber drama.
Mostly leaving out the real expensive stuff like everything involving worms fighting etc
This would be unfortunate of course, but at the same not that far away from the book, which consists 75% of people in rooms talking to each other about plans within plans anyway...
As a side effect this scenario would most likely give DV even more artistic freedom than under normal circumstances, where he is determined to juggle a production this size. An aspect that pretty much destroyed Lynchs motivation for the project almost entirely.

Quote from: Brian FH ClementI was in a work meeting today and got to see some promo/preview footage of Denis Villeneuve's Dune, and I am ON BOARD with it. I think it looks fantastic.
No finished effects in the footage I saw. Cinematography looks beautiful though.
Unfortunately she [Zendaya] was conspicuously absent from what we were shown!
Something else I'll mention re: the Dune footage we were shown: there were wide shots of a group of people I at first thought were members of the Spacing Guild, but then Rabban was among them so I think they were Harkonnens because they all had similar costumes and makeup
Yes briefly [saw Jason Momoa]! I can't say specifically but he looks different than people are used to.
We did [see worms]! I forgot to mention that.
As a follow-up re my opinion on new Dune based only on the footage I saw (since people are curious), I think this will blow people away the way LOTR did 20 years ago, the way Star Wars did 40 years ago. It's not Jodorowsky or Lynch, but maybe Villeneuve has filmed the unfilmable.
To be honest, it's not exactly how I pictured the universe of Dune when I first read the book (it never will be) but that's a good thing. I really like the look Villeneuve has created and I think it's going to be spectacular.
I'm not exaggerating when I say a lot of people will have goosebumps/tears when they see this movie (I might!). Heck, when they see the footage I saw they will.
I really didn't realize just how secret the whole Dune production has been until that tweet about seeing some footage completely blew up. Now I've been introduced to a super passionate Dune fanbase going bonkers for any info! (I'm just a guy in Canada working in the industry!)
We got no info on runtime. The only one of those characters we saw was Dr Kynes. The actor playing Kynes is not who you would expect!
The last comment has me a bit worried cause of that earlier gender swap rumour... Now compounded by this as well:

Doesn't seem like a big deal at first, but it kinda contradicts the book, which clearly portrays a society inspired by a feudalistic spiritual horizon and associatons of ideas with all its patriarchal implications.
Therefore affecting one of the central themes of the book, heck it even ends on the role of "the" woman in this type of social structure.

Yeah, the Fremen are kind of based-on and descended from the Bedouin and the Bedouin being Arabs are of course fiercely patriarchal.
Women do however still play an important part in Fremen society with their Sayyadinas and they are also great warriors just like the men, but I can't really see them virtually deifying a non-Sayyadina, half Fremen and half-offworld female.

All of the above said on top so to say, cause my post wasn't actually aimed at the Fremen society but at the (medieval) Feudalism based-on Faufreluche system of the galactic empire and the Great Houses.
Kynes in the book is the representative of the emperor himself in a highly official position. I doubt a woman would ever come near such an appointment. Sure there are the Bene Gesserit, but their role is more of a sect-like entity within the social order maximally providing consultancy work, but overall acting covertly (doesn't mean they are not powerful, obviously).
And even in the end, when Paul seemingly has become omnipotent, the Faufreluche kicks back in as he decides to marry the emperors daughter out of political considerations, therefore supposedly perpetuating the old regime.
So yeah, all this considered, i can hardly see them making Kynes a woman work in the sense of being faithful to these aspects of the book. Of course one could argue these are mere background details, but think of it: the whole vendetta aspect (Art of Kanly), the political system and the relationchips of the leaders among themselves (Emperor, Leto, the Baron etc), Arrakis as a fee given to Leto by the Emperor, therefore forcing him to go, the whole dynamic between Leto and Jessica caused by the marriage/concubine problematic - all this is derivational from the social order Herbert intentionally chose as the background for this story.
Tampering with this too much would make for some easily avoided, unnecessary inconsistencies, even more so in the light of this:

You're quite right about the Feudal society depicted in Dune, that aspect also makes gender swaps of major characters like Liet/Kynes iffy.

Some more comments about the script below:
Spoiler
- No weirding modules, but the weirding way is in it. - sorry Trouble
- Paul has met the Fremen and Chani, yes but only in the last 30 mins of script or so.
- Paul's vision of her [Chani] early on is in the script, yes.
- There are plenty of secret hand signals.
- About 130 [pages in script]. Which with credits I'd estimate to be about 2 hours 25 mins, give or take.
- Lynch levels of Caladan.
- Jason Momoa [Duncan Idaho] will be well served. More to do than Richard Jordan in Lynch's Dune.
- [Ends] after Paul & Jessica have met the Fremen by the end.
- Jamis duel towards end of script
- [Gom Jabbar] Like the novel, pretty early.
- Litany: Recited more than once.
- I thought they might have eliminated Mapes in order to streamline the script.
- He [Dr. Yueh] is in the film, played by Chen Chang.
- Feyd and the Emperor are mentioned, but not seen.
- Not mention of Irulan at all.
- Ends shortly after Jessica takes the Water of Life.
- The Baron is very clever, yes. He wears suspensors, allowing him to walk. But his ability to "fly" is important.
- The hunter-seeker scene unfolds similar to the novel.
- There is no Jessica's garden sadly (nor Fenrings), but the date palms outside the palace take their place as something Jessica wants to hold in trust for the people.
- Paul has terrifying visions of the jihad. If anything is going to push the ratings it could be the visions.
- [Gurney Halleck] Inkvine scar, present and correct!
- Hard to say about the rating. Violence and nudity could be filmed for either audience. Heck if they can do a PG-13 Deadpool version they can make a PG-13 Dune. :)
- Flapping [Ornithopter wings] is most definitely part of description.
- The 'thopter are described as having flapping wings, and while they could be designed out, the script does make use of that feature.
- There is things we haven't seen (or read) before in the script.
- There is no Harah mentioned in the script, perhaps Gloria Obianyo is actually Mapes?
- It would appear previous rumours [about Kynes] were correct....
- [Duncan Idaho is in it] A lot more than Lynch's version.
And a lot more on the comments section in the tweet above...

Doesn't seem like a big deal at first, but it kinda contradicts the book, which clearly portrays a society inspired by a feudalistic spiritual horizon and associatons of ideas with all its patriarchal implications.
Therefore affecting one of the central themes of the book, heck it even ends on the role of "the" woman in this type of social structure.
It's a dumb idea, and I have a feeling she's going to be someone's love interest before al is said and done.
Stick to the book! For Pete's sake.

Quote from: Jon SpaihtsIt's more possible to work remotely in VFX than in most aspects of production. A lot of artists have powerful machines at home. Editorial and VFX trundle on. It's production (including minor bits of additional photography or what have you) that have been stalled for all films.

Not really, you can easily do high-end modelling and texturing on consumer-level multi-core/multi-threaded PC's these days. The actual rendering will still be done at the VFX facilities' powerful render farms. Don't need anyone there for it, as the artists finish their respective assignments they just feed it into the pipeline from home.

Next problematic item is gonna be the funding of the second one i guess, cause I don't really expect the first one to hit it out of the park.
Now if it actually bombs hard and with the upcoming financial drought I think we're looking at the real possibility the second won't be made at all...

This means about 10 hours of Dune already secured, hopefully more in the pipe.
If it's just a glimpse in the end we gotta accept there's not this type of audience out there that justifies throwing Star Wars money at a Dune cinematic project.
Maybe the whole fictional universe with its more mature content is better suited for a TV format anyway.

Not a huge fan either, nonetheless I'd appreciate a not too technical approach when it comes to vehicles, ships and weapons etc. Dune was always a bit artsy, extravagant, expressionistic - so I wouldn't mind if done in a tasteful way.

Eh... Is it just me or are the stillsuits a bit meh designwise? No match for the Lynch ones IMO.
Atreides' armoured suits look pretty decent though. Cool mix between medieval and Scifi, Dune in a nutshell here.
Chalamet and Ferguson seem perfect too.
But the best thing:

Thanks Ingwar, was just busy linking the images to here myself - you beat me to it!
Here's the text:
I'm kinda the other way around, like the stillsuits but the armour reminds me of those 2000's video game armours with the low-poly geometrical look. :-\ Or like something from a cheap-ass Halo adaption.
Here's the text:
QuoteTimothée Chalamet remembers the darkness. It was the summer of 2019, and the cast and crew of Dune had ventured deep into the sandstone and granite canyons of southern Jordan, leaving in the middle of the night so they could catch the dawn on camera. The light spilling over the chasms gave the landscape an otherworldly feel. It was what they had come for.
"It was really surreal," says Chalamet. "There are these Goliath landscapes, which you may imagine existing on planets in our universe, but not on Earth."
They weren't on Earth anymore, anyway. They were on a deadly, dust-dry battleground planet called Arrakis. In Frank Herbert's epic 1965 sci-fi novel, Arrakis is the only known location of the galaxy's most vital resource, the mind-altering, time-and-space-warping "spice." In the new film adaptation, directed by Arrival and Blade Runner 2049 filmmaker Denis Villeneuve, Chalamet stars as the young royal Paul Atreides, the proverbial stranger in a very strange land, who's fighting to protect this hostile new home even as it threatens to destroy him. Humans are the aliens on Arrakis. The dominant species on that world are immense, voracious sandworms that burrow through the barren drifts like subterranean dragons.
For the infinite seas of sand that give the story its title, the production moved to remote regions outside Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, where the temperatures rivaled the fiction in Herbert's story. "I remember going out of my room at 2 a.m., and it being probably 100 degrees," says Chalamet. During the shoot, he and the other actors were costumed in what the world of Dune calls "stillsuits"—thick, rubbery armor that preserves the body's moisture, even gathering tiny bits from the breath exhaled through the nose. In the story, the suits are life-giving. In real life, they were agony. "The shooting temperature was sometimes 120 degrees," says Chalamet. "They put a cap on it out there, if it gets too hot. I forget what the exact number is, but you can't keep working." The circumstances fed the story they were there to tell: "In a really grounded way, it was helpful to be in the stillsuits and to be at that level of exhaustion."
It wouldn't be Dune if it were easy. Herbert's novel became a sci-fi touchstone in the 1960s, heralded for its world-building and ecological subtext, as well as its intricate (some say impenetrable) plot focusing on two families struggling for supremacy over Arrakis. The book created ripples that many see in everything from Star Wars to Alien to Game of Thrones. Still, for decades, the novel itself has defied adaptation. In the '70s, the wild man experimental filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky mounted a quest to film it, but Hollywood considered the project too risky. David Lynch brought Dune to the big screen in a 1984 feature, but it was derided as an incomprehensible mess and a blight on his filmography. In 2000, a Dune miniseries on what's now the SyFy channel became a hit for the cable network, but it is now only dimly remembered.
"I would not agree to make this adaptation of the book with one single movie," says Villeneuve. "The world is too complex. It's a world that takes its power in details."
Villeneuve intends to create a Dune that has so far only existed in the imagination of readers. The key, he says, was to break the sprawling narrative in half. When Dune hits theaters on December 18, it will only be half the novel, with Warner Bros. agreeing to tell the story in two films, similar to the studio's approach with Stephen King's It and It Chapter Two. "I would not agree to make this adaptation of the book with one single movie," says Villeneuve. "The world is too complex. It's a world that takes its power in details."
For Villeneuve, this 55-year-old story about a planet being mined to death was not merely a space adventure, but a prophecy. "No matter what you believe, Earth is changing, and we will have to adapt," he says. "That's why I think that Dune, this book, was written in the 20th century. It was a distant portrait of the reality of the oil and the capitalism and the exploitation—the overexploitation—of Earth. Today, things are just worse. It's a coming-of-age story, but also a call for action for the youth."
Chalamet's character, Paul, thinks he's just a boy struggling to find a place in the world, but he actually possesses the ability to change it. He has a supernatural gift to harness and unleash energy, lead others, and meld with the heart of his new home world. Paul comes from a powerful galactic family with a name that sounds like a constellation—the House Atreides. His father and mother, Duke Leto (played by Oscar Isaac) and Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson), take their son from their lush, Scandinavian-like home world to preside over spice extraction on Arrakis. What follows is a clash with the criminal, politically connected House Harkonnen, led by the monstrous Baron Vladimir (Stellan Skarsgård), a mammoth with merciless appetites. The baron, created with full-body prosthetics, is like a rhino in human form. This version of the character is less of a madman and more of a predator. "As much as I deeply love the book, I felt that the baron was flirting very often with caricature," says Villeneuve. "And I tried to bring him a bit more dimension. That's why I brought in Stellan. Stellan has something in the eyes. You feel that there's someone thinking, thinking, thinking—that has tension and is calculating inside, deep in the eyes. I can testify, it can be quite frightening."
The director has also expanded the role of Paul's mother, Lady Jessica. She's a member of the Bene Gesserit, a sect of women who can read minds, control people with their voice (again, a precursor to the Jedi mind trick), and manipulate the balance of power in the universe. In the script, which Villeneuve wrote with Eric Roth and Jon Spaihts, she is even more fearsome than before. The studio's plot synopsis describes her as a "warrior priestess." As Villeneuve jokes, "It's better than 'space nun.' "
Lady Jessica's duty is to deliver a savior to the universe—and now she has a greater role in defending and training Paul too. "She's a mother, she's a concubine, she's a soldier," says Ferguson. "Denis was very respectful of Frank's work in the book, [but] the quality of the arcs for much of the women have been brought up to a new level. There were some shifts he did, and they are beautifully portrayed now."
In an intriguing change to the source material, Villeneuve has also updated Dr. Liet Kynes, the leading ecologist on Arrakis and an independent power broker amid the various warring factions. Although always depicted as a white man, the character is now played by Sharon Duncan-Brewster (Rogue One), a black woman. "What Denis had stated to me was there was a lack of female characters in his cast, and he had always been very feminist, pro-women, and wanted to write the role for a woman," Duncan-Brewster says. "This human being manages to basically keep the peace amongst many people. Women are very good at that, so why can't Kynes be a woman? Why shouldn't Kynes be a woman?"
As fans will know, there's a vast menagerie of other characters populating Dune. There are humans called "mentats," augmented with computerlike minds. Paul is mentored by two bravado warriors Duncan Idaho and Gurney Halleck, played by Jason Momoa and Josh Brolin. Dave Bautista plays a sinister Harkonnen enforcer Glossu Rabban, and Charlotte Rampling has a key role as the Bene Gesserit reverend mother. The list goes on. In the seemingly unlivable wilds of Arrakis, Javier Bardem leads the Fremen tribe as Stilgar, and Zendaya costars as a mystery woman named Chani, who haunts Paul in his dreams as a vision with glowing blue eyes.
The breadth of Dune is what has made it so confounding for others to adapt. "It's a book that tackles politics, religion, ecology, spirituality—and with a lot of characters," says Villeneuve. "I think that's why it's so difficult. Honestly, it's by far the most difficult thing I've done in my life." After finishing this first movie, he'll just have to do it all over again.

David Lynch's is... an interesting failure. The movie isn't particularly good, and it totally misunderstands the book, but it is such an odd one to watch that I can't help but be captivated by it, warts and all. And I love so much of the design of it.
I haven't seen the SyFy miniseries, so I can't speak to that.

Yeah, I see that armour is getting some flack from people who actually make and wear real armour. Too bulky and restrictive to be effective in actual combat.
But did they even wear armour in the book? I have no memory of this? How would it affect hand-to-hand combat? "The slow blade penetrates the shield" but then what happens when the slow blade hits the armour? ???

Stillsuits remind me a lot of the Lynch ones TBH. The Lynch ones were basically perfect and these seem to fall right in line there.
I'm not saying it's a bad design or anything, just that it's getting a bit lost in details. The Lynch design had a more organic look with an overall sharper impression and almost Gigerish elements.
QuoteI'm kinda the other way around, like the stillsuits but the armour reminds me of those 2000's video game armours with the low-poly geometrical look. :-\ Or like something from a cheap-ass Halo adaption.
I guess I just prefer the more expressionistic look here.
I'm getting a bit of an Excalibur vibe from those shots.
I wonder though, I really can't recall Leto ever wearing an armoured suit in the book. If I had to guess, I would say these shots are from that first excursion to the desert with Kynes, but in the book they are just wearing body shields if memory serves me correctly.
This had me thinking: Could it be they canceled the whole body shield thing entirely? Cause let's be honest the whole portrayal of the idea even in the book is a bit of a mess and the interaction with 'Lasguns' and the aspect of being penetrable by moving slow isn't really worked out 'unambiguously'. Not to mention the problems this all causes when it comes to making these things work in a film.
They could just keep these large shields for building, ships and other larger sized objects.
I dunno, or maybe these are just 'new scenes' entirely.
QuoteBut did they even wear armour in the book? I have no memory of this? How would it affect hand-to-hand combat? "The slow blade penetrates the shield" but then what happens when the slow blade hits the armour?
'Armoured troops' or something are mentioned during that long briefing scene in that airport tower outside Arrakeen. I think the depiction in the book when it comes to battles between the Great Houses always meanders a bit between the soldiers actually wearing (heavier) armour or just body shields or a mix of both. Sometimes the Sardaukar for example just wear the Harkonnen 'uniform', but two pages later are in armour again or something, it's a bit messy.
Again I'm inclined to think they might cancel out the whole body shield idea completely OR these sort of armour actually implements a shield generator which then could easily be instrumentalized to explain the bulky look, who knows...

