Dune: Part 2 Trailer

[Signalstar]

I just finished reading Dune.

Then I saw Dune Part One on Max.

Then I saw Dune Part Two in IMAX the next day.

I am all Duned out for the moment.

Mini reviews of each:

Dune (Book) - I don't read much sci-fi. This was pretty neat. Great world building. Loads of interesting ideas. Some interesting philosophical underpinnings. The prose was not particularly smooth, clear, or eloquent. Some characters and plotlines left a bad taste in my mouth. Probably too long.

Dune Part One - Really well done and established the world onscreen in a way that was respectful to the source material and approachable by the mainstream. I wish i saw this in a theater. Oscar Isaac is great as Leto.

Dune Part Two - Great theatrical experience. Made some smart changes from the book. Pretty brutal in its violence.

I will read Dune Messiah once the movie is announced or completes production. Thankfully Messiah seems to be shorter and from what I understand is the only other essential read in the saga. I will not read any more Dune books after that one.
