    I didn’t actually watch any other Lynch movie.

    Then you absolutely should imo. Lynch is legendary for a reason. I recommend Mulholland Drive, Wild at Heart and Eraserhead. Just know that Eraserhead is very creepy.

    I played the Lynch movie inspired Dune 2000 as a kid

    Me too! It was my first rts, which I played on my dads 386 :D

    And what could be more cheesy than Captain Picard carrying a Pug into battle?

    I get it somehow - at least as a joke - but stuff like this is exactly why I am personally not a fan of Lynch´s Dune. There simply are no pugs in the book and I will never get why someone would add weird stuff like that to a serious epic that takes place in one of the most deep and well thought through sci-fi universes ever created by an author. The Villeneuve movie does not capture the sheer depth of Herberts universe but at least he did not make up weird additional stuff that feels completely random. Yes, I admit it, I am a Frank Herbert fanboy and whenever I feel his vision is not respected I react like an angry child.

    Anyways, I’m thinking of seeing the double feature of this Dune movie in the cinema, as I didn’t manage to catch the first one.

    That´s great, have fun my dude!
