You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

He hasn’t made a movie worth watching in decades. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Hah. Well, maybe he needs a "passion" project like this one. Sometimes, I can appreciate a movie or other production for all the effort that went into it, even if I really don't enjoy it. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

I don't think he has made anything in decades (well wine I guess.) But, he has been pretty quite since the early 2000s I think. |

HIs filmography has been a bit sparse for a while. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Ford_Coppola#Filmography |

| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12535 | They rereleased Dune Part One in theaters this weekend before Part Two comes out next month. I had only watched it once when it originally came out. Figured I should refresh my memory before Part Two so I went and saw it in IMAX last night and liked it so much better than the first time. Afterwards they showed an extended clip from Part Two (Paul’s first time riding a sandworm) and it was so well done it gave me chills. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | A lot of fans of the books were really disappointed with the earlier attempts at bringing Dune to the screen. Glad these versions seem to be working. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12535 | I was just browsing YouTube and this came up. It’s the exact preview they showed last night. Not the same experience watching it on YouTube compared to IMAX… “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

| OnceDear Member since: Nov 21, 2017 Threads: 11 Posts: 1510 | Watched Wonka with the wife. We shrugged a bit at first, but after 20 mins or so, suspended disbelief and enjoyed it for what it was. Better that the Johnny Depp offering and when watched as though it were a stage play, it hit the mark. Not exactly intellectual. So bite me $:o) A couple of catchy tunes. |
