This is what they do with woke stuff though. They throw together a decent movie and make it woke. This trains people to associate woke with "good". There's no hidden: "I made it woke so I could make a based storyline". No, it has always been: we're corrupting based storylines with woke.
They throw together a decent movie and make it woke.
It's only considered "decent" because people have absolutely no standards. Look at Dunc. Both movies are not just wokified but are also simply terrible. People praise the first Dunc when it's actually an incredible boring and badly written movie. Visually impressive shots with boring visuals as paradoxical that may sound. Everything has a brutalist design. Everything is a variation of grey and brown. No color whatsoever. And yet people still praise that heap of garbage.
Uuuh explosions uuuuh forgettable Hans Zimmer soundtrack uuuh stupid chanting uuuh ten thousand shots of sand and Zendaya dream sequences. 10/10 movie!
And do not get me started on how that French cunt absolutely obliterated the story. Calling these movies Dune is even more ridiculous than calling Ellen Page a man.
If you mean that 2021 Dune movie, no kidding it's terrible. I haven't read the book since I was a kid, but it can't be as bad as that movie. I fell asleep, and I can suffer some slow movies. Lots of older movies are slow and light on action, yet in a lot of cases manage to keep attention. Dune was just boring and ugly.
I haven't read the book since I was a kid, but it can't be as bad as that movie.
Considering that the French cunt stripped everything that makes Dune Dune from the story, no it's not. It is quite literally not Dune and anyone who says the opposite should be locked up in an insane asylum.
Even the very foundation of the story isn't explained. What is spice and why is it and Dune so vitally important? If you've only watched the movies you won't know the answer. 1984 Dune explained more in the first 5 minutes than those two movies did in their whole 5 fucking hours of runtime.
People like to shit on Lynch's version but that movie actually feels and looks like Dune and is actually fun even if it takes a lot of liberties with the story. The fan cut fixes quite a few of those liberties and turn the movie from a bad adaption (story wise) into quite a decent adaption while the mini series remains the only great adaption of Dune.
Kyle MacLachlan was absolutely brilliant in the role -- he came in with a sense of mischievous wonder. It was a tough role to pull off to both portray a character who understands the world but has a sense of awe and wonder about how it works so he's both explaining to the audience and being explained to by other characters the necessary information the audience needs to know in order to understand the worldbuilding.
That movie was actually pretty good, whether you've read the books or not, because it setup the baseline for what you needed to understand within that sci-fi universe and kept the pace moving at a rapid clip to try to get everything in as quickly as possible within its runtime.
There were issues for sure, but there were some absolutely epic moments, too. Paul riding in on the Shai-Hulud near the end was cinematic mastery.
Plus, Sting was cool in that flick -- he didn't have to say or do much to come across as a right sodding prick in that film, and it worked.
It's an example of atmospheric 'slow cinema', similar to Bladerunner 2049. Both have rotten 'woke' cores, but people can 'experience' the story just the same if they looked past all the ham-fisted woke creative decisions, typically involving feminist themes.
I disagree. Duncs story is not minimalistic. It's non-existant. A movie like The Lighthouse has a minimalistic story. The Astartes mini series has a minimalistic story. Minimalistic stories still have substance. Dunc doesn't have any substance whatsoever. Not in its story nor in its visuals. Great cinematography yes but that's it.
Dunc tells as much of a story as a toddler that hasn't learned how to speak yet. They're both just babbling on without any rhyme or reason.
Also Dunc isn't slow cinema either. Because half of the scenes in that movie serve no purpose. It's just "Oh look pretty visuals!" and "OH LOOK IT'S FUCKING ZENDAYA AGAIN FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME DESPITE HER NOT BEING PART OF THE MOVIE!"
Nearly ten years ago I said this is what would become the standard -- the new and pervasive way to inculcate the masses with Marxism.
The award institutions like BAAFTA/Academy Awards have forced it so that you have to have woke material in the movie to even be considered for nomination (same thing with games).
This means that whether you're a based writer/director or not, the studio is not going to pass up a nomination opportunity to sate your auteur sensibilities. They know that adding a tagline to a film trailer "From the Academy-nominated/winning...." adds legitimacy to the movie, director, actor, etc.
What they've done is create a hierarchy of woke that cannot be bypassed for any studio that wants in on awards-considerations, and I don't know of a studio that doesn't want that recognition for marketing purposes? So everything downstream executive decisions -- whether the execs are woke or greedy -- will end up being affected by woke regardless.
Worse yet, is that as you stated -- every normie will eat this up because [insert favourite actor/director/brand/franchise/etc. here] is being released and they have to go see it, even though the trailer is rife with tells that it's been compromised with the woke virus.
Woke will not only become the standard of all media going forward, but every other normie out there will be defending it because -- as you said -- they've been trained with a Pavlovian response to think woke is good.
Yeah, they will. But the video leaks posted online are tearing this movie up. The dialogue is atrociously dumb. There's no grandeur to any of it. It literally plays out like a CW teen drama. It's that offensive. I'm downloading them now before they get DMCA'd.
I was perusing the RT comments on it, which I guess are supposed to be verified somehow that they actually paid for the movie so in theory watched it. Reading through those a huge chunk of the reviews sound like the type of people who wanted a CW teen drama. "Greatest movie since Avengers" I mean really, that's the best movie you can come up with. I have no intention of watching it, but I'm starting to think there's some sort of trigger in these terrible movies that hits their programming to immediately hail it, and I never got that software installed.

