Another Morel Interview - Chock Full Of Goodies!

Seems he's really hitting the internet PR circle.  This time it is with Ain't it Cool News' Capone.  To put to rest some rumours swirling about here on FED2k and elsewhere, this interview confirms Luc Besson is not the "mystery writer" working on Dune, and that Besson has absolutely nothing to do with Dune.  The mystery writer will be officially named next week when work on the script commences.

Most interestingly, one answer of Morel's goes to show that there is still no guarantee his big-screen adaptation of Dune will be produced.  It may yet be cancelled, like so many other past attempts.

That quote is being blown out of proportion all over the web - it was from the IGN interview last week.  IGN asked Morel if Dune was going to be 3d, he said he didn't know but it would be cool.  That's all.  They haven't even got a script, storyboards, OR greenlight yet.  No 3d is planned.

Yes, exactly.

  ::)

You seriously don't think the Dune movie is going to do anywhere near that well, do you? Hell, Avatar II won't do as well.

This is why I have no doubt that 3D will not be used. No producer would ok the use of such an expensive gimmick on a franchise which has proven so unpopular in televisual form. I bet there'll be a 3D game before a film :P

Have faith 'Chig, it could yet prove a success AND pleasing to you OHs ;)

Wait and see, KJA will find some way to get his crap into it. (Like another intro sequence explaining the backstory of the Duniverse, featuring the Legends version, complete with Omnius, Erasmus, and Fugly Magic Dwarf?) Hopefully Morel and his people have the fortitude to tell him and FuzzHead to dos off. ;)
