They will just selectively enforce it

Who are the "both sides" in this case, China and Taiwan?

I remember being perplexed a few years back when a coworker started talking to me about "imgur posts" and "imgur comments". I was like, "the image hosting site?"

So weird

She's Paul's everything

Literally her only trait that I can remember.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you're upset that he improved Chani? Or do you just prefer 1 dimensional women characters who are defined entirely by their man?

11/22/63 was pretty solid

To be completely honest, Herbert's Chani was pretty forgettable. Admittedly, it's been a very long time since I've read anything Dune, but I truly cannot remember anything memorable about Chani in the books...

Still better than whatever garbage Jodorowsky was going to put out. That's right, I said it.

Dude didn't even read Dune, and bragged about it. Could have made an awesome sci-fi film, but instead had to co-opt a classic novel

It's not a show that I wait for with bated breath, but I will usually watch the episodes and they're alright. As someone who only read part of the first book, there's nothing there to be ruined for me.

The Mule stuff is kind of interesting. I think the genetic dynasty stuff is the coolest part, and apparently that wasn't even in the books.

Read a fucking history book if you think this is a distraction.

Maybe those hoodies that fuck with camera sensors so they can't take photos of your face?
