Did anyone ever play the Dune game? It was good.

 

acousticrock87 02.21.2009 09:44 PM

I've honestly never seen (or read) Dune, but I'm sure it's better than Tremors.

Actually, I think I just decided what I'm renting tonight.

fucking graboids are pre-cambrian, that is ancient

Comparing Dune to Tremors is like comparing 2001 Space Odyssey to Spaceballs.

Actually I think it was Dune 2000 that I played. Does that picture like it could be Dune 2000?

pbradley 02.22.2009 01:36 PM

Yeah, that looks like Dune 2000

MAY HIS PASSAGE CLEANSE THE WORLD
MAY HE KEEP THE WORLD FOR HIS PEOPLE


nicfit, what a silly question to ask. you can't fuck with Shai-Halud.

and yes, the original Dune game was good (on the Sega Genesis). it was the predecessor of Command and Conquer.

[geek mode]

Actually, the predecessor of Command and Conquer was called Dune II

The first Dune was more of an adventure game

phoenix 02.22.2009 10:21 PM

pbradley 02.22.2009 10:35 PM

man, I think I just dropped a shai-hulud into the water of life if you know what I mean

pokkeherrie 02.23.2009 02:20 AM

I had to google what graboids are... not sure now if I've ever even seen Tremors.

pbradley 02.23.2009 02:49 AM

film poster graboid
 


actual in-movie graboid

 



there are also "shriekers" and "ass-blasters" which even more retarded

pokkeherrie 02.23.2009 03:03 AM

I call shenanigans!

Seriously, I'd ask my money back if they'd show me that poster at the cinema and then put me up with that papier-mâché wurm instead.

I don't think this is THAT unfair..
Some people like things more "down to earth" (ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha hope someone will get this) and to others size doesn't matter (ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha again).

I get the fascination given by the whole dune universe, but still... I did not vote yet.

David Lynch needs to release his true Director's Cut of Dune... and stat.

In the meantime, Tremors is a fun movie. you guys are just jealous

Lurker 02.23.2009 06:16 PM

Tremors is great.

This poll will close on 07.09.2036 at 03:30 PM , hurry up!

dirty bunny 07.28.2009 03:55 PM

Dune was a pretty great book. But I loved Tremors too, so I'm on the fence. Typical.

HaydenAsche 07.28.2009 04:00 PM

I love Tremors. Greatest cheesy low-budget cast series of terribly uninspired scifi movies ever.

jerf 07.28.2009 04:02 PM

god, tremors was one of my favorite movies when i was a kid. what a great movie haha.

graboids ftw.

terriblecanyons 07.28.2009 04:27 PM

Assblasters? Sounds like a porno film.
