Agree,the movie is ok and well done within Villeneuve high standards, but as expected a 2 parts movie is not enough to describe the depths of the Dune book.
Maybe a trilogy or limited series would give more breath to describe the complex world and the size of the events; hopefully an extended version will bring some life into it.
- ModernMech 5y agoHave you watched the SciFi (before it was SyFy) channel Dune and Children of Dune miniseries? Probably about 12 hours long, I enjoyed it.
- gmueckl 5y agoThe Dune miniseries is about 4,5 hours long. If the second Dune movie will have a similar length to the first one, the pair is going to be more than 5 hours long in total. So the movies wouldn't have to be more compressed. That surprised me a little.
- ModernMech 5y agoMe too actually when I saw the runtime. I guess when you take out the commercials it adds up!
- the_af 5y agoUnfortunately the SyFy adaptation reeked of cheapness to me. Plot-wise better than Lynch's movie, but aesthetically terrible, and with some pretty bad acting too.
- doodpants 5y agoEh, yes and no. A lot of the outdoor scenes and effects look pretty poor, presumably due to TV-level funding, but the interior set design and costume design are excellent IMHO. Also, the only bad actor was the one playing Paul; I thought everyone else was fine.
