The new Dune is so artificially slow and full of itself. The old one with Picard and Mr. Mayor is so much more watchable for me and I genuinely love it. The new Blade Runner did the same thing, being slow for the sake of being slow does not make it deep or philosophical it just makes it boring

I feel the same way, having just left Dune 2 an hour ago. It feels every bit a long as its four hour run time.

Oddly, I enjoy Lawrence of Arabia despite it also having long shots of desert.

Jesus. Part two is FOUR HOURS? That’s bonkers.

It’s 2 hours and 46 minutes.

Still, it did feel unnecessarily long, though.
