Did people think it was boring?
This was the darkest ffucking movie i’ve ever seen, not grim dark, like literally could not see shit on the screen half the fucking time. I literally watched it IN the dark.
men in La…… get off ur phones & STOP becoming influencers…. we need GAFFERS ! ! ! these shows dark as HELL i cant see SHIT 😭😭😭
God I want to see big budget, thematically faithful adaptations continue up to God Emperor, if only to see pop culture try to grapple with them
It’s so insanely unsuited to adapting it in a way that fits with the current trends of blockbuster moviemaking. The way that it’s structured, as a series of dialogues, makes me want to see it adapted in a weird arthouse theater way, like Dogville. If it gets made, I assume it will just focus on Jason Momoa action scenes.
The only thing I demand from God Emperor Of Dune on the silver screen is a long, loving, nearly pornographic depiction of Jason Momoa rock climbing.
Please suggest weird arthouse theater movies to me!
My Dinner with Andre is a classic arthouse film in the genre of “waiters giving people the stink eye for staying way past closing”.
Dune in the style of French New Wave. Just a bunch of mundane conversations laden with layers of metaphor and subtext, and a bunch of unhinged, non-diegetic cuts to paintings and ordinary household objects as puns and visual metaphors for the dialogue.
The movie will run four and a half hours and only about fifteen minutes of it will not involve someone monologuing at length.
I think this would work particularly if every aspect of it is taken super seriously as an arthouse project, but Jason Momoa is directed to act like a big dumb action hero and filmed accordingly.
this is how god emperor was meant to be
