DUNE

Hey Rico, have you ever done a podcast covering DUNE? For the life of me I can't remember. Lot's of good material to mine there.

That would be a good topic.  Although I cannot say that I loved the movie, the books are excellent.  I hated the way they made Baron Harkonnen in the movie.  I always pictured him as a more sinister Orson Welles.

I didn't get that at all reading the books.

No - not podcasted on it before.  Nice idea.  Loved the first few books and some of the filmed stuff.

From the books, I imagined him similar to the Sci Fi Mini-series Baron. I thought the David Lynch Baron was really disturbing which worked great too, just different from the book.
