Dune wins, no contest.
I’ve seen both already so thanks. All Marvel movies are basically the same and the new Dune is just a slower version of the old one. I saw some of it and it’s literally the same movie scene for scene but each scene has some unnecessary filler and is twice as long.
at this point there is no fight… Disney ruined Marvel (as they ruin every IP they buy), Dune is great… there is no contest here
No problem, I’ll just pirate both of them.
Stealing a marvel movie is still too expensive
What do you mean fight? I will gladly watch Dune part 3 multiple times before I watch Marvel again.
Haven’t watched an entire marvel movie since endgame.
I don’t particularly hate or dislike them but I don’t care to watch them.
They’ve made movies since endgame!?
Indeed, and some of them (according to others) have been quite good.
I have seen bits and pieces of like 4 or 5 of them but I honestly couldn’t say which ones except black panther. They weren’t bad, they just couldn’t hold my interest and I stopped watching.
Sweet.
Both will, of course, need to compete with the one of the Captain Americas, a couple of Marx Brothers movies, and a that one backwards one (Tenant) that I’m excited for, but haven’t found time to see, yet.
I didn’t make the call to enshitify streaming services, or run 37 minutes of ads before every feature film, but it definitely changed how I enjoy movies.
Anyway. I bet I will get around to seeing Dune and Doom. I might even watch them during a holiday.
White messiah movie vs white messiah movie
Dune is not a white savior story though, and neither is Dune Messiah (which Frank Herbert wrote in part to make that message as clear as possible). While Paul is trying to be a savior figure, he’s using everyone for his own ends the entire time. The top comment on this wonderful video says it best:
Dune’s entire historical narrative has always been, “Beware of the Tyrant wrapped in Savior clothing.”
Dune isn’t exactly a messiah movie, although it’s literally based on the book Dune Messiah.
The white man comes to the brown people to be their God. It’s literally a white messiah book/movie.
Wow, a true Lemmy wooosh moment. I think you missed the point of, well, the movie
I mean, the whole thing is meant to be a cautionary tale rather than a feel good movie. It’s an anti white messiah movie. But yeah I guess technically it is about a white messiah, so you’re not wrong, but real weird to refer to it that way
spaniards being considered white
see, progress does happen

Calling it first.
After Barbenheimer, Avengers: Dunesday.
Oh it’s no secret, studios saw the cultural phenomenon of barbenheimer and now try to manufacture it for profit. They did the same with wicked last year with some other flop of a movie. They’re actively trying to make it happen again, trying to seem young and hip.
That’s so fetch
Won’t be much of a fight tbh
Yay, more movies based on existing IP that I couldn’t give a shit about. Woo.
The choice will be more supercape shit or more vainglorious Dune shit.
Hard pass on both.
Like I can’t see both? 🤷♂️
No! Well, yeah, sure… but secretly, on the surface one must maintain the petty clickbait controversy facade, like Blur vs Oasis back in the 90s. Or more recently, In ‘n’ Out vs Five Guys.
Or in case of yo momma, Five Guys, In ‘n’ Out.
The only manufactured controversy I’ve seen with the last two is shit that claims Five Guys is good.
In-N-Out is vastly superior, saying that as a dirty West Coast-ian. I may be biased, but I’m also right /s
In-N-Out is cheaper and more consistent than literally every other fast food in the country.
I’m loving the dune movies so far and I can’t wait to watch part three.
They’re my favourite movies since LOTR and absolute fucking masterpieces of cinema imo.
They’re another example of “this shit is unfilmable” being turned into amazing films.
I like the casting of Anya Taylor Joy to play Paul’s sister too because she’s a weird looking fucking alien person and is perfect for the role of psycho fetal hallucinogenic syndrome person.
psycho fetal hallucinogenic syndrome
Fucking lol.
given my excitement about modern media. I very much doubt it.
