Finally got around to watching Dune
Finally took the time to sit down and watch Dune. For reference I’m not a huge sci fi fan but I can appreciate it. I remember watching the one from 2000 but I never watched the 80s one because I was too young (45F for context)
First of all Timothee Chalamet is a very handsome young man, I can see what the fuss is about in my mom friend groups.
But importantly, there were so many parts of the movie I just didn’t follow. I had a tough time understanding the different factions and the different politics. On top of that I had a tough time following what was going on. Is this the kind of movie where I needed knowledge of the books going into it? Or the type of movie that needs to be watched more than once?
Don’t get me wrong it’s a beautiful movie and I want to keep watching the second one in preparation for the third one. But I just want some help appreciating it!
