I prefer the Robert Redford version. Cool, handsome,mysterious.

Just bought a copy of the 1949 version. Macdonald Carey reminds me too much of Nicholas Cage, lol. It's interesting to see the different spin some of the lines get. I'd say my chief complaint so far is that the pacing is off. Things move and escalate too quickly. There's no mystery to Gatsby's past or his relationship with Daisy. No big reveal. Even the meeting in the clip is undermined by the fact that it's how we're introduced to Nick, not Gatsby (we'd already met him and heard about his relationship with Daisy before he ever shows up). Interesting to see "The Maltese Falcon's" Wilmer Cook show up to play Klipspringer (a piano-playing gangster) in this one. Pretty big rewriting on some of the scenes, too.

Having studied literature and film and taught them for the past 25 years, I long ago came to the conclusion that "faithfulness to the book" is not the "plus" that people seem to think it is. You have to go with the strength of the medium you're using when you're making an adaptation of a preexisting work. A lot of what makes the book so special is the quality and character of Nick's narrative voice. That's unsuitable for film. Film is an inherently visual/auditory medium, so if you're making one, lean into that HARD, and make no apologies for it.

2013 = Cartoon Gatsby, and don't even try to compare Leo's smile to Bob Redford's. 2013 did get Tom and Catherine right.

Leo had a great introduction, but I just don’t see him a Gatsby. I personally preferred the way Robert played him, something about it felt better. Besides, I’m biased since I can’t stand how artsy the Leo one is.

1:55 LMFAO

The costumes in this version were outstanding. And The Children of Dune they got even more acting talent for the mim series.

Wait there was guns in dune?

neve underestimate a child...😑😑

that child is pure evil (irl too🤕🤕

love that cheap camera shaking effect at the end🤪🤪

Is this a cut scene from the Van Damme Street fighter movie?

Not too far off from Beast Wars, Roughnecks and Dinotopia

This Feyd is as intimidating as a high school bully

This version of Alia bothers the f out of me. Yikes that voice is not good lol

00:29 me and the boys pulling up to see Dune 2 😂

I'll always love the biting off more than it can chew vibe for basic cable science fiction.

Feyd fights Muad'Dib and losses.

Alia kills the Baron who is her maternal grandfather.

Already watched Dune part 2 in the theaters. Can't wait to have it released online.

Let the storm have what it can take …

And people really gonna be out here saying this is better than Dune Part 2 😑

Honestly, it's a damn shame they didn't do God Emperor of Dune. I would loved to have seen what the heck James McAvoy's Leto II worm body would have looked like.

Sci-fi should do a re-run

Good acting!

Dune 2024: The empire underestimated the people they were oppressing and they used the might of the worms to cripple an entire militia. Dune 2000: Thank you Mr Worm for taking us to the battle bye we love you

I loved the bit in the book that describes the dead Baron still floating in the air. I was disappointed they changed that in the new film.

Bro wtf are those hats, I’m guessing that’s the Bene Gesserit😂

I like how the emperor looks like in the books descrpide, 80years old but still like eary 40s

Ok but low key, I prefer the panic in the imperial hall and the Bene Gesserit being like "fuck all y'all, we'll catch the reruns"

It's not very good, but at least the director did try to show how they got down off of the worm.

Bert Large really let power and money go to his head!

Sure, the whole budget for the 2000 miniseries was about what the Villeneuve 2024 version allocated for one lunch during shooting, but i really liked the look of the ornithopters, the Harkonnen fighters and the Sardaukar uniforms.

Those them age of empires level graphics

Still better than dune 2024 😂😂

This series was actually good although visually it was over the top. As far as telling the complete story and trying to stick to the book, it was good.

Everytime i watched this series, i remember those CGI RTS FMV cutscenes in Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri and Dune 2000

For 2000, this was pretty good though. especially for TV

The one from the 80s genuinely looks better with more work that the had to do

Don't worry kiddo, he'll be back

I just realized, Feyd is right there. Why's he so confused when Paul calls him "cousin"? He really should have suspected something after hearing Alia call the baron her grandfather.

This miniseries was not without its good points, I must admit. HOWEVER, I just can't watch this scene without thinking one thing: "WHERE'S THE DAMNED BATTLE PUG?!"

Why bother with the remake? This is perfect

At least this version was faithful to the books. No empowered Chani

This show kicks ass. Only dune adaptation that actually captured the political scope of the original material.

As it was written!

wtf is with the karate kid outfit

If the Harkonnen and the Sardaukar have guns. Why on Arrakis did they run at the Fremen, instead of just shooting them from a distance?

No comparison to Kyle McLachlan Dune of 1984.

I love how everyone in this version of Dune has a weird hat.
