Dune

[Perndog]

The world needn't be cheery, but I thought it certainly could have been brighter - the visual style (along with the effects) was the thing that most turned me off about that movie, aside from the discrepancies. It's been too long since I read the book to list the ones I saw, but what irritated the hell out of me was that whole "weirding module" thing, weapons using sound and all that junk. They totally invented that for the movie, and it didn't make any sense. The "weirding way of battle" referred to in the book referred to physical combat, didn't it? And it only had anything to do with Paul gaining respect among the Fremen, it wasn't the big thing they went on about in the movie.
