GanrokhDune Part Two Release Date Delayed to March 15th, 2024
MapleWhat is it with movies releasing in two parts nowadays? Saw the same thing with Across the Spiderverse, and I guess the same thing happened to Ninja Turtles, but I haven’t watched that one so I might be wrong. Fast X too from what I hear.
It’s an adaptation of a book. And there’s a lot of stuff going on in that first book. Most people are not up for a 5 hour movie.
Lynch did it in one film.
N1cknamed…and it sucked
Sure! That version from 1984 now also occupies a comfortable spot with a 6.3/10 rating according to IMDB, while the 2021 movie is longer in runtime and only tackles half of the book, while enjoying a 8.0/10 rating…
So sure, you could have condensed the whole book into a single movie with the same runtime… But it does come at a cost when the books have so much world building to do.
I don’t think Lynch would agree.
The adaptation so bad the director refused to even out his name on it.
