THC posted:any episode of any trek series whose summary contains the phrase "[female lead] falls in love with *" is pretty much bullshit and okay to skip because you know the love interest will be gone next week no matter what see also: Sub Rosa.

the female lead's love interest always conveniently dies, or has to leave forever to FOCUS ON MY RESEARCH or they turn out to be an alien mind rapist or something picard at least got a recurring love interest

THC posted:picard at least got a recurring love interest I was remembering and inwardly chuckling at that part where Picard goes to Risa and picks up a whore'gahn for Riker and it almost gets Jean Luc accidentally laid funny stuff but if it had worked, and Picard ended up having sex against his will because of Riker, could you say that Riker raped Picard? I'm going explore this in some speculative fiction and get back to y'all

Amethyst posted:I love David Lynch and Dune but that movie was bad. i think he decided he couldn't film a fighting technique that was all about inward muscular control and stuff that movie could have been good but the way the studio butchered it shows so bad "hmm it's running long let's cut out massive amounts of plot and replace them with voiceover" the visuals etc own but if you haven't read the book it's incomprehensible the sci-fi one may have had wonky effects etc but at least it gave the story some room to breathe. also they did the first two sequels also so there's that (god emperor supremacy)

agreed. Also I would kill to Jodorowsky's version of dune. The emperor has a robot twin, melange is a blue sponge full of microscopic life which reflects the rest of the universe and Duke leto is a eunuch. The movie ended with Paul getting his throat cut, his mother and all of the fremen speaking in his voice simultaneously while all melange of the planet transmutes into rainbow coloured consciousness and explodes the planet into columns of light. Also, Baron Harkonnen looks like this Feyd Rautha looks like this and Piter de'vries looks like this Check it out, would have been completely insane http://www.duneinfo.com/unseen/ Amethyst fucked around with this message at 02:25 on Jun 24, 2011 |

this is just some dude's fan art but i think it works pretty well harkonnen should be unhumanly obese, the actors from the movies were just normal fat

that owns. Dune is probably unfilmable though. You would need to dedicate too much screen time to expository infodumps about the landsraad and CHOAM and melange and the bene gesserit and the guild so that anyone who hasn't read the book has the slightest idea of what is going on.

Do you guys like the dune sequels? I think it gets a bit too much into the zen philosophy, Hayt is a boring character. those books written by his son are abominable.
