God's blood, ye lout! Mood beeth for cattle and the making of the two-backed beast, but 'tisn't seemly for swordplay! Now draweth thee thine trencher, and fight! |

Dune Trailer
Oscar nominee Denis Villeneuve (“Arrival,” “Blade Runner 2049”) directs Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures’ “Dune,” the big-screen adaptation of Frank Herbert’s seminal bestseller of the same name.
A mythic and emotionally charged hero’s journey, “Dune” tells the story of Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence—a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential—only those who can conquer their fear will survive.
The film stars Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet (“Call Me by Your Name,” “Little Women”), Rebecca Ferguson (“Stephen King’s Doctor Sleep,” “Mission: Impossible – Fallout”), Oscar Isaac (the “Star Wars” franchise) Oscar nominee Josh Brolin (“Milk,” “Avengers: Infinity War”), Stellan Skarsgård (HBO’s “Chernobyl,” “Avengers: Age of Ultron”), Dave Bautista (the “Guardians of the Galaxy” films, “Avengers: Endgame”), Stephen McKinley Henderson (“Fences,” “Lady Bird”), Zendaya (“Spider-Man: Homecoming,” HBO’s “Euphoria”), Chang Chen (“Mr. Long,” “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”), David Dastmalchian (“Blade Runner 2049,” “The Dark Knight”), Sharon Duncan-Brewster (“Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” Netflix’s “Sex Education”), with Oscar nominee Charlotte Rampling (“45 Years,” “Assassin’s Creed”), with Jason Momoa (“Aquaman,” HBO’s “Game of Thrones”), and Oscar winner Javier Bardem (“No Country for Old Men,” “Skyfall”).
Villeneuve directed “Dune” from a screenplay by Jon Spaihts and Villeneuve and Eric Roth based on the novel of the same name written by Frank Herbert. Villeneuve also produced the film with Mary Parent, Cale Boyter and Joe Caracciolo, Jr. The executive producers are Tanya Lapointe, Joshua Grode, Herbert W. Gains, Jon Spaihts, Thomas Tull, Brian Herbert, Byron Merritt and Kim Herbert.
Behind the scenes, Villeneuve reteamed with two-time Oscar-nominated production designer Patrice Vermette (“Arrival,” “Sicario,” “The Young Victoria”), two-time Oscar-nominated editor Joe Walker (“Blade Runner 2049,” “Arrival,” “12 Years a Slave”), two-time Oscar-winning visual effects supervisor Paul Lambert (“First Man,” “Blade Runner 2049”), and Oscar-winning special effects supervisor Gerd Nefzer (“Blade Runner 2049”). He also collaborated for the first time with Oscar-nominated director of photography Greig Fraser (“Lion,” “Zero Dark Thirty,” “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”); three-time Oscar-nominated costume designer Jacqueline West (“The Revenant,” “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” “Quills”) and costume designer Robert Morgan; and stunt coordinator Tom Struthers (“The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Inception”). Oscar-winning and multiple Oscar-nominated composer Hans Zimmer (“Blade Runner 2049,” “Inception,” “Gladiator,” “The Lion King”) is creating the score.
Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures Present a Legendary Pictures Production, a Film by Denis Villeneuve, “Dune.” The film is slated to be released in select theaters in 2D and 3D and IMAX and on HBO Max on October 22, 2021 and will be available on HBO Max’s Ad-Free plan in 4K UHD, HDR10, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos (English Only) on supported devices for 31 days from theatrical release.
The film has been rated PG-13 for sequences of strong violence, some disturbing images and suggestive material.

I watched it in two parts on HBO Max Thu & Fri. Certainly better than Lynch's (though I don't hate as much as most people, including Lynch, do), the splitting the story in two works mostly in its favor. The only doubt you have about it is the fact we're still not sure there will be Part 2. It looks like it's done well overseas previously and I heard a couple of guys at work talking about so it's got an audience. Warners would do well to announce this week they're greenlighting Part 2, it would actually help the audience for this one.
Supposedly Villeneuve is intending a trilogy (Dune, Dune: The Prophet, Dune: Messiah) which would generally match up with the original titles of the stories through that point. But if you get that far, you have to have Children in your sights, anything else can wait until later.

Loved it , as did the lad who knows nowt about Dune. I'm with you I like a lot of the original and the two TV series which I thought were well done for the time. Some tweaks from the book and a few things missing which Lynch put in from the Atreides time in Arrakeen which I'd like to see if there's an extended cut if they were filmed.We saw it in the cinema , and both came out saying how great it looked/sounded and agreed it _really_ needs to be seen in IMAX.

Watched it with my fiancée, it was pretty damn good. She on the other hand had a hard time following the story. Ironically she just watched Lynch's Dune for the first time out of curiosity and had no problem understanding. Turns out Princess Irulan's voice over narration helps quite a bit.

Saw Dune on the weekend and I'm happy to say it's good. It's really, really good. You should see it and on the biggest screen available.

Saw it last night and it was really good. Definitely have to be in the right kind of mood for a movie like this as the whole thing was very serious, brooding and cryptic with zero levity.

...there's a scene with some throat singing, so as any Hun should do, I enjoyed this movie. It looks epic, is well paced considering the length of the movie and I'm looking forward to the sequel.
