Oh wow look, another totally organic cultural phenomenon that is definitely not munfactured corporate hype!

I can't wait for all the Dunecore aesthetic TikToks that will mysteriously disappear after the marketing period ends!

I will never forgive them for what they did to stilgar.

They made him into a simp! He's not supposed to be a simp YET it's supposed to be a stark contrast when we see him again after being the emperors chief aid for like 15 years, THATS when he's a simp but noooooooooooooooooooo

the second movie was supposed to be psychedelic and weird and they were supposed to hang out in warm comfy caves that smell strongly of farts and sweat, but noooo tabr is a modernist cathedral somehow, and spice visions is just someone telling you stuff?

They fucking ruined Jessica's spice agony! It was my favorite scene from the first book and they fucking blew it, some blue smoke swirls for like 30 seconds and that's it!!!

THATS THE BEST YOU GOT?!

Yeah when Paul trips on spice in the cave before fighting Jamis, the book goes full on psychedelic to try and help the reader visualize how it feels to see the future
