Who of you like the Dune movie and why ?
replied 441d
Visually a piece of art. Frank Herberts story and world is also very interesting.

True to the books. Visually gorgeous. Good acting (unlike the '80s movie). Also Frank Herbert is a freaking genius and actually Dune is some of his *least* imaginative work(!)

I liked the old version better

Kyle MacLachlan will always be Paul Atreides

I haven't watch that movie but it's interesting since I like fiction.

Fans of the movie say it is about AI accelerationism in a good way
replied 441d
Pretty interesting, I might watch that when I have free time.

? Isn't AI illegal in the Dune universe? They got these people who do math in their heads instead and stuff. Are we talking the new movie, and is it diverting from the books?
replied 441d
Yes, it is true. Dune has biologically/genetically altered humans and creatures to do heavy math and navigation instead of computers and AI.
replied 441d
Yes.

It is action or fantasy?
