Yep. I think the only way I'll ever see it done right is if I do it myself. And that's not going to happen.
Such a wasted opportunity. You had the right director, a great cast (except for Walken, who was both miscast and awful), all the benefits of modern special effects and CGI done to perfection, and they pissed it all away playing games with the story. It just got progressively worse. By the end, it's like they just threw everything in a blender with the lid off, hit puree, scraped the splattered chunks off the walls and pieced them together randomly. So much screen time wasted on the whole ridiculous Chani changes that could have gone into properly developing the story. ****. They reduced both her and Jessica to vicious, scheming ****s. I guess the worst thing a woman can do is quietly and faithfully support a man she loves.
****ing woke Hollywood can rot in the deepest depths of hell. Today may well have been the last time I ever set foot inside a movie theater. They just don't make films for me anymore.
