Frank Herbert's landmark science fiction novel has become more culturally central thanks to the recent blockbuster films by Denis Villeneuve adapting the story. But as we make our way through our series on the late David Lynch, we had to stop by Arrakis and grapple with his much-maligned adaptation from 1984. Featuring a massive budget (which came with lots of production demands as well), a star-studded cast, and classic 1980s sets and effects, Dune did everything it could to capture an epic space-opera vibe.We discuss how successful or not it was alongside friend of the show Julie Ahern and new friend of the show Nicole Amato. This is a hearty, fun, thoughtful conversation that also wrestles with Dune's unique themes subverting our prominent concepts of destiny and heroism.

Producer Dan Levine recalls the making of 2016's iconic Arrival. From the moment he read Ted Chiang's Story of Your Life, Dan knew he had to find a way to bring it to the screen. Director Denis Villeneuve, an incredible talent but still relatively unknown, was the perfect choice. Producers had to wait until Denis wrapped Sicario, but things moved quickly once Amy Adams came on board and suggested Jeremy Renner as her co-star. Production went smoothly, although the material presented endless challenges for Denis and the producers. The scariest moment was after the finished film was screened for the studio - they did not like it and wanted rewrites and a reshoot to change the ending. Dan knew the film worked and fought for the ending that garnered 8 Oscar nominations. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Juanma González analiza los estrenos de la semana: Blancanieves, Los Aitas y Adolescencia. ¡No te lo pierdas! En el programa Es la Mañana de Fin de Semana de esRadio, Juanma González ha comentado los estrenos más esperados de esta semana."Blancanieves" El nuevo remake de Disney mezcla imagen real y digital "para imitar la textura de una película de dibujos", según González, quien ha destacado que el clásico de la princesa Disney "se percibe como un cuento más anticuado, pertenece a otra época, la película que definió los clásicos animados de Disney". Por lo tanto, para actualizar la nueva versión, se han tomado algunas decisiones, lo cual es "comprensible e injusto", según González. Aunque cabe mencionar que la película preserva ciertos elementos originales, como los temas musicales, la presentación de los enanitos, Blancanieves cantando y limpiando la casa, etc. Además, la cinta está llena de polémica: una actriz latina, Rachel Zegler, interpreta a Blancanieves, los enanos son digitales a excepción de uno, Gal Gadot es israelí, etc. Pese a ello, González ha dicho: "Me ha parecido amena, aunque la película sufre de tratar de no molestar a nadie". Blancanieves dura aproximadamente una hora y media, lo cual "tiene una sensación de ritmo que favorece a la historia", según González, quien ha continuado diciendo que "le han dado un toque Frozen". Finalmente, González ha indicado: "No me parece de los mejores remakes de Disney, aunque las películas de Disney pueden tener un arranque flojo, pero pueden perdurar"."Los aitas" Película española dirigida por Borja Cobeaga —director de la serie de Amazon Prime Su Majestad y guionista de Ocho apellidos vascos— y protagonizada por Quim Gutiérrez y Juan Diego Botto. Los Aitas transcurre en los años 80, apela a la nostalgia y cuenta la historia de un equipo infantil de gimnasia rítmica que tiene una competición en Berlín. Ante la imposibilidad de que las madres acompañen a las hijas, los padres deberán asumir la tarea a pesar de no estar muy interesados ni en sus hijas ni en el viaje Por su parte, González ha explicado que la película "se burla de los personajes, pero los trata con mucho cariño", además de que "trata de tener una vertiente dramática" que apele más a la emoción, aunque "es demasiado ligera"."Adolescencia" y Par Impar Serie de cuatro capítulos en Netflix que trata de la detención de un niño de 13 años acusado de matar a su compañera de clase. Cada capítulo está grabado en un plano secuencia y trata temas como el acoso escolar y la maldad humana. González ha resumido la serie con el siguiente concepto: "Este niño, ¿ha nacido o se ha criado psicópata? Hay personas que nacen sin sentimientos". Por otro lado, el nuevo episodio de Par Impar, junto a Dani Palacios, habla de la película Sicario de Denis Villeneuve.

En compañía de los chicos de Cine Actual comentamos Sicario, la película de Denis Villeneuve con Benicio del Toro. En Par Impar llamamos a los chicos del podcast Cine Actual (Francisco Javier Santiago, Daniel Rengel y Samuel Úbeda) para comentar Sicario, la ya mítica película de Denis Villeneuve con Emily Blunt y Benicio del Toro que retrata el mundo del narcotráfico en México y la frontera con EEUU. En la zona fronteriza entre Estados Unidos y México, la joven agente del FBI Kate Macer (Emily Blunt) es reclutada en medio de una iniciativa secreta del Gobierno para luchar contra el tráfico de drogas. Bajo el mando de Matt Graver (Josh Brolin), un frío miembro de las fuerzas gubernamentales, y de Alejandro (Benicio del Toro), un enigmático asesor, el equipo emprende una misión que lleva a la mujer a cuestionarse sus convicciones sobre la guerra contra los narcos y los límites de la ley. La película de Denis Villeneuve, que ahora ha alcanzado la gloria definitiva con Dune y su secuela, está escrita por el muy productivo Taylor Sheridan, que posteriormente presentaría la serie Yellowstone y todas sus secuelas y precuelas, y que aquí ensaya algunos de sus registros principales en una película tensa y excelentemente rodada por el director de fotografía Roger Deakins.

