  I’m in the “both” camp I like the cinematography of the 2021 edition, and Hans Zimmer really did a great score they make it look and sound futuristic and cool, but you need to read the book first as they skip a lot of the plot.

  But the 1984 edition is still good, sometimes I start humming the main score and then I know it’s time for a rewatch.

    I loved “the voice” effects of the 84 version. The new “voice” sucked.

    Something about the resonating/reversing sound effect of the original felt so cool. Like a nagging command or idea that just bounces around in your head and amplifies with its harmonic frequency until it truly compels the listener.

    I like the 1984 up to about 2/3 of it. After that it feels rushed and gets pretty confusing. I also really dislike the shield generator effects.

        I read it a few years ago and to me it was a difficult read. Not that I didn’t like it but in my mind it didn’t resemble the movie very much.

    That’s definitely a legit take, but it seems like the joke of the meme is the 84 version is bad, and that’s what makes me bristle.

  It seriously got fucked over by coming out the same time as star wars.

    I’m not old enough to have any skin in that game, but I definitely go back to it more often than the original trilogy.

      You’re right. I’m tripping. Don’t know how I got that idea

      Was it an RTS from the people who made command and conquer?

        I’m pretty sure Westwood Studio used Dune II as a stepping stone to make C&C

  It’s an absolute classic.

    OP should have turned Zendai into Tim. Then the meme would be really funny.
