We're on our way home from our extended "Star Wars" shore leave but have decided to spice up our lives with a little stopover on Arrakis, a world without which George's fictional universe might've looked VERY different. We're mostly talking the Lynch/Smithee 1980s "Dune" and Villeneuve 2021 "Dunc", with a few forays into Herbert's novel and brief glimpses towards Jodorowsky and the Sci-Fi miniseries. As 1980s "Dune" covers material "Dunc" has not gotten to, be warned there are potential spoilers for Denny V's eventual "part 2". if you're down for that, or already know where it's all going, join us as we discuss a classic tale of court intrigue, desert warfare, and absolutely horrifying butthole worms!
Also this week: being hot for Oscar, the Paul focus, and theater v. TV.