QuoteI wonder though, I really can't recall Leto ever wearing an armoured suit in the book. If I had to guess, I would say these shots are from that first excursion to the desert with Kynes, but in the book they are just wearing body shields if memory serves me correctly.
They were wearing stillsuits for that first excursion into the desert. Kynes specifically comments on Paul's instinctive ability to fasten the boots correctly. But could be that they had personal shields as well.
QuoteThis had me thinking: Could it be they cancel the whole body shield thing entirely? Cause let's be honest the whole portrayal of the idea even in the book is a bit of a mess and the interaction with 'Lasguns' and the aspect of being penetrable by moving slow isn't really worked out 'unambiguously'. Not to mention the problems this all causes when it comes to making these things work in a film.
Could be, the shields would be a tricky thing to do in film. Looked a bit ass in the original movie as well. But then why do they have knives/machetes on their belts? Why not lasguns or projectile guns? Why bother with knives?

Definitely stillsuits, but i think everyone (except for Kynes of course) is wearing a body shield too. Think Kynes just chuckles at the sight explaining how they are completely useless in the desert and even allure the worms. But they keep them on anyway.

The knives could be a mere decoration thing. If they really follow the book here closely and depict the whole society as feudalistic it makes sense for the leading caste to parade these sort of status symbols when appearing in public.

I might be the only person in the world who likes Lynch's Dune; I have a 3+ hour cut on a hard drive that I just love. I wouldn't argue that it's good, only that I enjoy it. Really looking to Denis' version because I think he's one of the best directors tackling SF these last few years.

Its failures are part of what makes it so interesting to me. It colossally misunderstands the source material, but it is a really interesting deep dive into Lynch and his interpretation of the book's themes.

Possibly, although a lot of emphasis in the book is placed on Paul's knife fighting ability. It is an important element regarding his duel with Jamis and Feyd-Rautha later on. Although one could assume his knife fighting training to be merely ceremonial as well. It could also be like 18th century duelists who despite having access to firearms rather chose to use traditional swords for personal duels.
However, the armour and knives do have a practical rather than a ceremonial look to them though. :-\
Anyway, will be interesting figuring out how this new armour element fits into the movie and whether they actually discarded the shields completely.

The shot of Alia Nightmare Asylum posted earlier is easily one of my all time favourite movie shots.
This movie probably contains more great shots/scenes than some movies I'd unquestionably consider 'great',

You're right of course that in the book the close-quarter fighting aspect is not just a mere ceremonial reminiscence but rather a necessity (I mean, this is obviously the case even for todays real life 'war' scenarios where as a soldier you need to be prepared for close-combat situations as well as for distance combat, although the latter is no doubt the norm). In the book this necessity is even intensified by the body shields, where even in an army vs army type of situation you'd be forced to fight the oponent hand to hand because of the whole 'firing at a shield with a lasgun causes atomic explosions' thingy.
It's a bit of a plot convenience just like the Jedi forces you need to effectively swing a lasersword in SW. It makes no sense for Han to carry one cause against stormtroopers armed with blasters it won't help him. Yet a Jedi could fight them with it and so it becomes possible to implement this kind of weapon into the universe (and all the great sword fight scenes that come with it) without it sticking out like a cool yet more or less useless OR let's just say not often used item.
So yea, even for the movie it kinda would make sense to keep the body shields to preserve the 'practicality of the knife/sword' and therefore keep the frequence of applicability high in universe, but as you already mentioned, it's a bit hard to imagine the visualisation of a close combat fight with body shields and knives (it's also pretty cost-intensive, I'd presume).
Once the story reaches desert territory the shield aspect gets more or less erased anyway. So I think it might be clever and advantageous (both plotwise and budgetwise) to somehow write around the whole thing, i dunno... we'll see.

I wish they'd update the classic RTS game as a tie-in with the new movie.

Almost. He answered a couple of questions apparently :laugh:
THR: If you had your choice, what would you rather make: a feature film or a TV series?
David Lynch: A TV series. Right now. feature films in my book are in big trouble, except for the big blockbusters. The art house films, they don't stand a chance. They might go to a theater for a week and if it's a Cineplex they go to the smallest theater in the setup, and then they go to Blu-ray or On Demand. The big-screen experience right now is gone. Gone, but not forgotten.
THR: What about the glamour of Cannes, bringing Mulholland Drive there and posing for the photo calls?
David Lynch: It's beautiful. Cannes is, you know, just a fantastic venue. But [Cannes director] Thierry [Frémaux] told me that the screen is actually smaller than it was then. I think Mulholland Drive played on this [smaller] size screen. But Wild at Heart in 1990, when I got the Palme d'Or, the screen was bigger and the room was built on analog sound. So Wild at Heart was full-coat mag [magnetic film] on a double system and the power! Smooth, smooth power. That was unreal. A giant screen with smooth, giant sound. Power. Visual and sound at the maximum good.
THR: Is making another feature film out of the question?
David Lynch: No, you never say no to anything, really. But I really love a continuing story, and cable television I say is the new art house. You have total freedom. The sound isn't as good as a great theater; the picture isn't as big — but TVs are getting bigger and bigger and better and better, so there's hope. And then you have this chance for a continuing story, so it's the new art house, I say.
THR: With some distance between you and Twin Peaks: The Return, how are you feeling about it?
David Lynch: Twin Peaks: The Return, it's gold.

I was under the impression that it was common knowledge, if not written law among reporters to never ever, under any circumstances, mention the word "Dune" in any interview with David Lynch.

Nah, the only way to get Ridley Scott going is to tell him that Deckard is a human.

Blade Runner used to be like that for Ridley back in the eighties. It was a very difficult shoot, Ridley didn't have final cut, it bombed hard upon release and got hammered by many critics (much like Dune and Alien 3).
Of course, these days it's widely considered one of the greatest and most influential science-fiction films ever made. And since Ridley got his unicorn scene back in the picture and a Final Cut, he's quite happy to talk about it now.

Looks like it is a new Brian Herbert/KJA book that's going to be formally announced soon.
I've only ever read the first three Frank Herbert novels. Reread the original recently and reading the second one now, with the intention of making it through all six of Frank's books this time. Don't know if I'll ever read the Brian/KJA ones though.

I read almost all the KJA / Brian Herbert novels. They're pretty good. They're nowhere near the tone of Frank Herbert, but they are page turners. They flesh out the universe really well. Lots of angry fans out there because the son of the original author is trying to keep the series alive. ::)

QuoteThat's Timothée Chalamet playing protagonist Paul Atreides, balancing on an airborne ornithopter, flying over the expanse of the planet Arrakis with Josh Brolin's weapons teacher Gurney Halleck – and it's a pivotal moment for the young warrior. "It's Paul's first contact with the deep desert, where he's mesmerised by it," Villeneuve tells Empire. "He has a strange feeling of being home. There's a lot of action at this specific moment, and [it's] one of the scenes in the movie that I'm starting to get pretty proud of."

Yeah, it does sound like that scene.
Here is that scene from Lynch's Dune which was pretty cool. David Lynch can also be seen in a cameo role as a spice harvester crewman in this:

Hmm no teaser yet.
My best guess is that they are stalling and observing how the Corona shit is developing. The Empire Stories and stills are sort of a compromise whereas a teaser would constrain them more.
But at some point there needs to be a decision anyhow.

Looks like he is holding two knives, one in reverse grip. Costume reminds me of 17th & 18th century swashbuckler/duelists style shirts & pants.
I guess this might be during a training session with Gurney Halleck?
Looks like it might be the same ornithoper we glimpsed earlier:

I really like what the Michael Corleone comparison is implying though.
Lynch Paul is a bit too Buddha/Messias, looking like some sort of transcendental winner in the end. Which kinda completely goes against one of the major intentions of the book.

Denis about sandworms:

QuoteWe talked about every little detail that would make such a beast possible, from the texture of the skin, to the way the mouth opens, to the system to eat its food in the sand. It was a year of work to design and to find the perfect shape that looked prehistoric enough.

It's pretty cool and somehow unique. Perhaps the color makes it so. But it also feels cold and digital like a computer model a bit. Seems inorganic almost. Too geometrically perfect somehow.

Was watching Maria Magdalene tonight, mainly for the score (Gudnadottir/Johannsson :o).
What really impressed me though was the cinematography. It was something between Tarkovsky and Malick (minus the excessive camera movements though). Kinda artsy but never too much.
So I waited for the credits and... YESSsssS --

Interesting him saying it's "fully formed story in itself".
Now I really wonder where the cut is... Though I'm kinda inclined to think it 'ends' with a Jihad vision now...
Cause if so, it would kinda work like a Hemingway kind of (short-)story or something like 'Heart of Darkness'. Shifting (a bit) from the (pure) epic to a more novella style approach. I must admit I didn't expect this, but I can see it actually work.

Considering Chani will feature in the first part, my guess would be just after Paul and Jessica meet up with the Fremen.
So not a cliffhanger (eg. lost in the sandstorm) but kind of a happy ending and "fully formed story" as they find refuge with the Fremen.

I only glanced at it, but the last scene is Paul coming out of a vision and finding himself mid-coitus with Chani.
And interestingly, Feyd is only mentioned a few times but never seen, so they're saving him for Part 2.

That makes sense, as nobody was ever cast as Feyd. Which still strikes me as incredibly odd.
I have a feeling that because of that we're going to get much more focus on Rabban in this first half we did in the book. We might even see him prominently feature during the raid on the Haroknnen spice reserves, if that gets shown in this adaptation rather than just mentioned like in the book.

I'm sure it will be officially released on YouTube at least a day before Tenet debuts. Otherwise they're going to have all these shoddy bootleg recordings floating around the internet that might put people off the film.

Quote from: Hans Zimmer via VarietyRight now I'm in the middle of making these sounds. I just have these ideas, and it's like this every day. I'm doing all these experiments, and I have no idea if any of them will ever really end up in the movie. But we are so dedicated, trying to do something different, to do solid and honorable work, and do justice to the book.
I'm driving everybody crazy on "Dune" because I'm so full of ideas. And it's Denis, you know? He lets me be part of this world. It's totally and utterly inspiring, and it's great people I get to work with – scrap the word "work," it's great people I get to play with.
So far I'm doing okay. There are possibilities opening up. Recording is going on in London and Vienna. And look, I've always used odd lineups, and I've sort of, for better or for worse, invented a way of working where you can have different small sections come in at different times. So to me, that's not so different. Working remotely is horrible, but I've done it. And if we have to do it like this, we'll do it like this.

While I'm pretty sure the one below is the same ornithopher we saw Paul and Gurney on from an earlier official photo. So these ones are likely the Atreides military ornithopters while the one on top is a civilian 'thopter that Kynes had stored at one of his botanical stations and that Paul and Jessica ultimately uses to escape the Harkonens.

QuoteI'm pretty sure that the 'thopter in the desert is the one that Paul & Jessica escape in, the script describes it as "...delicate craft compared to the military airships... its cockpit a bubble of glass."
Plus the damage is the result of the sandstorm.

I don't really care for this sandworm design, unfortunately. I think the worms in Lynch's film were absolutely perfect designs. Really can't wait to see the Denis version.

I'm expecting something different from the standard Schoenherr sandworms but I'm hoping the new worms keep a sleek, simple look as opposed to something too overdesigned, spiky and gross with complex mouth parts and all that (like those horrible Tremors 5 Graboids).

Quote from: Kevin J. Anderson"We might be getting a lot of brand-new readers, so we didn't want to do something that was in a very obscure timeframe. We wanted something that could be easily accessible and familiar to anybody who'd just read the first Dune novel," Anderson said during the panel. "It'll be a familiar way to get everybody right up to speed to reading Dune and seeing the film, so we felt this was the right time for bringing this story."

Awesome! I love the Herbert / Anderson books. They expand on the universe very well. They don't ape Frank's style and they don't pretend to be written by Frank, but this is an excellent example of doing an enormous and largely consistent universe expansion.

There are many Frank Herbert fans who don't like the new Dune novels. The style of writing is different. Frank Herbert has the reader "read between the lines" a lot while the new books have everything spelled out in great detail. But I actually loved the intricacies of the great detail. It is such a rich and consistent tapestry that has been written now that I can't imagine anything matching this scope.
Also, there is something honest about not aping Frank Herbert. The authors don't try to be Frank Herbert. They just expand his world with incredible intricacies and socio-political intrigue.

I don't like regurgitating the ideas and sentiments of other fans. But that is not why I like the novels. They add to the richness of the Dune universe and expand upon the world created by Frank Herbert. The style of the books is different, yes, but it is not Frank Herbert writing the new books. I've read the 3 trilogies of Anderson and Herbert, and I have to answer one simple question to myself: did I enjoy reading them? The answer is yes! They were page turners. Every book had no shortage of cliffhangers, twists, surprises, layers upon layers, and insights into the backstory of every major and minor house in the empire. The books wove a continuous tapestry that brought together 10,000 years of history in a way that did not feel disjointed. Some of the characters were different, but we saw the evolution of the houses, and that gave the sort of personal-level continuity that would have otherwise been impossible with books covering such a long span of time.
I don't have any interest in convincing people of how enjoyable these books are but in the face of so much hate aimed at the new books and their authors, I am proud to say that I really love them. They gave me years and years of reading enjoyment. I hope they all get turned into film.

Yep, two shot separately. And barring the delayed reshoots, the first one has already shot.
I'm fine with there being a gap between the two parts, since there's a time jump in the book. I just hope the first part is successful enough that we actually get the second one.

At this point I wish they'd shift the release giving the team more/enough time to thoroughly finish the film. Or kinda what happened to Blade Runner where the way longer (post-)production significantly improved it's look - what a dream scenario (emphasis on 'dream', I suppose).

The Godfather is one of the big reference points that Denis pointed to a few months back when the first official images dropped.
God, I really want to see this stuff in motion. With all these images leaking, somebody has either the teaser attached to Tenet or the full trailer. If it is the former, I hope they just leak it now and get it done with.

I see Warner/Legendary has been on a DMCA spree today, taking down many of yesterday's tweets and bootleg images. Alienating many of the fan accounts in the process that do a lot of free (and even better) marketing for them.
Little of course do they know that once something is on the internet it stays on the internet. Could have saved themselves a lot of trouble if they had just released the bloody trailer on the internet in the first place, ::)
The slipshod marketing so far has me a bit worried about Dune's chances at the box office, I'm starting to get the feeling we'll only ever get half the story.

Yup! Looks like! But also our very first look at the direction they seem to be going. Gotta say, not at all what I expected (I was thinking closer to the Lynch worms, since his are basically right off the book covers) but I think I'm liking this. Just need a view of it that is going to show it off more directly...

Possibly Duncans last stand. I guess these are Harkonnen in armor then.
See no range weapons. The blinky things around the wrists might actually be body-shields.
That guy lying on the far left seem to have something huge around his wrist though. He was Mega Man --
All these tubes may implicate some form of neuronal controlled fighting suits. Maybe involving drugs...

Aye, that big army shot definitely makes me think we're actually going to be seeing the raid on the Harkonnen spice stores in the film, which was only discussed from the sidelines in the novel. That would do well to give this first part of the story a big action scene, and would also be a good opportunity to use Dave Bautista's Beast Rabban in a larger role than if they stuck purely to what was on the page.

Although I agree an Atreides spice raid would be great, I suspect these are (just) Harkonnen/Sardaukar troops preparing to wipe out the Atreides on Dune.
Tenet was great but no teaser. :'(

I am not an expert on Herbert's works but the scale, the color palette, the troops, capital ships; everything seems to scream "watch out! epic space opera siege on the way". It even reminds me of the most recent SW flicks. :laugh:

Ja OK, couldn't resist this one. Pretty acceptable quality that is:
https://streamable.com/ayfdvb (https://streamable.com/ayfdvb)
Don't tell Local.
I'd say the music is Zimmer doing Zimmer-things but it still got me when the credits roll and the more melodic part kicks in.
My favourite part is a mere detail: Paul's first unrestrained reaction/scream is heard when the Baron is ascending from that fluid. Some great editing there. Gives the menace sort of a physicality by combining the scream and the massive corporeal presence that is about to emerge.
Question: Does the fact that Spaihts is listed first place writingwise indicate (unambiguously) that his contribution is either the biggest or at least the same amount as the others?

Judging from the teaser and the stills they seem to stick as close to the source material as it gets. I bet that even involves dialogue (Why alter Herbert's stuff here after all?). Maybe like they did with LotR but even more so.
This possibly means that the directing is 70-80% of the final product. And thats DV. And that sorta makes me cautiously optimisitic.

Beter quality image of the one from previous page:

That's actually a genuine knife fighting stance with his left hand open and positioned in front of his most vulnerable bodypart - his throat.
His grip on the knife is way too loose though.

QuoteIn case anyone was wondering, the cover song in the trailer is from Pink Floyd's 1973 album "Dark Side of the Moon".
The song is called "Eclipse" which fits with the #Dune logo too!
Oddly, Pink Floyd were going to do the music for Jodorowsky's Dune, and Jodorowsky met them in Abbey Road where they were mixing "Dark Side of the Moon"

Yeah, that's my gripe as well. I think Lynch's Dune was much more interesting visually with it's baroque/steampunk feel.
And although the trailer music is interesting from a symbolic and historical point of view I don't really think it suits the trailer that well.

