    Meh - part 1 was so lackluster. It felt like literally nothing happened in this movie. It was 2 and a half hours of setup for Dune part 2. None of the characters are relatable, no one built any types of relationships. Duncan’s "death" felt meaningless and hollow.

    I'm glad to read I'm not the only one that wasn't impressed with Dune. It is better than the Lynch fiasco but to me this Dune was just average.

    You know, I have to kind of agree. Visually, this version was stunning. The cinematography in this version was far superior as were the FX, of course. Sometimes though, I feel like he fell in love with the visuals to the detriment of the story. I watched the. Lynch version right after and even though, Lynch was always a little wacky for me (JMHO) and of course didn't have the FX tech available now, he really didn't do a wholly terrible job on the film. In fact, I still believe some of his cast were better than the new ones. Sting, was born for the role of Feyd (I know he really hasn't entered, Denis' film so far) like, Nicholson was to be, Jack Torrance. Thufir, was a better fit in the Lynch version (IMHO). Lynchs', Jesscia was better to name a few. To be sure some of the new cast was spot on like, Paul, Gurney and Idaho. Chani as well.

    Just seemed a little like, Denis spent a little too much time showing us the vistas of Aarakis and lagged the plot. IDK, as I said I enjoyed it but it was a little lacking. Made me appreciate the, Lynch failed attempt a little more and hopefully, he'll come out swinging in 2 years in part two.

    I saw it in the theater yesterday. Generally, I’m hugely positive. Definitely should not be seen at home.

    It’s a slow burn, much like the book.Very faithful to the text, apart from a couple of obvious departures. I think a few things did not come across particularly well, though, which may lead to some confusion. It’s hard to tell, because I understood what specific scenes meant, but I’m not sure someone who hadn’t read the book would. The movie was very Paul-centric, which I can understand, but longer scenes with other characters might have explained things better. I suspect we will have an extended edition of the film on home media.

    The design and feel of the world was masterful. Acting was superb. I don’t think a better movie of Dune that is this faithful to the text could be made.

    I saw Dune again today and enjoyed it equally as much. The first showing was in 3D, which I didn't realize when I bought the tickets. I honestly didn't think it was still a thing.

    One of my main issues with 3D has always been how it washes out the visuals. Needless to say, the film is even more stunning to look at than my initial impressions.

    I do have a few things that stood out to me, both are spoilers.

    Spoiler:
    Gurney just disappears. His character is built up as being a badass and someone who is important to the story. We see him rush off into battle, but we never see him again one way or the other. If he's dead, that's a pretty lame off-screen death. If he's alive, then a hint of that at some point would have been nice.

    Bautista's character is built up as the main bad guy, but he never gets his "scene." Honestly, the fact that Duncan Idaho doesn't square off against him is a missed opportunity. I would have loved to have seen that.


    All in all, Dune is one of the best theater experiences I have had in a long time and I really can't wait to explore this world more. This is also a day 1 Blu-ray purchase for me. Long live Denis.

    The film did a better job of this than the book, in my humble opinion. When reading the book, you get a sense that Herbert has a lot of unwritten backstory about some of the supporting characters that he never included in the book itself. Gurney Halleck, Thufir Hawat, and Duncan Idaho are all present, and are shown to have a close relationship with Paul, but we don’t really get very many scenes of them before events leave them behind. Duncan’s death, particularly, doesn’t have the emotional resonance I think Herbert intended, precisely because we really don’t spend much time with him.

    The movie included some exchanges between Duncan and Paul that showed a bond between them and added weight to those later scenes. I do understand that it might not have been enough for some, though.

    Great movie for a return to the theater! It was my second movie since things opened up (the new Bond was the first).

    I watched it the other day on HBO Max. Still not ready to go back to a theater. I thought it was good. Not OMG good, but decent. I haven't read the book in decades, but I could remember scenes from it as they were playing out on the screen.

    I think you would think more of it had you seen it in theatre. And to back Bev… it’s safe and you will be happy you did.

    Pick the right time and you will likely be by yourself. I've been going to the movies since they reopened back up in September of 2020. I would say about a dozen of those times I was the only person in the theater.

    Recently, there are more people, but if you pick an early showing, you will be one of a very few people.

    I quit going in theaters way before any pandemic. People are just stupid and rude in theaters - always talking, moving around, playing on their f'ing phones, etc. We do go to the drive-in now and then but would much rather just watch at home.

    I’ve been lucky in that the two times I’ve been back to the theater recently, we’ve had a good number of people in the theater, but they all seem to be there to watch the movie. It was nice seeing it with other people without any of the downsides of loud talking or people moving around.

    I think the theater layout helped as well. These were big comfortable seats with some distance between them, so quiet talking wasn’t heard.
