There’s good, solid talk that there’s going to be a big-budget move adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune.
Sweet!
I was annoyed by the 1984 version.
I was more pleased with the SciFi Channel miniseries’ covering the events of Dune, Dune Messiah, and Children of Dune…
But this is supposed to be a BIG BUDGET adaptation of Dune which stays true to the novel.
I’m a-twitter with anticipation…

The David Lynch version was–bizarre. But then, there was a certain bizarre-ness to the whole Dune universe as a whole.
The sci-fi channel version was better, yes.

I agree; and I’m very excited about the possibility of a new version that remains even truer-er to the books…

The mini series had terrible acting and B grade sets. The Lynch version had its own peculiar feel which made it more enjoyable but differently to the books.
