It’s a good thing Netflix recently added Dune: Part One to their library (at least in my region) so that I could rewatch it before seeing Part Two in the cinema! 🤩
I watched Dune: Part Two earlier and there’s one word to describe it: EPIC! 🤩
I’ve only read the first novel and that was so long ago that I barely remember the plot (only bits, like Jessica and Paul escaping to and winning over the Fremen and becoming a messianic figure) and I haven’t seen any of the other screen adaptations so seeing this adaptation by one of my favorite directors was just freaking awesome.
@seav CW spoilers? :) I had to direct my eyes the same way I guide my 4yo around heavy slow traffic we have to face every morning going to school around your two posts just not to read a single word after "dune part two".
That said, a huge part of my teenage years was playing the pioneer RTS game Dune II (along with the original Civilization) so I was already familiar with the world of Arrakis, albeit a gamified version that included a non-canon House Ordos.
Seeing game elements like the Fremen, the Sardaukar, ornithopters, spice fields, harvesters, spice silos, wormsigns, and especially sandworms gobbling up units on the big screen in a book-accurate manner in these two movies was amazing.
