@aescling i haven’t

and musicals unfortunately i find mostly unimpressive from a musical perspective; it is rare to find one which is compositionally interesting in addition to having good lyrics

maybe i just don’t watch enough musicals though

@witchfynder_finder goblin (generic) but not goblin (specific)

@witchfynder_finder i mean… R2‐D2…

@witchfynder_finder i also love fantasy a lot more than sci‐fi lol so i mean there’s bias in this room :P

@witchfynder_finder like Back On This Point but i think it’s beautifully ironic that they took Dune, a book with a reputation for being Extremely Hard Sci‐fi, and turned it into this

and they did it without really compromising any of the sci‐fi elements either

@witchfynder_finder i was more like “that’s what i wish sci‐fi would be” tbh

@witchfynder_finder people who think dune is too slow are the same people who didn't cry at the end of totoro

@witchfynder_finder i love the pacing; i know not everyone likes it but every single piece is saying something directly relevant to the film and its journey

fuck action filler which is just in there to make the movie seem “fast”

@witchfynder_finder yeah i think it would have been a much worse movie if it had obsessed itself with lore

@witchfynder_finder my dad was also like “they didn't explain the navigators!” and i was like “nope they told you exactly enough information to understand what spice is and why it’s important and thank god”

@witchfynder_finder i meant scientifically; they did a very good job of demonstrating what it is and does

you don't need to know the science behind it because you can literally see it happening

@witchfynder_finder my dad was like “they didn't explain the voice!” and i was like “dude they didn't NEED to explain the voice”
