I still wish an HBO series had been made of this. The book(s) are perfect for prestige TV and I could see it being a big hit ala GoT. And like GoT, there's just so much world building and exposition necessary that a feature film just doesn't cut it. I'm glad to see it's being divided into two, at least. Also it's interesting that the casting for Feyd is being kept a secret. Though maybe that's because he doesn't even appear until part 2.

SHISHKABOB posted:I watched The King on Netflix with Timothee Chalamet and I wasnt exactly impressed. I thought he did well. He's kind of a shrimpy, boy-ish looking guy who nevertheless can speak with authority, and assuming that wasn't a double in all the fight scenes, he can do that pretty well too. Nothing to get super excited about but he'll be fine as Paul The King's writing didn't exactly give him primo material to work with, either

Spermando posted:[futuristic lamentation music] yeah this was the worst part for me. the monochrome pallette, whatever, it's an aesthetic choice and not necessarily a wrong one. There's no reason Dune has to look like fuckin' froot loops.

dead gay comedy forums posted:absolutely loving great movie, holy poo poo Same. It really beat my expectations. The story was laid out and exposited better than I think it possibly could've in a film. It looked and sounded incredible, I loved the atmosphere, the mix of old earth and new tech and general future weirdness. It's been too long since we've really gotten weird in a sci fi movie. I wish there was even ten spare minutes to talk about space travel and show more of the guild ships. There's almost nothing on the trip over to Arrakis, they just show up. But what can you do, there's no time. They cut part one at the exact part I thought they should after Paul's duel with the fremen challenger but in hindsight, that makes it feel a bit like a movie and a half. But again, unless we'd been blessed with three Dune movies, what can you do? I guess we'll be lucky to even get part 2.

I saw Dune a second time, in IMAX, after watching it on TV at first. Would've seen in theaters to begin with but I didn't think it would be as good as it was. Absolutely worth it, this movie is made for the big screen. Was not bored seeing it two times, and I almost never do repeat viewings of anything, even movies I like. Thinking about who should play the Emperor in part 2. Somebody mentioned Mads Mikkelson which would be a great choice, but how about this - Anthony Starr from The Boys. He'd look great with red hair too, which he does in the book.

No Mods No Masters posted:Seems like the role jared leto was born to play Wouldn't surprise me if it's him, he was in Blade Runner after all. Leto would've been the *ideal* Feyd Rautha 20 years ago. I think you could do better for the role of Emperor of the Known Universe, but not a bad pick and certainly one he'd relish given what we know about what Jared Leto thinks of himself Reminds me, this is a great podcast episode about Jared Leto's self directed 30 seconds to Mars documentary, for all you Leto heads out there: https://soundcloud.com/and-intro-pod/104-30-seconds-to-mars-ft-indieheads-pod

I think Elba would play the role too wooden, like he's in the Eternals or something. Has he played many villains? I can't think of any and I don't think he'd be that believable as one. The actor needs to just ooze arrogance. Of course, none of this matters that much because as signifcant as the role is to the story, if Villenueve follows the book the emperor will have about seven minutes of screentime edit: comedy option (but would genuinely be cool to see): Keanu Reeves Ramrod Hotshot fucked around with this message at 22:41 on Dec 6, 2021 |

Xiahou Dun posted:I'm not married to Elba playing the Emperor or anything. I'd watch him play Little Orphan Annie cause he's a very, very good actor, but it's not like a hill I'd choose to die or anything. It's been a long time since I've seen the wire, but my main takeaway of Stringer Bell is that he aspired to make drug dealing as mundane as an office job, with himself as a legitimate businessman who happens to sell drugs. But not a sociopath by any means. Maybe it's that Idris Elba just doesn't seem to me as cold as the Emperor needs to be.

Brian Cox would own as Shaddam Corrino IV. Paul: “I want you to abdicate and go into exile while I marry your daughter and become emperor myself. Or I blow up all the spice.” ”gently caress off!”
