LOL It was ok, but I think not as great as it was made out to be.
I agrree. Mostly people were impressed with the special effects.

I was never a fan of Dune either.The special effects were pretty good but I think by the second prequel I had no idea of what was going on. The only movie more confusing was Dune. Even the book was confusing.

I never saw the movie. Having not liked the book, I knew that I would hate the movie.The movie was worse then the book .... they tried to compress like a 1000 page book into one movie. Was just crazy.

LOL The same here. Not sure what possessed me to see the movie.
Sadly, there have been great books made into lousy movies, too, so you can't ever be sure that a movie is worth seeing.
I am trying to think of a movie that was better than the book upon which it was based, but I can't think of one.
I believe that is true, in part, because to capture all the action in most novels a movie would have to be ten hours long.Hmmmmmmmmm actually I cant either. LOL Interesting.

A trilogy? I really would not have watched any of the three parts.Yea that was especially true for Dune. It was a huge complicated story. Really needed to be told in at least 3 parts to have a chance to get it right.

I only got to page 26 before I got rid of the book. Its like a 1000 pages. It had a dictionary in the back where you had to keep looking up terms. It was soooooooooooooooo complicated. Not a good book at all LOL
Correct! Quite a lousy book, in fact.
Yes, I agree, one of the worst ever, and most overrated ever.
That is the part that I don't understand. Some friends of mine who are intelligent people loved it. I just don't see why.
Yes, you uncovered a truth that the English professor didn't want to hear: Many in the humanities seek to obscure what they say instead of communicating it clearly.
I agree and it is very irritating.Exactly. Which is in large part the problem with not only with the humanities but with society in general.

I understand fully. Trees won't try to deceive you.Yup very very irritating. Which why I am liking widdle trees more and more.
