December 14, 1984. Exactly 40 years ago, David Lynch's 'Dune' hit theaters for the first time. (lemmy.world)

I've thoroughly enjoyed every adaptation of Dune that I've seen, which I guess is only 3: the David Lynch one, the Villeneuve one, and the Syfy channel one,.which never seems to be mentioned. I've been meaning to watch the documentary about the crazytown Jodorowsky version that never happened; heard it was good.

My only sadness is that James McAvoy didn't go full worm in the Syfy shows second season. Instead he just keeps wandering around shirtless with some paint and schmutz on his arm like Sting with a weird skin rash.

I found thr Syfy channel version on DVD, both sets, at a thrift store for like four bucks. It really is pretty good.
