No one had hopes, they’re just pissing on the corpse and saying “do you like this, bigot?”

shes dark enough to not look white, but not too dark as to drive some people away.

The movie might ever play is a racist country like China with that skin tone. Hollywood has learned the people of China don't like our mocha skinned brothers.

Yep. Everyone bitched about how weak Fin was in the latest Star Wars movie but he was going to be a force user until China nixed that.

Hah hah ha. That actor was a unhappy camper. From a epic badass, probably following Luke Skywalker's template to basically a bit player like C3P0.

Villenueve is a great director, but he's not immune from this shit.

He also is part of the problem, he adapts as opposed to creating.

Also, he's married to Tanya Lapointe, who is just about the typical Hollywood female executive.

Directed and produced that garbage.

The man has sold his balls and I have absolutely zero faith that Dune will be any good.

Just watch David Lynch's version again, at least it has heart.

Speaking of David Lynch and heart, The Straight Story is easily one of the best sentimental movies ever made. It could bring warmth to the hearts of the coldest men. It's a great shame that he didn't make more movies like that.

That has one of the most interesting trivia items attached to it I've ever seen for a film.

Richard Farnsworth was terminally ill with bone cancer during the shooting of the film, which had caused the paralysis of his legs as shown in the film. Farnsworth committed suicide the following year, at the age of 80.

Dune is about a giant, angry, gaping Vagina that has too much sand in it. There's also some people, but they're just window dressing. The real main plot and protagonist is a huge fucking vagina. It spits blood and eats seamen and everything.

The point is to destroy and ridicule all good stories.

Amazon? The Cuck Jackson ones obliterated canon and not to mention they tried to have Arwen at Helm's Deep for the wahmen viewers. They replaced Glorfindel saving Frodo for Arwen saving Frodo. Because Arwen "wasn't in the book enough".

Yeah, canon was the last thing on their mind. Watch some of your old favorites, or even general things you watched over the years. This subversion is NOT recent. Frog's been in the pot since before 9-11.

No surprise. I’m glad I know to view any race or gender swap as a major red flag.

I have near-zero confidence that leftists can produce potable media. It saves much dsappointment.

That combined with the coming wave of sterility - mediated by social and chemical and immunological means - portends a lost generation of culture. Woke is an entire loss: spritually and physically.

If you think ANY entertainment made today is going to be good, let alone even decent, you're a fucking retard.

Denis Villeneuve is the most over-hyped waste of time director in the last few years. The Blade Runner sequel was "meh". Never trust a Frenchman. I know on films like this the director doesn't really have that much say anyway though. So to think a bunch of Hollywood execs would give you anything without at least a woke underlying message would be naive. At least sometimes they still give you a good story, just with an improbable cast of diverse geniuses to save the day.

What is this 'hope' you speak of?

I never had any hopes for it from the start. Aside from the original adaptation back in the day, which still wasn't that great, they've never been able to pull it off. This newest iteration is nothing but a hot mess.

ITs a pity how all of media/cinema was destroyed after 2014 and its not possible for big studios to make films/tv anymore. a total pity...

The lesson here is to stop putting any stock in films/tv, especially adaptations. Just seek out the source material if you want good media.

I absolutely adored The Gentleman. What a masculine, no-nonsense crime thriller. Probably Guy Ritchie's most sophisticated film.

I preferred Wrath of Man.

Nice to see him go a darker and less funny tone, I was impressed by it.

People were pinning their hopes on the director, because his last adaptation (or at least the last one I'm aware of) was relatively faithful and a decent movie in its own right. I had hopes until they announced that they had hired a dyslexic casti g director, as Hollywood is wont to do.

He also directed Sicario, the most based movie made in the last decade.