I'm not actually disagreeing but I think by not going with a more stylized look Denis' films feel more realistic, unmediated. He's more Coppola than Kubrick (or Ridley for that matter).

Yeah, I definitely think it looks a lot more realistic. But realism is often boring, and many of the designs just look a bit uninspired. Loved how Ridley went with a retro 70's sci-fi look for Wolves on the other hand.

And that Nature Boy cover for the first Alien Covenant trailer, sure it's clever with regards to the lyrics pertaining to David but it was a horrible choice for the trailer. Like putting Marmite or Tabasco sauce on pancakes.

At the end of the day this is more a question of taste than anything else. Personally I'm a sucker for how he mixes the minimalistic approach with some sort of brutalistic aesthetic and yet keeps everything inside a (expanded) realistic realm:

I am so very happy that they did the dragonfly build for them.
So very in love with the worms here. Apart from the worms, basically everything I'm seeing here looks pretty much 1:1 like what I imagined in my mind when reading. I saw the worms as much closer to Lynch's version, but I am so into this new take on them. They feel immense, and looking at them head on is like staring into an eye, or a black hole.

It is gonna flop sooo hard. They spent $200 million dollars making a movie that is based on the first half of a novel that most moviegoers have never even heard of let alone read. So you are only getting half a story. What were they thinking? It will never make enough to justify the second movie.

Which was my complaint about Blade Runner 2049, and now it is happening to Dunc as well.
Not blown away by the look, and the sets. Think it needs more texture.
So cant say im too hyped for it.

Yeah it does, although in the book the fight took place within a cave with both combatants stripped naked IIRC. My guess is that the film will end soon after that fight after Paul and Jessica are accepted among the Fremen. At least it is kind of a decent ending if there is to be no second movie.

Yep, Blade Runner 2049 simply did not look like Ridley's Blade Runner world. At least with DUN

Jodo watched Lynch's in the theater, to make peace with it – he was nervous as all f**k going in, and then said as the movie kept going he became overjoyed when he realized it was awful. :D
IIRC he tells this story in the Jodorowsky's Dune doc.

Yeah that would have been something.
According to the BR documentary he was supposed to do it after Alien.
They said that their set were being built, and then it just didnt happen.
But i have not been able to find any pictures of the sets, or even some concept art.
Which is strange since we were able to find the concept art for Tristian and Iseult, that we talked about earlier.
Wonder if that Arzach hat would have made an guest apperance on his Dune ;)

Yeah Scott worked on Dune for about 7 months so there must at least be some Ridleygrams around. I very much doubt "sets were being built" as described by Paul M. Sammon in Dangerous Days since Rudolph Wurlitzer only handed in the first draft of the screenplay shortly before Ridley's departure. One doesn't burn money on sets that early.
Interestingly, Ridley's Dune would also have been split into two movies. It seems Villeneuve is finishing up all Ridley's unrealized projects these days, Blade Runner 2, Dune...

The new DUNC toys revealed. No word yet whether weirding modules will be included but the Beast Rabban does come with an inkvine wip,

Rabban is actually a build a figure, so you have to get all the others in order to collect the pieces to make puffy Dave Bautista.

So every time you buy a figure you get a little piece of Rabban? And then you assemble him when you've collected them all?

Yup. Hasbro does the same thing with a lot of their figure lines, namely the Marvel Legends stuff. I think Mattel does it as well.

Think I can hear what you mean. I'd say it's a pretty common 'sequence' in modern film scores though. Kinda gives me Original Terminator theme vibes too. Well a bit at least...
But Floyd and Arabic influences aside and if the beginning (00:00 - 01:10) is more of an indicator for the 'actual' music in the film I'd say Zimmer is possibly influenced (and or vice versa) by artists like Paul Jebanasam (the stop&go aspect) and Roly Porter. A good thing in my book. Love the heaviness and the level of experimentalism. It's a bit risky too, which is more often a good thing than not imo. And for Dune anyway.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRwjbyHO8ao (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRwjbyHO8ao)
Of course the middle part is way over the top for any (high budget) film score. But BR2049 actually incorporated quite 'out there' musical elements too. Quite a risky because over the top atmospheric soundtrack but when the melody finally kicks in it feels kinda earned:

I'd say this partly due to this book.
So Kwisatz, you presumably chose your name based on your love of Dune, well before this new film became a thing. How hard core are you? Just curious. I read 95% of all the novels. Just a few left.
I only read the Herbert stuff though and decades ago so don't put my knowledge to an acid test. I reread the original book two years ago I think and together with the Lynch film which I watched fairly often in it's various versions I'm able to remember bits and pieces.
. . .
Ok I'm just a huge Peter Berg fan and read the dust cover when I heard he was going to make a film called Dune --

Looks like raindrops running down a window to me. "I bless the rains down in Arrakis".
I found BR2049's music mostly texture rather than actual melody ala Vangelis.

Original is definitely more melodic while BR2049s is more atmospheric.
And the melodic parts in BR2049 are way more 'sprawled out' to keep them atmospheric too if that makes any sense. :laugh:
And of course there are way more melodies per se in the Original, which is the most astonishing thing imo to realize how much Vangelis came up with.
The KoH soundtrack is excellent btw. Love the sequence that plays during the Intermission of the DC.

Vangelis was sorely missed in BR 2049. He was such an integral part of BR. And yes, it is about the melody for sure.

That was made up for the Lynch movie.
Lynch added a lot of things to his movie version of 'DUNE'. The pustules on the baron, squashing the rats and drinking the "squood" fluid. The whole Atriedes "weirding module" and fighting against the Harkonnens and Sardukar using sound elements were all introduced by Lynch. There's tons of other diversions as well, such as the Guild Navigators ability to "fold space" instead ow what Herbert describes in the book. The spice makes 'em perceive safe and optimised paths through space. The ornithopters don't have flapping wings and son on. I'm pretty sure the fremen should be wearing cloaks - these and others are among changes Lynch brought on board. ...and so on and so forth.
We've already seen changes in the Villeneuve version, too. Straight off the bat, Dr. Kynes is now a woman, for example. There will be more changes, too. Film makers will always bring their own interpretation to a property. We have seen it happen with every 'ALIEN' movie to date. I expect the new 'DUNE' movie will be laden with them, too.

When LOTR films came out, one of my friends, a long time LOTR fan was very upset with the deviations that were made for the films. I didn't understand him then, but I understand him now. As a fan of Dune who's read most of the books including the pre-post-quels, I dislike that Kynes is a woman. I don't have any issue with Wiman actors. That would be absurd. But I don't like changes to the book being made. This is now the 4th attempt to make a big production Dune film. The fans want something more true to the book with each new version, not politically driven changes to the author's vision.

Eh. I adore the book. Read it twice. Kynes being a woman is totally fine.
You're never going to be able to adapt anything 1:1, and if you try to, the adapted material is going to suffer for it. Kynes being a woman streamlines the Kynes/Chani/Stilgar relationship (Stilgar will likely be Chani's father instead of her uncle in this iteration). None of this messes with the intent or meaning of the book or these characters in any way, in my opinion.
Also, I don't really see this change as being "politically driven" but even if it was, who cares? Dune is an incredibly political story anyways. :D

After watching the trailer a couple times I actually think the influence of Lynchs version may be not that minor (at least visually... and in certain areas).

From the recent Carlos Huante interview (posted in both the Alien: Awakening and Raised by Wolves threads), Huante stated that the Guild Navigators will not be appearing.
That's fine. I don't think a navigator shows up in person in the books until Messiah.
They show up near the end, but just as normal looking humans. The weird fish-like creatures living in melange tanks only show up in Messiah.

I always just kind of assumed those guys were regular Guild representatives, not navigators. At least that's how I justify the retcon.

Yeah, the two fat guys in grey robes were introduced as "Guild Agents" but Paul later sussed them out as actual Navigators. Perhaps one can also get around the retcon by assuming they were still new to the job, that the excessive amounts of spice intake over the years hadn't yet begun to mutate them. I wonder how Villeneuve will handle them if he gets to make the second movie?

It actually probably is the right decision. This film would tank if released now, and that's not due to its own merits but rather due to the second wave scare.
The only concern would be if Kim Jung Un decides he wants to see it, hacks into the Warner vault and starts selling copies. ;-P
There is a graphic novel Dune adaptation coming out and a 12-part comic adaptation of House Atreides. We should get to see Planet IX! Excitement will be building for Dune!
I also acquired recently the Marvel adaptation of the original Dune film. I didn't realize the art was by Bill Sienkiewicz! It's quite a beautiful edition and terrifically illustrated. It's better than the film IMO. Highly recommended. This is up there with the Alien adaptation by Walt Simonson and Archie Goodwin.

Quote from: DeadlineI'm hearing that Legendary Entertainment either has or will send legal letters to Warner Bros as soon as today, challenging the decision to put the Denis Villenueve-directed Dune into the HBO Max deal, and maybe Godzilla vs Kong as well. On the latter, Legendary reportedly had Netflix ready to pull the film from Warner Bros for around $250 million, before WarnerMedia blocked it. Sources said Legendary had no advance notice before last week's announcement that both Dune and Godzilla vs. Kong were part of the HBO Max plan.
Legendary certainly seems to have the right to challenge WarnerMedia on its decision: Legendary and its partners provided 75% of the $165 million or so net budget of Dune, the adaptation of the Frank Herbert novel that was envisioned to be the first of multiple films exploiting the six-novel series.

QuoteI learned in the news that Warner Bros. has decided to release "Dune" on HBO Max at the same time as our theatrical release, using prominent images from our movie to promote their streaming service. With this decision AT&T has hijacked one of the most respectable and important studios in film history. There is absolutely no love for cinema, nor for the audience here. It is all about the survival of a telecom mammoth, one that is currently bearing an astronomical debt of more than $150 billion. Therefore, even though "Dune" is about cinema and audiences, AT&T is about its own survival on Wall Street. With HBO Max's launch a failure thus far, AT&T decided to sacrifice Warner Bros.' entire 2021 slate in a desperate attempt to grab the audience's attention.
Warner Bros.' sudden reversal from being a legacy home for filmmakers to the new era of complete disregard draws a clear line for me. Filmmaking is a collaboration, reliant on the mutual trust of team work and Warner Bros. has declared they are no longer on the same team.
Streaming services are a positive and powerful addition to the movie and TV ecosystems. But I want the audience to understand that streaming alone can't sustain the film industry as we knew it before COVID. Streaming can produce great content, but not movies of "Dune's" scope and scale. Warner Bros.' decision means "Dune" won't have the chance to perform financially in order to be viable and piracy will ultimately triumph. Warner Bros. might just have killed the "Dune" franchise. This one is for the fans. AT&T's John Stankey said that the streaming horse left the barn. In truth, the horse left the barn for the slaughterhouse.
Public safety comes first. Nobody argues with that. Which is why when it became apparent the winter would bring a second wave of the pandemic, I understood and supported the decision to delay "Dune's" opening by almost a year. The plan was that "Dune" would open in theaters in October 2021, when vaccinations will be advanced and, hopefully, the virus behind us. Science tells us that everything should be back to a new normal next fall.
"Dune" is by far the best movie I've ever made. My team and I devoted more than three years of our lives to make it a unique big screen experience. Our movie's image and sound were meticulously designed to be seen in theaters.
I'm speaking on my own behalf, though I stand in solidarity with the sixteen other filmmakers who now face the same fate. Please know I am with you and that together we are strong. The artists are the ones who create movies and series.
I strongly believe the future of cinema will be on the big screen, no matter what any Wall Street dilettante says. Since the dawn of time, humans have deeply needed communal storytelling experiences. Cinema on the big screen is more than a business, it is an art form that brings people together, celebrating humanity, enhancing our empathy for one another — it's one of the very last artistic, in-person collective experiences we share as human beings.
Once the pandemic is over, theaters will be filled again with film lovers.
That is my strong belief. Not because the movie industry needs it, but because we humans need cinema, as a collective experience.
So, just as I have both a fiduciary and creative responsibility to fulfill as the filmmaker, I call on AT&T to act swiftly with the same responsibility, respect and regard to protect this vital cultural medium. Economic impact to stakeholders is only one aspect of corporate social responsibility. Finding ways to enhance culture is another. The moviegoing experience is like no other. In those darkened theaters films capture our history, educate us, fuel our imagination and lift and inspire our collective spirit. It is our legacy.
Long live theatrical cinema!
— Denis Villeneuve

I agree with every word of that. If things are still in bad shape with the world next year, I would honestly rather wait 'til 2022 to see it than have this released the way AT&T/WB plan on releasing it.
The way they pulled this without informing any of the filmmakers is especially shitty.

So basically, if they go ahead with releasing it on HBO Max it will mean no second movie.

[EDIT] Actually I should rather say, no second part of the Dune movie. Like making a LOTR's movie but only filming The Fellowship of the Ring and half of The Two Towers.
The second film could just end up leading into a series instead. I personally think it was misguided to not film the whole thing in one production.

Quote from: Ingwar on Dec 11, 2020, 01:34:40 PMQuoteI learned in the news that Warner Bros. has decided to release "Dune" on HBO Max at the same time as our theatrical release, using prominent images from our movie to promote their streaming service. With this decision AT&T has hijacked one of the most respectable and important studios in film history. There is absolutely no love for cinema, nor for the audience here. It is all about the survival of a telecom mammoth, one that is currently bearing an astronomical debt of more than $150 billion. Therefore, even though "Dune" is about cinema and audiences, AT&T is about its own survival on Wall Street. With HBO Max's launch a failure thus far, AT&T decided to sacrifice Warner Bros.' entire 2021 slate in a desperate attempt to grab the audience's attention.
Warner Bros.' sudden reversal from being a legacy home for filmmakers to the new era of complete disregard draws a clear line for me. Filmmaking is a collaboration, reliant on the mutual trust of team work and Warner Bros. has declared they are no longer on the same team.
Streaming services are a positive and powerful addition to the movie and TV ecosystems. But I want the audience to understand that streaming alone can't sustain the film industry as we knew it before COVID. Streaming can produce great content, but not movies of "Dune's" scope and scale. Warner Bros.' decision means "Dune" won't have the chance to perform financially in order to be viable and piracy will ultimately triumph. Warner Bros. might just have killed the "Dune" franchise. This one is for the fans. AT&T's John Stankey said that the streaming horse left the barn. In truth, the horse left the barn for the slaughterhouse.
Public safety comes first. Nobody argues with that. Which is why when it became apparent the winter would bring a second wave of the pandemic, I understood and supported the decision to delay "Dune's" opening by almost a year. The plan was that "Dune" would open in theaters in October 2021, when vaccinations will be advanced and, hopefully, the virus behind us. Science tells us that everything should be back to a new normal next fall.
"Dune" is by far the best movie I've ever made. My team and I devoted more than three years of our lives to make it a unique big screen experience. Our movie's image and sound were meticulously designed to be seen in theaters.
I'm speaking on my own behalf, though I stand in solidarity with the sixteen other filmmakers who now face the same fate. Please know I am with you and that together we are strong. The artists are the ones who create movies and series.
I strongly believe the future of cinema will be on the big screen, no matter what any Wall Street dilettante says. Since the dawn of time, humans have deeply needed communal storytelling experiences. Cinema on the big screen is more than a business, it is an art form that brings people together, celebrating humanity, enhancing our empathy for one another — it's one of the very last artistic, in-person collective experiences we share as human beings.
Once the pandemic is over, theaters will be filled again with film lovers.
That is my strong belief. Not because the movie industry needs it, but because we humans need cinema, as a collective experience.
So, just as I have both a fiduciary and creative responsibility to fulfill as the filmmaker, I call on AT&T to act swiftly with the same responsibility, respect and regard to protect this vital cultural medium. Economic impact to stakeholders is only one aspect of corporate social responsibility. Finding ways to enhance culture is another. The moviegoing experience is like no other. In those darkened theaters films capture our history, educate us, fuel our imagination and lift and inspire our collective spirit. It is our legacy.
Long live theatrical cinema!
— Denis Villeneuve

Tell that to David Lynch. Following your logic Michael Bay is better director than Ridley Scott. We should be glad that we have someone unique like Denis. Who cares about box office? Studios and producers but I don't give a monkey as it's not my money.

He doesn't have any issues with streaming becoming an important distribution method per se. He's pissed because AT&T have cut their losses along with any chance of his film becoming a box office success. They've also scuttled any hope of the second part ever happening. He's also pissed because he wasn't consulted on this. And he is correct in saying that streaming alone can't fund films of this scope.

Since I only recently watched Troy and Neverending Story: I think I wouldn't mind Petersen.
Dunno if he's even in the business anymore.
Or maybe... even... the Sir himself ;D omg think about it lol
Think he might even be willing to scrap his 357 other projects should this late mega opportunity actually arise.
I'd prefer Petersen over Scott though tbh. Or give it to Eggers. Pretty sure he'd deliver.

Quote from: THRFilmmaker Denis Villeneuve has written passionately about his desire for an exclusive theatrical release and Legendary is backing him in that demand, according to a knowledgeable source. That film is set for an October release, meaning that theaters may once again be operating as millions are vaccinated.
According to a source, conversations regarding various theatrical windowing approaches are ongoing and it remains unclear which option will be acceptable to Villeneuve. Another potential issue: It appears Warners may have been using Dune images to promote its streaming service without approval.

