[kj] Book? Why, perhaps a film could be made that dramatized the old days?

[Brendan]

Tell me what is the theme of the first book according to this man your age?
So long ago that I read the series. I just remember being blown away in a
way similar to my first reading of Robert Anton Wilson - "this guy seems
smart about so many things I don't even know the faintest about".

 

Was it shared ancestor memory? Life / environment interaction? Struggle?
Religious manipulation?

 

Did he dwell in detail on how hot the girl who played Chani in the movie
was?

I swear by all the Dharma's that this is the truth:  As soon as a certain
man my age/went to Liverpool's Bluecoat school came back from his ordination
retreat into the Western Buddhist Order, the first thing he did was lead an
entire week long retreat ON THE THEME OF THE FIRST BOOK.  No distractions,
the odd day in total silence, meditating all the time and studying Frank
Herbert!

 

I was not on it.  I was with the Harkonnen's.  Heheheh.

Dune is such a class book, it HAS to be tried as a film again.

I wouldn't mind seeing David Lynch have another stab at it, this time
without selling out and fucking it up royally. Both of which he admits he
did.

PS: Is it just me or does Steven Wilson's Insurgentes seem very evocative of
Lynch at times?

Oh and apparently they are remaking Dune.
