Dune: Part Three | Official Teaser Trailer

Loved 1 & 2. This is going to be great.
Rewatching them now.

The only thing I miss is Sting's codpiece from the Lynch version đź‘€

2 sucked, they used worms like trains. How do 15 people get on one worm? simul-jump? magic? they literally sync their worm attack at the end. Man, what a dumb film that was. Nothing like the first.

The Dune books has one great entry, as will the films.

I enjoyed 1 more than 2. With all other major sci-fi franchises ruined. Dune is all we have left.
 
I've only seen both Dune movies just once. When watching the trailer it struck me how hard it was to differentiate scenes from Dune 3 from the previous two movies. If you'd told me that half of those scenes were taken from Dune 1 and 2 I'd have believed you.

It all looks the same. None of the action scenes, fight scenes and big battles have their own visual identity that set each of them apart. They all merge into one because of how samey everything looks and sounds.

I really liked Dune 1 and 2 but those movies never had the cultural impact of other popular SF/fantasy movie franchises. The Dune series have a very clear visual identity, but that identity is also what makes it so hard to keep scenes and events apart in your memory.

The worm thing you describe is in the first book, the fighting is like 30 of a 600 pages book. Messiah is my favorite in the series.
 
I'm ready. Even if Denis took away my murder toddler, I'm here day one.

Looks like they're merging some parts from Children of Dune into this as well.

What about the Eraserhead guy making noise-music looking completely insane? And the juice box insect thing? The demon murderer baby. One of the best soundtrack ever made.

"It is by will alone I set my mind in motion it is by the juice of sapho that thoughts acquire speed, lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion".
 
I've never read the books, so these movies are my first experiance with Dune. I got to admit, I'm bored to death of the ugly desert, was hoping they'd get off it and go someplace interesting/visually gorgeous or at least new for the third one, is it really all on the desert world again?

The Dune series is awesome in concept but barely functional as a sci-fi story. The first book is legendary and extremely influential and I can look past some things. The books after that gets weirder and weirder until the story is ruined.

The second film rushed everything. The Harkonnen went from dangerous enemies to clowns in the second film, I couldn't stomach it. They should have made 5 films, and built it properly.

Arakis is the majority of the focus of the franchise till at least book 5 of 6, there may be more time spent off planet in this movie than the other 2 movies, but it'll still be the main location of the story.
 
I didn't even realize they were already working on this. Dang time flies.

This isn't going to be a popular take, but I kinda don't understand why people like these movies so much. They are pretty turgid without much substance IMO. :messenger_grinning_sweat:
 
these movies do not do the Herbert masterpiece of a book justice sadly.

They are not bad, just not good enough in my humble opinion.
