It's time to Spice up your life!

Arrakis might look like a dead planet on the surface but it's swimming in sweet sweet stimulants. You don't need to have visions of the future to know we're talking about Dune. It's a space opera that blends a trippy college bender with the fun of LARP'ing. Thankfully in neither book or movie you won't smell a sietch.

Kelly struggled with her stillsuit but Frank Herbert lent her the mentat advice she needed to hear... it just needed to be said in a Bene Gesserit voice. The OG science fiction novel brought the stars to earth and established a cult following that continues to worship its prolific world-building. Sure, your mind might hurt a bit... and you'll have to read the series backwards and forwards to begin to understand what the heck is happening...but that's the fun of being a messiah.

Denis Villeneuve showed Jimmy a whole new world- without the Guild cost. This sweeping & visually stunning film infuses the universe with the intent and intelligence it was written as. Polarizing pod favorite Timothee Chalamet delivers a Paul Atreides worth following into... a holy war? We'll have to get back to you on that one. Regardless, you'll drink up these epic performances. The movie found the way to show and tell complicated material and still entertain its audience. Explosions help the exposition go down. The film is like a ride of a sand worm... a gritty acid trip.

So hop in the ornithopter and get that sand-walk right: It's time to find the golden path between book and movie.
