Yeah i gotta see the 1984 movie again. They drastically changed the storyline didnt they? Didn't they cut out the majority of the Fremen sections?

blackrose: you'll be surprised how leaving it for a few years and then revisiting will improve your understanding of it, its worked for me. I first read them when i was about 15 and had trouble...

Well at least he fits the description fairly well (unlike the mini series).

I liked the movie better than the mini series, probably because of the adaptations.

Two attempts and a remake of the first attempt and they all suck harder than you did on your first boyfriend's cock, Cozener. Obviously, no one wants to really put the time and money behind getting...

I downloaded the sci-fi channel mini series.

Bump - here you go Cozener

/me puts up hand to be in the "breeding programs"

:D

Mike: yeah, i loved the last 2 aswell, the plots of the bene gesserit and the honoured matres were vicious :)

Yes, I agree with you about the KJA stuff.

I think they should have just left the Dune universe alone, i mean the 6 book series was complete.

Hrm, i've read some Kevin Anderson and its pretty light and simplistic writing - I don't see how that style could do the Dune universe justice, really. Its like Dean Koonts compared to Stephen King.

YARP!

Yeah it is a hard series to explain .. and keep in mind the books don't follow conventional timing, the events of the last two are thousands of years past the events of the first three.

Its a bold...

Oh here we go - shit, theres alot more detail copied than i though - i think Lucas was trying to pay homage, to a degree. But fuck, if I was herbert and saw the last three movies that Lucas has...
