Dune is a tough book to turn into a movie, waaaaaay too much detail. It takes a certain skill to pull it off. I had read all the books and still found the movie confusing. By the way the author of Dune thought the movie was great! Go figure.
Dune's author actually liked that self-indulgent pile of excrement? It was the only time I felt bad for the environment poluting chemicals being wasted on celluloid.The parts I actually stayed awake (& have never fell asleep on a movie before) for reeked, BADly!
Yes, that what was said in a SF fanize at the time. I am not arguing with you that Dune was badly done. I am saying the books were better than the movie.
their eyes glowed ultra-blue intermittantly?PS: Try reading "Blade" some time. It had nearly nothing in common with the movie & was far superior.
Actually it did, it was from the use of "spice". In a book you can explain such things.
