Dune (2021) with Ricky Carroll

The Cinema Bums are joined by Ricky Carroll to discuss Denis Villeneuve's most recent film, the brand-new adaptation of Frank Herbert's classic novel Dune! The vile House Harkonnen did everything in their power to stop the recording of this episode, so it was ultimately done on our phones instead of our top-tier set-up. We apologize for the audio quality falling below our usual high standards, but take a moment for your ears to adjust and you will find that the fun quality is even higher than usual on this episode. Our trio breaks down the history of Dune and its many adaptations - and how Denis's version compares to all the rest! There is also a spoiler-filled section discussing the possibilities for Dune: Part Two, so skip from 48:08 to 53:44 if you haven't read the book. Tune in to hear Wade give his final Dune Book Report, Emmet have to talk about spiders once again, and Ricky teach us an important new mantra about dealing with hype. Thank you for listening, and please enjoy!
