I watched Dune last night. Surprisingly it wasn't terrible. Fight scenes were top notch.

Try to watch it with good video and sound. I was using a crappy monitor and shit download and regret it because the cinematography and set design were very good. I prey all the capeshit cucks don't ruin the franchise by hugging it to death. There was some globo homo shit. I did not like chani or black Liet Kynes. The Fremen were also seemingly multi racial. Javier Bardem didn't have many lines but held his own as Stilgar.

Shoutout to u/jasoncarswell for making the https://saidit.net/s/dune subverse.

Reading the synopsis and acclaim I was expecting to love the Dune book but I found it underwhelming. Thought the movie could still be interesting but it actually lacked a lot of intrigue and world building that were the best parts of the book. Dune has a lot of cool ideas but I never found the story or characters engaging.
