Grooving on this, ain’t gonna lie.
It promises to be interesting. I’m getting a lot of spectacle-viewing in my movies so far this year; interesting should be good for a change of pace, I think. And I don’t mind changes from the book, if they’re interesting ones. …I’m over-using that word, sorry. Anyway, it looks fun.
“Define Interesting’? ”
“Oh God, oh God, We’re all gonna die?”
Sounds like a good word for a movie to *me* 🙂
It looks good, but the problem with doing a Dune movie is that the events of the book take a long time, and unless you have three brothers who closely resemble each other between the ages of 13 and 20-something, it’s not going to completely work.
LOTR works because the War of the Ring doesn’t last 10 or 15 years. The Hobbit…well, I suppose you first have to decide if that worked or not. But Dune is so vast and epic in scale that the best a film can do is capture bits and pieces from it.
Hopefully they will be interesting bits and pieces.
Outfits and hairstyles can go a long way in making someone look older or younger.
That would leave the physical size problem. I assume you’re talking about Paul. If they started him a few years older, they could probably pull it off.
