The film must flow.



The Lynch version of Dune, for me, had the right feel. Oh, it was flawed, way bad fucking flawed. But there was a fundamental understanding of the book that resonated.

The 2000 Sci-Fi Channel miniseries? Totally bloodless. Any points it scored by being "more accurate" were totally demolished by its complete fucking boringness.

I fear we'll never have anybody truly do it justice.

More might-have-been.
