The last three to six months of the movie was done on Zoom, and this whole sequence was done digitally. Every single character. It's all composed in one big shot. That was the last task, and it was a real head-scratcher. But it was brilliant. It worked really well. In fact, one of my friends was, like, “Oh, I thought that was all acted on the stage.” And I'm like, well, I've done my job okay then.

- That scene is totally believable until Paul's visor comes up and you can see his face. It didn't look bad on big screen but rewatching at home it's noticeable.thumb_screws
- After a re-watch I love this movie even more.thumb_screws
- it looked in the trailer already llike sfx. but badly done ..neverscared
- yeah those few moments look like he is in a zoom meeting :D but hey, the rest is awesome, isn't?:)sted
- the only part of the movie that looked fakehotroddy
- These types of scenes never 'feel' real. It's all too perfectly choreographed, too fast. Need to watch again.formed

I finally got around to watching Dune...I was pleasantly surprised how much that I enjoyed it. I couldn't believe that the movie was 2.5 hours long, it went by quick.
- I haven't seen it yet but loved the books. My wife hates SciFi so need a few hours spare to watch on my lonesomesausages
- @sausages sell it as a period drama in space. That's how i got my partner to watch it with me.thumb_screws

Saw it yesterday on the big screen (it's only just opened here in prison). Definitely one for the cinema not the sofa. It looks spectacular. One of the best bits of world-building in ages and mum steals the show. Loved it.
And only for those familiar with '80s UK TV...
Hard to believe but my mate's wife was completely unfamiliar with the entire thing, new film, old film, book - everything. For quite a while we had her convinced we were off to see the light-hearted origin story of June, part two will be Terry's.
- Lol. I'd watch Terry in Dune.Fax_Benson

- Caught it yesterday too. Im fresh from a re read and they have done a cracking a job of translating to screen.thumb_screws

It's very faithful to the book, as it should be.

just realized a line in fatboy slim's weapon of choice was referencing dune....
"Walk without rhythm
And it won't attract the worm"am i the only one who just figured this out?
- Yes.i_monk

to the lyrics. also sings of getting old :Dsted - well i've never read the book or finished the other dune movie...
so when i was at that part of the movie i just went OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.pango - Pink Floyd always referenced worms...not that uncommon when you think about itformed

went along to do my duty, not expecting much
was totally blown away, loved every second of it.
would have sat thru another 2.5 hrs of pt2 there and then.
no big fan of the book (tho i have read it) but it seemed in keeping asfar as i can remember (not much)
the real problem is that there's so much stuff that needs explaining that it's hard to find an intuitive way of doing it.
lynch used internal dialogue, villeneuve has the characters explain it to each other in a clunky way. not too sure what the answer is.

- The people of the cities and towns stain their eyes to fight the sun, unlike the Fremen who get blue eyes from all the spice in their environment.zarkonite
