Dune

[Admiral Yi]

I can't remember me no goddamn Oros from the book.  That's volume 1?

[Liep]

What we know so far about the cast of Dune 2020:
Rebecca Ferguson - Lady Jessica Atreides
Timothee Chalamet - Paul Atreides
Oscar Isaac - Duke Leto Atreides
Stellan Skarsgard - Baron Vladimir Harkonnen
Josh Brolin - Gurney Halleck
Jason Momoa - Duncan Idaho
Javier Bardem - Stilgar
Charlotte Rampling - Reverend Mother Mohiam
Zendaya - Chani

That looks quite promising...

No. It was a house briefly named in supplemental material published in 1984, and that Westwood used to flesh out their Mono-like faction. They are not in any novels.

[Tamas]

1. Dune 2
2. Dune 2000
3. miniseries
4. Book
5. Lynch movie ( )

I think I am going to go read Dune. Again.

It is truly one of the greatest science fiction single books of all time.

I hope they can do it credit. I don't think it is impossible, by any means.

A friend in high school lent me the book.  It was paperback printed in the 1980's.  The blurb said that it would soon be made into a major motion picture, which I got confused because didn't know the film had been made over a decade previous.  Wasn't that impressed with the book and was even less impressed with the film.

I think I read it in like two days. Agreed it was fantastic.

I liked the lynch movie.
I think it works better if you haven't read the book first.

For me it was
Dune 1 (on the best game ever list)
Movie
Book
Duke 2000
Mini series

I read the first three books and then stopped. Heard it kinda crapped out after that.

I thought God Emperor was god awful and a slog to get through, but the next book - Heretics, was very good.

Conversely I thought that God Emperor was the second best one after Dune itself and found Heretics and beyond to be poor.

Put our two views together and someone who has read neither has good reason to read both.

I just saw a video about Dune 1. One of the best games ever.
And they're making a new movie.
So lets have a Dune thread!

Merged all the games into one and the movies and TV into one.

What's the order in which you experienced the series?

Dune (movie) - Dune 1 - Dune 2 - Dune (mini series) - Dune 2000.

[Valmy]

Dune 2 was pretty amazing wasn't it? Though I the temptation to Tim every-time the Harkonnen death missile hit you was uncomfortably high.

I am intrigued as to what the missing verb might be.
