I can't stand Dune. It's some boring as hell fantasy set in space. I tried watching it but fell asleep. I can't remember any scene from the film. Star Wars is space fantasy too, but at least it has cool characters, cool dialogues and cool scenes. I don't understand why anybody would watch Dune.

Anybody else can't stand Dune?

Dune the book is a masterpiece. Those who don't see this are behind the curve -- the bell curve, if you know what I mean.

Within the first three minutes of the film, I turned it off. Strong women and oppressed sand people fighting space-whites are things I don't want to watch.

I like it but cannot watch it too much, in fact I could only watch it once before I recognized the message underneath... Drugs to increase "human ability" processed from a "serpent" "Transhumanism" + a little evolution fantasy {caused by the drugs not natural} in their {pilots}... It is a warning of a dystopian future run by evil and degenerate people, and drug users where the drug is literary life... You got a bunch of dopamine addicted "elites" and an enslaved population.... Plus a religious "female" priesthood in direct contradiction to biblical male ones ... Plus on top of it the whole madeb thing is false messiah {antichrist} propaganda...

It is a very disturbing movie when you think about it... take heed it's warnings

If you wait a bit, Paul will turn Dune into a green planet where it rains regularly, and there are no worms, and no spice. Eventually, however, Dune goes back to the way it was.

Part 2 is when the fun begins. The extended cut of the original is the only one worth watching.

Yeah the old movie was boring, the book was dull, haven't even attempted the new movie. Although dune is home to one of my favorite quotes in all of literature

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone, there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

That's exactly what I think about Firefly. Wow, a space western. Yawn.

Herbert is kinda hard to read, but he builds interesting societal spaces.

Overhyped space allegory for muh opresshun and oil wars.

Boring AF and it's maybe only half or a third (depending on how much of the book they'll incorporate into it) of the story.

You can really feel the hollywood-p.o.c.-agenda being pushed through the casting and press behind the incredibly overrated zendaya.

She's barely in the movie (maybe two minutes total, mercifully) and with the dreamy, lingering shots of her, the director is either fucking her or (mistakenly) thinks she's Greta Garbo.

Hard to determine if this movie sucks harder than the pretentious, cold, and lifeless, The French Dispatch.

If there was an Oscar category for The Most Overrated Movie, these two snoozefests might tie.
