Lake Dredge appraisal is one of my all time favorites, me and my friends still solemnly reference Dredger's Law at each other. The pork one is incredible body horror.

That cast is nearly flawless. But Timothée Chalamet does not look how I've always imagined Paul Atreides would look.

I specifically remember those personal body shields, which is why you can't just shoot someone, and you have to move at just the right speed to effectively stab someone.

The names all ring true, but have no clue what they did or who was a protagonist or not.

I remember spice being a thing.

quote:

His oval face was like his mother Jessica’s, but he had stronger bones and a browline reminiscent of his maternal grandfather. He had a thin, disdainful nose, long lashes concealing lime-toned, directly staring green eyes, and a hardness in the expression like the old Duke, his paternal grandfather.

Other than the oval face chalamet doesn't seem too far off.

I wonder if they'll talk about the mentat training Paul had in this movie or if they'll skip it like the original and the miniseries

David Lynch's Dune is probably my favorite movie of all time, but this trailer has me hype. Just hope it makes a lot of money so that they actually make the second part. :/

He doesn't have a strong browline AT ALL. And there is nothing hard about his expression in any scene in the trailer. Dude's a great actor, he just seems...a little too physically small for the role.


I mean, Momoa makes any man look tiny so it is a bit unfair.

He was described in the books as being unusually small for his age (or something like that)

Just watching that traileri don't know why they made the suits look like the power armor from lost in space. I'm hoping those aren't what they came up with for stillsuits

There's plenty of shots with Zendaya showing off the nose plug, that seems to be the stillsuit. The armor is something else.

edit: Episode 3 of the American Side Stories was alright, the villain over-exposition'd his poo poo at the end but otherwise it was kind of like reading an old EC comic. Just one horror thing you know is going to happen and then it does and you see if the protags live or not.

It is kinda stunning that Youtube just ran byside of it for the few years it lasted. Can accuse google of many things, but at least they're cautious of outright fraud.

I marathoned Evil and it is so good. The demon-of-the-week stuff is great, and the meta-plot doesn't get in the way. All the characters are fantastic, even most of the ones who get very little screentime. The Leland stuff is getting a little tiring, but maybe it'll go somewhere this season.

You know how kids in horror shows are usually awful and drag down whatever plot they're a part of? This show solves it by having four basically interchangeable girls who mainly only appear on screen together as one character, yelling over each other in so much chaos that I wondered if they somehow represented the demon Legion. It's hilarious watching them enthusiastically blundering headfirst into traffic until their mom or Ben casually steers them away.

I don’t know how they do the direction for those scenes or how scripted they are but those four girls in full chaos mode are great.

My friend and I quote this bit from the Evil finale a lot.

"Lin, put your hand up. You're in charge."
"Hi. I'm Lin and I'm in charge."

In doesn't look much on paper, but the actual scene was very very charming.

I’ve posted this before but one of the best moments of TV in my entire life was shitfaced with a friend watching the finale of the Potter season. Black SUV starts driving up and we joke “hey … what if it’s loving Danny Trejo and he was a spook the whole time”. And Danny Trejo walks out of the SUV and we are unable to breathe we’re laughing too hard.
