nemafakei Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 To be perfectly honest...Protagonist is placed by a higher power against his will into the antagonist's strongholdProtagonist learns of oppression by antagonist, and makes small gestures of resistance Protagonist forced by flee into wildernessAnatagonist tracks protagonist down to hideout of sympathisers and captures key advisorProtagonist learns not to walk on the sand lest he anger and summon the wildlifeProtagonist uses, well, thumpers to evade wildlifeProtagonist bends wildlife to his willProtagonist learns identity of traitor (who is later somewhat redeemed)Protagonist rallies cadre of resistanceCadre and protagonist together take control of means of production and overthrow the established orderBut this affords them only a brief respite...There are also a lot of out-of-sequence references.

Vanguard3000 Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 Quit my job. Got a new one. Bought a house. That's about it.So I've heard. Well, about the house thing. 'Cause you told me, and because it was like a year ago. What's the new job, though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 One of my favourite comics makes a small but welcome reference: http://dresdencodak.com/2010/03/11/mademoiselle/It's in one of the spaces beneath the Kingdom of Gawk. ;) More of a reference than an in-joke I suppose, but these things are scarce enough on the ground and I wanted an excuse to link the comic.

Kiyouta Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Perhaps they could use that as the base for the new Dune film? Muad'dib + Popeye = $$$.Or maybe even $4 ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
