Look, it's no secret that I think the movie adaptation of Dune is really lame. I don't like this
movie, which (yes smartass, I know) flies in the face of the whole "Lamest Parts of Movies I
Like" thing but just hang in there for a few; it's my website, folks.
You see, I hate David Lynch, who was the director of this pile of cinematic ass. What an artsy
cockhead he is. And, before you ask, I read Dune and enjoyed the book.
So, you ask, why am I even bothering to mention Dune if it has no business being here?
Simple: I'm a dork and I like science fiction movies. Dune is a science fiction movie, so that
must mean that I'd rather suffer through it than some lame-ass thing on the Independent Film
Channel that my ex used to make me sit through and then got mad at me when I said
something like, "Well, at least it's got some naked ladies in it."
Here is my main gripe with Dune; the script seems to be based on some kid's seventh-grade
book report. Seriously, watching Dune is like having somebody narrate to you the summary of
the book or listening to the book-on-tape (and having a small amount of illustrations to go
along with it). There aren't only whole, important, pieces of dialogue missing but there are
scenes when you can totally tell the sound editor either fucked up or just was way high and
didn't care anymore. The music often abruptly stops along with the radical and baffling scene
changes.
Hey Dave! Idea: there are these people on movie sets whose whole job is just to keep track
of the mystic and strange idea of 'continuity.' You should consider employing one of these
people. And, one more thing, I saw Star Wars a couple of times and I'm pretty sure that all
three movies came out before Dune. So, that being said, what is going on with the special
effects? If you're gonna cell-shade shit into the film, could you at least hire somebody who
can draw?
God I hate David Lynch.
The worm is the spice and the spice is the worm. Get it? No, you don't. It doesn't make any
sense and it never will if David Lynch has anything to do with it.
