I know exactly what Chris is talking about, regarding how I watched movies back in the day on TV. In Sweden, back in the day, we only had 2 TV channels, and on saturday they showed a movie. As Chris said, the whole family was watching, it was big thing. That's how I, as a kid, watched all the old classics.

I hate the idea that Gladiator was just a brainless popcorn flick that didn't deserve its Oscar awards.

The idea of a Bene Gesserit show was always going to be bad regardless of how woke it is. It's a show about sneaky, elderly women using their shrill Voices to get what they want. There's nothing dramatic about that kind of story because they have a superpower your average person can't resist and everyone is terrified of them because they're successful assassins allowed to kill with impunity. That's why they're an antagonist in the original story.
