On this month's WLM, the guys are talking about one of the absolute best cinematic spectacles from last year, Denis Villeneuve's Dune! How incredible is the production design all over this thing? Does Paul have the hots for his mom? How absolutely boss is this score? And who among us wouldn't take that Harkonnen oil dip? PLUS: Duncan Idaho has a wild time at his sister's wedding! 

Dune stars Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Stellan Skarsgård, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Sharon Duncan-Brewster, Chang Chen, Dave Bautista, David Dastmalchian, Charlotte Rampling, and Babs Olusanmokun; directed by Denis Villeneuve.Thanks so much for supporting We Hate Movies on Patreon!

I guess I have to watch it again or read the book or something. I didn't enjoy it as much as I was hoping to. It also doesn't help that the theatre I saw it in was having projector issues and the sand worm and several parts of the desert scenes were imperceivable due to the dimness of the projection. And if Paul doesn't have the hots for his mom, I know I do.

Man! I've been waiting for this one! Now look, it's ok to NOT like a movie, but I really dug this like a Shai-Hulud. A slow burn but one of the few movies in the last few years that I took seriously. Can't wait to hear this one!

Subjectivity

Like the original, I just couldn't get through it. Probably for the same reasons. Lots of sitting around talking about things that don't make sense, and not even in a fun way.

Subjectivity

Seriously, like a movie being fun is a bad thing. At least things actually happen in Marvel movies. I'm not checking the time every couple minutes like I did with this.

Paul

“Dark City” for WLM—yes, yes, yes!

Smaug

This movie ruled my ass. I read Dune for the first time when I was 11, Villaneuve does such a great job with scifi

Trinity Dahmus

Loved this episode! Can’t wait for the follow up in 2 years!

Colby latham

I have been waiting for this remake for a long time even though I have a love of the 1984 version. Was so glad to hear this was your WLM of 2021, the mild annoyance of my wife can attest to that lol.

Tim Batson

Easily one of the best films of 2021.

MANTE IV

When I’m emperor, operating a subwoofer in multi-family dwellings will be a capital offense. Watch your ass, Jupin!

WarOfTheBees

I'm just gonna put this out there: I'm in the throes of omicron, vaxxed and boosted, high as fuck...and I still got it and it is FUCKING me up. But...I'm not in a hospital because the vaccines FUCKING WORK

Jade Buchmyer

For a little Mamoa action fix, Try Badlands w/ Keanu. Fun flick.

Nora Dallaire

Hell yeah!! My family caught it too, because my youngest goes to a special needs school and can't do at-home learning, so we knew we'd be at risk... but no complications from my asthma, which I'm attributing to the vacciiiiine!

WarOfTheBees

The only thing keeping me from being overly pissed off is that I'm not in the hospital, but these stomach cramps are brutal, it's like being gutshot

Smaug

To the reddits!

Smaug

Just like those Marvel movies...

Smaug

I'm not anti-MCU, I've seen all of the movies up to and including Shang Chi and liked a good pile of them, but I do feel that the points the WHM guys make are valid and a necessary criticism in the field. The MCU movies are the same Disney packaged, market-tested-to-hell product over and over and they've all started to feel interchangeable and uncreative. Nothing wrong with them, but it's boring cinema that has worn out its welcome

Smaug

My dude...of course you can, and I can rib you about it

Jules O'D

I simply cannot believe that they used that take of Brolin saying ‘They’re BRRUUUtal’. It’s well beyond the register of the rest of that conversation. a truly powerful acting choice.

Steven Cookson

We need people like you protecting the good name of Disney on every corner of the internet. How dare anyone say anything negative about Disney. Thank you for your service.

Steven Cookson

I'm not much of Star Wars guy, but I came out of this film with the opinion that Lucas ate Herbert's breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea, supper and had room for snacks, and gobbled all the way to the bank. Fair play, it worked, but the neck of him, honestly.

Winson Paine

Finally listening to this, comin in HOT since I kinda hated Dune when I was watching it and loved Don't Look Up, gonna be a top ep

Josan

As someone that kinda loves the six Herbert Dune novels I found this movie to be sterile and devoid of most of the magic that the Dune universe has. Obviously that is just my opinion, its okey to like a movie :P Whoever listening to the episode there is a point where Cabin says "oh you should hear what Herbert said about women", and I'm curious to know what is he refering to, because I've never heard anything about Herbert making any statement of the sorts.

B Rob

I was listening to this score the other day, hope y’all give Zimmer his props.

Winson Paine

I guess the women in the novel do have a multigenerational plan of eugenics and genocide to eventually breed a superman who more or less ruins the whole galaxy?

Josan

Yeah well that is a plot of the saga, but what he said was like Frank Herbert said something personally in an interview of something

Dustin Martin

Just want to say that "you know who failed the Gom Jabbar....Jon Benet Ramsey." made me laugh so hard I almost wrecked my car.

DMAC

Denis Villeneuve continues to make the best looking films and also doing as much possible to build the world, the characters, and doing so without it becoming too much or bad. Damn was it a beautiful film and a great story. I wish they would be Blade Runner 2049 now.

Matt

I think Paul does have the hots for his mom, but to be fair, if my mom looked like Rebecca Ferguson I would probably have the hots for her too.

Brian Cardin

The jab at Tim Hortons is valid. TH sucks hard.
