Dune movie.......any rumors whatsoever?

[Vernius]

I took some joy in wathing Dune many years ago

even though i thought perhaps it was abit too

ummmmm "70`s retro". I also thought that

guy from Twin peaks was an awfull Leto.

Vlad Harkonnen were pretty allright, but the

guild navigators and the worms both shitty.

Ive seen some "Dune" movies on dvd but

by the looks of its/their cover (cant remember)

it looks really B movie so i havent bothered to

buy it. Does anyome know if there are plans to make

a new Dune movie......perhaps a remake ?

I was just figuring....a story like Dune deserves it.

The miniseries are out haven't you seen them? if not you really should. Also they are shooting a new series about the atreides twins (a follow up on the first mini). And Kyle Mclachlan playd Paul not Leto that was J

[alphabeta4000]

aren't they remaking the dune movie?

[nampigai]

I don't think so it would be great though

[Vernius]

I really really really really relly really hope so  ;D

[nampigai]

Wonder if Harrison could be "persuaded" to make a huge serie on all the books. That'll be great. I wonder who would play Teg

[nemafakei]

Well... the film Dune was made over 15 years ago. And even then, it looks pretty decent. The shields could have been better...

[gryphon]

I myself liked the boxy shields.

[nampigai]

yes they kinda remind me of a game I played once, I just can't remember what ??? I must confess that I was disapointed with the shields in Harrison's series.

[Vernius]

i thought the shields were deacent enough, but

that guy that played Leto had an awfull hair cut. ;D

[nampigai]

J

[Vernius]

 Dude i ment in the old movie :D

That guy from twin peaks :D

He looks so puny, i had always pictured Leto to be

more of a muscular man.

Yea Das Boot is great the best sub movie ever,

Red october on 2nd place.

[nampigai]

Yea Leto should be like he is in Dune 1. The guy from Twin Peaks is Kyle Mclachlan, He's the one playing Paul.

[Vernius]

Paul? LOL :D

*smacks forhead*

so many years............

they didn't have computer graphics  back then it should look way better

I myself am a big fan of the movie.  The shields looked awesome.  It's a very original depiction of a very original type of energy shield.  I liked the way little chunks of it would break off when the shields hit each other.

The worms were damn good too.  They're so much better than those things from the miniseries.  In fact, I liked almost everything about the movie better than the mini (set design, wardrobe, actors, etc).  Brad Dourif made an excellent Piter.

There were a few neat things about the mini though.  I liked the scene where the Baron snuffs the Spice, like they did in Victorian times.  That steel fan he carried was a neat touch too, not to mention his little rhyming bouts.  It really showed his "genious half", which wasn't really touched on in the movie.

And by the way, AFAIK, Harrison is going to make another miniseries called "Children of Dune", which covers both Dune Messiah and Children of Dune.

[nampigai]

I must say that I like the worms in Lynch's movie better than the ones in Harrison's they look more like worms in Lynch's in the mini's they look like a snake or something. And yes Brad Dourif

[varsh]

I thught the film was great, in fact I still myself prefer it over the mini series though I thought the ending to the mini series was better, though wasn't Paul supposed to have left the knife in Feyd Rautha's throat at the end? I can't remember o_O

Well I have to admit, the acting in the mini series was dreadful, the film had fantastic acting and perfectly done, but the mini series...ACK!

Now the ending...I think the ending was better in the series, much better and they had Ornithopters!!! Sweet ^^, that's prob why it was better. But the only thing I found that was really bad about the series was that they skipped two whole years from ep2 to ep3, and that was the point where Paul and the Fremen were trying to stop the spice mining. And also the decor.....I didn't like it, but I have to admit that both the film and series are awesome, I like them a lot.:)
