"This year he got all the dune pops and said he even has to drive like 40 minutes to find the last one in the set."
"Just saw Dune II and for the first time *none* of the preview trailers included a superhero film."
"What's stopping you from steering humanity down the Golden Path?!"
"After watching Dune ii, I was reminded how beautiful Timothee was, and, as a descendant of the prophet myself, identified with him."
"Dune II is not some epochal cinematic achievement, neither in its cinematography, its story, its acting or the subject matter. However, both the critics and the general audience have been giving it scores above 9 and 90 pretty much across the board."
"I see this with my friends who are Dune fans but generally hate the marvel/Star Wars box office fanfare, yet they cheer on Dune raking in the bucks."
"I lolled really hard when Grimes recently confirmed my theory by saying she cried when she was imagining her new kid as Paul Atreides."
"This will not be an acceptable excuse if Dune Part 2 doesn't come out."
"For movies I'd say Parasite and possibly Dune 2 will go down well in history"
"never pay full price for Dune, Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep? or The Left Hand of Darkness, you can totally find an old copy for like three bucks if you are willing to look"
"Can't use guns because shields have rendered them useless. Can't use shields in the desert because they attract worms. Use knives to fight in the desert, even though nobody has shields."

"I don't think I've ever seen a big budget movie with more women serving looks than Dune... It was a very female-heavy film but it didn't feel patronizing. I don't think I've ever seen this many mothers in a big budget blockbuster before."
"First impressions: it looked cool but the script and especially the pacing were terrible, felt extremely empty underneath the visuals. Friends outright hated its length and ending."
"After watching a couple interviews of her i sense something deeply malicious."
"Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris and Nancy Pelosi are JUST like the sisterhood of the Bene Gesserit! Buttigieg is Paul and Obama is the Duke Leto with Biden being Duncan Idaho. Trump is The Baron, Bernie Sanders is the Beast Rabban & Ron Dessantis is Feyd!"
"Dune 2 huge at the box office? "This film erases Muslim culture and THIS ISNT OK. Crying at the racism." Yes I've seen both of these."
"Somebody was mean to me on set, but I'm not gonna say who. I'm gonna go ahead and let you guys figure it out!"
"I recently saw the movie. It was good, not great, but the amount of takes, commentaries, opinion pieces seems to be way out of proportion for what the movie was."
"Saw Part One and Two over two nights with a friend. I generally hate science fiction, don't know the book and never saw the Lynch film. Thought Part One was OK but really dragged out."
"The Oscars had sequels nominated in all three ways, Roman numerals, Arabic numerals, and English writing: Inside Out 2, Dune: Part Two, and Gladiator II."
"I tried saying Fear is the mind-killer over and over and it did nothing"
"Really great blockbuster, looking forward for more Dennis Villeneuve movies."
"A boy who was supposed to be a girl is born
He was trained from youth in the ways of a sisterhood
Also learns to pitch his voice like a woman
He learns he is to be the messiah (a boy who is also a woman)
Picks up some daddy issues along the way
Takes the water of life (a drug explicitly for wom"
"Tonight when I get off work and feed my bunnies, I'm going to draw a bath and read my kindle, right now I'm reading classic fantasy/science fiction books and my head is full of Dune and it's world before I go to bed"
"Even a movie like Dune, which is a good sci-fi movie for today's standards, feels charmless in a way where I can't imagine it possibly leaving any sort of impact."
"Even Dune's OST was forgettable, considering how many amazing things it did with sound design."
"it reminded me a bit of David Lynch's Dune: a mess but some compelling visuals"
"They thought Dune (2021) was kind of mid, they also seemed to think the book was mid too."
"Anna Taylor-Joy has just 30 seconds of screen time in Dune 2"
"i don't really watch television but i enjoyed Dune and Eraserhead"
"in Japan it's like marching in perfect synch with a whole battalion, while in Brazil it feels like doing the sandwalk from Dune"
"WTF, no Feyd Rautha? You need an evil twink to counter the good twink played by Chalamet. I don't believe anybody they got today would be as good as the twinkiness of Sting in Lynch's Dune. Lynch's Lady Jessica was also far hotter than this Dune."
"While there are certainly some problematic parts with the work of Frank Herbert's, Dune, and it is by no means a work of great intellectual prowess, I think the pragmatic and utilitarian way the Bene Gesserit exist in this fictional narrative comes close to the ideal I have in mind for women"
"I'd already seen Mulholland Drive and Inland Empire and Dune and all of Twin Peaks"
