chatfsh Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Hey, if the makeup artists could make Liv look like an elf, they could surely make her look Fremen, whereas no amount of makeup will make you a better actor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I think Liv's female elf Forgot-her-name is too much syrupy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mawdryn Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I don't doubt it will probably be the biggest let-down in history, but I guess I'm just the eternal optimist ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 The miniseries was good. There's a possibility that the movie will be better.The biggest let down has been the new books, I'm not sure anything could supplant them. Touch wood.

SandChigger Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 <i>Torchwood</i>, you say? Yes, that would come rather close.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I liked Torchwood. :PIt had its bad spots, but even they were nothing beside the vile sputum of the Dune prequels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Torchwood is some weird sci-fi/conspiracy theory TV show, right? I think I've seen an episode or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anathema Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I'm definitely going to see the new movie, if it ever comes out.My first hope is that it's going to be a decent movie on it's own. I've recomended to several of my friends that they read Dune and lended out my copy more than once, but nobody actually bothers to read it. It would probably be much easier to get people to see a movie, after wich I can always recommend the book.My second hope is that it stays reasonably close to the book, though I realize that a lot will have to be cut. The miniseries was okay in that respect, allthough it also added some irrelevant and unnecessary subplots.So far, I've never had the chance to discuss Dune with someone in real life despite the fact that it's supposedly the best-selling SF novel in history.
