WOW!

Children of Dune is SO BAD!

And I don’t mean bad as in ‘bad ass’. I mean bad as in ‘train wreck horrible.’

I just forced myself to watch 45 minutes of it (the promos looked interesting,) and brother it has been a true struggle. If I hear anyone say “Fear is the mindkiller” one more time, I might just take a sledgehammer to my TV.

The characters are transparent and unlikable, the story is totally boring, and the special effects look cheap. Unless you were like some big Dune fanatic who read all the books and memorized all the minutia of the Dune universe, I don’t see how there’s any way you could possibly enjoy this miniseries.
