Dune: Part Two (2024)
Depressing rendition, but...
Firstly, I am biased as heck from my love of Frank Herbert's books. Mostly the original works, but also the continuation by his son and Mr. Anderson. The most recent rendition of the Dune universe is for your average uneducated childlike modern human, which is quite amusingly ironic given the content of the novels. This movie is for teens and adults who never graduated from those years, which is nothing less than a betrayal of the story meant to be told. But perhaps the standard Hollywood butchery of quality repurposed for popularity will, in this case, encourage a few to read and be enlightened. It may be delusional, but I can hope.
Stargate: Atlantis: The Daedalus Variations (2008)
Ew...
I really wanted to enjoy this Stargate Atlantis episode becuase I enjoy good sci-fi story explorations. Unfortunately, this is another story that can only be created by delusional people. Nonsensical plot, with big enough holes to drive a tank through, though I guess that's par for the course with SG Atlantis. The writers and producers made this show sooo unnecessarily incomplete with half thought out storylines they never even try to resolve. From Rainbow's story arc, to dozen or so others. That others rated this episode so high informs on the general lack of quality to come from the minds of moons and to entertain the same.