I just saw the trailer. I started getting interested at the point the version of Pink Floyd's 'Eclipse' started.
An old trick: use something familiar (and, they hope, much loved by the target audience) alongside the new concept, thing or movie.
Then the audience will, they hope, transfer their love of the musical hook into enthusiasm for the movie.
Well, it kept me watching to the end, but no matter how epic the visuals got, I wasn't enthused much.
Oh and did I hear the word 'Crusade' early on in the trailer? Oh the irony.

Quote from: DeadlineIt hasn't been decided yet if Legendary's other Warner Bros. title Dune will go day and date theatrical and on HBO Max. This is despite the fact that the latter streaming service keeps promoting it as part of their 2021 suite. The success of Godzilla vs. Kong this past weekend makes a clear argument in Legendary's negotiations with Warner to keep that all-star sci-fi movie strictly in theaters.

Eric Roth talking with Collider on a treatment for the second half of Dune written by him:
https://twitter.com/Collider/status/1381648972754878465
Quote from: via ColliderI [wrote] a treatment to show the estate what we could do with the second half, but I've got to tell you that I think I've done as much as I can do. I also have other things I want to do. I'm 76 years old, and these things obviously take a long time to do. And so I have a few others I'm excited about. And hopefully people love Dune so much that they do want to have a second part, and I'm sure Denis would do amazing version of that."

Wow this is gold! Thanks :o
"There is no direct connection made on film between the off-hand wookie remark and, as they are more commonly known, shell dwellers. But following the assumption that they are the same, it's still hazy where the concept came from. Laden with overt social and political commentary, the hairy dwarf-like creatures may have sprung into life as a reflection of fringe existences, sacrifices of the consumer society and so on. Maybe at the hand of Lucas, maybe Murch, the two having written it together. But aside from the nickname and some unkempt hair, there is little else binding them to the latter-day wookiees of Star Wars, though both seem to have sprung from monkeys in some way."
"Chewbacca, the character, also started his life in the rough draft (May 1974) as a kind of barbarian alien prince on the jungle planet of Yavin:
[...] five Wookees, (huge grey and furry beasts) [...] The eight foot Chewbacca, who resembles a huge, grey bushbaby with fierce baboon-like fang [...]"

Yeah, but overall the author seems to conclude how complex the creative process is of...everything: from a fictional character like Chewbacca to a 21st century gadget like an iPhone :laugh: while he himself feels identified since he has worked in the video game industry. A conclusion reached when researching the less mainstream and more obscure details of creative process behind the ionic character:
"Chewbacca didn't spring to life out of nowhere, fully formed when Lucas saw his dog in the passenger seat of his car. That's the soundbite. A single step. The reality is complex and human. From vague names floating around, the kernel of an idea, changing purposes and roles of characters, major restructuring, the design hopping from person to person, scrapping the existing concept and going down a different path, seeing existing things in a different light and having to conform a range of ideas to complement and enrich one another."

Ja, he writes pretty balanced. Guess it's what "tricked" me into the "reformulation" bit.
Somewhere around the middle part I think he makes it more or less clear that he ultimately thinks that at one point they decided to use more Schoenherr and less "original" McQuarrie for final Chewie though.

I did eight or ten days on the movie, so my character doesn't show up for too much, but his presence will be felt. He's such a frightening presence where even if he doesn't say anything, I think you'll be afraid of him. And I'm extremely fat. I had eight hours in the makeup chair every day.

I tend to agree. Funny thing is teeth-wise I actually can't think of another concept piece that comes that close to the worm design presented in the new film.
You like that one btw?
Ugh, we should really continue this in the Dune thread.
Continuing in the Dune thread. :D
I actually love what the new worm design. The Lynch film's worms are 1:1 with what I imagine the book's worms to be like, so those are pretty damn perfect as far as adapting the material goes, but the new ones have a very distinct, ancient feel to them that I'm also really into so far. The glimpse of the harvester being swallowed looked grand, and the 'big' appearance of the worm in the trailer evoked the sense of staring into a massive, all-knowing eye. I can't wait to see them in all of their glory.

Agreed. Think they're pretty close to Schoenherr's design which is more or less the perfect design for me too.
Aaaand I just realised that the teeth in the new film are basically not that far off from Schoenherr's teeth approach either, they are just way way longer.

In the end it'll all depend on execution anyway. I really could live with them showing not too much worm stuff but making this few scenes stand out with top notch CGI. I'm pretty sure that's DV's take on the whole thing anyway. Now we just need that dang movie lol.

I've watched Lynch's Dune, The Series, and Children of Dune.
Honestly, Dune's point eludes me (I understand Paul is Mau'Dib, on the nose, close to Mahdi). I get Alien, Star Wars, Star Trek, Predator, and more.

I haven't seen the miniseries, but as someone that knows the first book inside and out, Lynch's film is a bit of an odd duck. On one hand, I don't think the movie makes much sense without being familiar with the source material. On the other hand, knowing the source material makes it pretty apparent just how much the film doesn't get/care about the intent of the source material.
All that being said, the film is a damn pleasure to look at.

Based on Lynch's ending it's probably a good thing that we never got his take on Dune Messiah. :laugh: That being said I'm sure his take on the God-Emperor would be stunning.

Debating if I'm going to watch the trailer... Might just hold off, since the release is only a few months out now.
Gonna start up the book again in the meantime though. :D

@ Nightmare Asylum - I remember how I didn't watch any of the trailers for RISE OF SKYWALKER, when I still had hope that it might wrap things up in a way I liked, and wanted to keep the footage fresh for myself. But I wanted a 'taste' of what the trailers offered, so ended up just LISTENING to them. The movie was still a mess, but at least I got an idea of how the trailers sounded at the time, which was enough to keep me interested.

The only movie I've ever really done a (nearly) full media blackout for was Blade Runner 2049. I saw the initial teaser that released a year or so before the film, but none of the actual "main" trailers.
I've already kind of religiously watched the first trailer for this, and poured over all of the stills, so there's no way I'll be able to close myself off the way I did for 2049 at this point. But I do feel like I've seen enough, I know I'm going to be there opening night. A reread of the book will get me from now 'til then.

Problem with the book is that it is too long and complex for just one film. Like trying to make one movie out of the LotR book/s. Also, this was made before the great plague arrived and thus not foreseen. Ridley Scott also wanted to make two films out of it, back when he was working on a Dune adaption post Alien.
But if they are going to debut the film on streaming as well as theater then I doubt it's going to be a financial success, so a part two 2 will be unlikely.

Quote from: Denis Villeneuve via IndieWire"When I did the casting for Chani's character, I met a lot of actresses," Villeneuve said. "Zendaya wanted to audition and today, after shooting the film and seeing what a wonderful actress she is, I'm sorry I auditioned her. It was just because I didn't know her. However that day, she impressed me and when she left the studio I knew that Chani was her, the young desert tiger. I am honored to present two such explosive talents on screen [Chalamet and Zendaya] and I can't wait to shoot the second part of 'Dune' to get them back together. Knowing that in the next chapter Zendaya will be the protagonist of the story."

Dune: Messiah honestly feels like an extended epilogue to Dune, more so than it does its own book, in a lot of ways. I can totally see it rounding out a "trilogy" of sorts from Denis, and then passing the rest of the installments on to other filmmakers if he chooses to depart there.
I've only read up to Children of Dune, myself. Need to read the other three, eventually.

I've read up to partway through Heretics. I think I was just burned out on Dune by that point and had to stop.

Quote from: Denis Villeneuve via EMPIRE"It's not easy to bring the dreams of your teenage years in front of a camera," Villeneuve admits from his editing room this July. "The teenager that I was was really a big dreamer. I had to try to please that guy. It's all the pressure of making sure that I don't disappoint the dream."
"I'm a big David Lynch fan, he's the master," says Villeneuve of that film. "When I saw [Lynch's] Dune I remember being excited, but his take... there are parts that I love and other elements that I am less comfortable with. So it's like, I remember being half-satisfied. That's why I was thinking to myself, 'There's still a movie that needs to be made about that book, just a different sensibility.'"
"Something I deeply love in the book is that there was a strong balance between the masculine power and feminine power."

So Dunc(e) just popped up in the programme of my local IMAX cinema(s) but only in the form of 3D presentations, like absolutely only (didn't they state to show less 3D like years ago?)
So my question now is: Can I just watch these in 2D by not wearing 3D glasses or would I miss something by doing so and rather should watch a 2D presentation at a normal cinema? Cus I rather hate le 3D..
Thanks in advance guyz

I would wait until closer to the time. Its possible that they are advertising the 3d showings early, as they're gonna be the more expensive tickets, ergo more profit. My local cinema normal has big releases in IMAX 3D, and a 2d version as well.
Watching a 3d movie without glasses, will just mess up your eyes, and i would absolutely advise against in 99% of the time.

Ah thanks, so I'll probably wait then.
I'm not sure there's much space for lots of non 3D showings though. This is what the site looks like:

(I'm aware there are two showings on the 15th (but those aren't even IMAX?) but I really can't make those. But yeah maybe I have to wait another week or so or fold some time --)

From the recent Carlos Huante interview (posted in both the Alien: Awakening and Raised by Wolves threads), Huante stated that the Guild Navigators will not be appearing.
That's fine. I don't think a navigator shows up in person in the books until Messiah.
They show up near the end, but just as normal looking humans. The weird fish-like creatures living in melange tanks only show up in Messiah.

and it's good and creative. Still has some typical Zimmer stylings in places but.. definitely not a bad score.

Think the pedophilic stuff alone would turn any one-to-one adaptation of the book into R.
The film actually feels a bit tame (in parts) for Dune. It often compensates for that with absolut great atmosphere though.

I would hardly consider what he said "hate". He didn't say they were awful, just that he thinks they are formulaic. I happen to agree with him even though I enjoy a lot of Marvel films.

The whole first part, until , stuck me in my seat. We find the dazzling staging that Villeneuve strikes us in each of his films since Sicario. But this is like that every 3 minutes, we take full eyes, ears, we feel such a breath, such floating, such power. The atmosphere is heavy, the scope immense - in the continuity of Blade Runner 2049 - and the music, excellent although less memorable for Zimmer, reinforces this atmosphere a little more.
I really appreciated the way Villeneuve presents us and invites us into this universe, the presentation of the different cast, the issues of each other, is particularly fluid, efficient, natural. It's accessible, rhythmic, punchy, so much so that it made the work almost too simple for me.
The climax of the feature film, it's true that the bellows in the last part falls a bit, with visions a little too much, embarrasing, and a much more intimate end in the desert, which would have made a very good introduction in part two. Anyway, this first part was of a rather crazy formal ambition and sufficiently rich and well constructed to make people want to see one, two, three or four suites.
4/5

Leto's death

Back from it, I do not see the distinction Villeneuve tried to draw between Marvel and his movie, to me both are the same:
A lot of rich people spending their time talking, a chosen one, 30 explosions per shots because VFX factories offers fixed bid and are paid per shot, not the amount of creatures or explosion they put in it which is why you always see a billions things going on per shot, everything is overly synthetic and there are no risk taken anywhere (the editing, story, acting, colors, cinematography, VFX are all but very conservative).
It looked much like a very old movie made with a mind from someone of the previous centuries, oh look the desert people are arabic, the traitor are asians, the bad guys dress in black, the messiah is young and innocent and goes to an exotic place...
Mute the sound, there's no tension, nothing surprising, everything (not story wise, cos I know Dune is old) visually has been shot a billion time the same way ESPECIALLY in the last couple of years (Wadi Rum in Prometheus, and Star Wars, both got a real love for Lawrence of Arabia, at least Prometheus tried to put make up on it by having bigger mountains in the background and transform the place into a very humid and cold environment).
The sand dune are the same in Star Wars VII, IDK what I was looking at, I'm pretty sure you can cross cut Dune shots with The Force Awakens very easily.
Brutalism is so over-rated these days, yet everything feels dysfunctional and doesn't mean much beside very rich people trying to look modest in their grandiose empty castle.
Music everywhere and when it's muted they really push the useless soundFX (I mean it's sand moving... no need to put thunder sound there or woooosh ::) )
This movie is in my opinion the pinacle of everything I find symptomatic with the industry, it's a disney in disguise or should I say a "long commercial sold as a TV series only for the large screen where the point isn't to make a great movie but to make sure enough people will come back for a sequel not everyone is sure they really want but that please the shareholder.
Would have been at least partially okay if the material was original but even that is so old and consumed and I'm pretty sure they didn't try to go too much off road cos it doesn't look like a Blade Runner attempt compared to do Android dream of electric sheep or close to anything Jodorowsky tried to inject.

Judging by the trailer i was not hyped. I thought the designs were kinda too steril along with the cinematography. Not a huge fan of the trend of finding the sharpest lens possible, putting them on digital cameras and then have it just look as sharp clean and sterile as possible.
So i was not on the hype train.
UNNTILL i saw the freaking movie in theaters.
I loved it and all my problems i had by watching that short trailer went away. I liked the look of it, it thought it was an incredible experience and the use of sound was amazing, not only the score but the general use of sound, voice and filtrations, this movie does an incredible job to transport me into another world, and og boi it has been a long time since i experienced that !
Cant wait for part 2. Anybody knows if they shot them back to back or if part 2 still havent been shot ?

On Paul –
Part two has not yet filmed and its (potential) future existence depends entirely on the success of part one.
Spoiler
Him playing into the sort of stereotypical hero role is kind of pivotal at this stage in the story, in contrast to the horrors that his actions ultimately usher into the world.

Judging by the trailer i was not hyped. I thought the designs were kinda too steril along with the cinematography. Not a huge fan of the trend of finding the sharpest lens possible, putting them on digital cameras and then have it just look as sharp clean and sterile as possible.
So i was not on the hype train.
UNNTILL i saw the freaking movie in theaters.
I loved it and all my problems i had by watching that short trailer went away. I liked the look of it, it thought it was an incredible experience and the use of sound was amazing, not only the score but the general use of sound, voice and filtrations, this movie does an incredible job to transport me into another world, and og boi it has been a long time since i experienced that !
Yeah, it was the same with me, initial sceptism after watching the first trailer but after looking at some of the later released footage I began to change my mind. Wasn't a fan of 2049's look at all but I think Dune is looking very good (aside from some bland production design here and there, IMO). But yeah, there are some really stunning shots in there.
QuoteCant wait for part 2. Anybody knows if they shot them back to back or if part 2 still havent been shot ?
Nope, part 2 has been scripted but not filmed yet. The most recent news on that is, is that the studio told Villeneuve that if it underperforms at the box office but is embraced on HBO Max, then he would most likely be given the go-ahead for part 2.
Quote from: Le Celticant on Sep 21, 2021, 07:56:42 AM
It's a pretty lazy and "safe" adaptation in my opinion (almost like there was no ambition at all to make this movie beyond getting paid to do it).
Villeneuve has said in numerous interviews that Dune is a "passion project" for him. Dune is his favourite book and it has been a lifelong dream to adapt it to film. He has already spent more than 3 years of his life working on it exclusively and loves it deeply.
QuotePlus you can't say "it's impossible to do in one movie" when a prior adaptation (like it or not) show you otherwise.
The problem with the prior adaption was that no-one who haven't read the book understood what was going on. It is too complex a book to adapt into only one film. Even Ridley Scott's version would have been split over two films.

You doubt his sincerity because you don't like the movie - and somehow tried to use the Strause Brothers as a supporting argument? Their movie was awful, but the fact they were fans isn't really in question. You can be passionate and incompetent.

Have you ever heard of the story of darth Strauses brother the wise(not)?
It was once said, two brother loved so much a movie, they made it even better. (still can't get my head around this even today HAHA, I think that makes up an awesome joke in the community at least).
Said every director ever about their adaptation, period.
I'd be surprised if you find someone sayin "I did it for the money, f*ck I didn't even knew what was the source material"
On the 165M$ budget there's at least half on marketing, you can't imagine they let with that money filtrate Villeneuve saying "oh... it was there... that or star wars... ... or another Shrek... it just happened idk how but truth is I would have rather direct a Wall-E movie".
Denis Villeneuve is in a slightly different league compared to the Straus Bros. His ten films total over 18 Academy Award nominations (including best director) and 3 wins. He is competent, don't worry. ;D
And it wasn't as if the project just fell into his lap, he actively pursued the rights in order to film it.
Quote from: Denis Villeneuve, Circa 2016"a longstanding dream of mine is to adapt Dune, but it's a long process to get the rights, and I don't think I will succeed."
He has also been quite frank in interviews, he admitted that he wanted to turn down 2049 because he was afraid of "tarnishing the "brand" and only really took the job due to pressure from the producers (with whom he had worked on his previous film). Besides that, he has said quite a few controversial things in interviews - not a man to mince his words.

Watched it yesterday. Just another in a long long line of total let downs. Yes it looks great but nothing at all happens, main character just dull and uninteresting. 1 action scene that you see most of in the trailers. So many dream scenes with Chani and she only appears in last 20 minutes or so. Long, boring, uneventful.

Saw this last night and really enjoyed it. But it is what it is, half a story. So it kinda feels a little anti-climatic when it ends, which makes me worry reception wont be good enough to get that second part. Otherwise my only real disappointment was in the fight chorography.

