    One must say what one likes, but the old Dune really is rather better, isn?t it?

    Yes.

    It was like Lynch watched Fellini's Satyricon just before filming, and
    really, really liked it.


    Kyle MacLachlan possesses that noble, aristocratic air which the new actor, decent as he is, simply lacks.

    I always though that MacLaughlin looked like a younger version of
    Napoleon Solo.

    Secondly, and far more importantly, there?s none of that ghastly vulgar feminism in the old Dune. I mean do you realise some brown wan actually slapped Paul Atreides? And she?s meant to be an atheist within her own community totally disrespecting male, and saviour figure.

    How perfectly absurd.


    Other castings are okayish? Great Walken, the gay guy from James bond, hot Rebecca Ferguson, the Swedish guy from Andor...good cast actually.
