Dune: Prophecy - Missed Potential

[@ANTIStraussian]

I needed more space stuff and space ships. You only really see them land as scene transitions. And since everything else is castles and swords. Its basically game of thrones but instead of a group of horses running toward a city its a ship landing at a port.

have you read dune at all? it has zero 'space action'

[@ANTIStraussian]

@mihkeltroost8769 not action action. I want people in ships entering orbit and they are walking around a ship and you see space outside the window. If you edit out the ships landing and taking off scenes this show would be indistinguishable from game of thrones. They use swords too lol

Great review, couldn't agree more. To add to it, I didn't like how similar and therefore developed the universe looked like only some decades after the Butlerian Jihad, but I guess that's a fault Brian Herbert's books? Idk I haven't read them.

Humanities development leveled off and stayed the same.

Humanity stagnating is a major part of the story pre Paul!

[@ANTIStraussian]

@maximilianek795 yhat seems realistic to me, even though we went from horses to cars to space shuttle and planes quickly. I can see us dinking around in cars with handheld cell phones on 2150.

I don’t understand the hate for this show. It was great. Bummer you didn’t care for it, but seems it hit the mark since it’s getting a second season.

I couldn't wait for it to be over.
