You seem quite obsessed with such "culturally irrelevant movie".
I keep seeing threads about it, over here.

Because sci fi has been irrelevant for the past 10 years. Don't even try and say superhero movies are sci fi either

This, itโ€™s technically very well made, but itโ€™s lack charm, wit, emotional connection, there are too many big names attached and the leads are like children, their performances have no nuance and they are only there for โ€˜looksโ€™.

It has and its culture relevance will further increase. You're witnessing the downfall of the American-Israeli empire in real time and think Dune isn't relevant? How stupid are you?

Its many reasons
>No relatable protagonists
>Too serious of a show
>Millenials are too old to push a movie to pop culture status, and zoomers/alphas just dont care about movies that much
>Hollywood has lost a huge part of its glamour
>Social media are more addictive than movies

Nothing has anymore. But compared to other movies (and Tv shows, video games, books, etc.) DUNC had a good run and made quite the impression.

It replaces Lynch's version and the miniseries in the narrative (meaning, when I say Paul Atreides, most people will think Timmy Chamalamet, not Kyle McLachlan or Alec Newman). And autistics have an extremely hard time coping when something that's important to them gets changed. They can mace employees of video game stores over such things.

The books already left their mark on basically all of scifi that came after them.
Logically, the 2nd movie adaptation of those books 60 years later isn't gonna have the same impact anymore when the impact already unfolded

It still was the first introduction to the fantasy genre for millions of people and left its mark on everything thereafter vaguely to do with famtasy.
People who wouldn't have touched a fantasy novel ever still watched it and this if course influenced how the genre is perceived and then created.

Look, I like fantasy. I really do. And I also like LotR. What you seem to overlook is that most popular fantasy is pure cattle slop and nothing but escapism. People may read fantasy but to what end?

Amongst zoomers at least it was decently memed. People still send the lissan al ghaib clip into group chats and it's still water cooler conversation occasionally. Will it have the cultural relevancy of something like the Dark Knight Trilogy? Probably not but with a popular actor that's semi-regularly in the spotlight such as the appearances at the Knicks games and upcoming news of Dune Messiah releasing next year, I expect this to remain in public conversation for the next year at least, at least until the film comes out, if it flops then that's the end but if they end it on a high note it will probably be one of the only good trilogies anyone born past the 2000s will remember. Admittedly that's partly due to the fact no one else seems to have the urgency to actually complete a trilogy in a short period of time, might The Batman have been more iconic, film for film sure, but we will probably never see a second film, let alone a trilogy. It's a good film series so far, could it be better, 100%, but in the era of mediocrity we currently reside in, you can't call it shit.

Of course it does. The books are well written and went on to inspire the creation of Star Wars.

Yeah, it's almost like they did the spice silos in the movie the way they did as an inside joke to people who knew the game.
Or, and here's a really wild idea, they did it because THAT'S HOW YOU'D CONSTRUCT SPICE SILOS IN REAL LIFE.

I really wish they'd kept in the idea that a lasgun hitting a shield caused a thermonuclear explosion. It was the reasons they didn't have lasers everywhere in Dune.

Other versions of Dune already exist, so it has to compare favorably to them and not just to whatever hollyweird has shit out over the past decade.
