Surely one of the worst movies ever made. The Scifi Channel's efforts, whilst not without their flaws, were vastly more faithful to both the story and the overall feel of the books. As for the prequels? Forget them! We can only keep our fingers crossed that any new movie keeps faith with Frank's original vision. - Tony Seymour Sun, 01 Jun 2008 12:16:18 +0100 http://sffmedia.com/films/science-fiction-films/167-why-we-need-paramounts-new-dune-movie.html#comment-158 if you give me 100m$ i will do it! - next gen director Sat, 12 Apr 2008 07:22:38 +0100 http://sffmedia.com/films/science-fiction-films/167-why-we-need-paramounts-new-dune-movie.html#comment-145 So are his sequels. But to call them Brian Herbert's books doesn't give credit to the destroyer of Sci-Fi universes, Kevin Anderson. Both of whom are now being called "co-producers" of the new movie. Now they can destroy FH's legacy on film just like they did in print! - Freakzilla Sat, 22 Mar 2008 12:56:08 +0100 http://sffmedia.com/films/science-fiction-films/167-why-we-need-paramounts-new-dune-movie.html#comment-127 it would be nice if toto s soundtrack used again in the new movie. - malex Sat, 23 Feb 2008 10:32:27 +0100 http://sffmedia.com/films/science-fiction-films/167-why-we-need-paramounts-new-dune-movie.html#comment-125 I think I would much rather see a treatment of Brian Herbert's prequel books first, someone could keep themselves busy for 2 decades doing the entire series from Brian's stuff through his fathers 6 originals. He also has the 2 books he finished based on his fathers notes for "Dune 7". The Herbert's have created an immense imaginary world that would look tremendous on the big screen. - Jeff C Wed, 13 Feb 2008 12:31:08 +0100 http://sffmedia.com/films/science-fiction-films/167-why-we-need-paramounts-new-dune-movie.html#comment-118 We need a new Dune, but it really has to be grand - like Jackson's LOTR. The thing that scares me most is the casting - which Lynch actually did very well. Who would you cast as Paul, for example? Or Jessica? It will be so easy to fall to clich - Revital Salomon Sun, 27 Jan 2008 06:51:40 +0100 http://sffmedia.com/films/science-fiction-films/167-why-we-need-paramounts-new-dune-movie.html#comment-106 ...the stupid wristband wielding Fedaykin. ZOOOOOOOMMM! Although the Bene Gesserit Reverend Mother was spot on! ...and the cute fishy fishy Guild Navigators! - Roger Dupuy Fri, 18 Jan 2008 07:52:42 +0100 http://sffmedia.com/films/science-fiction-films/167-why-we-need-paramounts-new-dune-movie.html#comment-105 To make Dune a success the Director has to do what Peter Jackson did for Lord of the Rings. - Martin Fri, 18 Jan 2008 01:12:18 +0100
