Yes, tidy.

It certainly looks good. Hope it lives up to the hype

Cannot wait for Dune. Thank fuck it's that director doing it. Trailer looks awesome. The book is genius.

It's being split into 2 movies, innit?

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

When's it out? I never watch trailers for movies I'm certain I'm going to watch, so I'm a bit in the dark. Would like to re-read at least the first book before seeing it (and it would be a good opportunity to finally read the rest of them too!).

Saw (and met) Jodorowksy last year and, when asked, he said it would be "de la merde", i.e. a product of Hollywood rather than a consciousness transforming experience. But hey, if Jodo didn't say things like that, he wouldn't have made the art he has.

Aye first film is the first half of the book.

Out November. Id normally agree with what he said and he will probably be right as I can't see how you could get across in a film what occurs in the book but if any director can do it hopefully Villeneuve can.

Yeah. Have to say I wasn't a fan of his Bladerunner sequel at all though, precisely because it was too Hollywood, especially the fight scenes. The fight scenes of the original are these brutal, gritty things, not Wachowski twins choreographed slick shows that every action movie above a certain budget has these days.

True but the film did look fantastic. I know you don't watch trailers but I've watched the Dune one. Oh my.

[Carnage]

It looks amazing, can't wait. I'm one of the few people who likes Lynch's version but this one looks like a more serious take on it. Just a shame Oscar Isaac is involved, I can't fucking stand him.

Blade Runner 2049 is easily my favourite film of the last 10 years at least, every shot could be framed and hung on the wall.

[Pedrito]

I really like Lynch's version also. There's literally nothing like it out there. Used to freak me out as a kid  but the look and feel of the thing is so distinct. Really cannot wait to see this new one. Walked out of the cinema disgusted at the new Balde Runner, but absolutely fell in love with it the second time. Have watched a few times since and once you get over that initial Hollywood shock, it's just such a vision presented on screen. Gloriously beautiful and I really enjoyed the story, empathised with the characters etc. Has become a real favourite.

The trailer looks like a feast for the eyes. I reckon it will divide audiences, the story itself being so psychological a lot of the time. So we'll have to accept the fact that it's going to be somewhat like the new Balde Runner before stepping in the door, a mix of Hollywood and more subtle elements that I felt were handled well in BR.

[Ollkiller]

I don't think a trailer would be able to portray the psychological element to Dune. As it only the first half of the book I'm hoping it goes into those elements as it needs the big budget for the visuals but that story needs to fuck with people's heads. Haven't been this excited about a film in a long time.

[Pedrito]

I'm just trying to play it down but inside I'm as excited as a girl in her communion dress. Can't wait to see it.

Yeah I feel like that too. Absolutely stunning.

Borat 2 appears to be on the way, SBC linking to it on his social media now (but knowing him he could be fuelling bullshit rumours for a laugh).   No way he'd be able to top the original (not to mention not being recognised in all but the most redneck of areas) and there's mention of Borat being "undercover" to get around this obvious stumbling block.

Anyway - should be good for a few laughs (and squirming behind the couch)...
