there’s no rule that says a movie has to adhere to anything EU-related

Well, technically there is. (To a certain degree anyway).

More a guideline than actual rule.

True. All I meant is that they can’t contradict it.

Haven’t the movies already contradicted the nuEU? That’s what I’ve heard regarding TLJ and the TFA novelization.

What about vaporwave?

Never really listened to any.

You’re too hard on yourself.

I’ve only seen Dune. It sucked, but I appreciated some of the style, so it didn’t ruin Lynch for me or anything.

Dune fails as a David Lynch movie and as an adaptation of the novel. It’s almost impressive.

Don’t let that put you off reading the book, or (assuming it’s good) seeing Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming adaptation when it materializes.

It’s long overdue for Peter Jackson-style big update.

Denis Villeneuve (director of Blade Runner 2049, Arrival, Sicario, etc.) is making the remake. Word is it’ll be two movies. I can’t wait!

I think you need a minimum of three four-hour length films to do Dune justice, but we’ll see.

I wonder if six two-hour films work then, or would that require such radically different pacing and structure than appropriate for Dune that it would not work?

The book consists of three sections. I see no reason to divide the sections.

To Canon or Not To Canon...
Time

I’ve been thinking about the Evil Dead franchise lately. I’ve reached the conclusion that I hold to three different personal canons.

CANON #1 (SUPERCUT CANON)

In this canon, all three movies exist in one continuity. The Evil Dead is entirely canon, except for the part where Linda rises from her grave and Ash chops her head off. The Evil Dead II is entirely canon, except for the “recap”, the bridge scene, and the ending. As for Army of Darkness, I consider the Dark Horse comic adaptation more canon than the movie itself, though I wholeheartedly stick with the “hail to the king” ending.

Neither Ash vs. Evil Dead or any of the expanded universe stuff exists in this continuity.

CANON #2 (DELUSION CANON)

In this canon, Ash was driven insane by his experiences in The Evil Dead and subsequently committed to an asylum, where he spent the following decades imagining the events of Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness (both versions), Ash vs. Evil Dead, etc.

CANON #3 (EQUAL BUT SEPARATE CANON)

The Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, and both versions of Army of Darkness exist in four separate universes.
