Ok, so I rented the Dune movie, the one by David Lynch. And it was a bit hard to sort out who was who and they said a lot of the names differently, but I enjoyed it. Alia's voice was just bizarre.
They probably could have explained a lot better. Like the whole Kwisatz Haderach thing. I knew because I'd spent a couple of hours reading about Dune stuff on Wikipedia, but it wasn't very well explained in the movie.
Sting. Whose idea was that?!
The guy playing Paul was pretty dishy, and I couldn't think where I'd seen him, so I looked him up on IMDB and he's the guy who played Trey in Sex and the City.
Harkonnen was absolutely disgusting. Really. Horrible. And was it me or does he have incestous tendencies toward Feyd-Rautha? Just, ew. Not about the incest (I think we all know that's not the problem) but Harkonnen was just so disgusting, and as bad an actor as Sting was in that role, he's just too young and good-looking and the whole thing was just wrong.
Speaking of bad acting, does anyone else think that Gurney Halleck in the COD mini is a pretty bad actor? All his lines just seem so forced to me.
And they did the Weirding Way...weirdly. Hmm. Should have thought that through. Anyways, instead of moving lightinng fast, they had sort of gun things which can be fired by saying different words.
