FUCKIN' FINALLY WE HAVE A TRAILER!!!

And the trailer uses a version of "ECLIPSE" by Pink Floyd.
That's still one of the few songs that tend to choke me up.
This version that was composed by Hans Zimmer for the trailer is AWESOME!!!

Read "DUNE" at least three times during the 70s and 80s.
Shit is still a CLASSIC!!!
I read the next two books after.
But they were trash in my opinion.

With Denis Villaneuve at the helm for this latest outing, I have hope.
That Dude is Film's new Sci-Fi Visionary.

On A Sidenote...
I attended a sneak preview of David Lynch's film in '84.
When TOTO's name came up as that film's Composers,
I never laughed so hard out loud during a film in my life.
And I think I still have my DUNE glossary that was handed out at the theater.

Looks like horse shit.
This based on an old time movie?
It looks like it is trying to be Star Wars. We have seen a space desert planet before.
Nice try. Needs another trailer for me to be interested. Need to see the plot.

Looks boring like the original. I was so young when I saw it though, freaked me out a little. But also intrigued me. Might watch this when it hits something free.

I read all of the books including all of the prequels. Pure sci-fi gold. I think those books more than Star trek and star wars, subconsciously influenced me to become an engineer.

Ohhhh. Just seeing this now. Ok. Ok.

1965?? Listen NEVER heard of this shit. Ever.

How old are you niggas? How the hell you reading books from 1965?

Give me a break.

So Dune was already a movie and Star Wars wasn't sued?


Dune ....inspired George Lucas to create Star Wars

the 1965 Novel Dune by Frank Herbert inspired most of what’s considered Sci-Fi today

It looked like a bite but now I see Dune came before cause Star Wars was the 80s.

Sorry I wasn't alive in the 60s to see the Dune movie also they do not play it on tv EVER.

So I dont know how come of y'all know so much about it. Y'all wasn't alive either.


So you are saying star wars bit dune?

I've been trying to get interested in Dune for 35 years. I tried in 1984 and it just didn't grab me. Shit seemed over written and boring. I hope this one changes my mind.

Are you really shitting on dudes for reading books that came out before they were born?

No. I am not shitting on them.
I am questioning how they got access to it.
Cause DUNE is not popular.
Do you not see the question marks?
Why is asking a question shitting on someone?

Y'all niggas are overly negative or sensitive or something.

No one is trying to hurt y'all. Relax.

Dune (all 7 books) was and still is very popular.... especially by writers (who create most of the content for film/tv)

Game of Thrones borrows a lot from Dune, they've made major films and television series out of the books

2000 sci fi channel series

Dune is not popular? Yet we are still talking about something in 2020 that came out in the 60s. Stop being retarded.

I see it is popular to y'all. No one really knows what Dune is bro.
Xmen, Spiderman, Star Wars, Superman, Batman, TMNT, are popular.

Dune is not that. Are you serious?

I found out about it this morning bro.

I am not even dissing the shit. It looks better than the Fast and the Furious.

But this shit looks like some lame Blade Runner meets Star Wars.

Oh then i definitely got to go in then but i heard they long and got a lot of references dense text and complex narration?

Yeah I have been waiting this flick to drop and you're on point about them being long with all the things you referenced.

I'm going to watch the 84 version again right before I go check this version out.

Dune and Foundation ....inspired George Lucas to create Star Wars

the 1965 Novel Dune by Frank Herbert inspired most of what’s considered Sci-Fi today

Fixed

The Lord of the rings and dune are the godfathers of fantasy and space sci-fi.

I would add Foundation to the list since Dune was heavily influenced by the Foundation series.

Tales of the Earthsea,Dune and the Foundation series are my next three series I'm going to get real soon..

I would love for them to explore the Spacing Guild Navigators... In addition to folding space- Its these MoFos whom are doing all of the dirty under-handed shit, and pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Sorry bro. What are you talking about. You gonna compare the popularity of Dune to Star Wars?

Dune is more popular? Ok that is your opinion you have the right. Sorry you feel that way.

How is my opinion wrong?

Dude the Dune movie make mad money at the box office? Do you know what popularity means?

It means people know about it.