The relentlessly prolific Jason Carman is making the films our culture needs: optimistic, inspiring and positioned at the frontiers of modern tech and science. In under two years, he has shipped more than 70 high-quality mini-documentaries exploring the startups shaping the future, racking up over 130,000 YouTube subscribers along the way. His new venture, Story Company, premiered “New Space”, its 100+ minute-long exploration of the modern space industry, to a packed San Francisco theater this year. Story Company has multiple projects in the pipeline, including a full-length sci-fi feature. Ultimately, he intends to create a new generation of sci-fi films: a Star Wars for the 21st century. I love Jason's ambition, drive and enthusiasm (not to mention his filmmaking chops), which is why we awarded him a $100k O'Shaughnessy Fellowship last year. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

This week sees the release of Hans Zimmer And Friends: Diamond In The Desert, a concert film like no other, which captures the great Hans Zimmer and his band in full flow in Dubai, and also intersperses a number of revealing interviews Zimmer conducted with the likes of Christopher Nolan, Zendaya, Billie Eilish, Pharrell Williams, Denis Villeneuve, Johnny Marr, and Timothee Chalamet. It's quite the achievement, and in this Empire Podcast Interview Special, Chris Hewitt talks to Zimmer and the film's director, Paul Dugdale, about how they pulled it off, hanging with the Belgian Royal Family, crafting the ultimate set list, and, of course, Going For Gold. The heat is on, the time is right, it's time for you to play this pod. Enjoy.

Isaac, Juzo, and Cameron return to discuss David Lynch's Dune (1984), an ambitious ane infamous adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi epic. Starring Kyle MacLachlan as Paul Atreides, the film blends interesting visuals with Lynch's signature style, making it a perplexing and divisive entry in the Dune legacy. We compare Lynch's take to Denis Villeneuve's Dune: Part One (2021) and Dune: Part Two (2024), exploring how each filmmaker approaches Herbert's expansive universe.

Now that Adrien Brody has finally wrapped up his acceptance speech, we can bring you Episode 59 of Vintage Sand. And since it's March, and the Oscars just passed, we're right on time with our annual year-end review, which we call 2024: The Year of the Brutal. As seems to be the case over the last few years, we came away from the year in film with mixed feelings. The interesting thing is that we did not seem to agree on any of the major films of the year. Mike and I liked "Anora" a lot, and John did not. We also both liked "Emilia Pérez", which John actively disliked. John and I liked Garland's "Civil War", which Mike didn't like at all. John liked "The Brutalist", and Mike and I were underwhelmed. I was alone in loving both "Nosferatu" and "The Substance". Mike and John liked "Conclave" and "A Complete Unknown", both of which I found kind of conventional despite outstanding performances. And so on. It makes it difficult to come to a consensus on the year, but it makes, as you will hear, for an excellent episode; after all, what could be more boring than when the three of us agree? As for the Oscars themselves, we were pleasantly surprised at how good Conan was, and pleasantly not surprised how good the opening number from "Wicked" was. We were relieved at the absence of Malala vs. Cocaine Bear audience schtick (minus Adam Sandler), surprised at the politics-free nature of the evening, appalled at the James Bond “tribute”, amazed at how young Mick Jagger looks, and, as ever, disappointed in the In Memoriam section. And while we appreciated the Gene Hackman and Quincy Jones tributes, we were shocked that nothing special was done for David Lynch (something we plan to remedy in our next episode). Good on Sean Baker for winning four statuettes for "Anora", yet continuing puzzlement as to why Denis Villeneuve, among the greatest world-builders currently directing, can't seem to get nominated for films that all seem to get nominated for Best Picture. In considering our eternal question of which of these films will be watched by anyone in 25 years, let alone show up the Sight and Sound poll in 2032, I can only imagine that "Anora" and "Nosferatu", in the contexts of their respective directors' careers, might make the cut. It seems slightly possible that the Dylan film, "Conclave" and "The Brutalist" might have some legs as well, but it's less likely. For me, 2024 will always stand out as the year featuring women in films that were social commentaries in the context of the horror genre ("The Substance", "Maxxxine", and "Blink Twice" being among the best examples). It suggests that a kind of brutality, often directed at women though not exclusively, has crept into American film, as it seems to have done in American life itself. So we urge you, intrepid listeners, to support the arts and humanities, go to movies in theaters, and keep fighting the good fight.

