Lego -- Dune -- These Were Really, Really Cool In The Movie

Locator: 46674DUNE.

Movies:

  • lots of thoughts on Dune: Part 2; saw it last night; can't decide what to say about it
    • Washington Post; over at RogerEbert.com
    • quick notes:   
      • huge for Dune fans; not my kind of movie
      • while watching, flashed across my mind: Star Wars, Apocalypse Now -- both so much better than Dune
      • while watching, flashed across my mind: Bloom's The Western Canon, the Bible, Shakespeare plays;
      • first Star War movies much better; 
      • minimal character development in Dune; can't warm-up / connect with Dune characters
      • story line: dorky; not original at all
      • too many scenes too dark (as in lighting, not story line)
      • dialogue: not developed
      • Christopher Walken: big disappointment; doesn't seem to fit; review here;
  • $11.37 with tax; about the price of monthly subscription to Amazon Prime 

LEGO licensing rights with several movie franchises. Now we can add Dune.


And, no, I don't / won't be collecting sets from this franchise.
