The Diplomat: The James Bond Clause (2023)
Nothing new
In recent years, I think it would not be wrong to talk about a great Hollywood inability to produce or production constipation. Repetitive subjects, remakes, films which filled with visual effects where the content isn't very important, a western hypocrisy -on a high horse- style, films/series in which rich male producers/directors pretend to address feminist issues or in which they liberate female characters, etc.
I jumped straight to the end of the last episode without watching the last 4. From the first episode, I saw that the simpleminded pampered British boy was trying to do something like just to save his own a* Maybe that was what the firm/producers/writers of this serie, etc. Exactly wanted to create. The British screw up, the Americans always clean up. Another series full of cults and stereotypes.
We are so bored with this invincible, intelligent, sensible, democracy-loving America, which has learnt the lessons of the past, but cannot give anything to its poor people.
Dune: Part Two (2024)
A Fedaykin Story from Mesopotamia with visual effects
The impact of the first film was so great that I guess I expected the same from the second film. It was definitely a disappointment.
Dune 2 gives us a story that blends a little bit of Nazi and a little bit of Hassan Sabbah story, sauced with super visual effects. Not to mention the drug-addled "Fedaykin" who are obliged to reach the "green paradise" promised by Sabbah.
Paul Atreidis, who has at the end become himself a fundamentalist, begins a war to bring the imperialists to their knees, a war that even he himself does not wholeheartedly believe in.
Well, it's not about revenge, it's not about me being the messiah, it's about what: green paradise!?
If the oppressor has tyranny, so then we have a green paradise?!
Even if our leader doesn't believe it!
