Dune Review

Postedon October - 14 - 2009

Alternate Episode Title:Extreme Water Mingling!

A flop back during its theatrical release in ’84, Dune has since found its fair share of fans and become a bit of a sci-fi cult classic. I know it definitely had a big effect on me back when I was a kid. The visuals and the world within this movie have always stayed with me. I’ve always wondered how David Lynch’s career would have turned out if Dune had been a financial success at the box office.

One thing that has always blown me away about this film is the attention to detail. The sets, costumes, machinery, weapons, vehicles, and sound design are all incredibly unique and interesting. All of it really lends a sense of mystique and a strong aura of the exotic.  Some of casting choices are truly inspired and I found most of the performances to be solid and memorable. It’s too bad we will probably never be treated to an actual director’s cut of this film. One can only imagine how epic that would have been.

If you’re ready to take up the Fremen cause and ride into battle on a giant sandworm then let The Hard Cast supply you with the best thumpers and don’t forget about the water of life, the ultimate energy drink in the known universe!
