  • Perhaps reading the books years ago helped me. I don’t think it was needed but I was in love with that world already.

    The writing is beyond science fiction. It’s like reading poetry while in love. Every line hits and every character feels significant, even the minor ones.

    The movies brought that significance even more to life. I suspect that if you watched them a second time details would show that you might’ve missed the first time.

    I personally love the way these movies are paced. I know where it goes and I hope it’s not only a trilogy. There is so much more for Villeneuve to show.

    I’d say that after reading Dune then seeing the excellent movies, I can’t enjoy Star Wars the same. In case anyone missed it, Star Wars copied Dune.

    I also love the Avatar movies for different reasons and I find people that criticize them to be mostly insufferable idiots that don’t know how to enjoy things.
