Well hot damn, is there anything cooler than a sandworm? Cam and Maggie finally saw Denis Villeneuve's Dune, and they are just head over heels for the world of Arrakis. There's so much to talk about – that rare feeling of falling in love with a brand new franchise, the similarities / influences / comparisons to Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings – and a whole section where we unpack the moments and characters in Dune that George Lucas spun out to create Star Wars. You know there's nothing we love more than adaptation, and this movie stands on the shoulders of many giants (Cam gets to talk about Shakespeare again). We work through the many titanic themes explored in this allegorical odyssey (can you tell I'm excited?) and the equal importance of Herbert's original mythology in this grand storytelling smoothie. We also discuss Tolkien's strong opinion about Dune and try to understand what might have annoyed him about sweet little Paul. Wow – what a movie! See it on the biggest screen you can find.
