The spice must flow!
Hipster & The Nerd travels to the desert world of Arrakis to discuss both film adaptations of the classic novel, Dune! Join Chris and Brian as they discuss the bizarre story choices and pacing, casting decisions, and production history that make the 1984 David Lynch version a disappointing but compelling oddity. Then, stick around as they dive into the expanded plot, excellent cast, brilliant design work, fantastic score, and everything else in between that makes Denis Villeneuve's 2021 adaptation one of the best films of the year. With all this plus Dune universe lore dumps and speculation on the future of the franchise, this is one episode you don't want to miss!