Quote from: Corporal Hicks on Oct 19, 2021, 07:47:27 AMI agree, felt unfinished. I wonder if they could have combined the two halves into a 3h movie, cutting some extra stuff (and making a longer SE for Blu-Ray).

QuoteAll eyes are on the domestic box office performance this weekend of Warner Bros. and Legendary's $165M Denis Villeneuve directed sci-fi production Dune. The director originally conceived a two-picture series with the most recent release being part one. What if the film falls greatly short of its $30M-$35M domestic projection? Is Dune dust?
"Will we have a sequel to Dune? If you watch the movie you see how it ends. I think you pretty much know the answer to that," WarnerMedia Studios and Networks Chair and CEO Ann Sarnoff told Deadline yesterday in a sit-down chat regarding the conglom's full support of Dune 2.

Just watched it thought it was good. The word was gorgeous and was pleasantly surprised that the plot was easy to follow. Only downside is, will it do well so we get Part2? I really hope so. Hope it don't end up like "Battle Angel Alita" were we are left waiting for a sequel because it bombed at the box office. Hopefully it will do well so we can part 2. The is alot of times were not much happen like mostly dialogue ect but the world of Dune makes up for any boring parts. I would of also, liked to of seen more stuff from the bad guys especially Stella Skarsgard character, he seemed a very interesting bad guy. Anyhow I'm sure we will get more in part 2 if it happens fingers crossed.
Pros
The world
The characters and houses
The music
The Director
Why I watched this at home since I currently have Covid I really wish I seen it on the big screen.
Cons
Only Part 1
Slow burn in some parts
The fighting, wish they upped the gore just a tiny bit. Like alot of the fighting scenes looked too toned down with the action and kills.

Agreed on the music...there were some pieces I thought fit but then the whole "Ahhhhhhhhhhh" girl singing threw me off completely. It felt like it came outta nowhere and was kinda cheesy for me personally.
The first half of that movie I completely loved. The visuals and set design were pretty good.
The second half was good but lost some of its pacing. And I think they could've done more with the overal fighting but all I'm all, pretty solid movie!

This review from The New Yorker echoes my thoughts:
QuoteIt's surprising how cheesy the new "Dune" looks. Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the adaptation of Frank Herbert's 1965 novel seems less like a C.G.I. spectacle than a production still waiting for its backgrounds to be digitally filled in or its sets to be built. David Lynch's version of "Dune," from 1984, was a profuse film, teeming with sets and costumes as intricate as they were overwhelming, making extended and startling use of optical effects, and, in general, displaying an urgent will to turn the fantasy worlds of the story, which is set in the year 10191, into physical and visceral experiences. Villeneuve's interests appear to lie elsewhere. He puts the drama and plot first, avoiding details that could be distractions and appearances that aren't explained (or explained away) in dialogue or action. The bareness with which he depicts the story doesn't resemble the shoestring production values of nineteen-fifties sci-fi cheapies, but it instead suggests merely a failure of imagination, an inability to go beyond the ironclad dictates of a script and share with viewers the wonders and terrors of impossible worlds.

I really liked the first half of this movie. The world building was fun and interesting, the sets were unique, even though you could barely see them half the time. Apparently, light bulbs aren't a thing in the future. :-\ I liked the characters and the story but then it just starts to drag and drag, too many scenes of the characters just wondering the desert, trying to get to the Fremen, something that would have taken a few minutes in most movies. But then I remembered this is only part one which means they stretched it out on purpose. By the end, the movie didn't conclude in any meaningful way, it just stopped and said "see you next time." And I'm pretty sure there won't be a next time. shame. I really like Denis Villeneuve; Arrival was my favorite film of 2016 and Blade Runner: 2049 was my favorite film of 2017, this one just let me down.

Yep. And if a laser does hit a shield, the reaction between the two causes a massive explosion.
It only just dawned on me, with you asking that question, that the film didn't explicitly state that. :D

Love Toto's score.
I will say, though, that as someone that's not usually into Zimmer's work – I actually really liked this new score. I found it to be a major improvement over 2049's.

I'm thrilled with this. This guy is turning out to be my favorite director it seems! Loved what he did with Bladerunner 2049, love what he did with Dune as well. I haven't read the books, but you know he did a great job when he inspired me to read them and that doesn't happen often. Even though I liked the old Dune, I wasn't that captivated by it. You can feel how much love is put into this movie! The cast was great, almost perfect, the visuals were stunning. I really like the director's style, his visual eye, this guy can do Sci Fi in an epic way.
The score was interesting, as a musician myself, I'm not a fan of Zimmer generally cause his tracks can sound very generic to me, but this had great moments. Though the folk voice going all epic was overused a bit, still not bad. The movie has captivated my imagination and I'm so happy to see something like this! I hope they make many more movies with this creative team. I'm glad it was financially stronger than Bladerunner which broke my heart that it didn't make enough money being so expensive to make, long and uncompromising in vision.
Overall, this was crazy good for my taste. Damn, I can't wait for the next one!

Because Frank Herbert didn't want it to be too sci-fi. It's "soft" sci-fi, not "hard" sci-fi.

I ain't read the novels ect.. But I remember reading a few days ago and I can't remember were? That the body Shields they wear is good enough to stop fast moving objects like projectiles and Lazer beams. But the body armour shield is weak against slow-moving objects like knives daggers etc? That's why the prefer fighting with knives and spears and daggers. Anyhow don't take my word for it I'm no Dune expert by any means, it was something I read a few days ago.

One logical criticism of the concept itself about the shields. I get the idea of the slow blade piercing the shield, but why not combine the forcefield with great futuristic body armor made of materials that's impervious to blades? Blunt heavy weapons would still do damage, but sharp stuff would be useless.

Has anyone seen Jodorowsky's Dune documentary? Some people dislike and slate David Lynch's movie, which I think is great, but Jodorowsky's version of the film sounds like a psychedelic mess and I'm glad his version fell through. There are some details about Jodorowsky's Dune script here: Clicky (https://www.duneinfo.com/unseen/jodorowskys-dune-uncovered)

Cinema needs more psychedelic messes, to be honest.
I'm glad it fell through for different, selfish reasons - namely, that Alien (and so many other projects that would come to be in the following years) was in a sense born from its ashes - but I also have to say, I would have loved to have seen Jodorowsky's version of the film. I don't think it would have been Dune in the way that Denis' film just so perfectly "gets" the book, but it would have been something fascinating in its own right (which is a sentiment I share about Lynch's movie as well).
The documentary is a pretty great watch as well.

I'm actually of the opposite mindset on this one - I usually don't care for Zimmer much at all, and thought that 2049's score was fine sound design but couldn't hold a candle to Vangelis' work on the original, but I actually shockingly liked Dune's score quite a bit more than I ever expected to.

Thoughts on both Lynch and Villeneuve versions -
Spoiler
Start off by saying I like about the first half of the Lynch version, up until Paul and his mom get lost in the desert. Then it's like the story doesn't know how to keep up with itself. I guess Villeneuve feels the same way because his version ends right as Paul is accepted by the desert people. I wasn't sure if it needed to be two parts at all (just give me a great big long version plus extended edition), but now it feels right.
I like some of the designs/visuals in the Lynch version as well, but it certainly doesn't look as good or has aged as well compared to stuff like Alien or Blade Runner. Villeneuve's version looks/sounds great (with his bizarre sense of sci-fi minimalism) with a scale and immensity almost (almost) comparable to LOTR
Dune 2021 is about as good as a Dune adaptation could be, in the same way Blade Runner 2049 is about as good as a Blade Runner sequel could be.

Do you think the Lynch version did anything better?
Haven't seen the new Dune yet, so I'm picking my way very carefully thru this thread 8)
Although I'm a big fan of the Frank Herbert novel, one thing I'm not so keen on is the 3rd person omniscient narrative style. From paragraph to paragraph you can jump from one person's POV to another (giving you each character's stream of consciousness); and then there'll be a POV jump to the next character, and then the next, and so on. I found this quite disruptive.
Compare this to Alex White's the Cold Forge for contrast, where the main characters get whole chapters devoted to exclusively their points of view,. When something happens that deeply affects another character White notably resists the temptation to cut to that new person's POV. Contrary to what you might think, rather than distance you from the characters it has the reverse effect, deeply embedding you in each characters' subjectivity.
Now to Lynch's Dune: His attempt to emulate the novel's POV style by over-dubbing characters' stream of consciousness as voice-overs just felt like clumsy on-the-nose storytelling. For me anyway.
In other respects, I enjoyed the old Dune very much.

After a couple of run-throuģhs I think it's a 7 maybe a 7.5 for me. Think 2049 is definitely the better film of the two. 2049's soundtrack is infinitely better, though Dune's not bad either. Gets a bit bland from time to time.
Don't really love the upbeat "ending". Think I would've actually preferred a cliffhanger type here or maybe an(other) apokalyptic vision..
The writing in general doesn't strike me as super good..
Nonetheless looking forward for Part 2

Denis Villeneuve Updates On Dune Part Two; Promises 'Much More Harkonnen Stuff' – Exclusive
https://www.empireonline.com/movies/news/denis-villeneuve-updates-dune-part-two-harkonnen-exclusive/
QuoteEver since the credits rolled on Dune last year, we've been dying to return to Arrakis and see the next part of Paul Atreides' story. The good news is, it's officially happening – director Denis Villeneuve got the green light to complete his adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi epic after the success of the now Oscar- and BAFTA-nominated first instalment, with a proposed October 2023 release date for Dune: Part Two. There's plenty of the tale left to tell – and Villeneuve is raring to go.
Speaking to Empire in the upcoming Moon Knight issue, the filmmaker offered an update on the much-anticipated second film. "We are supposed to shoot by the end of the summer," he says. "I will say it is mostly designed. The thing that helps us right now is that it's the first time I've revisited a universe. So I'm working with the same crew, everybody knows what to do, we know what it will look like. The movie will be more challenging, but we know where we are stepping. And the screenplay is written. So I feel confident. Frankly, the only big unknown for me right now is the pandemic."
While splitting Herbert's book in two offered more time to establish Dune's world of fractured alliances, hard-fought resources, and exploited indigenous communities, Villeneuve still had to make tough decisions – including losing Gurney Halleck's baliset – in the first film. But in Part Two, there's a chance to bring certain things back to the surface. "When you adapt, you have to make bold choices in order for the things to come to life. And I think that was the best way to introduce this world to a wide audience. Now in the second one, I want to have more flexibility, and it will be possible to go a little bit deeper into some of these details," he explains. That includes introducing characters like Feyd-Rautha – as the focus of the story shifts to characters who played a smaller part last time around. "It's like a chess game. Some new characters will be introduced in the second part and a decision I made very early on was that this first part would be more about Paul Atreides and the Bene Gesserit, and his experience of being in contact for the first time with a different culture," says Villeneuve. "Second part, there will be much more Harkonnen stuff."
Most of all, Villeneuve sounds ready to go back and bask in the sands of Arrakis once more. "I just want to experience it, be present with it, every single moment of it," he says. "When I shoot a film, I shoot it like all my movies, as if it's the last one. I will do the same with Part Two." See you in the foyer in October 2023 with a box of Spice-covered popcorn.

The closing paragraph of the article is of particular interest:
QuoteI'm finishing the screenplay now, and we expect to be shooting by summer, which is practically tomorrow morning. With the first half of Dune, the toughest part was introducing the world and laying down the rules. Now just the fun of the story is left. I'm always very cautious discussing movies that are in the making; they're full of fragile ideas. But the second one will definitely be more visual and less dialogue-driven. And, hopefully, there will be another film after that. Dune Messiah, Herbert's second novel in this universe, would make total sense as a third movie because it completes Paul Atreides's arc. I want to make part two as fast as possible, then I will wait a few years—until Timothée Chalamet gets a bit older—to do the final installment.

Quote from: Denis Villeneuve"The truth is that one thing that helped me tremendously to direct Timothée [Chalamet] is, my son had cooked a banana cake a few months before we shot the movie, and the banana cake was very 'spicy' and I had the worst bad trip of my life. But it tremendously helped me, it sounds stupid, but it's good to experience things yourself sometimes. That bad trip, on marijuana, deeply helped me to direct Timothée in the visions, to explain to him the state I was looking for. And, strangely, when I mentioned the banana cake experience to Timothee, he got it. Here's the truth. Don't try this!"

Was that scene full CGI btw, maybe except TC's face? And the Holy Warriors on Caladan too? It looked (mainly the movements, I think) a bit fakey from time to time but overall pretty well done.
I liked the brightness and clarity of it in opposition to the washiness and dark blurriness you often get when visions are displayed.
It all felt like happening on a cloudless chilly day, shortly after sunrise. Cognition.

That's crazy. For decades it has been the golden rule of film journalism never to broach the subject of Dune during a Lynch interview.
It's akin to David Fincher saying he want's to do an Alien 3 directors cut.

Just come from watching The Northman and I'm pretty awed by it. I gotta say a not so small part of me wishes right now Eggers would've gotten the chance to direct the new Dune films.
His overall directional style, his handling of the weirder/phantastic sections, the way he creates suspense, dark atmosphere, portrays violence without entering gore territory.. All this stuff yet you never get the feeling that it's too much and the film leaves the realistic guard rails of it's approach. Would've been perfect for Dune imo.
Btw it's not that I'm unhappy with what DV gave us. It just feels a lot safer than what Eggers did here (and his is still a long and epic approach overall). It's the bit extra over the top that DV's Dune interpretation lacks (in parts) for me. And I don't mean Jodorowsky or even Lynch style. Just one or two scenes that punch you a bit more in the face or something like that.. I dunno maybe in the end my main problem is the different rating here?
But yea, everyone go see The Northman nauw.
Oh Lord and thaaaat soundtrack..

Can't help but think that HBO Max axed "Raised By Wolves" and moved the funds to finance this series.
On a prequel side note, Boom Comics adapted "House Atreides" into a 12 issue series with the same visual language from the film. They've also adapted a couple of short stories into one shots (Blood of Sardakaur and A Whisper of Calladan Seas). I'd never read any of the Dune novels so this prequel really helped me identify and remember all the different houses/factions/players/planets etc and therefore enhanced the viewing experience on my most recent watch of the film due to a better understanding of the world(s). So I'd highly recommend reading them.

'Dune Part 2': Léa Seydoux To Play Lady Margot In Upcoming Sequel For Legendary
https://deadline.com/2022/06/dune-part-2-lea-seydoux-to-play-lady-margot-in-upcoming-sequel-for-legendary-1235048753/
I wasn't expecting this character to even appear in the adaptation, so hearing that she will be in it is incredibly exciting, and I really love Léa Seydoux.
I guess this also means we'll be seeing Count Fenring. Wonder who they're going to get to play him?

Don't even roughly remember Fenring's book age, but I would just love to see John Malkovich make an appearance in this.. always thought he would've made a fantastic Emperor too.

I want a Dune prequel set in, like, 1965 or something. Something with just the barest, most tenuous links to the later Dune timeline, like some random background character's name in the credits ends up being "Harkonnen" or something.

'Dune' Prequel Series at HBO Max Casts Emily Watson, Shirley Henderson
(https://variety.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Emily-Watson-Shirley-Henderson.jpg?w=681&h=383&crop=1)
QuoteThe "Dune" prequel series at HBO Max from Legendary Television has cast Emily Watson and Shirley Henderson in lead roles, Variety has learned.
Officially titled "Dune: The Sisterhood," the series was ordered at HBO Max in June 2019. The show is set 10,000 years before the events of "Dune" and is based on the novel "Sisterhood of Dune" by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. Per the official logline, the show "follows the Harkonnen Sisters as they combat forces that threaten the future of humankind, and establish the fabled sect known as the Bene Gesserit"
Watson will play Valya Harkonnen and Henderson will play Tula Harkonnen. The character descriptions say the two sisters "have risen to power in the Sisterhood, a secret organization of women who will go on to become the Bene Gesserit."
Watson is a two-time best actress Oscar nominee — one for her work in "Breaking the Waves" and another for "Hilary and Jackie." Her other film credits include "Gosford Park," "Red Dragon," and "The Book Thief." In television, she earned an Emmy nomination for her supporting role in the hit HBO limited series "Chernobyl." She has also starred in shows like "The Third Day," "Genius," and the 2017 miniseries version of "Little Women."
She is repped by Independent Talent Group, UTA, and Schreck Rose.
Henderson is perhaps best known to American audiences for playing Moaning Myrtle in the films "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" and "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," as well as for her roles in the "Bridget Jones" franchise. Henderson has also starred in films like "Trainspotting," "Okja," and "24 Hour Party People."
She is repped by Hamilton Hodell and Goodman Genow.
Variety exclusively reported that Diane Ademu-John is the creator, co-showrunner, and executive producer on "Dune: The Sisterhood." Alison Schapker serves as co-showrunner and executive producer. Johan Renck will direct the premiere episode and executive produce. Renck previously worked with Watson on "Chernobyl."
Denis Villeneuve, Jon Spaihts, Scott Z. Burns, Matthew King, John Cameron and Cait Collins executive produce with Brian Herbert, Byron Merritt and Kim Herbert for the Frank Herbert estate. Anderson serves as co-producer. The series is co-produced by HBO Max and Legendary TV.
Legendary is also producing the recent film reboot of "Dune." The first of the two planned films was released in October 2021, grossing just over $400 million worldwide. The sequel is currently in production and is expected to be released in November 2023. Villeneuve is the director of both films, with Spaihts and Villeneuve writing the screenplays of both films as well.
"Dune" won six Academy Award nominations after its release, and also received nominations for best picture and best adapted screenplay.

