Timothee chalamet with the "voice" has what is called the power of persuasion

I enjoyed the director’s work far more here than in Blade Runner . In Blade Runner, he over used establishing shots to the point it felt like 80% of the film (here’s a shot of a junkyard. Here’s another shot of that same junkyard. Here’s that junkyard at a different angle, here’s that junkyard but look we’re half an inch closer). In Dune he managed to achieve a sense of scale without doing that .

I LOVE Dunc!

I fear that more flawless films of Vileneuve are the more lifeless they become. This one looks like gothic party/fashion show in the house of Ctulhu where good and bad are wearing black. Dune has crossed the line for me between good movie and marketing research, unfortunately. It's almost funny how serious it is

Hm. I've been wondering what it is about Villeneuve that I don't like and maybe it's this. Perfection at the price of lifelessness. But it still leaves me wondering why I love Kubrick :D I can't deny that Villeneuve did a great job transferring the novel's main events into a movie, but not once do I feel like I'm on Arrakis or that any of these people are actual characters inhabiting that world. Instead, they're a part of a bleak tapestry of sharp images. Maybe that's how Villeneuve interprets the book, I dunno.

Magnificent Gojira

That's a good comparision. Both are very meticulous, but Kubrick (except maybe for Space Odyssey) never did big-budgety thing where you have to lean on a teamwork. He usually worked with a small crews and was very controlling of his personal vision, afair. Last two film by Vilineuve are all about teamwork and he's being filter to all propositions. Of course they are not in any way like some overproduced tentpolls, but they are felt like they're perfect AI paintings - all in due place, it's exquisite in many ways, but it doesn't look like some work by human artist.

This was a great reaction. George's understanding of the book combined with Simone's unfamiliarity really made me so happy. Rebecca Ferguson's performance is underrated. She had to do some very heavy lifting to fill in the missing inner monologue. Her version of the character is a big difference from the book because she's more demonstrative, but she provides the majority of the emotion about the tragedy occurring on screen.

Thomas Yanez

As George pointed out, the use of inner monologue is a really big thing in the book and compensating for that was one of the places where the 1984 movie really failed, IMO. By "failed" I mean just blatantly had the people give voice over narration of said inner monologue, and it always feels cringe to me.

The Worlds Fastest Indian doesn't look any where near as good as this film, but I still feel it has more heart!

And then that triggers me remembering the Al Pacino "Dunkaccino" video. "Say hello to my chocolate blend!"

Agreed, I find her a very good casting, and her performance top notch.

Lynch’s 84 version should be done. A lot of great costumes and visuals in that too. And it was able to do the first book all in one movie. Yeah there are issues, but don’t miss it. Also Jordowskys Dune the documentary is worth checking out at least for George as a fan of the books. And the miniseries was good too, great actors in every adaptation.

David lynch then I think of Cronenberg and now I want to see a reaction to Existenz which probably doesn’t exist anywhere.

REDR58

They should definitely do it, but perhaps after they see Part 2 of Denis Villeneuve's version.

PIG

I wonder how they would handle a Lynch film, especially the recent stuff.

What makes Dune have such a good Chosen One is that it isn't chance, or magic or birthright. He's the product of thousands of years of planning. Despite the magic it makes him more real then the greatgreatgreatgreatgrandson of a dragon or a guy chosen by some god to be his avatar. In a way it was earned. And of course how the entire body of work deals with a chosen one is just chef's kiss.
