Fan of the book here. I think Villeneuve, along with Peter Jackson, is one of the very few filmmakers to ultimately improve upon the source material. https://t.co/Re58sONOfU— Richard Newby - New Account (@NewbyRichard3) March 2, 2024

#DunePart2 Chani Book ChaniZendaya was magnificent. But, I wish Denis had included the storyline of baby Leto, adding more emotional depth. It would have been even more devastating if Chani had become pregnant with their first child only to lose him in the Sardaukar attack. pic.twitter.com/ITbFXdczjs— nina (@21Nina_) March 1, 2024

Yeah, Dennis made it more crystal clear than in Herbert’s own book that this is not a white savior trope. At least not anything like Dances With Wolves. It’s more like real life, where white colonizers felt it was their burden to civilize Indigenous people, that lead to genocides— House of Fire and Blood (@HouseofFireand2) March 1, 2024

The AI-generated "script" actors were given for the Glasgow Wonka event is.. something. Aside from featuring staging and effects that would be impressive for a moderately-sized West End spectacular, its stage directions also dictate precisely how delighted the audience will be. pic.twitter.com/x9smLlmCnW— The author, Séamas O'Reilly (@shockproofbeats) February 28, 2024

that villeneuve post really revealed the dividing line between those on here who consider cinema to be a visual medium capable of creating ecstatic experience and those who merely think of cinema as a shabby extension of theatre and literature.— coмrade_yυι (@Comrade_Yui) February 27, 2024

Wikipedia has honest to god some of the worst source work I’ve ever seen on virtually all its pages that are primarily historical/political rather than scientific/mathematic. https://t.co/SJxT2enRur— Portrait of the Postman Joseph Roulin (@realerjoetalley) February 19, 2024

i’m in a film studies class this semester on documentaries related to genocides and with every reading we read i feel like i’m getting closer to being able to fully articulate the thoughts i’ve been having about the Internet’s role at this current moment, and how it diffuses— yoona (@TabiOrNotTabi) February 9, 2024

Exceptionally easy answer here. Until very recently, Jewish people were largely ostracized from the conventional economies of Europe. They had to seek other avenues, like moneylending, which was illegal for Christians, academia, performing arts, and highly mobile trades. https://t.co/cXp0isQop7— khanate (@polishXcellence) February 8, 2024

Turns out immigrants aren’t “takers” after all - they’re givers to the US economy and essential to a sustainable future, especially if we want elder generations to age with dignity. https://t.co/iv6B6EQAdI— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) February 7, 2024
