    Right there with you my expectations are high. But I am ignoring it till it gets closer.

    Same. It looks to have a lot of potential and I'm hoping that potential isn't squandered.

    Way to make sure you feel let down no matter how good it ends up being.

    Not really, I got hyped for TFA and wasn't dissapointed, same for Blade Runner 2049. Though on TFA I got annoyed with the ANH similarities. I might keep them a little low.

    I’m doing my best to keep my hopes lowwwwwww and my mind open. So much of Dune just won’t lend itself to film.

    There are some contradictions that dune will release only in theaters or same day. I hope they do release it only in theaters. A premiere at Venice will only help the film.

    Prime1 Studio got the Dune license. I hope we get a statue of the Shai Hulud, one thing that dissapoints me is that we still didn't see any Sardaukar or Ornithopter merch.

    He isn't supposed to, his personality should be creepy. And smart. Lynch made him an ugly joke.

    It should be up to every individual how they want to experience it. Them releasing it digitally doesn't stop you from going to the theater.

    Like they point out in the article, simultaneous release did not hurt Kong vs Godzilla one bit.
