Haha, oops. Looks like I missed the five star memo again! Classic blunder on my part! Glad y'all are loving it though!

I guess I simply just don't get it. Everything is magnificently done. I'd even argue that it's an improvement over the first installment! The big, and I mean big, problem for me is that I don't really care. There's really not enough there to entice me. This has been the series that has made me wonder, oh god am I one of those pretentious ass people who say they can't get into anything that isn't plausibly real? I don't think that's the case, but there's just an emotional aspect here, that should be super strong in an epic like Dune, that I find very lacking.

It's a visual spectacle with powerhouse performances and editing choices that should be studied for years to come, but there is truly something about it that rings hollow to me, and I can't ignore that.

Still clears everything so far this year tho lol.