On this episode of Unsupervised Learning, Razib talks to Titus Techera, a Romanian living in Budapest, but commenting extensively on American and European culture. He is the Executive Director of the American Cinema Foundation, International Coordinator of the National Conservatism Conference and is a primary contributor to the Substack PostModernConservative. Techera also hosts a podcast for the American Cinema Foundation. Razib first talks to Techera about the 2024 Romanian presidential election that was overturned by the courts over accusations of Russian interference. Techera explains the social and cultural context of the candidate initially declared victorious against a backdrop of Romanian society's typical stock characters. Techera also discusses the tension between having a nation-state with a distinctive character and becoming part of the broader EU project that is attempting to forge unity across 27 countries. He then addresses what a “Postmodern Conservative” is in the context of the arts. Perhaps most importantly, PostModern Conservatives take the 20th century and the modernist period seriously; they are not simply reactionaries who want to return to the 19th century. Conservatives who value the arts and culture cannot simply roll the tape back; they have to engage with what has come before. Razib and Techera also consider how inferences from the sciences, like the rejection of the “blank slate,” might influence the arts. They also discuss their disagreements about the latest Dune films, Techera prefers David Lynch's attempt to adapt the book in 1984 to Denis Villeneuve's 2021 version.

On the sixty-sixth episode of The Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max run through all categories for the 97th Academy Awards with their picks and predictions for how the night might go. The episode includes a heated debate about the use of AI in film, a shoutout to longtime Cinematic Odyssey listener Bowen Yang, and the most predictable Best Picture choice coming from the both of them. They also discuss snubs, techno, and Denis Villeneuve, in a semi-thorough awards preparation. 

Episode 372: Dune Prophecy   What happens when you take a blockbuster movie and make an HBO Max series set 1200 years before said movie? You get Dune Prophecy, a show seemingly for no one.

The Anthony Mackie-led vehicle, which is the fourth Captain America film and 35th MCU film overall, managed to exceed somewhat meager box office projections, however, its reception with both critics and audiences isn't as definitive a victory. The film is currently sitting at 51% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and has earned a B- CinemaScore, which is among some franchise lows for Marvel.According to exclusive reports from Deadline, the Mike Flanagan-penned, solo Clayface film seems to be on track to meet its targeted September 2026 release, with DC leadership set to hear pitches from potential filmmakers next week. Two noteworthy names rising to the top as candidates to helm the rumored horror-tragedy include Speak No Evil's James Watkins and Truth or Dare's Jeff Wadlow – with the expectation that casting will quickly follow suit once a director is locked-in. James Gunn has described the film as a DCU project, but it is still unclear whether it will connect to any existing projects or continuity. Christopher Nolan's next film for Universal, The Odyssey, has assembled an understandably stacked cast that includes the likes of Tom Holland, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong'o and Jon Bernthal to name a few; now Mia Goth has joined the cast in an undisclosed role, while Matt Damon's role has finally officially been revealed to the title of role of Odysseus as announced via a photo shared from the film's X account.

The series will return this summer.Deadline's sources say Netflix is developing a live-action Dungeons & Dragons series titled The Forgotten Realms.

The project has no director attached yet.Deadline has learned that Denis Villeneuve is currently planning to film Dune 3 this summer and a team has been in pre-production on the film for quite some time. The trade also confirmed that the third film will adapt Frank Herbert's sequel novel Dune: Messiah and will complete Paul Atreides' story.

Dune Part 2 had a lot to live up to after the success of Dune Part 1. The sequel has a bunch of new audio challenges to solve, as it is about as epic a film as there has ever been.

Whitey Saves the Day, Jake Won't Go Down, The Beatles Break Up, & More This week Mr. Chavez & I return to a project that began in the middle of last year, releasing an episode recorded many months ago, and exploring the first 500 shows of WatchThis W/RickRamos. It's taken some time to get back to this, but we find ourselves returning to Memory Lane and plan on spending the next few months peppering the podcast with our reflections on what has come before; what it meant then, what it means now, and what it may mean in the future. A whole lot to unwrap, but we're having a great time doing it. This week reflections on: Denis Villeneuve's Dune, Scorsese's Raging Bull, Hitchcock's Rear Window, and Peter Jackson's The Beatles: Get Back. The opinions are as strong as ever.

