TheBananaKing, w Sting is my favorite part of David Lynch’s Dune

I really liked all the Lynch harkonnens - they were just sleazy and degraded by power: not terrifying supervillians, but the Trump family.

Like, they were still a major problem, but because privilege, not any kind of badassery.

I think that’s an aspect that was missed in the Villeneuve dune, along with making Paul too pretty and heroic.

1984 Paul was a sour unlikelable dick, and that was kind of the point for me.

That’s true, Sting is my favorite part of DL’s dune. He played Feyd-Rautha so well.

Also, Patrick Stuart is my favorite part of dune. He was an excellent Halleck.

Kyle McLaughlin though… He was my favorite part of dune, such an outstanding Paul. Always felt a little mature for the role, but he did an amazing job none the less.

That and Alecia Witt… Man, that creepy little girl, and the oddly mismatching voice… My favorite part for sure.

Dean Stockwell…

xilliah, w Fans Are Sharing The Most Frustrating Scenes In All Of 'Star Wars'

The good thing about the new trilogy is that it gave me a lot more appreciation for the prequels.

The first line of the Disney trilogy was "This will begin to make things right." On its own, no biggie. But when you consider the utter dumpster fire of a trilogy that followed, which deliberately went out of its way to despoil the heroes of the previous Star Wars movies and destroy everything that they had worked to accomplish, incredibly frustrating. It's meta-frustrating. You can think of that line right before any of the other individually-frustrating scenes you may think of and it makes it even worse.

bramkaandorp, w 10 Sci-Fi Movies That Didn't Bother With the 'Science' Part

Have to argue against What the bleep do we know.

It is neither science fiction, nor a movie (in the fiction sense). It is a documentary, and as for the science fiction, it isn’t present, and not in the same way that it isn’t present in some of the other movies.

It isn’t there because it was not the intention to make a science fiction movie.

What the bleep do we know was meant as non fiction. You were meant to take it seriously, as usable information.

None of it is actually real, though, and it is filled with pseudoscience. But at its core, it is meant to be watched just like a any other documentary, not as a movie.

neidu2, w ‘Foundation’ Shakeup: David S. Goyer Stepping Back From Duties Amid Budget Clash

Uhm, didn’t I read a few weeks ago that Foundation had been canceled?

no, what you read was there was a pause in production, and the cast had been sent home from eastern europe, at the time the reporting was it was due to "location issues", but it seems now that the studio and the show runner had major budget issues, and it looks like the studio won the fight, but it's most likely going to cost the series in vision and quality, which is paramount for this particular project.

roofuskit,

Production was paused because they were blowing the budget. Not yet cancelled.

slappy, w 10 Sci-Fi Movies That Didn't Bother With the 'Science' Part

Hackers was an incredibly fun movie, that had a ton of techno-babble. Sharknado isn’t even a horror movie due to how dumb it is. Still had an impact.

Oversimplified works in every genre.

thesmokingman, w 10 Sci-Fi Movies That Didn't Bother With the 'Science' Part

Not all SF is hard SF and not all hard SF goes deep into the basis of its hardness. Sturgeon describes SF as asking “what if” which, at its core, does not require an untenable scientific basis.

ruh roh, this does NOT bode well for one of my favorite scifi shows on tv, whenever an originator leaves or changes direct control, the production suffers. every time.

Cwilliams, w Dune 2 Reviews Starting to Come Out and ... Yikes

Can these people just write in English? Its impossible to tell what their actually trying to say

tabarnaski, w Dune 2 Reviews Starting to Come Out and ... Yikes

So, is it good?

scytale, w Dune 2 Reviews Starting to Come Out and ... Yikes

Interesting review and first somewhat negative one I’ve seen, although I’ve been avoiding reviews even though I read the book. I trust in Denis and expect a good movie at the minimum. I personally don’t even rank Dune Part One in my top 3 or 4 of his films. As a big Dune fan though, I expect to enjoy the film AND expect that they will never be able cram everything from the book, so I’m expecting some things to be more shallow or left out entirely. I’m seeing it this weekend so cross fingers!

fluxion, w ‘Spaceman’ Review: Adam Sandler’s Sci-Fi Drama Delivers a Destination Worth the Journey

“Adam Sandler’s sci-fi drama” is not a sentence I ever expected to see

Just imagine how “worthy” if Sandler weren’t in it.

  1. Several works receiving large numbers of votes were ruled ineligible for unstated reasons, which from leaked emails appears to be the US-based administrators unilaterally deciding that they might cause political offence.
  2. A number of Chinese-language nominations appear to have been entirely disallowed.

The second, in what seems to be a mass disenfranchisement of Chinese voters, means that the composition of the shortlists, as they were presented to be voted on, was entirely unreliable, with an unknown number of Chinese nominees denied their chance at contending.
