And I love them both for different reasons. After leaving Denis’ Dune Part 2, I said that “Dune is what Star Wars thinks it is.” But Star Wars hit at just the right time in just the right way. It is unique enough to stand on its own. If the argument is that Dune deserves some credit for Star Wars’ cultural impact, then yeah you probably have a point! But if it’s that Dune deserves all the credit that Star Wars gets, well that’s like saying an athlete can’t be considered iconic in his own right because he copied some moves from a player that came before him. Or that Phil Jackson can’t be credited with the Triangle offense even though he mastered and popularized it.

Ok but one is in the story because it’s an inconsequential planet and the other is central to the intergalactic economics and politics. The fact you’d have to explain the inspiration is a sign that the product of inspiration had a greater “cultural impact” than the original.

“dune will never have the cultural impact of star wars” I’m gonna hold your hand while I explain to you why Tatooine looks like that.

@Matthew_Gaskin Think it’s despicable and blasphemous, but his beliefs about who Jesus is are obviously way out of line with mine and the rest of the Christian half of Judeo-Christian. So not super surprising.

@shellynorr Alright so I sincerely hope the fact I just had to speak to you like someone that started watching him four days ago enlightens you to the fact that you’re acting like you don’t really know lol

@shellynorr I mean nobody said he had KD’s consistency as a scorer lol. But if you watch long enough without trying to form an opinion every game it trying to confirm your bias, you’ll realize he’s definitely got a lot of upside and when he’s on his game —which is probably about 60% of the
