Re: Movie Thread
Did they mention the Butlerian Jihad or did they ignore that concept again - the whole reason people mutate themselves into living computers. It's not there. But I do love Herbert's genial reaction to the 1984 film (talks about it in the foreword of one of the books). He wasn't even mad that the fi...

Re: Movie Thread
Dune Part 2 was really really good. Caught me offguard, actually, because I thought the first one was crap. And not for being half of the story or anything, it legitimately ignored so much of the novel's characterisation and worldbuilding. This one makes up for that, has better visuals and superb ac...

Wayne Pygram does a wonderful Australian Peter Cushing. It's a shame he only appeared as an extra in Revenge of the Sith.

Re: Non-cape tv show
meanwhile, I suspect Kyle MacLachlan is playing an SNL sketch version of David Lynch
Cooper has one character trait, which is being a massive troll to everyone. But in the most esoteric of ways.
EDIT: I want to add that I am massively enjoying the show

I feel bad for that one-eyed woman obsessed with drapes. She's way cuter than whoever Everett McGill wants to have sex with.

Re: Non-cape tv show
So let me see if I follow this... Detective Cooper is gonna throw rocks at a glass bottle while a deputy reads out names. And if he smashes it, the last person named is the main murder suspect.
