Also, I’d like an answer to something more fundamental:

I think he has a real opportunity to focus on playing characters who work on their biceps a lot.
Why does Barsanti constantly write like this? What is the point of this first paragraph?
This all feels very much like he got caught getting a bit too up close and personal with a much younger costar and is trying to save his marriage.
Until CGI gets cheap, we’ll never get anything truly amazing from the age of sail.
An NCIS spinoff in the Age of Sail could actually be really cool, dealing with impressment and piracy, meting out floggings as punishments, etc.
I still say we need an NCIS: 1812 spinoff.
It will run for fourteen seasons and have 5 different plots.
What, they making a Jos Biden prequel show?
Sure. But essentially, in the books anyway, he never really “accepts” his destiny. He sort of develops an internal attitude of “Holy shit everyone, this does not end with the glorious defeat of the Harkonnens. It keeps going on to a unstoppable slaughter of trillions.” But no one else has his increasingly “perfect”…
I think Villeneuve gets it. I just think Emma Keates missed it.
The book, “Dune” is a standard Campbell hero’s journey that deals with colonialism.
I personally think the truth is somewhere in between: As he was finishing the typescript of Dune in 1963, he no doubt had ideas for where the story could go, which he probably jotted down. He seems to have felt pretty confident that he had a hit on his hands, so he may very well have been thinking of sequels already…
I am 100% fine with Villeneuve changing what he wants to tell his own story. That is what adaption is all about. I am not a fan of him implying he is showing what Herbert really wanted to say because Herbert is not here to chime in on any truth of that. He also still seems to not 100% understand Paul based on the…
Exactly, Paul is trapped by his visions of the future. No matter what path he takes, people will kill and die in his name. Paul is not power hungry, he had power thrust upon him and the curse of knowing exactly what his actions and inactions will do in the future. He fights against his gifts until he eventually walks…
It works. Through Chani’s eyes, we see Paul for who he truly is: a man as power-hungry as the rest of them.
Wasn’t Messiah written more or less at the same time? Like Herbert planned the first three books or so but “Dune” was published as it was because it made more sense as one book, etc.
The most interesting character in Summer School was Wondermutt.
I guess I’m glad Gary Cole is working but dammit he’s one of our best comic actors and he’s wasted in something like NCIS.
Have never seen an episode.
