Follow Jason as he walks-and-talks (he can do both! Mostly at the same time!) en route to his first trip to an actual movie theater in almost 18 months to see Denis Villenueve's epic adaptation of Frank Herbert's epic science-fiction classic 'Dune'. And then we pause recording and pick it up again right after Jason is back from the screening.
This movie is one I (i switched tenses!) have been looking forward to ever since it was announced as Villenueve's follow-up to 'Blade Runner 2049', which is one of my very favorite films. And 'Dune' as a movie is fraught for fans of the novel because although the David Lynch adaptation of the 1980's has some fans and got some things right...it bit off the whole novel and that proved just far too much content to try and stuff into a feature film. Denis' film tackles the first half of the novel, and we'll discuss in this episode whether that was a good or bad idea, get into the casting, the music of both Blade Runner 2049 and Dune, the epic sound design of Villenueve films and much more.
