Nice, I needed a modern Dune game, and the studio behind it is solid.
But it's a good reminder of how EA shit all over Westwood.

Yeah, Northgard was great so I have high hopes… even more so if this comes to mobile.

Dune II was an all-timer for me… absolutely loved that game!

I finally finished the book, though I did the last couple hundred pages with an audiobook because I kept falling asleep. The whole thing is here:

Couple of bookfag questions because I always get distracted during audiobooks:

Great book.  Can’t wait for part two of the film. I hope they don’t make it into a trilogy.

It’s like if Siskel and Ebert reviewed books and somehow had a baby

Do you have another working link?

Finally saw on HBO Max. Never read books and didn’t watch 1984 version so I came in “clean.”  Overall I liked it. Probably biggest complaint was the mom whispering most of her lines so I couldn’t understand her. I even had to rewind and switch to subtitles for parts. Looking forward to the second part.

Florence Pugh and Harry Styles rumored to be joining the cast. Script is done. DV says it’s going to be the biggest challenge of his career.

Expand  

I love her so much

Also Harry Styles is a busy boy now - Dunkirk, his mid-credits scene from Eternals as Starfox (likely setting him up for future roles) and he has two more movies, in addition to the rumored Dune part 2.  Somewhere @Bama Chick is very happy.

Racking up the sound and visuals awards

Expand  

Virtually everyone I know complained that there were so many lines uttered that were inaudible.  I agreed that it was one of the worst jobs of sound mixing I have ever heard. I saw it at the theater with high quality sound and then again at home.  Not better in either case.  The august style of the film overwhelmed the dialogue.  But, it still won Best Sound; so what do I know?

My system at home didn’t give me any issues hearing really any lines. Every Nolan movie is impossible to hear, this was not imo. Oscar Isaac’s yells basically every line he has once on Arakis

Harry Styles has to be Feyd right?

Expand  

I guess if Sting can kill it, Styles can take a swing. 
 

I wonder if they cast Pugh as Alia? I don’t think Pugh would sign on to be the scribe/narrator. There is precedent for Alia being portrayed by an older actress. See the Syfy mini-series.
 

Alia will always be a terrifying children of the corn type in my mind. Lynch nailed Alia in the 1984 film.