This week, Jason and Brian dive into the chaos surrounding Elon Musk's growing influence in government tech, with young engineers playing key roles in his takeover. DOGE employees are being ordered off Slack, USAID is crumbling, and Musk's war with U.S. officials rages on. Meanwhile, AI takes center stage with the EU banning high-risk systems, DeepSeek's security concerns, and Amazon throwing down $100 billion on AI advancements. Big Tech moves are equally absurd—Google is now open to AI-powered weapons, Meta might scrap risky AI models, and Tesla is struggling in Europe thanks to Elon's latest blunders. Meanwhile, states are rushing to pour taxpayer money into so-called “strategic cryptocurrency reserves.”In entertainment, The Devil May Cry anime's ridiculous theme song is a standout, Mythic Quest returns, and Beast Games looks promising. AI controversially helped The Beatles score a Grammy, and Denis Villeneuve is making Dune 3 because, well, fans demanded it. Over in reboot land, Sarah Michelle Gellar may return for a Buffy revival on Hulu with Chloé Zhao at the helm, while Neil Gaiman finds himself in serious legal trouble. Gadget fans get a look at the Anker Zolo charger, a Google search trick to dodge AI summaries, and Apple's latest social feature. Also, say goodbye to Apple's AR glasses before they even had a chance to shine.Dave Bittner joins The Dark Side segment with updates on cybersecurity, including a wave of ransomware payment refusals and the Andersons' infamous eviction from Disneyland's most exclusive club. Pirates in China, Disney park music, and tracking yourself via in-app ads round out the discussion.

Dune: Prophecy, the six-episode prequel series to the Dune films, now streaming on Max, delves into the origins of the Bene Gesserit. The series is set 10,000 years before the events of the movies. Bringing this ancient future to life was just one of the challenges faced by cinematographer Pierre Gill, CSC, a veteran of science fiction and period pieces alike. Pierre, who has a deep affinity for the sci-fi genre, sees it as a close cousin to historical dramas. “It's like another type of period piece,” he explains, citing the importance of costumes, lighting, and set design in creating an immersive world. His experience in science fiction is extensive, having served as additional and second unit cinematographer on Denis Villeneuve's Dune, Arrival, and Blade Runner 2049. This prior experience proved invaluable for Dune: Prophecy. “On Dune: Prophecy, the challenge is there's not really a lot of light source in the concept of the universe,” Pierre notes. The goal was to respect the established aesthetic of Villeneuve's Dune, avoiding an overabundance of typical sci-fi lighting. During his initial interview for the series, Pierre emphasized his understanding of the Dune look, a perspective informed by his work on the first film. He felt the series should align with the films, potentially even enhancing viewers' appreciation of the cinematic universe. However, Pierre was also determined to bring his own artistic vision to the project. “At the same time,” he admits, “it's difficult because as a cinematographer, I don't want to recreate what Greig Fraser, the master, did. I don't want to copy him.” Pierre's approach for Prophecy involved strong, wide shots with splashes of bold color. After extensive lens and camera testing, Pierre chose to shoot with the Arri Alexa 35. He also used two Steadicams to maximize efficiency during the action-packed shoot. Pierre favored a centered camera, even in close-ups, and faced the significant hurdle of lighting the massive sets. Time constraints limited pre-lighting opportunities, forcing Pierre to find innovative solutions. He employed mobile softboxes and book lighting to sculpt the actors' faces, creating soft bounce light. The presence of ceilings on some of the sets allowed for lower camera angles and the inclusion of more background detail. He was also able to use many practical lighting sources throughout the set. Dune: Prophecy has been picked up for a second season and Pierre is excited to explore the Dune universe further. “Season 2 will be even more powerful, I think,” he predicts.

Denis Villeneuve's massive sci-fi epic “Dune: Part Two” is up for best picture at the Oscars this year. Last year, around the film's Canadian premiere, the Quebecois filmmaker joined Tom Power to discuss his vision for the second installment, the challenges of shooting in the intense heat of the desert, and how politics and religion in Quebec play into the film more than you might think.

The Oscar nominations are finally here! The usual suspects made the cut, and Dune: Part Two landed a Best Picture nomination—but Denis Villeneuve was snubbed, as many predicted. Could Dune pull off an upset and take home the top prize? We break down all the Oscar nominees, including how Emilia Pérez leads the 2025 Academy Awards nominations with a record-breaking 13 nods, surpassing Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Roma. Following close behind are The Brutalist and Wicked, each securing 10 nominations. Other top contenders include A Complete Unknown and Conclave, both earning eight nods. These films will compete for Best Picture alongside Anora, Dune: Part Two, I'm Still Here, Nickel Boys, and The Substance. Big news in the acting categories as Demi Moore and Isabella Rossellini land their first-ever nominations, while Karla Sofía Gascón makes history as the first openly transgender performer to be nominated for Best Actress. Plus, Netflix leads all studios with 16 nominations. On today's show, we're diving deep into all the major categories, surprises, and snubs. Plus, big news outside the Oscars—Jon Bernthal joins The Odyssey, Robert Eggers takes on a werewolf movie, and more updates on The White Lotus.
