I’ve been on a roll lately. Riki-Oh, John Carter… and then last night we watched Dune. Yes, the David Lynch one. And I mean, it’s maybe not a good movie. I love the book and I’m maybe not super excited by how it was adapted.
But seriously.
This.
I mean, come on.
I’m a little bit in love with this movie. For all of the things bad about it, there’s so much weirdness that I can’t help but be a little obsessed.

I’m with you. It’s NOT a good movie. It really makes little to no sense. But it’s so. Much. Fun. I love the visuals, I love the score, I love the weird performances, I love the weirdness of the whole thing. It’s kinda magical. The Sci-Fi miniseries was a better adaptation and works better as a STORY, but it’s just not as visually interesting or fun.

I forgot to mention the score! The score is fantastic.
