According to at least one poll, Dune is the most anticipated movie of 2020.


Even beats out the new Kong v. Godzilla and Wonder Woman 1984 film.

And apparently they're making more Halloween... and Ghostbusters movies... sighs

That's a pretty good showing for a movie that doesn't even have a teaser trailer out yet.

In defense of that last one, I hear that the new Ghostbuster movie looks pretty good. Surprised to see that it's only hanging at 9%. Either I've heard wrong, or the stink from Ghostbusters 2016 hasn't worn off yet.

Not much is known about it right now. It is still mainly only known to the land of movie buff and people that follow entertainment news. The frist previews just hit the theaters over Christmas so expect more people to be talking about it soon.

So for the poll. It is great that people are looking forward to Dune but it is from a website for movie fans that polled major movie fans. Overall Expect a lot of people are looking forward to it but I doubt it will be in the same category as Wonder Women or the new Fast and the Furious.


As for the new movie I have been looking forward to it. But I also have both the movie and mini series on DvD.

Not really big news but apparently a title poster was leaked of the Dune film during some event in France.

Not confirmed yet since anyone with an account can change things on most of IMDB but...



Now of course there's nothing inherently masculine about Dr. Liet-Kynes... beyond you know... being a Father figure in the story metaphorically speaking... oh and a Father figure in the literal sense... to Chani, the real Princess in this story.

...Okay then, I'll bite; are they switching the roles of Chani's mother and father in the story, or does she have two mothers now?

It's going to be like an after school PSA/Special for the prequel.

Oh for fucks sakes...

What purpose does that serve? You can gender flip in stories where it makes sense, can fit and you're a decent enough writer/director to pull it off...But like I said it has serve a purpose and make sense.

The fuck's the point of this?

edit- The Fremen were founded by Zen Buddhists who intermarried with and assimilated Suuni Muslims. They're friggen Asian-Arab mutts with a heap of mystery meat thrown in...Why is Kynes black? Zendaya I get because she's mixed race, playing a princess of the Heinz 57 people...but..wuuu?

Like if you were gonna do this cast Jessica Alba or Halle Berry or something.

Kynes isn't even a Fremen, so I think race is kind of irrelevant?
Kynes passed a hard glare over the Duke and Paul, said: “Most of the desert natives here are a superstitious lot. Pay no attention to them. They mean no harm.” But he thought of the words of the legend: “They will greet you with Holy Words and your gifts will be a blessing.” Leto’s assessment of Kynes—based partly on Hawat’s brief verbal report (guarded and full of suspicions)—suddenly crystallized: the man was Fremen. Kynes had come with a Fremen escort, which could mean simply that the Fremen were testing their new freedom to enter urban areas—but it had seemed an honor guard. And by his manner, Kynes was a proud man, accustomed to freedom, his tongue and his manner guarded only by his own suspicions. Paul’s question had been direct and pertinent. Kynes had gone native.

I don't believe we can even be certain Kynes was born on Arrakis. His father was an Imperial appointee.

The point is that they can do it; that's the only thing which matter to people who want to change the gender and/or race of established characters. It's all about the power trip.

"I tell you, Shadam, he is sending some bad hombres here. I was talking to Stilgar the other day, his sietch is doing great by the way. Excellent spice coffee, boy they produce spice coffee like you wouldn't believe. We are gonna work a trade deal out, but he's gotta stop putting water tarifs on our guys. If he wants pundi rice, he has to stop with the tarifs! But he was saying, wonderful guy but he was saying that the Sardukar are born in a prison? Can you imagine that? These are bad dudes. They eat their own mothers and they run with those Salusan bulls. My father was killed by one of those from GEEIIDDI PRIMMEEE. But yeah. Shadam, not sending his best!"
