New Q&A and Profile

[Mahdi]

John Harrison has answered yet another Q&A, this one is short and sweet.

Q: Will the pronunciations in the miniseries be true to what Frank Herbert intended?

A: Yes. All pronunciations come directly from Frank Herbert's own writings.

I have to say thats the shortest Q&A from John Harrison that I've ever read.

Also, Theodor Pistek, the Dune Costume Designer, was profiled in bios. He also makes a quote about how the costumes are going to look:

This is not sci-fi, okay. We're not going to have people in sort of body-fitting Star Trek outfits. I want you to think of this as Shakespeare, I want you to think of this as Oriental. Because we've created a design concept that is very much an amalgam of sort of Arab-Oriental.

Not too exciting, but, hey, what else is there to post about?
