Sorry…Was planning to watch it tomorrow...
Can't wait for Dune 2...
Watched The Marvels and didn't hate it. The extremely low expectations probably helped. Was fun, very daft and quite incohesive at times. Thought the singing planet was the kind of thing that would be in a GoTG film. Not great, but not terrible. Much rather watch this than the boring, self-absorbed, boring, self-important, laborious, hugely unoriginal, boring, pompous Avatar 2 any day of the week!
My nephew was saying the same the other day...
Bad Batch and The Acolyte are coming up...
I'd read that this was a film to avoid, so I did.Having thought about it more over night, it's the characterisation that bugs me.
I don't like how they portrayed Paul's mum, I don't like the route his relationship with Chani goes once he becomes leader, I don't like the overly religious element to his leading the Fremen, I don't like how Stilgar could literally be a fundamentalist street preacher and the character would be no different, and I don't like how the film is all about the Benegesuit scheming rather than a more galactic "plans within plans". Everyone just seems to go along with being manipulated.
This could have been all time good, instead it's just another film ruined by Holywood rewritting chunks of it for no reason.
