Dune: Part Two

It still counts, because it’s still in theaters

Welcome back to the show!

Back from a long hiatus, and finally entering the wide world of video, Jordan and CJ belatedly cover one of the biggest sequels of the decade.

In this episode...

  • Jordan shares his new favorite non-movie-related hobby

  • CJ finds buried treasure on Disney+

  • How reading the book affects the experience of watching the movie (Jordan read it, CJ didn’t)

  • Politics, religions, prophecy, tyranny

  • Who’s movie is this anyway?

  • How about that ending tho

  • The difference between fan service and great writing

Some Business

From now on, you can expect a new episode of Nerd Critic every two weeks. Generally, we won’t be covering movies we’re guaranteed to dislike. Who has the time?

When we decided to host this show on Substack, it was because we wanted to make it easier to connect with you. Now that we’ll be back on a regular schedule, we hope you’ll make some use of the comment section. You can tell us what you think we got right, and what we got so wrong you wonder how people so stupid can even feed themselves.

Also, please feel free to drop a question, and we’ll do our best to answer it in a future episode.

Coming Up...

In two weeks, we’ll cover The Fall Guy.

After that, we’ll see! If you have some suggestions, we’d love to hear them.

(Is it obvious how desperate we are for you to talk to us?)

Subscribers are 100% more likely to transcend the bonds of space and time.
