The original novel consists of ‘books’ 1-3, pretty sure the plan is to adapt it into a trilogy of movies. A lot has changed in franchise filmmaking since the Lynch adaptation, and everyone knows one of the biggest problems was trying to squeeze it all into one movie.

I feel like you can’t really make a good Dune adaptation in the runtime expected of a film. If Lynch had somehow gotten to make whatever a Game Of Thrones-type prestige blockbuster series would have looked like in 1984, and all his creative decisions and approach to adapting the source material remained intact, just…

Well, that finally confirms it: we’re living in the future.

I’d be super excited. Lynch understands something that a lot of filmmakers don’t; in the future everyone is dressed like an asshole.

I really didn’t care for the SciFi channel series. Just off the bat, I hated that they made the Atreides family blonde, because they are the good guys, including Jessica, as if their hair color wasn’t actually integral to their characterization. The Atreides are descended from the Greeks, with black hair, and Jessika…

Aromatic doesn’t imply good or bad, but the willfully ignorant RWNJ echo chamber denizens are definitely a bunch of fart-sniffers.

oh this is superior professional psy-ops level trolling here. reminds me of the save-the-library campaign that fronted as a ‘book burning’ party to celebrate the closing of their local library.

He will probably crow about his health care plan’s success in his next speech at a disaster site.

You are correct. Healthcare.gov is the ACA/Obamacare enrollment website, and enrollment is open right now.

(The Trump fans will REALLY hate that as it illustrates how stupid many of them are.)

RonMonSanto’s answer is missing one additional point. At the time the ACA was put into place, Republicans (Trump’s political party) began referring to it as Obamacare in a derogatory way (yes there’s sadly racial undertones there). When people were polled about the healthcare plan they’d respond negatively to…

You don’t understand how insurance works do you? You can’t get insurance to the older people without reducing the overall risk by also including younger/healthier people. It all works in the sense that down the road those younger people are old and need the insurance more, but the new crop of younger people are there…

You’re giving the tRumpers way more credit for intelligence than is deserved. Kimmel’s playing checkers, at best. The other side can’t differentiate between their own assholes and any other warm, slightly aromatic opening.

Mencken also said, “As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”

Somewhat unfair. Kimmel’s playing master 3D chess against novice Tic-Tac-Toe players.

We are talking about the people Facebooking and Tweeting him being imbeciles. There is no Trumpcare. It is Obamacare. He is trolling these people into visiting the website, signing up, and seeing that the program isn’t the work of the devil like they have been propagandized too. But they all think it is this amazing…

Good god when did the country get so stupid?

This is gold, nothing tops letting imbeciles make imbeciles of themselves in public.

I suppose this will fool the same sort of idiot who thinks that Obamacare was a failure so Congress stepped in and replaced it with the ACA. Of which there are many.