I finally got to see this. It shares many scenes with the much maligned 80s film. That film was terribly boring and this one isn't much better in that regard. Not a bad film but Not really my cup of tea either. Really cool spaceships and overall art though. The worms were spectacular as well.
the 80s films feels very amateur compared to this one.
I'll probably watch it again on tv someday.

Rather dreary in terms of visuals. I think the mini-series did better in terms of production design, although what Jodorowsky had in mind looks intriguing.
As for the content, I think any adaptation is more proper for a mini-series, and storytelling has to be tightened because it's done visually.

Welp...
Reading through the article, and it seems that the main point of contention between WB/HBO Max and Schapker is that his work on the show so far hasn't looked/felt like Villeneuve's work on the film but like... shouldn't that be the point? It's a whole different story set in a different time/place than the film. I don't want it to be one to one what we're getting from Denis on the big screen. Let this exist on its own merits and tell its own story within this world, in its own way.
Quick, while Travis Fimmel's schedule is open for a while again, someone call up Aaron Guzikowski and get Raised By Wolves season 3 back on track.

Nah, I wouldn't say salty. Dune was an absolutely miserable experience on set for Lynch, the only film he's made he didn't have total control over and it kind of sticks out like a sore thumb in his body of work as a result. I can't imagine he'd really want to think about delve into anything with the association to that now, nor have it brought up to him in an interview like this. It'd be like cornering Fincher and asking him what he thinks of Blomkamp's alternate Alien 3 ideas.
I enjoy Lynch's Dune for what it is (even though it pretty much derails in the second half, and it doesn't really have a grip on its source material), especially visually (there's really nothing else that looks like that movie, and it's really something to behold in that regard), and can totally see what he was going for with the project, but I also totally get him wanting to keep it as far out of his mind as possible and I don't blame him for that at all.

It's a mess, but a very interesting one. As a curiosity, I do definitely recommend it. It actually adapts the first half of the book (pretty much what was in Denis' first film) pretty well, though after that it tries to cram the remainder of the novel into roughly 40 minutes of screentime and ooh boy did it need some space to breathe there. Lynch also didn't seem to totally get (or, more likely, didn't seem to totally care about) some of the logistics of what's going on with the novel, namely the ecology of Arrakis and the nature of "prophecy" in this world (the rain sequence in his film is pretty funny if you know what that would actually do to the planet, the worms, and the spice in the books), and there's a lot of really stilted, awkward voiceover to convey exposition, lore, etc. but I can't really bring myself to dislike the movie, even with the film's many problems being as prominent as they are (and I totally get why Lynch would resent the film and the experience he had making it). It orbits this weird space between being a David Lynch movie and being a Dune adaptation and it's pretty much the worst example of column A and column B in that chart, but it's also this real anomaly that kind of has to be seen. It's a really neat, perplexing little oddity.
Also, the worms look phenomenal. Like, 1:1 like they came right off of the book covers. Carlo Rambaldi's work is impeccable there. His work on the Navigator is also excellent. The production design across the board is incredible.
Man, after talking about it I'm actually getting myself in the mood to revisit this thing again I think...

I don't know much about 40K outside of its overall aesthetic, but just visually... this does seem to track.

I haven't seen the extended version, but if I'm not mistaken I think that cut originally aired on TV so that might be why that particularly gruesome moment was censored? I know Lynch had no input on that extended version and doesn't recognize it as being his film.

Villeneuve is quickly becoming one of my all-time favorite directors.
Arrival, fantastic
Blade Runner 2049, fantastic
Dune part 1, fantastic
I am absolutely overjoyed that he's adapting 'Rendezvous with Rama', I've been waiting for an adaptation of that for like 20+ years, ever since David Fincher said he was going to do one with Morgan Freeman.

It just fries my mind that the IMAX scenes in Dune weren't preserved for their home release, since WB is usually pretty good about that sort of thing.
Part Two shot 100% in the IMAX format. Gonna be pretty bummed if the only home release ends up cropped...

My guess is that it's going to be the opening scene of the film (presented potentially as a flashback out of real time, since it'll probably have happened during the events of the first one), so that we end the first movie on Paul's duel with Jamis (and his reluctance to kill there) and then immediately start Part Two with the brutality of Feyd in the fighting pits to directly contrast the two.
Absolutely loving the visualization of it in black and white.
No sign of Alia yet, I'm super curious to see how she's realized on screen.
Also, Water of Life:

One thing that was neat in the draft I read of the first film is that there's a minor named character who gets captured during Duncan's raid on the Baron's spice supplies, and it says right in the script that he'll be the one to fight Feyd. Shame that whole sequence was cut.

Like that theory. Or could this be connected to the two year time gap? Like some sort of (visualised) Intermission or something?

Could be used there, yeah, though I guess if that were the case, we probably wouldn't be seeing Feyd at all before the time jump since the duel here is almost surely his introduction. However, I kind of expect the time jump to actually happen during the Water of Life sequence, with Jessica's visions there bridging us from one point in time to the next.

Ja, utilising Jessica's Water of Life ceremony and her visions for this makes the most sense, I guess. I don't think we'll get another narration sequence (like in Lynch's film), since DV already used one in the very beginning.
I'm not sure though he would want a flashback and a timejump scene both in "one" film though? But yea the timejump is the vision is the timejump this may work just fine actually.
Home in a hour cannnnot wait

Also: could it just be the natural light on Giedi Prime? Like their sun's a white giant or something something. Would also further explain their general mind-set ;)
Actually pretty clever solution to get on top of the worm. Always worried a bit how they handle this delicate stuff (remember the scene in Lynch's version? :laugh:)

Yea, in theory ok. But from a more visual standpoint I was never too convinced that is a good idea to show how one approaches these beasts at ground level without being crushed or buried under tons of sand.. They are Fremen though (but not Legolas) ;)

Ok just couple of things I don't like too much (always something ;) ):
Paul re-using Jamis' line in his fight with Feyd.
I feel like I know (and actually have seen) every important beat of the wormriding sequence. Hope I'm wrong
Too much daylight. I demand more darkness, more Sietch atmosphere, more desperation and fatality. Maybe a second trailer will focus more on the brooding dark esoteric elements that hopefully are also part of Dune: Part Part
And to end with a super controversial one: I don't love the shot of the last fight. I should love it but it doesn't really click with me. Won't say it looks generic, but I don't find it too creative either.
Yea overall small things here and there, I suppose
Love love love the GP black and white hell (whatever it ultimately turns out to be). Artsy and menacing, some unique shit

I honestly wouldn't be shocked if the second trailer ends up building itself around the Water of Life/time jump angle (and probably showcasing a bit more of the Harkonnen and maybe even Emperor side of the story as well), and if so I'd expect that one to take on a bit of a darker tone overall; this trailer definitely felt like it was welcoming the audience back to this world, and building itself all around the worm riding sequence. But there's a lot of darker elements of what Paul as a leader here actually means that I fully expect the upcoming promo materials (and absolutely the film itself) to start delving into, given how much Denis seems to want to adapt Messiah as well. There are hints of it near the end of the trailer, with Jessica and Paul's exchange: "We gave them something to hope for." "That's not hope!"
As far as "brooding and dark" goes, I'm also quite excited for when we eventually get to see how Alia and her big moment near the end of the book is handled.

I've actually only read up to Children, so I'm thinking this time I might actually finally read all six of Frank's novels.

He has given several different reasons in different interviews so far:
1. The untimely death of his brother.
2. Loss of interest in subject matter "why am I doing this?"
3. Mexico was too "pongy" for his tastes and he didn't want to "rough it".

I'm glad it didn't happen. I love practical effects but nowadays technology makes certain things way easier and they can look better if used properly. I don't think you could make proper Dune movie without CGI.
It might have ended up like Lynch's Dune. According to him "it was slow dying the death and terrible, terrible experience".

I love a lot of stuff about Lynch's Dune (although I'm admittedly a bit biased as a big Lynch fanboy), but it is without a doubt a flawed film and adaptation. Makes me sad to know it was a bad experience for him and he ultimately sees the film as a blight in his great filmography. Would have loved to see his version with full control and final cut.
I'm actually going to be seeing a 35mm screening of it at a David Lynch retrospective this month and I'm looking forward to revisiting it and for it to get my more hyped for the villeneuve version

Dear Esteemed Members of the Dune Thread,
Greetings to you all, and I trust this message finds you at your best. The reason for this communication is a matter close to the heart of our community's ethos - the protection and respect of each individual's journey through the incredible world of Frank Herbert's Dune.
We have been made aware that one among us, our esteemed fellow member 'kwisatz', is on the precipice of a grand journey into the magnificent expanse of Dune's intricate universe. Unlike many of us, who have already navigated the vast, sandy terrains of Arrakis, explored the far-reaching corners of the cosmos, and unravelled the intricacies of the saga's complex socio-political webs, kwisatz is at the dawn of this exploration.
In essence, kwisatz stands at the foot of an immense sand dune, prepared to traverse its uncharted landscapes, guided only by the sparse but enticing summaries on the dust jackets of the Dune series. The film adaptation is kwisatz's first step into this unknown, an initiation into a saga that we all hold dear. We have a unique opportunity to support this voyage and to contribute to preserving the sheer wonder and exhilaration that accompanies this initial discovery.
It is therefore of the utmost importance, dear friends, that we nurture this innocence and protect the nascent sense of wonder in kwisatz as he begins this journey. We must guard against the inadvertent revelation of spoilers, ensuring that his first encounter with the Dune saga, through the film, remains an untainted experience.
With this heartfelt plea, I request your active participation in ensuring a spoiler-free environment for kwisatz. Let us abide by the time-honored etiquette of fandom and refrain from disclosing any plot details or twists, from either the film or the subsequent books. Let's use spoiler alerts judiciously, giving kwisatz, and others like him, the opportunity to skip content that might prematurely reveal aspects of the story.
In conclusion, dear members, our collective love for Dune binds us together. We are caretakers of this shared passion, and it is incumbent upon us to foster an environment where each of us, like kwisatz, can experience the sheer magic of our first journey through the sands of Arrakis.
May we continue to honor the rich tapestry of Dune, respecting each individual's unique journey through its vast deserts and star-lit galaxies. Let the spice flow freely, but let it flow with consideration and respect.
Thank you for your understanding, cooperation, and dedication to preserving the magic of Dune for all.
Yours in Dune,

Could just be doing a bit of a pass over a few elements of the script that Denis & Spaihts couldn't quite crack in their draft, rather than whole new scenes from scratch, since in the article seems to imply that the work Mazin did on Part Two is essentially what used to pass as an uncredited rewrite.
Though in the past Mazin has been brought in to assist on sort of ancillary elements in movies like this as well. He helped Rian Johnson write the opening crawl for The Last Jedi, for example.
I'd imagine that we'll probably get some more specific details on what his involvement actually was once the movie is out, though.

Loving seeing more of the Water of Life sequence. Baron Harkonnen floating around in the wide shot rocks. Denis is leaning HARD into the reality of the prophecy here, it's no surprise at all that he wants to adapt Messiah.
EDIT: Also, that shot of the worm emerging behind Paul... man, the final battle is gonna own so hard.

The worm rising behind Paul makes me think quite the opposite – I think we're going to be seeing full on worm assault action.
EDIT: Watching the trailer again and one thing that really stands out to me is the shift in Chani's portrayal from this portion of the book. She's much less a zealot here (whereas they are very much doubling down on that angle with Stilgar, which is pretty pivotal to his arc). I think this is a change that's going to work in the movie's benefit as we explore the different contrasting outlooks on who/what "Muad'dib" actually is (especially as it potentially all feeds into whatever Denis has up his sleeve in a potential Dune: Messiah adaptation to round out a trilogy).

QuoteA sich (Ukrainian: січ), [1] was an administrative and military centre of the Zaporozhian Cossacks. The word sich derives from the Ukrainian verb сікти siktý, "to chop" – with the implication of clearing a forest for an encampment or of building a fortification with the trees that have been chopped down.[2]
The Zaporozhian Sich was the fortified capital of the Zaporozhian Cossacks, located on the Dnieper, in the 16th–18th centuries in the area of what is now Ukraine. The Sich Rada was the highest organ of government in the Zaporozhian Host, or army of the Zaporozhian Cossacks. The Danubian Sich was the fortified settlement of those Zaporozhian Cossacks who later settled in the Danube Delta.

I've only read up to Children, myself. I didn't find Messiah to be all that different from the first one, though; it almost feels like a "10 years later" epilogue to Dune to me, so I do get Denis kind of envisioning these two books as one complete trilogy.
Children, on the other hand, feels like a full on sequel with a tone/style all its own. And from what I understand of the next three, those do as well. If Children and beyond ever get adapted, I don't think Denis would really be the right fit for them (nor do I think he has any interest beyond Messiah).

Yeah, it's a bit of downer after the ending of the first book. Don't know if it's a good idea to make a third film of the second book. Don't think general audiences are going to like the tone.

It's mostly just Paul philosophizing about his impending doom, since he can see it coming but unable to change his destiny. There's not much action either.

After rewatching the recent trailer a couple more times I tend to expect quite the action packed ride with way less calmer more atmospheric sequences (could be to lure in general audience I know). A bit like a FotR vs RotK type of scenario.
This kindaa leads me to the feeling I could end up liking the first one more than the second.
Yea just a gut feeling though well see.

I read Dune and Messiah a few times when I was younger and always loved them. I had a soft spot for the miniseries also. I read a lot of the following books, cant remember all of them, i know I read God Emperor. Anyway they are all very down hill after the first.
However I still havent seen Villeneuve's Dune yet. I really like his other films but the look of his Dune has just never grabbed me, even this second trailer doesnt spark much interest in me. I will make it a point to try and watch the first one though, deserves a shot.

I guess a lot of the cast is Equity, not SAG, and the Equity cast members will be the ones continuing to film from the sound of it.
I didn't even know production on this thing was starting up again any time soon. I thought the pilot rewrites were still being held up by the WGA strike, unless I missed a report that it had finished its hiatus rewrites some time before that strike kicked off.

Although I would've loved to see that scene, for the film as a whole it's probably better they decided to cut it out. Kinda would've taken the last bit of tension from the final fight to show one of Paul's teachers dominating their best fighter without even a weapon literally five minutes before it's about to take place.

Based on the character names, The Sisterhood does seem in part to be drawing on one of those novels, but with quite a bit of invention/fabrication of its own. I wouldn't be shocked if it just kind of takes some names/ideas and runs with them in a totally new direction, honestly.
Though I am also incredibly wary about this project in general, after the massive shakeup while shooting the pilot...

Dune: Part Two moving to March must also mean that we're really in this for the long haul, if the WB isn't seeing a resolution in time to start promoting the film for its November release. Warner Bros (and all the rest of the studios, too) has totally dug its feet in the dirt and is just refusing to budge or hear either Guild's demands in any capacity right now... :-\ f**k all of the big studios and their heads at this point, this is so vile and moving Dune: Part Two into next year like this is another shitty maneuver on their part to put all of the bargaining chips right where they want them in order to try to weaponize the strikes in their own advantage; I really hope move backfires on WB and the rest studios.
This is also twice over now that Denis Villeneuve is getting f**ked over by Warner Bros on a Dune release. Obviously the first one had to move because of COVID, but then after that WB ended up saddling it with the day and date HBO Max release. Chris Nolan already walked away from Warner Bros. I wonder if Denis could end up being next?

Paul does literally compare himself to Hitler, though he recognizes that Hitler's number of killed victims is minuscule when compared to his own.
If Denis does get to make Messiah like he wants to, that kind of thing is going to be very explicit moving forward. A lot of the first book's subtext about the fallacy of hero worship is being pushed heavily into the forefront in the Dune: Part Two trailers, and all of that subtext is very much made text in Messiah.

Austin Butler's Feyd-Rautha In Dune: Part Two Is 'A Cross Between A Psychopath Killer, A Snake, And Mick Jagger' – Exclusive Image

QuoteWhen Dune: Part Two arrives, there's plenty for Timothée Chalamet's Paul Atreides to be worried about. For one, he's going to have to prove himself among the Fremen people, and not mess things up with Zendaya's Chani – his literal dream-girl. He's expected to try and ride a giant marauding sandworm in the Arrakis desert at some point. And he'll have to avoid becoming some kind of messianic dictator too, as war looms with the Harkonnens. As if that wasn't enough, this time he also has an assassin after him – enter Feyd-Rautha, the ferocious and unpredictable force that was, famously, rendered in 'Sting in a space-nappy' form in David Lynch's adaptation.
Not here, though. In the second half of Denis Villeneuve's Frank Herbert adaptation, the fearsome Feyd-Rautha is played by none other than Austin Butler – shorn of all his hair, and firmly out of Elvis mode. It sounds like Paul will have his work cut out for him. "Austin brought something that is a cross between a psychopath killer, an Olympic sword master, a snake, and Mick Jagger," Villeneuve tells Empire in our world-exclusive Dune: Part Two cover story, promising a wild performance from the Oscar-nominated star. "He has tremendous sex appeal and charisma and madness. It's really out there."
The bald-headed Butler isn't the only fresh face for Part Two – also joining the cast this time are Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan, and Christopher Walken as the mysterious Emperor Shaddam IV. But perhaps most intriguingly, Léa Seydoux is on board as Bene Gesserit sister Lady Fenring – a character with a minimal presence in Herbert's book, but for whom Villeneuve has bigger plans. "I don't want to talk too much about Lady Fenring," he teases. "She's part of the spider web of the Bene Gesserit, but I want to keep the mystery around her." Either way, the secretive sisterhood is a key part of the director's fascination with Herbert's world. "My version of Dune is different because the thing that really seduced me about the book was the Bene Gesserit," he says. "My adaptation is more oriented toward their impact – they are the puppet masters of the universe!" You'd hate to be caught in their strings – especially with Feyd-Rautha gunning for you.