it's all in the trailers. I can't quite put it into words, but there's a certain pacing and framing that trailers take on when a movie is supposed to be "the greatest thing ever" "a generation defining masterpiece".
You combine that framing with the clout that the Odyssey has as one of mankind's oldest living stories, and you get the programming you're talking about.
Imo Nolan stans are the worst and legitimately low IQ. They are raving about muh IMAX this and muh 70mm IMAX that, as if watching a movie on a giant 4:3 screen can polish a turd. At least woketards know that they are lying to push an agenda.
All RT and most media reviews are fake, even the negative ones. Either you toe the line or stop being invited to premieres. If you stop being invited to premieres, your articles will get way less traffic and you will become less relevant as a reviewer simply due to momentum. Even the economist publishing an honest review is probably some form of contrarian payback. Maybe they didn't feel treated well enough considering the prestige of the publication or didn't get a private audience with Nolan. It's always been a shitshow, we just didn't know about it 20 years ago.
The most recent Star Wars trilogy proved it. Same situation. Everyone was ripping it another asshole while the RT scores just climbed and climbed. I forget which other movies it was, but it's absolutely rigged. Just like Zuckerborg has admitted to Congress that our "trending" feeds on FB and Instagram are manipulated in certain regions to influence elections or suppress actually trending news. It's all fake. They control everything we see.
Rotten Tomatoes is partially owned by Warner Bros. They're not exactly in the business of telling people not to go see movies because they're bad. They curate reviews to make those tomato meters as high as possible.

This review is a trojan horse.

If you think that Dune movie was bad, the 1984 version was the worst movie ever made.

May your sleeves always get wet when washing your hands.
Huh I kinda liked the first 2 parts, but I already know the story.
It's an example of atmospheric 'slow cinema', similar to Bladerunner 2049. Both have rotten 'woke' cores, but people can 'experience' the story just the same if they looked past all the ham-fisted woke creative decisions, typically involving feminist themes.
What story? There is no story in Dunc. There is no story in Odyssey. The story was butchered and discarded.
There is a story in Dune. It's just minimalistic as typical for 'slow cinema'.
I disagree. Duncs story is not minimalistic. It's non-existant. A movie like The Lighthouse has a minimalistic story. The Astartes mini series has a minimalistic story. Minimalistic stories still have substance. Dunc doesn't have any substance whatsoever. Not in its story nor in its visuals. Great cinematography yes but that's it.

Whatever the case, the attempt was to make a 'slow burn' movie, which conformed to the 'slow cinema' template.
It had its moments, but I mostly watched it in the cinema because of a free ticket. :')
So basically the usual Nolan movie.
Yeah, you're right.
TROJCEPTION! 😵💫

I bet millions of normies will nonetheless pay money to consume this goyslop.

Okay, then. In that case I definitely won't be taking it into my city.
I've seen several reviews and reviewers ripping this movie to pieces, and yet... 96% critic and 97% audience ratings on RT.
Is there any way to prove that RT falsifies ratings on movies like this? Can we prove some reviews are fake, or negative reviews are scrubbed, etc.?
