Once again, the biblical solemnity of Villeneuve's approach - along with the tactile brutalism of his design - have combined into a Timothée Chalamet movie that shimmers with the patina of an epic myth. And once again, the awesome spectacle that Villeneuve mines from all that scenery is betrayed by the smallness of the human...
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!
Many new concepts and ideas are introduced in the earliest chapters of the series, but a key part of the Dune universe is the Spacing Guild Navigators.

Audiences have been anticipating the sci-fi epic Dune: Part Two pretty much since the moment the credits started to roll on Denis Villeneuve’s Dune back in 2021.

The preview didn’t really show much because half of it was already on the trailer, but the cinematography was beautiful. The open desert shots were gorgeous. The hype is real!
As someone who hasn’t played games for more than 15 years now, this makes me want to play again for the nostalgia; but I dont know where to start. I only have a macbook and an old laptop running linux. Will the remaster work on any of those? Is Steam the best way to install it?
I haven’t played games in a loooong time, and this might get me figuring out how I can play it on my spare (and old!) linux laptopS I have a switch but I want to play it on a proper PC, just as I did when I was a kid.