Denis Villeneuve Teases Possible Dune: Part Three Based On Dune Messiah: 'There Are Words On Paper' – Exclusive
(https://images.bauerhosting.com/empire/2023/08/dune-messiah.jpg?ar=16%3A9&fit=crop&crop=top&auto=format&w=1200&q=80)
(https://images.bauerhosting.com/empire/2023/08/dune-messiah.jpg?ar=16%3A9&fit=crop&crop=top&auto=format&w=1200&q=80)
QuoteFrom the beginning, Denis Villeneuve's plan for Dune was to adapt Frank Herbert's original tome as an epic two-part movie experience. And thankfully, given the success of Dune back in 2021, he got the green light to complete his adaptation with this year's Dune: Part Two. So far, so good. But as Dune completists know, the story doesn't end there. Herbert continued the story of Arrakis in a series of subsequent novels, before his son Brian took over to continue it even further – and if Part Two performs well too, Villeneuve might not be done with the sand (or the sandworms) quite yet.
Rumours have swirled that Villeneuve could be eyeing up more Dune for the big screen – and, as he tells Empire in our world-exclusive Dune: Part Two cover story, that is indeed the case. "If I succeed in making a trilogy, that would be the dream," he says. Part Three, then, would consist of Dune Messiah, Herbert's direct follow-up to Dune. "Dune Messiah was written in reaction to the fact that people perceived Paul Atreides as a hero," Villeneuve explains. "Which is not what he wanted to do. My adaptation [of Dune] is closer to his idea that it's actually a warning." If it does happen, the Messiah-spanning Dune: Part Three would mark the end of Villeneuve's time on Arrakis. "After that the books become more... esoteric," he says.
And while any future Dune sequels once again hinge on the box office results of Part Two, Villeneuve's plans for Part Three aren't just nebulous thoughts. "I will say, there are words on paper," he teases. Fingers crossed, there will eventually be images on a screen too.

Dune: Part Two Will Have Gurney Halleck Playing The Baliset: 'It Became A Weird Priority For Me,' Says Denis Villeneuve – Exclusive
(https://images.bauerhosting.com/empire/2023/08/gurney.jpg?ar=16%3A9&fit=crop&crop=top&auto=format&w=992&q=80)
(https://images.bauerhosting.com/empire/2023/08/gurney.jpg?ar=16%3A9&fit=crop&crop=top&auto=format&w=992&q=80)
QuoteFor the most part, Denis Villeneuve's take on Dune was everything fans of Frank Herbert's epic tome could ask for. Even though it only covered half of the original novel, he did justice to the fall of House Atreides, nailed the awe-inspiring heft of the sandworms, carefully lined up the cascading dominoes that fuel the swirling political plot – and even made it so that Spice was visibly glimmering in the air on Arrakis. But there was one detail from the novel that didn't make it to the screen first time around – and if fans were sad to miss it, Villeneuve was even sadder.
That detail was, of course, the Baliset – the unusual musical instrument that's a particular favourite of Josh Brolin's warrior Gurney Halleck. While Villeneuve (and Hans Zimmer) gave us unexpected space bagpipes last time around, a scene shot for Dune in which Brolin's Halleck mournfully plucked at the Baliset's strings sadly ended up on the cutting room floor. But no more – speaking to Empire in our world-exclusive Dune: Part Two cover feature, the director confirms the Baliset is back, back, back in the follow-up. "The Gurney song survived Part Two!" he declares victoriously, the notion of bringing it to the screen clearly having played on his mind. "It became a weird priority for me. But Josh Brolin is a poet and we played it together. It was awesome."
Just, don't go expecting the Arrakis equivalent of the Eras Tour. Though there is one set of characters rather more attuned to the hedonistic life: those dastardly Harkonnens. "If there's a party somewhere that you want to attend, it's on [Harkonnen homeworld] Giedi Prime," Villeneuve laughs. "These guys know how to throw a party, but they are not meant to be on Arrakis. They hate the planet, they hate the people, they're just there for the money. That's where their weakness is." Sign us up for Gurney Halleck smashing Baron Harkonnen in the face with his Baliset, then. (That's official Dune canon, right?)

David Lynch's Original Dune Ending Would Have Been a Lot Weirder (and Better)
Before last-minute cuts to the special effects budget on David Lynch's Dune, the ending of the film was a lot more Lynchian.
Before last-minute cuts to the special effects budget on David Lynch's Dune, the ending of the film was a lot more Lynchian.
QuoteIn Frank Herbert's original Dune novel, the character Duke Leto Atreides is set up to fail. Awarded the mining rights to the arid planet Arrakis by a powerful emperor, and given a limited number of days to exploit them, Leto is sent to the desert essentially to die. And in the end, he should've known forces beyond his control were conspiring against him from the start.
One wonders whether back in 1984 if David Lynch felt he could relate. An already impressive directorial talent behind intriguing films like Eraserhead (1977) and The Elephant Man (1980), Lynch was a 34-year-old wunderkind when he was tapped by producer Dino De Laurentiis to direct, and eventually rewrite, Dune as a sci-fi epic intended to rival Star Wars. Yet through the vicissitudes of fate—as well as budget, location photography, and post-production studio mandates—the film that reached cinema screens was a fraction of his sprawling vision. It was also summarily dismissed by the critics of its day, with Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert placing it among their "Stinkers of 1984." Eventually, even Lynch took his name off an extended version (he had no editing oversight) when it was recut for television years later.
Nonetheless, the film's legacy has endured for a small, dedicated, and growing subsection of cineastes and sci-fi enthusiasts. These fans see the larger esoteric vision of Lynch's singular interpretation of Herbert's novel; they appreciate the weird flourishes that no other filmmaker would dare with a mainstream property; and they recognize a masterpiece in disarray.
Film journalist and author Max Evry believes that last bit so strongly, he made it the title of his book about Lynch's space opera, A Masterpiece in Disarray: David Lynch's Dune – An Oral History (for which, full disclosure, this writer participated in). Providing a panoramic view of the forces that transpired to make and unmake the film, the author likens his text to being both "an autopsy and a reclamation." And ahead of the oral history's release this week, Evry invited Den of Geek to glimpse one of the most curious elements that mutated during Dune's production: its ending.
In the finished film, Dune does not so much end as it runs out of footage. The way it plays out is Kyle MacLachlan's boyish hero Paul Atreides, now with glowing cerulean eyes, defeats the film's villains, José Ferrer as Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV and the pop musician Sting as a spiky-haired youth in revolt. Paul is then crowned emperor of the universe while declaring he speaks with the voice of God. As he states, "One cannot go against the Word of God," the skies open and for the first time in Arrakis' history, rains fall from the heavens in such a deluge that the film's closing credits are set against footage of a sea's rolling waves—suggesting Paul's will turned Arrakis into a paradise. Paul's little sister Alia Atreides (Alicia Witt) even gilds the lily with the final line of the movie: "And how can this be? For he is the Kwisatz Haderach!"
Dune ends on the literal declaration that Paul is a messiah who will bring peace and prosperity to Arrakis and the universe, and cuts to black before the characters (or the audience) have time to really process what just occurred. To call it a departure from Herbert's novel is an understatement. On the page, Paul's messianic complex is something to be feared, particularly in later installments of the literary series. He also cannot make it rain on command. However, as Evry reveals in both his book and in a new video he's assembled from early discarded storyboards on the production, it wasn't the ending Lynch wanted either...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcAQJsFK4yM
QuoteAs you can see in Evry's above storyboard footage, Lynch's earlier vision for Dune was something altogether more metaphysical. He even storyboarded what might be best described as a spiritual awakening or epiphany, with the camera flying into Paul's eye (which we see briefly in the finished film), only to enter his mind's eye, which is a cacophony of surrealist imagery. The evolved (and deformed) Space Guild navigators we met at the beginning of the film, and which implicitly seem to control the galaxy (as it is they who control the emperor), are reduced to angelic maggots pouring from Paul's eyes; the faces of revelation appear to him in the countenances of Alia and his mother Lady Jessica (Francesca Annis) as they in turn are submerged into the water of his dreams; and finally at the end of it all, a glowing gold lotus flower promises serenity.
Evry suggests this ending is truer to Lynch's artistic impulses, contrasting it directly to Twin Peaks, as well as a clearer example of what the auteur wanted to do with Herbert's novel.
"Just looking at the boards, it's very clear that this is a transcendental [revelation]," Evry says. "This is Paul transcending himself and all these disparate elements, like Jessica and Alia, and the navigators, and all this stuff coming together to turn him into what he is at the end of the film."
Evry also notes the golden lotus flower, an important image in Herbert's second novel in the series, Dune Messiah, was crucial to Lynch's vision for the ending of the film. "In all the drafts of the scripts that I read, only a little bit [of the ending] goes in Lynch's scripts," Evry explains, "a little bit about the light going off into infinity and the golden lotus at the end. Almost every draft ended with the golden lotus, even to the point where it felt almost shoehorned into the last draft. When he had to make it rain, he makes it rain, and then you see a golden lotus. It's like Lynch was really trying to get this golden lotus into the movie. It was important to him."
And yet, the golden lotus is not in the version we all know.
Over the years, including in a new interview in A Masterpiece in Disarray, Lynch has distanced himself not just from the film's post-production, but the whole process of making Dune. He repeatedly has suggested the approach was compromised from the start. However, as the storyboards prove, he at least had grander ideas than what ended up on the screen. The reasons that finale, like so much else, was cut comes down to the movie running over-budget and its most hands-on producer, Rafaella De Laurentiis, parting ways with Apogee Inc., the special effects house headed by John Dykstra of Star Wars (1977) and Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) fame.
Apogee had set up operation on Dune at the movie's production location in Churubusco, Mexico, where for three months the company constructed models, massive blue screens, and created numerous storyboards to Lynch's specifications. Yet at the eleventh hour, the De Laurentiis family decided to terminate Apogee's contract. Rafaela later told Starlog (via Masterpiece in Disarray), "It didn't work out because of the way [Dykstra's] operation works. I had no control over costs. I can't work unless I know where I'm putting my money... to know that if you spend those $10 on this, you'll get an effect on the screen worth $20."
The storyboards Evry assembled in this video—placing them in an order based on their numbering and the author's own intuition—come from a book of Apogee effects storyboards that were auctioned off in 2021 and later placed on Amazon for wider distribution. While he cannot be certain, Evry believes most of them were sketched by Mentor Huebner, the famed storyboard artist whose work includes Blade Runner (1982) and The Thing (1982).
"Cutting the video, you can see it," Evry says. "It almost looks like an animatic, the way he skillfully illustrated everything."
While Huebner stayed on the production separate from Apogee, the loss of Dykstra's special effects company signaled the beginning of Dune's post-production woes. While a talented visual effects artist named Barry Nolan and his Van der Veer Photo Effects company was hired to replace Apogee, the guiding star on the film became doing everything as cheaply as possible.
Looking back at those decisions nearly 40 years later, Evry says, "I think it was just the fact that they ate up a lot of the time and budget that they had working with Apogee and also making the rest of the film. Like the movie did go over-budget, and I think that cut into what they wanted to do with the effects, which is really shortsighted because, in a lot of ways, the movie sank or swam based on the effects."
This led to the far more basic and straightforward ending which occurs in the film, although even that appears unfinished. When Paul summons the floods, for instance, you'll notice his mouth opens but no words or sound come out. That's because the scene was scripted for there to be a great wind emerging from his throat (hence why the other characters' hats and gowns begin blowing). Says Evry, "I guess they just ran out of money."
Similarly, the entire third act climax was economized, with storyboards of the giant sandworms throwing their whole bodies against the shield wall and the emperor's golden-tented ship getting excised. The film's humbled ambitions can likewise be noticed in the scene where Duke Leto Atreides (Jürgen Prochnow) and Gurney Halleck (Patrick Stewart) speak of warning "the spotters" when watching an immense sandworm... but there are no spotters on the screen.
It's worth recognizing, however, that none of these last-minute compromises affected what might be the ending's most glaring issue for fans of Herbert's novels: how it turned Paul into a true prophesied messiah instead of a young man who takes advantage of a religion to glorify himself. Herbert famously stated he wrote Dune, in part, to make readers wary of charismatic leaders (Herbert was a Republican speechwriter in the 1950s who had an intense dislike of John F. Kennedy). But the ending of Lynch's film turns Paul into Space Jesus. According to Evry, this wasn't always Lynch's plan, but commercial considerations were made early on to lean into the boy hero iconography.
"I think [Lynch] flirted with it," Evry says. "Certainly drafts of this script have almost the opposite of the ending we got. They have like an ocean of blood to signify the jihad that Paul has sparked. But then the ending slowly gets more and more spiritual, focusing less on the terrible thing that Paul has done." He ultimately concludes, "When you're trying to make a two, two-hour-and-change movie, the simplest way to go would be just to make him a real messiah."
Still, Evry does not think the film's departures from the novel, or even Lynch's own distancing from it, should determine its legacy.
"There are so many Lynch fans out there who just dismiss it or see it as a footnote in Lynch's career," Evry says, "simply because he himself dismisses it. I mean, he has his own reasons to dismiss it, but he put his name on it; he spent three years making it; it is actually his highest-grossing movie still to this day. It deserves to be reckoned with as part of his canon."
The author even compares it to Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, except that Scott had the opportunity to reclaim his sci-fi cult classic after it failed at the box office by tinkering with it via his director's cut and eventual "final cut."
"[Dune] could have been a real landmark movie," Evry says, "and it was thwarted at every turn during production, post-production, and then even after the movie was released. Universal had the chance to work with David and Rafaella, and make a true director's cut, and they just didn't want to pay David any money. And that's a lot of work. So I think they ultimately shot themselves in the foot, because when you look at what happened with Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, it was just as sort of hated and just as much a failure when it came out... If they afforded David the same luxury, we'd be having a different conversation right now. It would be just a masterpiece."

Don't mind if I do! (https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=66853.0)
I know Cleopatra is something he's been talking about wanting to do for ages (for a little while it seems like there was a chance that both his and Patty Jenkins' dueling takes might both be made), but I do wonder as well where this leaves Rendezvous With Rama?
I do remember Denis saying that if he does get to make Dune: Messiah, it would not be his very next film right after Dune: Part Two, so no surprise that that isn't seemingly his next film, but I had assumed that Cleopatra was dead at this point and Rendezvous was up next.

Nausicaä's not the worst start though. Both Nausicaä and Mononoke are way less metaphorical and more action/fantasy.
Same for for the superb Castle in the Sky. These films feel more like OT Star Wars plus Miyazaki magic.
Life's actually meaningless without Miyazaki's films.

Not in IMAX, though! Which means I haven't seen it in its proper aspect ratio!
I only saw it on a standard screen (it was still early days of me returning back to theaters in 2021, after getting vaxxed, and I was a bit reluctant to do the crowded IMAX screen at the time), and the IMAX aspect ratio for the shots filmed with those cameras was not preserved for the home release. :'(
Part Two is filmed 100% in that format, so I'm definitely not going to miss the IMAX showings this time around. But I was really hoping for a proper IMAX re-release of the first one before then as well.

Assuming that what I just saw on Twitter is true, I may have just had something pretty significant from Part Two spoiled that sounds great, but also is something I REALLY wish I didn't potentially know going in (and I say this as someone that intimately knows the book).
I think it's time for me to start muting "Dune" and all related terms on social media.

After what I saw today, I'm not taking any more chances. My muted terms list on Twitter has been set. And will remain like so until February 29th when I see the movie.
In the meantime, I finished building the Lego Ornithopter set today and this thing is insane. Great building experience and a really cool (and massive) display piece with tons of functionality.

Saw the film tonight in IMAX 70mm and I'm still reeling from the initial viewing. It's such an immersive and overwhelming experience. This is just phenomenal storytelling and Denis Villeneuve sets the bar pretty damned high for this kind of blockbuster filmmaking. If I had one complaint it would be that Christopher Walken may have been miscast as the Emperor. He looks a little lost throughout his very short screen time and sticks out like a sore thumb.

Oh man, I can't stop thinking about this. Saw it last night and just woke up with it the only thing on my mind.
Gonna have a LOT to discuss about it in the coming days.
Even with some minor (and some significant) changes to the source material, this is about as perfect an adaptation of the so-called unfilmable novel as I ever could have hoped for. There's some stuff at the end that really throws me for a loop, knowing that Denis is so intent on adapting Messiah, but... that's a bridge I'll cross when the time comes. For now, I am just so happy and thankful that we have this two part adaptation of Herbert's masterpiece.
Will be seeing this again in the theater with absolute certainty.

I doubt it, honestly. Part Two ending spoilers:
Spoiler
Part Two literally ends with Paul enacting his Holy War and the Fremen following him off into the horrors that he is about to unleash into the universe, so I can't really see them shying away from all of the tragedy that comes from that into Paul's life.
My big question, regarding Messiah, given how much Denis really wants to make that, involves Chani in Part Two's third act. I genuinely love what this movie did with her, but I also have to wonder what it means for her role in Messiah, since she's in a very different place now than she was at this stage in the book as she rides off into the desert, away from Paul and what he is enacting.

Unrelated to the above, but oh man, I ADORED the expansion on the brutalist Harkonnen aesthetic in this one. They feel like they could have been plucked from a 40K sourcebook, and what we saw of them in the first film was really just the tip of the iceberg.
Spoiler
The way their troops were moving through the desert at the start of the film was so sick, and I loved the tech they were interfaced with (and the weird chant they had going) as they were monitoring spice production. But the cream of the crop is the expanded look at Giedi Prime. Where the first film only showed us the Harkonnen homeworld under extreme cloud coverage, we got to see sequences here with the planet's BLACK SUN (!!!!!) causing everything to appear in black and white/ultraviolet monochrome, but only where the sun was actually hitting, so that created some really interesting clashes of color and b&w. Those fireworks, man.
Also loved everything on Giedi Prime with Lady Fenring and her pursuit of Feyd-Rautha.

More spoilers, pivoting to another topic:
Spoiler
Alia is one of my favorite characters in Dune and its followups, and while I would love loved to have seen flesh and blood, two year old Alia imbued with the consciousnesses of all of the Reverend Mothers before her in this, I do get compressing the timeline and holding back on her for the sake of the adaptation to screen. I'm glad it wasn't done just to keep "weird shit" off screen and that what we did get of her - as a womb literally talking to/guiding/advising Lady Jessica - was weird as hell in its own way. Cool, weird stuff, and I dug it even though it's a pretty significant difference. Quite liked Anya-Taylor Joy's brief portrayal of her in Paul's vision, too. I wonder how she's going to be used in Messiah, given that she and Chalamet are roughly the same age in real life. Maybe once born, movie-Alia's aging process will happen at an expedited rate until she reaches a physically mature age, to keep up with her advanced mind? That might make tackling some of the Hayt stuff a bit easier, too...

About Alia...
I've seen speculation he could be an early appearance of Edric, and the Guild as a whole is suspiciously absent from Part 2 as well.
Spoiler
I know Denis isn't interested in adapting Children, but having Paul kill the Baron instead removes some of the resonance of the possession plot if somebody else were to try.

These elements here are why I wondered if perhaps Jessica (still carrying Alia, and acting with Alia's influence) might get the killing blow on the Baron. But alas, this was not the case. Was incredibly shocked that it ended up being Paul.

This was so powerful. I so hope this does well that we get to see Messiah. Of course this wasn't perfect, but the overwhelming number of good things were so great that I'm still in shock. I have so much to say about what I loved, but it all feels like meaningless words compared to the experience of watching this on IMAX. I want to rewatch it immediately and watch the other books be adapted.
Hearing about stuff about Dune and the later novels and reading bits and pieces, it kinda feels silly to me IMO. But when it's done so seriously and grounded and beautifully? I'm in love, what can I say.

Didn't Denis say he will end with Messiah? I think that's a good move. As the books later in the Dune series get rather...weird, too weird in my opinion to warrant movie adaptations. One of Paul's kids turn himself into a sandworm and then later on we get an invading army of female warriors who use orgasm to sexually control men in worlds they occupy (I'm not kidding, that's actually in the later books).

One of Paul's kids turn himself into a sandworm and then later on we get an invading army of female warriors who use orgasm to sexually control men in worlds they occupy (I'm not kidding, that's actually in the later books).

Yeah I have heard Denis said he plans not to make Messiah immediately after part 2. But my point was that he is planning a trilogy and not more Dune entries (at least not directed by him) after Messiah. Given the strange storylines in the later books, I think that's a good move.

Denis definitely plans on stopping after Messiah, and given his particular sensibilities, I think that's probably the perfect stopping point for him. But I think I'd be all for seeing the series go past that and adapt the rest of Frank Herbert's books with filmmakers that are better suited to the material that the latter entries present. With Raised By Wolves gone, I'm definitely not in a position to turn my head away from incredibly weird, mythic space opera in that vein wherever I can get it.
Anyways, cannot stop thinking about Dune: Part Two. I'm already itching to see it again. Going to try to get IMAX tickets for next weekend. I've started my reread of the novel as well.

Messiah takes place 12 years later, so it makes sense for Denis to make a few other films in between, and the very young-looking actors age a bit.
After Messiah, somebody else could pick up the series, and adapt the craziness that comes later.

Why? It's one of the best Sci Fi films in recent years. I like it more than the first honestly, has a stronger message IMO. With that and Dune, I know I can't miss anything Sci Fi this man does. Can't wait for Messiah and Rama.

https://deadline.com/2024/03/dune-part-two-opening-weekend-global-international-box-office-1235841795/
QuoteComing in ahead of projections following a strong Saturday, Warner Bros/Legendary Entertainment's Dune: Part Two has stormed to a $178.5M global opening. Of that, $97M is from the international box office.
In like-for-like offshore markets and using today's exchange rates, the film is tracking 76% ahead of 2021's Dune, 79% better than Ready Player One, 96% above Godzilla Vs Kong, 12% behind Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One and 16% below Oppenheimer.

COVID + HBO Max day and date release + word of mouth has only increased over the last 2.5 years. Also worth noting, Dune was one of the best performing day and date HBO Max releases of 2021, even with the concurrent streaming release. I only saw Dune once on the big screen in 2021 because I didn't want to risk getting sick on multiple viewings as the holiday season was drawing near, but I watched an additional few times at home on Max after my one theatrical viewing. To contrast, I already have tickets for a second viewing of Part Two booked.
Anyways...

We know from earlier comments from Stephen McKinley Henderson that he was excited that he got to work with Austin Butler. My guess is that his scene(s) would have been a departure from the source material and seen him getting executed by Feyd-Rautha, since he's nowhere to be seen in the film's final confrontation where he has a pretty big part to play in the novel (also, most of his ending material has a direct releation to the plot from the earlier half of the book where Jessica is suspected to have been the traitor, but the first movie did away with that plot entirely). Unless he was originally supposed to be there but all of his stuff was cut and he was digitally removed from wide shots...

Overall it felt like a long run in and then it ended

I'm watching the first remake right now, because my friend recommended it. He said the second one is better and the first needs to set things up, but I didn't realise that meant it would be so tedious. I think I've understood what's going on, but it's slow going so my attention has wandered a fair bit.

Apparently I've watched the first film nine times now, and I can't get enough of it. I love it. Don't find it tedious at all – on the contrary, it always stands out to me every time I watch it just how accessible and easy to revisit it really is. I also wouldn't really say Part Two is better, in the same way that I wouldn't say any installment of The Lord of the Rings trilogy is better than the others; it's all one story, one big (multi-part) film that works best taken as a whole experience.
But I'm also not a person that can be typing or scrolling or doing anything else at all when I'm watching a movie. My brain just can't/won't focus on anything but the screen when I have a movie on. So maybe that's why I'm always so honed in on it/along for the ride with each viewing?

I wouldn't say I found the first one tedious, but I did find it to be a mostly standard seeming sci-fi movie. Amazing visuals and craftsmanship, but just didn't wow me in terms of story or themes. Felt like mostly setup for what's to come.
But Part 2 felt like the further exploration and payoff to everything that I always thought was interesting about Dune's themes and subtext. Plus it just feels grander and amps up the spectacle even more. It blew me away and Dune-pilled me lol. It's made me retroactively like the first part more too.

Just came back from the cinema. I generally liked it very much but I have some issues with it. I'm not gonna praise the obvious things like acting (Javier Bardem!), art design, cinematography, special effects and so on. I'm going to focus on things I really didn't like.
I loved the beginning (first act) but then the plot started dragging on (second act) and felt rushed at the end (third act).
Christopher Walken as an Emperor is totally wasted.
Gurney killing
Chani's character arc
Final battle is rushed. It should have been f**king epic but it wasn't.
Final duel is flat.
Generally the very ending is anticlimactic.
Hans Zimmer score is just ok. Nothing special.
8/10
There must be third movie!

I just had a thought regarding Chani (spoilers for Messiah):
Spoiler
In Part Two, unless I'm reading it wrong, Paul's choice to go south is partly motivated by visions of her death if he uses the atomic weapons directly against the Harkonnens. So if Messiah plays out as it does in the book and Paul chooses the path where she dies, that could potentially be even more of a gut punch.

Saw it last night. Never seen a film on the big screen so visually epic in scale - it honestly leaves everything I've seen before for dead and that's saying something considering things like the Battle of Pellenor Fields in ROTK. Denis V has taken sci-fi to new heights. I'm still processing it all, to be honest, but the CGI is just so seamless, and so realistic - I can't recall being taken out of the movie at all with any of that uncanny valley feeling.

Aye, along with 40K, Dune definitely seems to be one of the primary influences that Chronicles was drawing from. Denis spun things in a pretty significantly different direction than what Twohy did, but you can tell that a shared pool of influences runs deep through both movies.

I don't think Denis really has an interest in TV, based on the trajectory of his career thus far (and some comments that have come out of his mouth during Dune: Part Two's press tour).
He was attached very very briefly to direct the pilot episode of the upcoming Dune: Prophecy (then "Dune: The Sisterhood") when that was first announced a few years back, but that didn't last very long (and there's been a million and a half creative shakeups with that show since then as well).
In a recent interview, when asked about Prophecy, he seemed very adamant that he sees it as something separate from his own vision for this world (despite the fact that Warner Bros/Legendary/the people actually making the show surely see it as an in-continuity prequel to his films).

Hehehe. That reminds me of the wonders of "Hollywood accounting", where studios use "creative" accounting techniques to make a movie that made a profit to turn it into a loss on paper (so as not to pay taxes or royalties), or to deprive partners of profit-sharing ventures their due. But I digress. Hopefully Dune Part 2 should earn enough for profit for Legendary and Warner, any "creative" accounting notwithstanding.

I only care how much it makes in that I want it to make enough to warrant Dune: Messiah getting the green light if/when Denis is ready to adapt that book.
Beyond that, the money isn't lining my pockets. Out of sight, out of mind.
I'm going to see it in IMAX for a second time in a little over an hour and, with the exception of the very front row, the theater is totally booked. This is exactly how it was over a week ago on opening night as well. Seems like it has real staying power right now (on the premium screens, at least).

https://variety.com/2024/film/box-office/box-office-kung-fu-panda-4-leads-dune-surpasses-milestone-1235936650/
QuoteAlthough "Dune: Part Two" relinquished its box office crown to "Panda," the sci-fi sequel had another strong outing with $46 million from 4,074 venues. It marks a 44% decline in ticket sales from its debut (an impressive hold for a blockbuster of this scale) and brings the film's North American total to $157 million.
After 10 days on the big screen, "Dune 2" surpassed the entire domestic tally of the first film ($108 million), although that milestone comes with a major caveat. The original 2021 film was released simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max, so its ticket sales were stifled by the hybrid release on streaming.

My biggest problem with Lynch's Dune is just how off the rails it gets at it blows through the whole back half of the book in like, 40 minutes. With more moments like this to really slow the movie down and let it live in that part of the story a bit, a lot of the issues I have there could have been alleviated.
Granted that wouldn't change how much the movie's ending fundamentally just doesn't seem to get/care about the book's core ideas but, whatever, no fixing that!
I still really like revisiting Lynch's Dune from time to time. Mostly just because of how much I adore the look of the movie. Who cares if a movie's moment-to-moment structure is totally messy and nonsensical when it looks like that!?!?!

They were with the Spacing Guild (and presumably the interior of those helmets they were wearing must have been filled with spice), but they were not Guild Navigators proper, no.

Some folks who watched (or just read) Dune, also are discovering "Lawrence of Arabia" through Dune. You can see the clear influence. Dune is in many ways a sci-fi version of Lawrence of Arabia, as that original autobiography by T.E Lawrence, "Seven Pillars of Wisdom", and the 1962 David Lean classic movie "Lawrence of Arabia" hugely influenced Frank Hebert. You can see the similarity, you have an outsider, arguably associated with a colonial power, coming in, and instead of occupying them, becomes disillusioned with the colonial enterprise, fight for their cause and even lead them to liberation...but with unpredictable results. (The real-life story of Lawrence took place around WW1, much of the Middle East at the time was governed by the Ottoman Empire, and Lawrence allied himself with Arab tribes to try and overthrow the Empire's hold on the region.) The desert terrain of Arrakis and the terms used by the Fremen are influenced by Arabic culture. Swap "spice" for "oil" and the analogy to the Middle East becomes even more precise.

Only gripe is that most of the battles felt too one-sided, the good guys were using like 3 different WMD-s at the same time at one point.

I didn't care for this adaption myself. I actually prefer the first part. Im a big fan of the book, read it a lot as a kid. I also liked the 2000 scifi channel adaption oddly enough. But DV's take is missing something for me. For one the world is not fleshed out at all aside from clues and a touch of exposition. I understand that much of the extraneous universe buidling is not needed to progress the story but damn, it makes the cultures and worlds feel richer in the other adaptions. I think they could have cut some of the reaction shots alone and included material helping to explain the mentats, spacing guild, or the other houses and their history. Should have shown more spice consumption and other ways its used. As it is its a few shots of sparkling cinnimon. And finally Paul's romance with Chani is cold as ice, i didn't feel anything for their love story. I don't mind the changes but emotionally I felt nothing for their relationship. But that's just me, beautiful well made films that don't land for me personally.
Also I never warmed to the kid playing Paul, just couldn't.
Harkonnen's were great 👍

To be fair my opinion isn't a common one. I just find myself preferring the smaller, more character focused story of Messiah. And it has the Tleilaxu, who are the most interesting of the Dune factions to me.

When I first read Messiah, I took it as more of an epilogue to the first book – they feel pretty inseparable in the way, and as a result I can see why Denis is interested in those two books with the intent to stop after telling that "complete" story.
Children of Dune feels more like a full fledged sequel (though overall I think Messiah is better than Children, from what I remember).
I'm about halfway through my Dune reread now, with the intention of rereading Messiah and Children after that. Can't wait to revisit them. Then after that, it'll be onto the latter three books for the very first time, which I'm also incredibly excited for. I know what the latter ones are about in broad strokes (especially God Emperor), but I can't wait to finally experience them in full first hand.

I'm doing exactly the same right now, except I've never read Children.

Also, movie passed $500 million at global box office.
So it's officially not lost money and made a profit, great, part 3 is almost certain IMO. I'll wait as long as we need to, but Deni with this has shown that he's the best Sci Fi director out there right now, to me at least.
It should pass 600 million eventually.

For someone who has not read Dune, would you recommend Messiah and Children of Dune with the original Dune as a trilogy? I have bern rather intimidated by how many books there are, but if I could start just thinking of it as a trilogy that would help.

If a stopping point is what you're looking for, Messiah would even be a good one, honestly. Messiah functions mostly as an epilogue to Dune, to put a bow on that package and make sure that all of its themes get across to the reader. After that, if you want to continue, I guess take it on a book-by-book basis.
Also, went to see Part Two a third (and likely final) time last night. The IMAX screen is about to transfer over to Godzilla x Kong later this week, and I wanted to make sure I was able to get one last viewing of Dune: Part Two in in that format before it is gone, especially since we're unlikely to see the expanded aspect ratio make its way onto the home release.

I saw Part 2 in Dolby for my first time, so I had to go back and see in IMAX before it leaves theaters. 100% worth it, and still amazing.

This excerpt from Deadline's article announcing Denis Villeneuve's Nuclear War: A Scenario makes it sound like a Dune: Messiah adaptation is going to be Villeneuve's next film:
https://deadline.com/2024/04/nuclear-war-movie-denis-villeneuve-legendary-dune-part-two-bestselling-book-1235876114/
This shocks me, if true, given the way he's been talking lately. All his Dune: Part Two press interviews have made it seem like he wants to take a break before jumping back into this world, with either Cleopatra or Rendezvous with Rama coming next.
QuoteThe expectation is that Villeneuve would take this one as another giant project after he completes Dune: Messiah, which he and Legendary are developing as the conclusion of the trilogy.

His take is a bit much...
I love Dune 1 and 2, and anyone who is paying attention knows that it rightfully shows the dangers of a rising Messianic figure, just as the author intended. Frank Herbert through fiction showed an interesting take on how religion, strongman and wars are interconnected and cyclical. But to say that he didn't have some problematic views (and creative decisions... Duncan...) would be an understatement. :laugh:

Was somewhat homophobic, yes (and for some f**ked up reason wired his kids to lie detectors regularly). Still, he made a sci fi classic that inspired millions and spawned so many new worlds and stories. But that doesn't make him a super special prophet or too ahead of his time. Nor does he say anything in his books that hasn't been said a million times before by others. He just did it better and made it more impactful which is important in itself.

I'm starting to think that everything that appealed to me about Dune is what David Lynch turned it into. Stripped of the baroque aesthetic that gave it such a unique look in 1984, it's just so bland.
Maybe Villeneuve isn't my cup of tea.

Now, Dune: Messiah.. I've been going back and forth with that on how they're gonna pull it off because the whole is essentially a soap opera. Still excited, nonetheless.
